Maya wore a triumphant smile, yet underneath, a sense of unease lingered as she glanced at Mia.
Addressing Shelly, Maya suggested, “Shelly, why not let her go? When we meet Timothy later, I’ll
handle the
credit card matter with him.”
For some inexplicable reason, Maya didn’t want Mia to meet Timothy, especially at this critical juncture.
Shelly rolled her eyes and nodded. “Sure, Mia, you can go. You’re not needed here anymore.”
Mia had no intention of lingering any longer. After all, Shelly had coerced her into coming in the first
place.
This turn of events suited Mia just fine. It might have even simplified matters for her.
As Mia exited the guest room, preparing to leave, she coincidentally encountered a group of people
emerging from the adjacent conference room.
Leading the group, Timothy was attired in a dark suit, radiating his customary air of aloofness. He had
his head bowed, engrossed in conversation with Heath beside him.
Spotting Mia, Heath’s expression immediately darkened. “Sir, Ms. Mia is here,” he reported.
Timothy instinctively glanced in Mia’s direction, his brows furrowing as he spotted her standing there.
Why did Mia decide to come over?
A trace of surprise flashed in Timothy’s eyes, but he kept his emotions hidden. Speaking in a low voice,
he
instructed, “Tell her to wait for me in my office.”
Timothy was convinced that Mia must have had a reason for coming over.
Heath quickly approached Mia, saying, “Ms. Mia, Mr. Barrett requests that you wait for him in his
office.”
Wait for Timothy?
A hint of confusion flickered in Mia’s eyes. “Actually, I’m just passing through. The person looking for
Timothy
is in the guest room.”
Aware that Maya was present, Mia didn’t want to stay and risk embarrassment.
Having said this, Mia turned and headed toward the elevator.
Watching Mia depart. Timothy pressed his lips together. Was she playing the cat–and–mouse game
again?
Why did she arrive and depart so quickly?
At that moment, the door to the guest room swung open.
Maya emerged with a gentle and happy expression, approaching Timothy. “Tim, are you done with your
work?”
However, Timothy paid no attention to Maya, his gaze remained fixed on Mia standing by the elevator.
Mia resisted the urge to glance back as she stepped into the elevator. Despite briefly catching sight of

At that moment, she was nothing more than an Indifferent ex.
As the elevator doors closed. Timothy’s expression became somewhat strained. He turned to look at
Mayal and Shelly, asking, “What are you two doing here?”
Upon hearing this, Maya struggled to maintain her composure. Without a second thought, Shelly
stepped forward and asked Timothy, could you kindly reinstate my credit card?
“The
Wilhelmina incident has nothing to do with me. If you have doubts, you can ask Mia. She’s right here
As she uttered these words, Shelly realized that Mia had already left. She could only exchange a
hopeful glance with Maya, awaiting an explanation from her.
Maya’s expression took on a hint of awkwardness as she expressed, “Yeah, Tim, just a moment ago,
Mia clarified that this incident is unrelated to Shelly, and she didn’t place any blame on her.
“It would be fair to restore Shelly’s credit card.”
Timothy pursed his lips and directed his gaze at Shelly, questioning. “Did you bring Mia here?”
He was still puzzled by Mia’s unexpected presence at the company.
Shelly quickly nodded. “On our way here, I explained everything to Mia, and we came to a mutual
agreement. That’s why she’s willing to come as a witness.”
Timothy’s tone turned cold. “Have you apologized?”
Shelly’s demeanor subtly shifted, and she confessed with a tinge of guilt, “Yes, I’ve apologized.novelbin
Otherwise, Mia wouldn’t have come over with me.”
“You’re lying.”
Timothy easily discerned that Shelly was being untruthful. He spoke sternly, “You’ll need to offer a
sincere apology to Mia and earn her forgiveness. Only then will your credit card limit be reinstated.”
Upon hearing this. Shelly could only turn to Maya for help, recognizing that apologizing to Mia would be
a greater challenge than confronting her own mistakes.
