Chapter 122
As Mia geared up for some much–needed rest, the unmistakable click of Wilhelmina’s heels echoed through
the room.
Without hesitation, Wilhelmina handed Mia a document and instructed, “Please ensure this reaches its
designated destination. Should the client express dissatisfaction, take the necessary steps to make
replacements.”
Mia skimmed the contents of the file before questioning, “Isn’t this something you should be handling?”
Wilhelmina retorted, “Indeed, it falls under my responsibilities. However, urgent matters demand my attention
at the moment.”
“Besides, considering you’ve been on duty throughout the entire weekend, it seems fitting for you to manage this. We can’t have someone merely drawing a salary without contributing, can we?” she said snidely.
With that, Wilhelmina briskly departed.
Mia sighed softly, thinking that once she completed this assignment, she could finally head home and rest.
She sipped from a cup of warm water, feeling its warmth spread through her, providing a sense of relief.
Hailing a taxi, Mia directed the driver to a luxurious villa complex.
At the designated house, she was greeted by a maid who opened the door.
“Hello, I’m from Elite Studio,” Mia introduced herself, “I’ve come to check if the homeowner is pleased with the
interior furnishings we provided.”
“Please, follow me,” the maid replied.
As Mia trailed behind, she stepped into a lavish living room. Instantly, her eyes were drawn to a radiant white
wedding dress displayed at the room’s center.
“Is this real?” Mia asked incredulously. “This stunning bridal gown is a masterpiece from Lulu Vuitton’s exclusive collection–a globally limited edition, with this being the sole piece.” •
With an air of pride, Shelly emerged, declaring, “This is the very wedding dress Maya selected for her
engagement.
“Isn’t it breathtaking? You’d need to toil your entire life just to afford a single diamond embellishment on it.”
When Mia saw Shelly, the pieces finally clicked, and she understood why Wilhelmina had urgently summoned her to the scene. Everything started to make sense.
Descending the staircase with a smile, Maya intervened, “Shelly, let’s not exaggerate. It’s just a dress.
“I intend to have a bespoke gown tailored for the actual wedding. This was merely a hasty choice given the circumstances.”
Gathering herself, Mia addressed Maya professionally, “Ms. Lane, are you content with the recent renovations?
+15 BONOS
Maya and Shelly seemed to be indulging in a display of extravagance.
A sense of unease crept over Mia, prompting her to avoid getting caught up in their antics.
Taking the documents from Mia, Maya remarked, “Tim and I have given this considerable thought. We’ve decided to relocate as a proactive measure, thus the choice to renovate a new residence.”
Mia kept her expression neutral, her eyes averting slightly.
Maya was taken aback by Mia’s nonchalant response, especially considering the significant effort she had put into gaining Timothy’s approval for their engagement.
She was convinced that many of the challenges and frustrations she’d encountered stemmed from Mia.
Yet, Mia’s behavior now seemed like a purposeful display of indifference.
