Maya wore a triumphant smile, yet underneath, a sense of unease lingered as she glanced at Mia.
Addressing Shelly, Maya suggested, “Shelly, why not let her go? When we meet Timothy later, I’ll handle the
credit card matter with him.”
For some inexplicable reason, Maya didn’t want Mia to meet Timothy, especially at this critical juncture.
Shelly rolled her eyes and nodded. “Sure, Mia, you can go. You’re not needed here anymore.”
Mia had no intention of lingering any longer. After all, Shelly had coerced her into coming in the first place.
This turn of events suited Mia just fine. It might have even simplified matters for her.
As Mia exited the guest room, preparing to leave, she coincidentally encountered a group of people emerging from the adjacent conference room.

Watching Mia depart. Timothy pressed his lips together. Was she playing the cat–and–mouse game again?
Why did she arrive and depart so quickly?
At that moment, the door to the guest room swung open.
Maya emerged with a gentle and happy expression, approaching Timothy. “Tim, are you done with your work?”

As the elevator doors closed. Timothy’s expression became somewhat strained. He turned to look at Mayal and Shelly, asking, “What are you two doing here?”
Upon hearing this, Maya struggled to maintain her composure. Without a second thought, Shelly stepped forward and asked Timothy, could you kindly reinstate my credit card?
