The phone rang persistently before the call finally connected, “Hello? Mia?”

Mia could hear the caution and disbellel in Felix’s voice.

She said coldly, “I have the video of your mother assaulting me at the hospital,”

“Mia. I’m really sorry about what happened. My mom’s getting on in age, and she was just worries

about my health. She didn’t mean to act out like that,” Felix’s voice softened with apology.

“If you know it wasn’t intentional, why

mother–son duo had no boundarle did you two run away?” Mia didn’t buy Felix’s excuses. This

Felix attempted to strike a bargain. “Mia, how about this? I won’t pursue the matter of your brother

hitting me, and you won’t pursue my mom for pushing you. We’ll call it even.”

“Who told you it was my brother who hit you?” Mia’s tone remained indifferent. “I just found out it

was my ex–husband who hit you, not my brother.”

Felix was taken aback. It really was Mia’s ex–husband!

Quickly, he tried to reason. “Mia, this is your family’s business, let’s just move on.”

Mia laid out her terms. “That was my ex–husband, not my family. But if you want me to drop the

charges against your mom, you must tell the police that it was my ex–husband who hit you.”

“But back then, my eyes were covered when I was dragged away. And the person who hit me was

wearing a mask. I have no evidence,” mumbled Felix.

Mia assured him. “You don’t need to worry about evidence. I’ll testify for you.”

Felix was stunned by Mia’s words. He finally realized that Mia wanted to use him to catch her ex-

husband!

The most vicious thing is indeed a woman’s heart! How did he not realize how ruthless Mia was

before?

But Mia’s ex–husband was capable of kidnapping and assault. He was clearly not a good person!

“Mia, it’s not that I won’t help you…”

“Felix, let’s be clear. This isn’t you helping me, it’s a give and take. Think it over tonight. I’ll go to the

police station tomorrow. If you don’t show up then, I’ll report your mother for assault.” With that, Mia

hung up, unwilling to listen to Felix’s excuses.

Mia stared at her phone and took a deep breath. She was confident that Felix, being the mama’s

boy that he was, would agree to her conditions.

She wasn’t sure if this would do anything to Timothy, but she wanted to give it a try.

After eating, Mia felt exhausted and fell asleep right away.

After watching over Mia for a while, Claude returned to the living room and sent a message in the

family group chat: “Mia fell asleep after she ate.”

Jason replied: “I’ve already booked a plane ticket. I’ll handle this matter personally. We must put

that old hag behind bars.”

Nathan texted: “I hacked into Felix’s company system and found evidence of his illegal activities

and tax evasion. We can use it later.”

Dominic looked pissed. “We need to teach those two a lesson. How dare they try to take advantage of

Mia? In their dreams.”

Eva wrote: “Maya has been bawling her eyes out in front of Margaret. I’m worried Margaret won’t

accept Mia if she comes home.”

Ever since Maya refused to relinquish her adopted status, she had insisted on staying close to

Margaret. The underlying threat was obvious.

Liam texted: “I always said Maya wasn’t a good person. Yet all of you insisted on adopting her. Do

you see the consequences now?”
