All Chapters of Scorned Wife No More: A Queen Pampered by Three Tycoons: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Mia slowly stood up. She could feel several gazes landing on her.Shelly looked at Maya in disbelief. "Has there been some sort of mistake, Maya? How can Mia win first place? Wasn't everyone saying that Wilhelmina's actually Zoe?"Earlier, Wilhelmina hadn't denied that she was Zoe—everyone had taken it as her admission that she was. But now, if the first-place winner was Mia, didn't that mean Mia was Zoe?Shelly was on the verge of a breakdown. How could this be? Mia was a peasant from the slums who knew nothing. How could she be Zoe, the renowned designer?Maya was close to losing control of her expression. She glanced at Timothy anxiously. As expected, he was looking at Mia.Timothy watched as Mia stood up from her seat in the second row. Her champagne-colored dress accentuated her smooth skin, and her face was alight with happiness. Even her eyes were shining.In this instant, she looked like she was glowing. She was nothing like the timid, lowly woman in his memories.But what surp

Mia had to admit that she'd done it on purpose. She held her trophy tightly when she noticed that Timothy's back was to her. It seemed he hadn't turned to look at her, nor was he bothered by her earlier actions.Mia retracted her gaze and caught Maya approaching them. She didn't seem to be looking at Mia, though. Her gaze was fixed on Liam. Did they know each other?Maya greeted Liam with a smile. "I didn't expect to run into you here."Liam sounded cool and distant. "The world can be a small place."Maya wanted to say something else, but Liam didn't give her the chance to. "Let's go, Mia."Mia didn't think there was any need for her to remain there. It would be good to head home earlier. She wasn't too used to wearing heels and almost twisted her ankle as she walked. Liam held her up by the arm. "Slow down.""Okay." She linked arms with him; it made her feel more secure. She didn't want to embarrass herself by slipping and falling.When they got to the entrance, the paparazzi swarmed

Mia felt a headache coming on when she saw the trending topic. She really didn't want to be known for this. But after checking out the trend, she realized there was only a photo of her and Liam walking into the venue. There weren't any photos of her face.She relaxed a little. It was fine as long as there weren't any photos of her. Still, what was up with the content? Why were people talking about how she and Liam had gotten together three years ago and were only just revealing their relationship?She supposed it was only to be expected of entertainment news. Her and Liam's names were the only real things in this whole mess—everything else had been made up.Mia explained everything to Gina. She told Gina how Liam was only a body double for Linden and that the paparazzi had gotten the wrong man.Then, she went out to buy a whole bunch of stuff. They were all gifts that she'd prepared for Dominic and Eva; they could bring the things back to Nord City.Mia looked at Liam. "Will the rumors

Shelly was still full of pent-up frustration. She hadn't had anywhere to vent it. To make matters worse, Laura had been singing Mia's praises. It had irritated her to no end.Wilhelmina said pointedly, "I saw her at a small studio there. It looked like she was there for an interview."Shelly sat up in bed, all traces of drowsiness gone. "I need more details. Give me the address, too."Wilhelmina gave her a quick rundown. After that, she turned to see Mia follow Felix out of his office. Felix announced, "We have a new member joining us today, everyone. Please give Mia a warm welcome!"Wilhelmina smirked. Mia had stolen her trophy and was even thinking of stealing the man she liked. How could she let Mia off the hook?…Mia officially started work the following day. She wanted to earn some money before she started her classes.The receptionist approached her. "Mia, there's a client asking for you.""Me?" Mia found this odd. It was her first day of work. Why would a client be looking for

A hint of mockery flashed in Mia's eyes as she looked at the order. She'd furnished every inch of the marital home with her heart, and a certain someone had disregarded it like it meant nothing. Now, they even wanted her to design a new home for her ex-husband and his first love!They'd crossed the line with this!It looked like they wouldn't let her off the hook; they were constantly trying to provoke her. Since backing down wouldn't resolve the problem, Mia would probably be better off facing them directly. As long as they weren't afraid of the consequences, what would she have to fear?Mia's eyes flashed coldly. She called the number indicated in the order. Heath's voice rang out awkwardly on the other end of the line. "Ahem. Mrs. Barrett.""You don't have to call me that now that we've signed the divorce papers. I'll cut to the chase—you guys are the ones behind that online order, right?"Heath nodded. "Yes.""I'll accept it, but I have a condition. I want to be paid tenfold," Mia
