Upon seeing Bob and Mary, Mia realized she wouldn’t be able to leave immediately.
However, she wasn’t overly concerned, knowing that Vista Properties had Patricia’s bank card information. Regardless of how much of a scene Bob and Mary caused, it wouldn’t alter the
situation.
Mia swiftly sent a WhatsApp message to Felix: “Felix, I just ran into my adoptive parents. I’ll be a
bit late.”
Upon reading the message at the engagement venue, Felix furrowed his brows.
He always sensed that Mia’s family situation was somewhat complicated, especially with the
troublesome nature of Bob and Mary.
If Mia were to be a part of Felix’s future, he’d make sure she establishes clear boundaries with Bob, Mary, and even Patricia, focusing solely on maintaining a positive relationship with her
brothers.
Felix certainly had no desire to get entangled with Bob and Mary.
Expressing his understanding, Felix replied, “Okay, handle it quickly and come over as soon as
you can. We’re all waiting for you.”
Maya had explicitly expressed her desire to see the designer at the engagement venue, and Felix had alread
made a promise to Maya. If Mia failed to show up, it could potentially damage Felix’s
reputation.
Felix quickly revisited the details of the engagement venue, aiming to leave a lasting impression on Maya this time. The risk of losing future business opportunities was something he couldn’t
afford.
After all, this engagement ceremony marked the union between the heiress of the Lane family and the heir of the Barrett family.
Shortly afterward, Maya arrived at the engagement venue. She glanced at the romantic and beautiful decorations, exactly as she had envisioned for her engagement ceremony.
Despite Mia being somewhat bothersome, Maya couldn’t help but acknowledge the undeniable appeal of Mia’s designs.
With a smirk, Maya inquired, “Where’s the designer?”

She purposefully arranged for Mia to witness her engagement to Timothy, intending to show Mia what a compatible and fitting match entailed.
As the heiress of the Lane family. Maya believed Mia, being an orphan, had little to measure up to
in comparison.
Adopting a tone of appeasement, Felix replied, “Ms. Lane, Mia has some urgent matters and will
arrive a bit later.”
Maya immediately frowned, expressing her dissatisfaction. “Is this the work attitude of your
studio employees? As the designer for this wedding, how could she be late?
“She left early yesterday, and I didn’t make a big issue out of it. How dare she be late today!”
Was it possible that Mia intentionally found an excuse not to come?
“Ms. Lane, please don’t be upset. Here’s the situation, Mia is an orphan, and her adoptive parents
are causing some trouble.
“I’ve heard that her family received a sum of money from the relocation, and now her adoptive parents are seeking a share of it,” Felix explained.
Maya’s eyebrows subtly furrowed. “They received money from the demolition?”
Wasn’t Shelly supposed to coordinate Optima Construction to manipulate the funds and channel
the money to Bob and Mary?
However, according to Felix, it seemed Mia still managed to get her hands on the compensation.
“Yes, there were some initial complications. Optima Construction underwent an acquisition by a major conglomerate. Interestingly, it happened to be Dominic’s company–Vista Properties.
