Mia’s composed demeanor stirred a in Keegan.

Without delay, Roberto took Mia’s phone and commanded, “Unlock it.”

Mia readily complied, unlocking her phone.

Following this, Keegan provided Timothy’s phone number, which Roberto dialed directly from Mia’s phone. In no time, her phone screen lit up with a contact name: “Scumbag.”

Observing the display, Mia cleared her throat lightly. “It’s an inside joke between us,” she remarked.

After retrieving her phone, Mia felt a sense of relief as the lingering anxiety lifted. Had she successfully passed

the test?

The recent ordeal had genuinely terrified her.

Nonetheless, could she confidently assume she was now in the clear?

Confronted with a moment of urgency. Mia found herself compelled to resort to bluffing.

Once again, Mia’s phone buzzed, and Timothy’s name lit up on the caller ID.

Mia’s eyelid twitched in annoyance. Why was Timothy calling again? Didn’t he have work to attend to?

Keegan glanced over and calmly remarked, “Aren’t you going to pick up?”

Reluctantly, Mia answered the call, deliberately clearing her throat before saying. “Hello, dear. I apologize for the confusion earlier. I accidentally dialed the wrong number.”

Timothy’s brows furrowed on the other end. “Mia, can’t you communicate like a normal person?”

“Let’s agree to treat this incident as if it never happened.”

“Alright, after all the fewer complications, the better,” Mia agreed easily.

Clutching her design plans, Mia swiftly left the villa.

Once she stepped out into the open air, Mia was enveloped by the embrace of sunlight, and a soothing warmth gradually embraced her.

As she wiped the sweat from her forehead, Mia couldn’t help but reflect on how narrowly she had escaped a

potentially dangerous situation.

The encounter with Keegan had caught her off guard.

Stepping outside the villa, Mia was accompanied by a lingering unease. Promptly, she sought solace on a

nearby bench, seeking a moment of respite.

As her hand gently rested on her belly. Mia contemplated whether the baby might have been startled, too.

“Well, at least your seemingly useless father still holds some value,” she mused.

While regaining her composure, a sleek black luxury car suddenly pulled up in front of Mia. The license plate seemed vaguely familiar.

As the car door opened, Timothy emerged, his voice tinged with surprise. “Mia!”
