Olivia found out about Fabian's acquaintance with Yale a while ago.
When the culprit behind Mason's assassination was yet to be known, there was a default risk regardless. Fabian's stance didn't matter.
Fortunately, Fabian had feelings for Marina.
After this surgery, not only could Marina kiss the wheelchair goodbye, but Marina and Fabian would also be bound to each other forever.
When Fabian later wished to set up the Heath family, Olivia had the leverage over him to bargain.
Marina couldn't continue her antics even after her legs recovered too.
The awful deeds Marina did could make a super long list.
She almost killed Olivia and Olivia's children, ruined Olivia's marriage, and chose not to save Chloe.
Marina's and Chloe's bone marrow were a match, but Marina let Chloe die for selfish reasons. Not to mention, Marina also used drugs to deteriorate Chloe's condition.
Jeff also died in Marina's hands, although indirectly.
For the past few years, Olivia had thought of many ways to take revenge. But the moment Jeff came to her mind, his love and upbringing, she couldn't bring herself to take it to the extreme.
It softened her up.
If he were still around, he wouldn't have wanted Marina to die at such a young age.
Olivia sighed as she figured that she couldn't become a ruthless person after all.
Although Marina need not depend on a wheelchair for her life thereafter, she would be bound with Fabian.
Olivia hoped that Marina would turn over a new leaf and become a good person.
Fabian wasn't foolish enough not to see Olivia's intention—she was trying to curry favor with him.
"I expect nothing less from you, Ms. Fordham. You're smart."
"So, your choice?"
"I think there will be a lot of opportunities for us to work together in the future."
