Chapter 200
“Mia, regarding the Mael Neighborhood Project, the client specifically wants you to be in charge of it.
They prefer your eye for aesthetics and details.”
“Okay. I’ll stop by the studio.” Mia hung up the call and headed to the studio.
She wore a mask, fearing that her adoptive parents might catch her.
Felix raised an eyebrow at her. “Playing detective?”
“I’m worried my adoptive parents might spot me. It’ll cause trouble to everyone. You can send me the
follow-
ups of the project through email. I’ll go through it to see if there’s any problem.”
As soon as she settled at her desk, an unexpected guest stormed into the studio like a hungry beast.
“Mia Bowen!”
Mia’s head shot up at the unexpected guest.
It was Wilhelmina.
It had only been days, but she appeared disheveled in shabby clothes, as if she hadn’t washed up for

Mia put her work on hold for a moment. “Anything I can help you with?”
Felix left his office immediately and stood before Mia. “Wilhelmina Jones, you’re already fired. If you’re
trying
to cause trouble here, I won’t let it slide that easily.”
Wilhelmina’s expression contorted. “Why are you doing this to me, Felix Quilter? Have you forgotten
what you said to me that night? That you’d take responsibility for it? And that you’ll reveal our
relationship once we’re
stable?”
There was a nuance in his expression, but he calmly replied, “I never said such things.”
She retorted, “You jerk! We slept together!”
Frustrated, he snapped, “Wilhelmina Jones, everyone knows what you did. You were the one behind it
and yet you framed Mia. This is the ending you brought upon yourself.”
Had he known earlier that she was a sugar baby, he wouldn’t have touched her at all.
He even went for a body checkup to make sure he was healthy.
Her eyes welled up with tears as she knelt before Mia. “I was wrong about that. I’m so sorry. Please
forgive me!
Mia was completely dumbfounded. Wilhelmina was all confrontational as though she was trying to
settle the
score, yet she was the one on her knees now.
Mia scanned the area, wondering if it was a prank.
Wilhelmina had Shelly’s support, so Mia needed to tread carefully.

debt.
Shelly, who had long deleted Wilhelmina’s contact number, didn’t answer her calls. Shelly clearly
showed her intention to cut ties with Wilhelmina.
Adding to the pressure, Wilhelmina also received a letter from a famous law firm, which demanded she
beg for Mia’s forgiveness, Otherwise, they would send Wilhelmina behind bars!
Left with no choice, Wilhelmina got on her knees to plead for forgiveness and mercy from Mia.
Wilhelmina raged internally. She won’t forget this. She wondered how Mia Bowen managed to outshine
her in
the Fleur International Design Competition. How did Mia turn the tables and earn Felix’s recognition?
Wilhelmina is just as hardworking and capable as she is! Why does she get all the good stuff?
Meanwhile, Felix was equally taken aback.
He wondered that perhaps Mia is from a powerful family.
Still finding the situation perplexing, Mia approached Wilhelmina. “What are you-
