Mia offered an awkward smile. "Mrs. Quilter, I'll go wash some fruits."She found an excuse to step out of the hospital room, finally exhaling a sigh of relief. The preceding conversation had left her feeling slightly overwhelmed.As Mia exited, Felix turned to Janice, questioning, "Mom, why did you bombard Mia with so many questions? She's a bit sensitive, you know.""Felix, dear, don't you understand? If I don't address these matters now and establish some boundaries, how can I be her future mother-in-law?"You mentioned Mia's remarkable talents, didn't you? If I don't establish my stance, she might become overly assertive, especially with you."Felix sighed, expressing a sense of helplessness. "Mom, you're overthinking. Mia isn't that kind of person.""Felix, I'm looking out for your well-being here. Your recent injury happened because of Mia, and I can't shake the feeling that she might have feelings for you."If I don't take the initiative and play matchmaker, when will you find t

Haunted by her canceled engagement, Maya found sleep elusive, her thoughts consumed by anger.Everything had been proceeding smoothly until that fateful day, marked by unforeseen events that ultimately led to the cancellation of her engagement.Raising an eyebrow, Connor questioned, "Because of me?""According to Timothy, your decision to perform surgery for Grandma Laura wasn't influenced by me!" Maya exclaimed.Clearing his throat, Connor nodded and replied, "You're correct. It's indeed not because of you."Upon hearing this response, Maya stared at him incredulously. "Connor, what are you saying?"If it's not because of me, are you implying that you're doing this surgery because of Timothy? Haven't you always disliked Timothy?""Yes.""If not because of me, then because of whom?" Maya had been investigating diligently, yet she hadn't unraveled anything, heightening the mystery of the situation.Remaining composed, Connor stated, "Maya, there are certain matters not worth delving to

Observing Dominic and Eva's solemn expressions, Mia couldn't help but wonder if they were about to delve into the recent kidnapping orchestrated by Bob and Mary.Feeling a bit uneasy, Mia obediently set down the bowl and asked, "Sure, what do you want to discuss?"Dominic spoke up. "Eva and I have been thinking about this for a while. Would you consider coming back to Nord City and living with us?"Eva, seated beside Mia, looked at her and Patricia reassuringly. "Don't worry, if you choose to return with us to Nord City, the entire family will move together."We'll make arrangements for James to be transferred to another hospital. Once in Nord City, everyone will be well taken care of."Upon hearing this, Mia instinctively glanced at Patricia, who appeared indifferent.Given that Mia was carrying Timothy's child, she did contemplate returning to Nord City for childbirth due to safety concerns.However, Patricia had spent her entire life in Bern City, and asking her to uproot herself co

Unexpectedly, Mia found herself face-to-face with Maya sooner than she had anticipated.The tension between them was unmistakable.With an air of triumph, Shelly interjected, "Mia, today's event is organized by Vista Properties, Maya's family conglomerate. She is in charge and will be delivering a speech later on."Maya also took on a condescending posture. She had yet to retaliate for the slap Mia gave her during their last encounter.Mia raised an eyebrow and retorted with an icy tone, simply saying, "Okay."Feeling dissatisfied, Shelly persisted in her threats, "Mia, you must be afraid, right? Let me make this clear. With Maya in charge, don't even think about securing any scholarships."Arching an eyebrow, Mia replied, "While I may not attach significant importance to that scholarship, Maya, given your role as the person overseeing this event, aren't you worried about the potential repercussions of orchestrating things covertly?"Maya's lips curled into a chilling smile. "Even if y

Upon revealing that, Mia couldn't help but notice the distinct change in Maya and Shelly's demeanor, gradually transforming into expressions of anger.Unable to contain her frustration, Shelly exclaimed, "Mia, how dare you manipulate us like this?"Mia responded with a smirk. "Indeed, you two were the unwitting pawns in my game. Is the truth too much for you to handle?"Shelly was on the verge of lashing out physically.With an air of nonchalance, Mia cautioned, "Consider your actions carefully. There's a crowd watching. If you choose to resort to physical aggression, have you thought about how you'll explain it?""I'll slap you if I feel like it. I don't need to explain myself to anyone."Nevertheless, Maya stepped in, holding Shelly back. "Let's go. I have important tasks to handle. Our time shouldn't be wasted on this confrontation."Mia made a valid point. Considering Shelly's status as a public figure at this event, an altercation could tarnish the entire affair.Maya found dealin
