contorted with frustration and worry. The mention of Hugh’s name seemed to have cast a dark cloud

friends. She had resolved their troubles, even going as far as to clash with specific individuals in the
industry on her loved one’s behalf.
When she found herself in dire straits, these individuals displayed such ingratitude, going as far as to
turn their backs on her and sever ties.

“If you look for anyone else, you are harming them”
He could sense Mia Schmidt’s desperate attempts to seek help, only to be rejected by those she
reached out to. The disappointment and heartbreak were evident on her face.
That was why he spoke to comfort her
“I understand that, but I still feel uncomfortable. Mia pouted, wearing a visibly unhappy expression.

they would be there shortly, even if it meant lying to her.
However, they chose to block her, and this made her upset.

will be here soon. And when Mr. Croydon arrives, you’ll be in deep trouble!
“Mia Schmidt, you bitch. When Mr Croydon arrives, I’ll get him to destroy you and kick you out of the
production team”
Suranne’s teeth clenched tightly as she shot Mia and Haylan a fierce glare.
If looks could kill, they would have been torn to shreds by her furious gaze.
Just moments ago, while Haylan and the others were enjoying their meal, Suranne had already
reached out to Hugh for help once again. She was confident that it wouldn’t be long before Hugh
arrived with his entourage.
“I must say, your beauty is deceiving. Behind that charming facade lies a venomous nature. Noah
commented with a deep
voice
“Someone who sells their body for temporary glory and money has a twisted heart. It’s no surprise that
she’s capable of such Viciousness, Haylan remarked.
“What does it have to do with you? You poor people, lowly commoners. What right do you have to
criticize me? When Mr. Croydon arrives. I’ll make sure to destroy you!” Suranne retorted
Mia took out her phone and began recording the heated exchange. With a sly smile, she challenged
Suranne, “Suranne, I’ve captured this entire scene on video. Care to guess what will happen when this
goes viral? I wonder if it will make you even more popular?”
“Bastard! Mia, you despicable witch! Give me that phone!” Suranne’s expression contorted with rage as
she lunged toward Mia, snatching the phone from her hands.
Before Suranne could pounce on Mia, Haylan swiftly intercepted her with a powerful kick, sending her
flying through the air Suranne crashed to the ground, landing on her back with a thud. Agony radiated

She parted her lips, ready to utter words, yet an unexpected sweetness coated her throat, forcing her
to expel a mouthful of blood.
In that very instant, an indescribable agony pierced through her core, rendering Suranne utterly
speechless. Collapsing onto the ground, Suranne struggled to catch her breath.
“You’re buzzing around like a pesky fly!” Haylan remarked icily as he took a sip of his beer. “Remain
grounded, don’t get up”
Mia’s eyes widened in disbelief as she gazed at Haylan. “Haylan, aren’t you being excessively brutal to
a woman?”.
“This kind of woman deserves to be beaten!” Noah said.
Haylan nodded, his expression firm. “Someone like her deserves a good thrashing for her reckless
words.”
Noah’s face contorted with a sudden realization, and he hastened to clarify, “However, Muni, please
don’t misunderstand. Haylan isn’t inherently violent. It’s just that this particular woman deserves the
punishment she receives.
“Besides, this woman incessantly burls derogatory insults at you. Haylan is simply defending your
honor.”
Upon hearing Noah’s explanation, Mia covertly nodded, a subtle warmth blossoming within her.
She realized that Haylan had come to her defense, so he had taken it upon himself to teach Suranne a
lesson

clinging presence.
Yet her efforts proved futile as the snake remained tightly coiled around her call, impervious to her
attempts to shake it off.
“A snake”” Noah murmured, his expression morphed into one of concern as he swiftly rose from his
seat to lend a hand to
Mia
Haylan stood up, his brows knitting together in a thoughtful frown. “In a bustling city like this, why would
there be poisonous snakes” he pondered.
Just as they rose, two venomous snakes descended from the sky with lightning speed, launching
themselves directly at the faces of Havlan and Noah
