Max Davies fell silent for a moment upon hearing the news of Olivia jumping off a building.
In Olivia's current situation, even if the Morelands don't pursue it, her life won't be easy. Moreover, being mentally ill, she can't be sentenced, so pursuing it is useless, at most it means sending Olivia to a mental hospital.

Before leaving, Olivia's parents made one last phone call to Max Davies asking for help, but Max still refused.
