Chapter 623

Timothy’s face tilted slightly, and a sharp, burning pain quickly spread across his cheek.

His eyes darted to Mia standing before him, his throat tightening as he said, “This slap is on me. If

you’re still not satisfied…

A resounding smack echoed as another slap landed on Timothy’s opposite cheek.

The atmosphere grew eerily silent.

Caleb and Luna hurried over together, their faces reflecting surprise as they observed the woman who

bore a striking resemblance to Mia.

Luna’s eyes darkened with concern as she addressed Timothy, “Tim, are you

alright?”

Caleb stared at Mia in disbelief, finding it hard to fathom encountering her in this unexpected place.

There had been no news of Mia for the past four years.

Meanwhile, the Lane family in Nord City had covered up any information, leaving no clues to trace

Mia’s

whereabouts.

Timothy remained oblivious, gripping Mia’s wrist tightly as he pursed his lips. “Have you had enough of

hitting me?”

“Let go of me!” Mia protested.

She looked at Timothy in disbelief, who had seemingly appeared out of thin air. How dare he confront

her

like this!

With a chuckle, Mia moved closer, grabbing Timothy’s tie and murmuring. “Sir, many men are

interested in me, but you’re the first one who dared to invite trouble. Despite your good looks. I’m not

interested in this sort of masochistic play.”

Upon hearing her words, Timothy spoke in a deep voice, saying, “You don’t have to pretend you don’t

recognize me.”

Mia abruptly lifted her head, leaving a red lipstick stain on Timothy’s collar.

She retrieved her lipstick, wrote a phone number on his shirt, and lightly patted his chest, remarking. “I

have urgent matters to attend to at the moment, so I can’t engage in these games. Get in touch with

me

later.”

Witnessing her bold actions. Timothy’s eyes briefly flickered with confusion. His gaze shifted to her

face, where he noticed a beauty mark at the corner of her eye–a feature Mia didn’t have.

He exclaimed, “You’re not Mia, are you?”

“No, you’ve mistaken me for someone else.”

Timothy found himself distracted by her beauty mark, causing his grip to instinctively loosen.

Seizing the moment, Mia turned on her heels and made her way toward the elevator. She massaged

her wrist, realizing she should have consulted the almanac before venturing out today.

In modern times, it seemed that men had a variety of tactics when it came to impressing women.

They were even resorting to the strategy of playing hard to get!

“Wait a minute!”

Standing outside the elevator, Mia heard footsteps approaching. A woman came up to her and blocked

her way, causing Mia’s mood to sour. “Move aside!” Mia demanded sharply.

Luna fixed her gaze on Mia. “You can’t just leave like this. You’re Mia, right? Tim has been searching

for you for years.

“Do you have any idea what kind of life he’s had all this time? And yet, here you are, pretending not to

recognize him. Do you realize how painful that is?”

Mia felt completely bewildered by the situation. What was happening here?

One thing was clear though, the woman confronting her seemed cunning, adopting a falsely righteous

tone.

The kind of person Mia detested the most was a hypocrite.

As the elevator doors opened, Mia shot Luna a cold look. “Consider yourself lucky. I have important

matters to attend to and have no time for this. Step aside, this is your final warning.”

Rather than backing down, Luna moved closer and blocked Mia’s path. “You can’t leave until you

yourself.”

Growing increasingly impatient, Mia swiftly grabbed hold of Luna’s hair, leaving her utterly powerless

with just one hand.
