Chapter 16 - Olivia loses the microphone
Olivia’s employer did not fire her.
She worked in corporate event planning.
The baby-shower video reached coworkers.
Embarrassing.
The company issued no public statement.
She took maternity leave.
Returned later.
Some clients knew.
Most did not care after a few months.
The internet wanted her ruined.
Reality moved on.
I preferred reality.
Her real consequence was family.
Owen? No child before Sophie.
Our cousins stopped inviting her automatically.
Julia cut contact.
Aunt Meredith told her:
“Mocking Emily’s miscarriage was cruelty.”
Olivia replied:
“She had been judging my pregnancy for months.”
False.
Meredith asked for examples.
Olivia had none.
Without Karen controlling the room, Olivia discovered that accusation needed nouns too.
She started therapy.
Not court ordered.
According to Daniel? No.

According to her own later letter.
Good.
