"Um..." The ball was now in the personnel's court because the Harris Group wasn't worried.

Tyler smiled at them. "Mr. Brandon. I'm afraid I'll need your help in pushing the holdouts. We don't have to develop this place."

Brandon nodded. "Okay, Mr. Tyler. We'll speak to them, but is it possible to pay the people who haven't signed more?"

Tyler thought about it. "We will provide additional compensation to those who did not sign in the third phase. Of course, it will not be generous to those in the second and first phases." Brandon said, "Okay, I'll get them to each take a step back."

"Thank you."

Olivia's appetite didn't improve after returning from the church, but she went to bed early.

Alisa wanted her to sleep early, so not only did she spray some essential oils that promoted sleep, but she also gave her previously hurt leg a massage.

The room was dimly lit.

Alisa stood at the door and left when she was sure Olivia was asleep.

Olivia did fall asleep, but two hours later, she dreamed of Ana lashing out at her and almost woke up screaming.

She sat in bed covered in sweat and looked around, but it was quiet and empty there.

She breathed heavily as her hand still grabbed onto the sheet, and then the horror in her eyes dissipated.

Olivia then laid back down and stayed awake all night.

The next morning, Alisa thought Olivia would be well-rested since she went to sleep early. She knocked on the door and said, "Ma'am."

There was no response, so she went in but saw Olivia balled up in bed. She quickly walked over to her. "You didn't sleep well?"

Alisa sat down on the corner of the bed, but Olivia didn't reply to her. She was so skinny it was painful to see.

The maid touched her forehead and realized her body was cold. How long had she been sitting there?

"Did you not sleep at all last night?"

Olivia nodded.

"That won't work." She was out of ideas, but after thinking, she said, "Let me make you something that can calm you down."

She then got up and wrapped Olivia up with a blanket.

Maisy sent someone to see how Olivia was doing, but Alisa didn't know what to say. After careful consideration, she admitted, "She only slept for two hours." Pearl was anxious. "She got a checkup and is fine. Why isn't she sleeping? Give her a little more time. If she's not feeling well, tell us immediately."
