Upon thoughtful consideration, Maya couldnât pinpoint any actions on her part that might have
triggered Dominicâs disapproval or resentment.
So, what prompted his sudden decision to terminate her adoption?
Maya found herself struggling to make sense of it all.
If the Lane family cast her out, she would revert to being just an orphan. In such a circumstance.
how could she possibly secure a marriage into the Barrett family?
After all, Sharonâs favorable treatment of Maya was due to the Lane familyâs esteemed status!
Maya couldnât grasp the potential ramifications of losing this social standing. Therefore.
regardless of the situation, she couldnât afford to forfeit it!
In a composed tone, Dominic spoke, âYes, once you get married, you wonât have to confine yourself at
home to care for Grandma, and you wonât have to constantly please everyone in the
family.
âItâs time for your life to start anew.â
Tears streamed down Mayaâs face as she pleaded, âBut Dominic, I really donât want to leave!â
âI understand that accepting this situation may be difficult for you at the moment. So, Iâll give you
some time to process it.
âTake a careful look at the conditions in the contract and let me know if thereâs anything else you
need. Iâll do my best to accommodate your requests. Thatâs all for now.â
As the call concluded, Mia shot a disdainful glance at the document before her.
After a brief pause, she burst into laughter, though her voice carried an eerie undertone.
After years of dealing with Laura, Maya couldnât fathom being told to leave so abruptly. There was no
way she was going to accept that!
At the moment, she was only engaged to Timothy, and it was a fake engagement at that.
Losing her position as the Lane family heiress was something Maya couldnât afford. She certainly
couldnât consent to these terms.
Without hesitation, Maya called Blake, urging. âInvestigate whether Dominic has discovered information
about my past actions. Find out where the mistake might have occurred!â

Throughout her life, Maya had adeptly concealed her secrets.
Connor had stumbled upon Mayaâs true identity by accident, and since that revelation, his demeanor
toward her had undergone a significant shift, almost treating her like a stranger.
However, even with that incident, the most severe consequence she faced was a scolding from
Dominic.
How could Dominic contemplate severing Mayaâs adoptive ties over such an occurrence?
There must be an aspect of this situation that Maya was unaware of.
With these thoughts swirling in her mind, Maya found herself in a state of chaotic confusion, especially
upon seeing that document, which triggered a sense of utter panic.
At this moment, a memory flashed through Mayaâs mindâthat afternoon at the engagement venue. She
vividly remembered chasing after Mia and witnessing her slipping into Connorâs car
However, Connor had consistently been unresponsive to her calls, a reluctance that seemed even
more pronounced now, making it unlikely that she would receive any answers.
If Maya were to upset Connor, there was a chance he might not attend her engagement ceremony
tomorrow, potentially jeopardizing Lauraâs upcoming surgery.
After a moment of consideration, Maya sent a WhatsApp message to Felix: âTo ensure the seamless
flow of my upcoming wedding. I hope that the designer, Mia, can also be present at my engagement
ceremony tomorrow.â
Maya was determined to uncover the relationship between Mia and Connor.
Upon returning home, Mia left the negative emotions from the hospital behind.
As she pushed open the door and entered her house, she found all six of her brothers gathered in the
living room.
The sofa wasnât spacious enough to accommodate everyone, leading some to sit on the dining chairs.
Meanwhile, Dominic stayed on the balcony, engrossed in a phone call.
Observing this scene, Mia couldnât help but smile. This was her new lifeâa home brimming with a lively
atmosphere.
Suddenly, Connor approached her. âYou came back even later than I did. Where did you go?â
