Listening to Shelly’sints on the other end of the phone, Mia calmly replied, “It’s not as if I
canceled your credit card. You should contact the person who did it.”
With that, she hung up the phone. Nheless, Shelly persisted with her calls, prompting Mia to switch
her phone to silent mode.
Despite the recent surge of rumors, they quickly dissipated. Mia hadn’t anticipated such an effortless
resolution.
She breathed a sigh of relief and tenderly caressed her belly, sensing the presence of her unborn child
within.
Following Laura’s surgery at the end of the month, Mia could finally sever all ties with Timothy.
It dawned on her that she should schedule a prenatal checkup.

Taking out her phone, she made an appointment at the hospital and began packing up to leave work
early for the examination.
“Mia, are you leaving early for college?”
Upon hearing Felix’s voice, Mia turned around.
“Indeed, there’s something I need to attend to, and there isn’t much work on my te right now. So, I
thought of leaving early.
“If there’s anything urgent, I can stay back and handle it,” she replied with a hint of awkwardness.
“No worries. I’m just concerned about you. With the recent rumor incident, people are bound to discuss
it. especially at your college,” Felix expressed.
“Thanks for your concern, Felix, but I’m not heading to college,” Mia rified.
Felix couldn’t help but chuckle. “Mia, you don’t have to be so cautious around me. I’m not an enemy.
After all we’re friends, right?”
Mia eased up a bit, although her guard remained. Her past rtionship with Timothy had made her
somewhat wary of men, causing her to instinctively maintain a distance.
Fortunately, Felix didn’t press further. Entering the elevator, Mia headed straight to the hospital.
She went for her prenatal checkup without notifying Connor in advance.
Considering Connor’s hectic work schedule, Mia decided not to disturb his time to apany her,
opting to go to the checkup alone.
After the doctor’s examination, Mia receivedforting news.“The baby is healthy, there are no
issues.”
She carefully tucked the B–scan report into her bag, creating a habit of preserving such important
documents.
After all, those B–scan pictures were precious snapshots of her child, even if the details were a bit
blurry and

Checking the time and realizing it was still early, Mia decided to head upstairs to find Connor.
Exiting the elevator, she looked up and saw Connor standing in the corridor, apanied by a woman.
To her surprise, it was Maya.
Mia froze, her gaze locking onto the unexpected scene of Connor and Maya together. A flicker of
bewilderment crossed her eyes as she processed the sight.
Why were they standing together? Did they know each other?
Mia discreetly positioned herself around the corner, avoiding Maya’s line of sight.
Every encounter with Maya seemed to bring trouble, and Mia was determined to keep her connection
with Connor under wraps to spare him from any unnecessaryplications.
As Mia quietly observed, it seemed that Maya was animatedly expressing something, perhaps engaged
in ant argument.
Was there some unresolved history between Connor and Maya?
Meanwhile, Connor appeared somewhat impatient as he addressed Maya, “I’ve told you before that I’m
busy with work. I don’t have time to attend your engagement.”
“But Dominic assured me that you would find time. I wouldn’t want my engagement to go by without a
single family member present. It would deeply hurt me.”
“If you’re adamant about having your family present, why did you turn down Dominic’s offer to help you
locate your biological family?” Connor questioned.
Upon hearing this, Maya’splexion grew pale.
