Chapter 226
“Do you want me to wish you a household full of infertility and barrenness, then?” Mia countered.
“Maya, stop these petty games,” she continued sternly before turning away, showing no intention of lingering any longer.
“Mia, are you planning to sneak away? After all, this reality is undeniably harsh for you, isn’t it?
“The flowers I brought here are worth more than your annual salary. That’s the stark difference between us!”
Maya taunted.
Mia turned around, her gaze calm and undisturbed.
“If you want me to continue designing, that’s fine. However, aren’t you concerned that I might tamper with
things and make you disappear without a trace?” she retorted.
Upon hearing Mia’s statement, Maya’s expression grew uneasy.
With a forced bravado, she responded, “Mia, you wouldn’t dare! Just because you used those dirty tricks
against Shelly doesn’t mean I’m as gullible as she is.”
Mia responded with a wry smile, “Go ahead, put it to the test. Since you’re not keen on making it easy for me,
let’s just make it challenging for everyone, shall we?”
Through gritted teeth, Maya retorted, “If you do that, the studio will also bear the responsibility! Besides, you
didn’t even know it was my order before you came today. You wouldn’t dare to sabotage it.”
Despite their intense conflicts, Mia still adhered to professional ethics.
A cold smirk crept onto Mia’s face. “Actually, there are a few safety concerns related to this wedding design. I
observed them upon my arrival, and I intended to address them.
“However, since it’s your wedding, let’s just leave it at that. Embracing the path of no return as a couple seems
to suit you perfectly.”
As Mia finished speaking, Maya’s face paled.
With a smirk, Mia turned around and briskly walked away. If Maya intended to repulse her, Mia was prepared
to return the favor.
Tomorrow marked Maya and Timothy’s engagement ceremony.
It was likely too late to alter the design and venue now. Once Maya saw the engagement setup, she would
probably start contemplating where the safety hazards might be.
Finally exhaling, Mia swiftly walked away from the scene. She pulled out her phone and sent a WhatsApp
message to Felix: “Felix, something came up at home. I’m leaving early.
“The engagement venue design is almost done. You’re in charge of keeping an eye on it.”
Mia had no intention of delving into the complex relationship between her and Maya with Felix.

However, to expect her to stay there and arrange the engagement venue for that couple was something she
couldn’t bring herself to do!
Soon enough, Felix’s call came in. “Mia, why did you suddenly leave? Is something happening at home? Is it
related to the demolition?”
“Yeah, something along those lines,” Mia offered in a vague response.
Upon hearing this, Felix’s tone softened. “If it’s something this important, you should go back and handle it. I’ll take care of things here.”
Mia breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Felix didn’t press for more information.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t know how to explain further.
Given that the contract for this order was already signed, canceling it was impractical at this stage.
Elaborating on the situation to Felix would have been awkward, so leaving it as it was seemed like the best option.
As Mia stepped outside, she noticed a familiar car parked on the side of the road.
Wasn’t that Connor’s car?
Has he not left yet?
Meanwhile, Connor was still on the phone with Dominic. Glancing up, he noticed Mia emerging. “Dominic, I’ll update you later. Mia’s on her way out. We can discuss it tonight.”
Mia approached Connor. The timing couldn’t have been better. She had been worried about how to leave the venue, given the challenge of finding a taxi in this area.
Fortunately, Connor hadn’t left yet.
Suddenly, Maya’s voice called out from behind, “Mia, wait!”
