Chapter 373
Felix’s blatant tone struck as absurd to Mia.
Like mother, like son; both Janice and Felix were shameless.
Since they confronted her with that kind of attitude, Mia figured that there was nothing else to talk about between them anymore.
Mia replied bluntly, “Felix, I’m not obliged to take care of you. What I did yesterday was my final act of kindness toward you.”
“Mia, if it weren’t for your brother, I wouldn’t have been hospitalized. I kept quiet about who the offender was to the police because of you. I sacrificed so much for you. Can’t you be a little understanding?”
Right then, Janice’s squeaky voice piped up. “What? Felix, are you saying that Mia’s brother was the cause of your injury? Why didn’t you tell me?”
Then, the phone was thrust into Mia’s hands. “Come to the hospital now, Mia Bowen. I have to get to the bottom of this. Otherwise, I’ll call the police to have your brother arrested.”
“Be my guest.” Mia hung up the call.
She was still worried, but Jason had given her his word that everything would be fine.
So, everything should be fine, right?
Although Claude was the offender, not her, Jason wouldn’t sit still and do nothing about it. They were brothers after all.
The thought eased her mind. In the afternoon, she headed to college for lectures.
She needed to catch up with her studies so that she could pass the examinations in one attempt.
Mia’s phone rang incessantly, but she ignored it.
Felix’s true colors were finally showing. If he was using the assault incident as leverage now, he might request more from her in the future.
After some thought, she decided she’d rather he went to the police.
Claude wouldn’t leave traces that easily, so it was possible that Felix couldn’t find any evidence to
charge Claude with assault.
On top of that, one of the family members–Jason–was a lawyer. Everything should be fine.

During her study break, she went to the restroom to check the barrage of missed calls and messages from Janice and Felix.
She ignored them, then an entertainment article popped up in her notification.
Love Intrigue Unfolds: Talented Singer Accused of Dating Wealthy Heir.”
When Mia saw the picture of the talented singer, she recalled the woman hot on Connor’s heels
that night.
That was the same woman!
Mia initially assumed that something was going on between the duo, but it seemed like she was ahead of herself.
Her finger instinctively clicked the link, revealing the singer looking all sophisticated in a black
dress.
However, the reporter only managed to capture the back of the man next to her.
