Chapter 172

In the morning. Wilhelmina went to great lengths to tarnish Mia’s reputation. However, as the afternoon

unfolded, the truth emerged, revealing that Wilhelmina was the one involved with Keegan.

Felix cleared his throat before turning to Tammy, the receptionist. “Have someone tidy up the lobby.

There’s not much left to attend to now. Everyone is free to call it a day,” he instructed.

Before long, the studio was left with only Felix and Mia.

Raising her gaze, Mia commented, “With the truth finally revealed, it has brought trouble to the studio.”

“I’ve always believed in your innocence, Mia. It’s just surprising to discover the kind of person

Wilhelmina truly

“The studio will soon release a statement terminating her. It’s getting late. Let’s grab some dinner

together

after sorting out this mess,” Felix replied.

“Alright.”

Aware that she had inconvenienced Felix, Mia couldn’t bring herself to decline his invitation.

Shortly after, Felix headed to his office to address the issue.

Sitting at her desk, Mia opened her computer and found the photos and videos she had shared using

an

alternate account.

As she read the comment section, she observed a flurry of reactions.

Reflecting on Wilhelmina’s recent downfall, Mia decided to remove the incriminating videos and photos

she

had posted.

Yet, judging by the intensity of the online buzz, she suspected that the content had already circulated

extensively.

At that moment, Mia stumbled upon a post from a prominent media personality: “Mia Bowen became

the

target of a jealous studio colleague who deliberately tarnished her reputation with false accusations

and

slander.

“The truth has now surfaced following the exposure of the perpetrator’s incriminating videos and

photos.”

Intrigued, Mia clicked on the post, finding a clear and detailed explanation of the origins and intricacies

behind the false accusations.

Nonetheless, it failed to shed light on the fact that others were involved with Wilhelmina in this matter.

Mia suddenly came across another trending topic: “A prestigious law firm in Nord City has officially filed

a lawsuit against the CEO and his family of a construction company.”

“The allegations centered around Mia’s defamation, with the legal action also seeking a public apology

from the accused parties.”

Upon seeing the renowned legal team, Mia found herself momentarily taken aback. She recalled it was

the company where Jason worked.

As Mia witnessed her brothers rallying to support her, a comforting warmth enveloped her.

So, this was what having a family felt like!

It was truly heartening!

An hour later, Felix emerged from his office after completing his tasks. “Mia, we’re needed at the police

station to finalize the case,” he informed.

“Let’s go.”

Mia felt a profound sense of gratitude toward Felix for trusting her during the incident this morning as

well as for his proactive approach in reporting it to the police.

Now, she was certainly committed to working closely with Felix to address these matters.

After leaving the studio, the two went straight to the police station.

By the time everything was sorted out, it was already dinner time.

As Felix drove, he casually asked, “What are you in the mood for dinner tonight?”

“I’m good with anything. Let’s just find a nearby spot to grab a bite.”

Feeling a bit fatigued, Mia looked forward to returning home and getting some rest.

Half an hour later, Felix parked his car in front of a restaurant and turned to Mia, inquiring. “Mia, have

you hired

a lawyer?”

Meeting Felix’s gaze, Mia discerned that he was probably alluding to the public lawyer’s letter.

“My brother is a lawyer and works at that law firm. Upon learning about the false accusations against

me, he felt compelled to step in and offer his support,” she explained.

Felix hesitated before asking. “But aren’t you an orphan?”

“Yes, but I’ve found my family.”

“Really? That’s great. Were you originally from Nord City?”

Affirming with a nod, Mia replied. “Yes.”

“It’s impressive to have a brother working in such a prestigious law firm. It speaks volumes about his

accomplishments. Your biological family must be doing quite well compared to your adoptive parents.

“Congratulations on that! I’ve noticed you seem even brighter and more cheerful than before.”

“Thank you.” Mia couldn’t help but acknowledge that she was indeed in a significantly better state than

before.

Stepping into the restaurant, she looked up and immediately spotted someone familiar.

Truly, it was a small world!
