Olivia avoided eye contact with Linda as she got into the car, her expression tensing up.
Adam didn't know what had happened, so he looked at Linda.
Taking a moment to steady her breath, Olivia instructed, "Drive slowly."
He nodded and said, "I will."
Without delay, he climbed into the car.
Linda watched as they drove away from the Harris Group.

Ana looked toward the door when the car pulled over.
Just as Olivia entered the living room, Ana approached Olivia and greeted her, "You're home? Where's the food container?"
"I left it at the office," Olivia replied, stopping in her tracks.
Naturally, Ana didn't doubt Olivia's honesty and refrained from criticism.
"You must be tired after being out all afternoon. Go rest," Ana suggested.
Without a glance, Olivia headed upstairs, prompting a smile from Ana.

Naomi called Tyler, anxious to know about Ana's call.
