“When I charged at Mia, she instinctively shielded her belly. Her reaction was vehement. I’ve been


    holding on to these suspicions for a long time, but I couldn’t prove it until today.”


    “Why should I believe you? You told me that spreading rumors could bring her down, and yet look at


    what happened! My family told me off because of that!”


    Resentment clouded Wilhelmina’s eyes as she thought, “Right, Shelly was able to get away with it


    because she’s Ms. Barrett while I was held ountable for everything. No one bothered to care about


    my side of the story.”


    Her voice dipped into an icy tone. “Mia was able to get away with it because there’s a man backing her


    up. I think he’s the baby’s father.”


    Shelly gave it a serious thought. “You have a point.”


    Liam, the famous actor, was the man backing Mia up. If he hadn’t gotten in Shelly’s way, she would’ve


    been able to teach Mia a lesson.


    Shelly admired her newly manicured nails. “But this is just your side of the story. Unless, you can prove


    that Mia’s really pregnant.”


    “I’ll figure something out. But, Ms. Barrett, you know my situation right now. I lost my job and reputation.


    No one will take me in. I’m in need of cash.”


    Shelly rolled her eyes. “I’ll transfer you a thousand dors. As long as you can get me something to


    prove Mia’s pregnancy, you’ll gain what you deserve.”


    Wilhelmina received a notification of a transaction, her brows frowning in annoyance.


    This amount of money didn’t even mean anything to her in the past. Shelly was trying to brush


    Wilhelmina off with that little money.


    However, Wilhelmina was in dire need of money.


    She cast a backward nce at the studio, and vowed to never forgive Mia and Shelly.


    Meanwhile, Mia slumped in her seat, still in disbelief over what had just transpired.


    Her heartbeat was racing.


    Felix approached her, pouring her a ss of warm water. “Are you okay?”


    “I’m okay. Thanks for earlier, Felix.” A few sips of warm water recentered her a bit, but they did nothing


    to cate her heartbeat.


    Instead, dizziness clouded her mind and she felt cold.


    She held the desk. “Felix.”


    “Mia, what’s wrong?”

    Before she could stand up, she flopped onto the floor.


    Felix carried her in his arms. “Hold on, I’ll take you to the hospital.”


    Mia gritted her teeth in an attempt to stay awake. “Peace Hospital.”


    Going to the hospital Connor worked at could give her a peace of mind.


    Felix rushed to the hospital. Her face was pale and he keptforting her along the way.


    Mia mustered every ounce of strength left in her to call Connor. The line got through almost


    immediately. “Mia, what’s up?”


    “I have a stomach ache. I’m reaching the hospital soon.”


    “What? Hold on, I’ming!”


    A wave of relief washed over her when she heard that. Things should be fine now.


    She didn’t want anyone to find out that she was pregnant.


    Felix parked the car before carrying her to the emergency room.


    At the same time, Maya and Timothy got out of a car.


    Timothy raised his head only to see a man carrying Mia to the emergency room.


    Maya was still in a good mood. “My brother has made a surgical n. Feel free to ask any questions if


    you-” Before she could finish, she followed his gaze and caught Mia in sight.
