“Mia, despite that, there’s no need for you to resign.
“The working environment here is quite laid–back, and you shouldn’t perceive it as unfair to your
colleagues, considering the differences in your circumstances.”
Mia looked up in surprise as Felix added, “Mia, given our shared experiences, I believe you can sense
my feelings for you. Do you share similar sentiments?”
“I’m sorry, Felix, but I’ve always seen you as a friend only,” Mia straightforwardly turned down Felix.
A glimmer of disappointment flickered in Felix’s eyes, tinged with a subtle hint of reluctance.
After a brief pause, he finally voiced his thoughts, “Mia, what if we find a middle ground? You could
transition to working on weekends instead.
“Your incredible talent has brought numerous orders to our studio, and a sudden resignation would
undeniably have a negative impact.

weekends?” Felix negotiated.
Mia’s gaze softened as she noticed the scar on Felix’s head. “Alright.”
Upon hearing this, Felix let out a sigh of relief. “Mia, regarding my mom’s mistake yesterday,
please don’t harbor any ill feelings toward her.”
Mia reassured him, “Don’t worry. It’s not an issue.”
With those words, she returned to her seat, appearing somewhat distracted. The looming
prospect of Laura’s surgery tomorrow left her feeling a bit nervous.
In the evening, Mia patiently waited for Connor to finish work before broaching the topic of Laura’s
situation.
Maintaining a calm demeanor, Connor reassured her, “Lately, Mrs. Barrett Senior’s health has
remained stable.
“Assuming the surgery goes according to plan, there shouldn’t be any complications. You can put
your mind at ease.”
A sigh of relief escaped Mia. That was reassuring news.

The next morning, Mia prepared early for her visit to the hospital.
Taken aback by her early rising, Patricia inquired, “Why are you up so early? Don’t your Monday
lectures typically commence in the afternoon?”
Mia hesitated before responding, “Aunt Patricia, Grandma Laura is undergoing surgery today. I need to
go and check on her.”
“You should go. I hope everything goes smoothly for Mrs. Barrett Senior. She’s a wonderful person. I’m
confident she’ll be fine.”
Mia endured a restless night, clinging to the hope that Laura’s surgery would unfold without

In the taxi on the way to the hospital, Mia’s stomach began to rumble. It felt as if her twins were staging
another protest.
With no alternative, Mia stopped by a nearby shop to grab some breakfast.
As she entered the hospital, a sports car suddenly raced by at high speed, narrowly avoiding a collision
with her.
Startled, Mia swiftly dodged to the side, unintentionally spilling her soy milk on the ground.
After parking her sports car, Maya emerged, casting an arrogant look at Mia. “Mia, I always thought you
were fearless, but it seems there are times when you feel afraid too.”
Observing Maya stepping out of the car, Mia’s gaze noticeably darkened.
She instinctively reached down, comforting the twins nestled within her belly. In the moments that
followed, she grabbed the spilled soy milk and hurled it at Maya’s sports car.
The soy milk splattered across the car’s interior, creating a messy scene.
Maya stood in shock, angrily retorting, “Mia, have you lost your mind? Do you realize how
expensive my sports car is? It would take you a decade of labor just to afford it.”
Without hesitation, Mia raised her hand and seized Maya’s hair, locking eyes with her in a cold,
unwavering gaze.
