Chapter 218

Mia was well aware of how easy it was for the Barretts to burn their bridges. Thus, she had to keep her

last card safe with her so she wouldn’t be completely powerless if she was attacked or framed in the

future.

And that was exactly what she had been doing.

After she completed her task, she deleted her anonymous account and removed the pendrive.

Everything was

carried out unnoticed.

Nathan gave her the pendrive. After all, he was capable of locating the other party’s IP address when

she fell

victim to an online slander twice.

She asked him what one should do to prevent someone from finding out their IP address.

Nathan thought she had a certain target in mind, so he gave her the pendrive. He mentioned that there

was a special software in it which would make the other party locate a fake IP address.

Mia didn’t expect it to be handy that soon. Nonetheless, she felt the adrenaline rush from not doing the

right

thing.

She would make Shelly very sorry this time, and she would make sure that she wouldn’t dare to lay a

finger on

her again.

Once she was done, she realized she had received a refund of a hundred thousand dollars. Did

Timothy not

accept the payment?

Back then, Sharon gave Bob and Mary a hundred–thousand–dollar cheque when they came asking fornovelbin

money

at their marital home.

The last thing Mia wanted was to owe the Barretts money. Thus, she transferred the exact amount to

Timothy.

Why didn’t he accept the payment? She didn’t want to be indebted to him.

Mia added him back again, and she was surprised to see that he accepted her request immediately.

She was

puzzled.

Did he not block her?

Back then, he even called her to chastise her about blocking him. Nevertheless, she was still taken

aback by

the fact that he didn’t block her.

Mia transferred a hundred thousand dollars to him again.

She wondered if he would be reluctant to accept the money again. After all, a hundred thousand dollars

wasn’t any different from a dollar to him, who was the scion of an affluent family.

Thus, she texted, “Please accept the payment.”

After she texted him, she yawned, then fell asleep quickly.

The next day, she took her phone and glanced at it once she woke up. There were a dozen missed

calls. She

She sat up and went for the trending entertainment headlines. After a brief glance at it, she wasn’t

surprised when she saw Shelly being mentioned in it.

“The Barrett socialite having fun on some drugs and men!”

The news was all over the place. It was impossible to bring it down.

A triumphant smile flashed across Mia’s face when she saw the headlines.

In the next second, Shelly called again. Mia picked it up this time.

“Morning, Ms. Barrett,”

“Mia! Did you do it? Was it you? You were the only one who knew about this!”

Shelly’s shrill voice almost tore her eardrums apart from the other end of the phone.

Putting the phone further away from her, Mia drawled, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Stop pretending. Mia! I’m telling you, you’re certainly messing with the wrong person. I’m one of the

Barretts, and my family will do anything to protect me. Just you wait. I won’t let you off the hook! I’ll kill

you.”

Mia snapped icily, “I warned you back then. Don’t you dare piss me off again!”

“Who do you think you are, Mia? I’m a Barrett, and you’re nothing but a maggot from the slums!

Targeting you is as easy as trampling an ant. How dare you sneak up on me? Just you wait. I won’t

spare your family!”

Mia scoffed.

“Well, go ahead. But if you’re going to be that reckless, I have another video which is even more

explicit. And mind you, you were naked in it. I’m sure plenty of people will be more than glad to see

your body for themselves.”

The other end of the phone became silent in an instant.
