As long as these rich people gave Felix a chance, he would be able to rake in big money!
Mia waited for a long time before Felix finally showed up. “Was it a long queue, Felix?”
“Kind of.” He masked his excitement, not telling her about his encounter with Timothy.
Taking a seat beside her, he asked, “So, you have three brothers. One of them is a doctor, what about the other
two?”
“They live in Nord City. My eldest brother is a salesman at a property agency, and my other brother works at a law firm. He’s just a low–ranking officer.”
Felix nodded. “No wonder that famous law firm in Nord City sued the rumormongers when Wilhelmina defamed you. I don’t think your brother is a small officer there. You can just tell me the truth, Mia.”
“Nope. It’s probably because he gets along well with the people in the law firm. His colleagues are willing to help him out.”
She still appeared humble to him. Not anyone could get into that law firm in Nord City.
At least, the employees over there possessed high education qualifications and had a promising future.
Mia seemed to come from a respectable family, at least according to Felix.
In addition to her identity as a top designer, once he started going out with her, their relationship would boost his career to another height.
The sheer thought of it gave him an adrenaline rush, as he envisioned his successful business and triumphant
return home.
Not long after, Connor returned to the emergency room with a frown. “Mia, I have a surgery suddenly lined up for schedule, so I can’t go home with you.”
Felix offered, “I can send her home.”
Reluctantly, Connor nodded. “Okay. Be careful on your way home.”
Mia had always known that he was a busy man. Besides, she already recovered enough to return home alone.
Her gaze shifted to Felix. “Felix, I can grab a cab home. I’ve already taken up too much of your time.”
“It’s no big deal. I can take you home on my way back. Connor has entrusted you to my care. I should keep my promise.”
She caved in to his persistence and accepted his offer.
The drive took an hour before they arrived at her neighborhood. Felix surveyed it. “Do you live here, Mia?”
If his memory serves him correctly, she used to live in an old neighborhood which was up for demolition soon.
“Yes, I moved here not long ago,” she answered.

“And yet you said you aren’t rich. The houses here are expensive.”
Felix started up his business right after graduation and still couldn’t afford a house in the city as of today. Not even the houses in this neighborhood.
“That’s not true. Remember the cash prize I received? My brothers lent me some money so I was able to buy it.
Felix figured Mia’s brothers had handsomely paid jobs. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to lend so much money to her.
This revelation spurred Felix on, prompting a more enthusiastic response from him, “Text me when you arrive home, Mia. It puts my mind at ease knowing you’re safe.”
“Okay, and sorry for the trouble. I’ll buy you a meal someday.”
He waved his hand, watching her walk into the neighborhood.
Then, he took his phone out to check the price of the house. Ideas began flooding his mind, pieces clicking into place as he devised a plan to win Mia over.
Since Mia was an orphan, she should be someone who yearned for love. This thought lingered in Felix’s mind.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
