Chapter 221
Mia couldn’t help but marvel at Wilhelmina’s audacity. Following Wilhelmina’s words, Mia observed that
Wilhelmina seemed genuinely oblivious to the situation.
Through gritted teeth, Wilhelmina retorted, “It’s all because of you that I’ve ended up like this.”
Wilhelmina had depleted her funds long ago, found herself embroiled in legal troubles, and was on the brink of being blacklisted.
This morning, her phone had been disconnected due to unpaid bills, leaving her unable to make a call or access the internet.
All of this, of course, was courtesy of Mia!
Wilhelmina sneered, “Mia, I came here today specifically to witness your downfall.”
Upon hearing this, Dominic scowled. “Where did this unpleasant woman come from, carrying such a foul mouth?”
Nathan chimed in. “This is the woman who spread false rumors about Mia last time.”
Dominic’s expression darkened as he shot a glance at Nathan, asking. “Hasn’t this been taken care of yet?”
Wasn’t the plan to ensure Wilhelmina could never recover? How was she still able to show up here?
Jason cleared his throat and stated, “This falls under my responsibility. I’ll investigate it later.”
Mia turned to her brothers and calmly stated, “It’s okay, let’s focus on dealing with the matter at hand now.”
She knew why Wilhelmina was still standing loud and proud here–it was because Shelly was secretly supporting her.
However, from today onward, Shelly would no longer have any influence.
Wilhelmina, this accomplice, was simply making empty threats.
With an arrogant laugh, Wilhelmina retorted, “Mia, even with so many men by your side, you won’t be able to handle this matter. After all, you can’t match the influence of the people backing me.
“Soon, they’ll transfer the money directly into your adoptive parents‘ bank account, and unfortunately, you won’t receive a single penny.”
Dominic cautioned her, “Don’t be too confident.”
Overnight, he had orchestrated the acquisition of Optima Construction, and the new owner behind the scenes would assume control this morning.
Just then, representatives from Optima Construction emerged.
Wilhelmina promptly approached them, stating, “Mr. Parkson, do you recall our agreement? Later, make sure to adhere to what I instructed you.”
+15 BONOS Certainly, Mia wouldn’t comprehend the full extent until she faced the repercussions. Now, Wilhelmina was determined to unveil to Mia the true meaning of despair!
However, Lucas forcefully pushed Wilhelmina aside, exclaiming, “Leave me alone, stop bothering me.
“I just found out last night that Optima Construction has gone bankrupt, and our salaries haven’t been paid. Let’s quickly return to demand what’s owed to us.”
Upon learning this startling news, all the employees of Optima Construction dispersed.
Realizing the situation was taking an unfavorable turn, Bob and Mary hurriedly approached. “Why is everyone leaving? We haven’t received our money yet.”
Wilhelmina, equally baffled, questioned, “How could it go bankrupt!”
Upon hearing about Optima Construction’s bankruptcy and the cancellation of the demolition, everyone hurried outside, eager to find company representatives for clarification.
However, it appeared that the company officials had scattered, leaving the fate of the redevelopment uncertain.
Mia noticed Patricia heading outside and hurriedly caught up, but the crowd quickly separated them.
At that moment, a black luxury car was parked outside.
