The Lane brothers looked intimidating when they rose in unison.


    La’s expression shifted in an instant. A hint of confusion flickered across her eyes. Weren’t these


    men


    Maya’s brothers? Nheless, she saw no sign of her and Mia took her seat instead.


    This was strange.


    Kennedy immediately sensed that something was wrong. He wanted to mention that Mia was Timothy’s


    wife and she was certainly well off, but he bit his tongue when he met the Lanes‘ re. Zipping his


    mouth shut, he thought the Lanes were truly formidable.


    “Mia, pass me the mic.” Mia nced at Dominic and did as he said. He took the microphone and stared


    at La.


    “We gave her the money as her family because we thought it’d be nice of her to contribute something


    significant to the society.”


    “F–Family? Aren’t y’all Maya’s brothers?”


    Dominic’s gaze swept past the hall as he said, “Since Mia’s ssmates are here as well, there’s no


    need


    to keep this a secret. Actually, Maya was adopted. The biological daughter of the Lane family had been


    missing for years, and we finally found her recently.”


    Everyone was shell shocked as they stared at Mia in disbelief. What Dominic said was pretty obvious.


    Still nted on the same spot, Mia sighed. It seemed like it was impossible for her to keep a low profile


    now.


    Literally every soul in the hall spiraled in shock, including Kennedy who was on the stage. The


    microphone in his hand almost dropped as he realized Mia was the daughter of the Lanes. But she was


    Timothy’s wife as well!


    Fate truly favored her.


    Mia shed an awkward, yet courteous smile. ncing up at La, she noticed her expression turned


    sour. She bet La didn’t expect Maya to be adopted. La had been eager to cause her trouble to


    please Maya, after all.


    Just then, ude took over the microphone as he fixed his gaze on La. “I remember you. You joined


    the audition for the orchestra, and your performance was remarkable. It seems like your offer letter is


    on


    the way.


    La seemed uneasy as she replied hastily, “Y–Yeah. Thanks for thepliment, Mr. Lane.”N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    “Don’t thank me, because your offer letter is officially terminated now!”


    “Why?” La looked like someone had punched the living daylights out of her. She instinctively


    chanced a nce at Mia as she bit her lip in defiance. “It was a misunderstanding, and I wasn’t aware


    that Maya was adopted. Isn’t it unfair to terminate my offer letter just because of a misunderstanding?”


    ude was unfazed. “Are you justifying the fact that you can insult  because you weren’t aware


    that she’s the daughter of the Lane family? The orchestra doesn’t need a two–faced and immoral


    person like


    you.”


    Jason chimed in, “ording to the rumors you spread earlier, you’ve harmed Mia’s reputation. If any of


    these rumors begins to circte, you will be held legally responsible for that.”


    In an instant, La plopped to the ground in shock. She was petrified by the huge trouble she got


    herself into. She meant to please Maya, but little did she expect Mia to be the actual daughter of the


    Lanes.
