Mia's jaw tightened. "Waiting for me? It seems like you're competing for this project on purpose, huh?"Timothy nodded without hesitation. "That's right."She didn't expect him to admit it so confidently. She stepped forward and pulled his necktie. "You're one daring thief, huh? I was being nice and let you go and yet this is how you repay my kindness?"Placing his hands by the doorframe, he stopped the elevator door from closing in case it hurt him.She huffed, "Why are you doing this?"His Adam's apple bobbed and his voice sounded hoarse. "So that you'll remember me.""Jerk!"She released him. "You're only making me hate you more."There was no way she would remember this bastard.Stretching out her arm, she wanted to press the close button. But he stopped the elevator door from closing and entered the elevator. Mia looked at him. "What are you doing?""I'm going to do whatever you do." Timothy primped his necktie while looking into his reflection"Timothy Barrett, are

Raymond frowned. "I can't talk about this. This is my personal matter.""Well, it is your personal matter, but you're joining the election again next year. Here's a piece of advice from me—be careful. Any scandals might pull your votes down. Don't you think so? "Besides, my family has been working with you for so many years. We hope you can continue being the mayor without any problem." Mia worded that way on purpose.Luna obviously looked flustered.Raymond's expression turned solemn too. He nodded. "I will settle the issue as soon as possible. It won't be a problem. And I hope you won't tell this to Mr. Dominic. I can take care of this trivial matter without a problem."She nodded. "Of course, I have faith in you, Mr. Shelbert. If you can't even take care of such a trivial matter, you wouldn't have been able to come this far."A furious Luna looked at Raymond. "What do you mean by that? Are you going to abandon me again?"He sighed, "You do know that I can't be involved in an

Although Raymond didn't want to acknowledge Luna as his daughter, he felt guilty toward Luna's mother because he didn't fulfill his duty as a parent to their only daughter.Well, he could treat Luna better but not at the expense of his career.However, he didn't expect Luna to lie to him!Despite the slight guilt, she bit the bullet. "It's not fault anyways. It was Mrs. Barrett who orchestrated everything. In the end, I had to take all the blame and go to prison. She was unscathed! "Shouldn't you take responsibility for me instead of doubting me? You're my father, but you haven't done your duty all these years!"Mia watched Luna's little show, which was so realistic that Raymond wavered. He shifted his gaze toward Mia. "Ms. Mia, I think I have to look into this matter first.""So, you're intending to protect your daughter.""I'm not protecting her. I'm trying to find out what happened. If she wasn't the only one to be blamed, she shouldn't take the blame all by herself. Don't

However, Mia would never give in.Her tone was cold. "You're underestimating me, Mr. Shelbert. Do you think that the life and death of the Barretts would bother me?""I dared not underestimate you, Ms. Mia. But there's no point for both our families—or even the three families—to be on bad terms because of such a trivial matter. It won't do anything good to us.""So how would you like to settle this?"Raymond suggested, "I know that my daughter is at fault, but I can hand over the project to you to make up for it. For future projects, I will consider your family first. How's that? You won't lose anything from this.""Do you think I need that?""Ms. Mia, if you have other conditions, tell me. I will do my best to fulfill them.""Simple. Let Luna pay for the price." Mia turned around, looking at the bodyguards by the door. "If you insist on not letting me leave the room, I will call Dominic right now. Since you have something over his head, he might as well talk to you personally.

Mia said solemnly. "It's been four years, Timothy. The orphan Mia might need you to take care of something, but I don't need it now. I can take care of it myself."The elevator door opened and she walked out.Now that she knew Raymond was meeting Luna and the relationship between the duo, there was a need to devise a proper plan. She mustn't act recklessly.Winning the project wasn't the main objective now. It was to make Luna pay the price for her deeds.Timothy followed Mia. "Mia, hear me out.""I don't want to hear any explanation from you."At that moment, Sharon scurried over. "Son, what are you doing here?"Veronica quickly said, "Tim, look at me! This woman slapped me! You have to teach her a lesson!"Mia was surprised that Sharon and Veronica hadn't left.Stopping in her tracks, Mia flashed him a meaningful smile. "I slapped her because she kept saying how Ginger's a burden and trying to steal her custody rights. "You know how vile my temper has always been. I neve
