Olivia returned to her room, her mind spinning with Rachel's revelations and the depths of her betrayal. She couldn't afford to waste time dwelling on anger. She needed to act, and quickly. If she was going to turn this situation in her favor, she had to get Antonio on her side—even if only temporarily.

If she could frame her plea right, maybe she could manipulate his sense of duty. It wasn't ideal, but it was her best chance to sow distrust between him and Rachel.
