Edna quickly feigned discomfort, claiming. “My leg is acting up again. It must be my old ailment

resurfacing.”

“Mom, you can sleep in my room.” Patricia offered, unwilling to leave Edna to sleep uncomfortably in

the

living room.

In the end, Mia had no choice but to let Patricia share her room, while Edna and Karen occupied

Patricia’s room.

As Mia completed her bedtime routine and settled into bed, she couldn’t shake the surreal feeling of the

day, as if it were a dream.

It was almost unbelievable that she had truly become the legitimate heiress of the Lane family!

However, Mia decided not to inform Patricia about this just yet, concerned that Edna and Karen might

fake knowledge of the situation.

It seemed wiser to wait until she traveled to Nord City with her brothers before divulging the news to

Patricia.

A gentle smile adorned Mia’s lips as a wave of relief swept over her. Could this be the dawn of her

newfound freedom as a carefree heiress?

In the morning, Mia swiftly finished her breakfast and made her way to campus, keen to avoid any

encounters with Edna and Karen at home.

As she approached the entrance of her neighborhood, she noticed Connor waiting for her outside.

“How was your sleep last night?” Connor inquired.

“Fine,” Mia responded.

“It might be wise for you to find another place to stay for now. With Edna and Karen around, I’m

concerned about your well–being, especially considering your pregnancy.

“If anything were to happen to you, I wouldn’t know how to face Dominic,” Connor added earnestly.

Mia foll

silent for a moment. “I understand. I’ll have a conversation with Aunt Patricia about finding

another place to stay. Plus, once my exams are finished, I’ll be able to leave.”

“Mia, when do you intend to tell Dominic about your pregnancy?” Connor asked.

Mia hesitated for a moment before replying. “What do you think?”

Connor’s expression grew uneasy. “Maybe it’s best to hold off until we’re back in Nord City to bring it

up.

You know how Dominic reacted last time when I kept Timothy’s relationship with you a secret,” Connor

suggested.

“Thank you, Connor, for everything you’ve done for me. I honestly don’t think I’d have made it this far

without your support,” Mia expressed her gratitude.

“Don’t worry about it. You’re my sister. I’ve got your back,” Connor reassured Mia.

As Mia sat in Connor’s car on the way to campus, she suddenly remembered something. “By the way.

what are you planning to do about Maya?”

“That crazy woman? We’ll just hand her over to the police. The Barretts will also have to take

responsibility. This will be a legal nightmare for Maya.”

Mia acknowledged with a nod, yet she couldn’t shake the overwhelming feeling brought on by the

sudden

shift in her newfound identity.

“Mia, please don’t sympathize with Maya. She’s lived a comfortable life as the Lane family heiress all

these years, which was far more than she deserves.

“Despite this, she remains unsatisfied. She even attempted to conceal your identity and have Dana

take your place,” Connor explained further.

“She wanted Dana to replace me?” Mia exclaimed in disbelief.

would lead to this.” Mia confessed.

Indeed, the frailty of human hearts became apparent when confronted with temptation.

As Mia entered the university, a heavy weight settled in her chest. She struggled to comprehend why

Dana would want to replace her.

Sitting in the study hall, Mia couldn’t help but notice the numerous glances directed her way, which left

Mia felt uneasy under the scrutiny.

Suddenly, her phone vibrated with a message: “Come downstairs!”

It was from Timothy.

Mia headed to the corridor and glimpsed at a car parked below. It seemed Timothy had indeed arrived.

“Either you come down, or I’ll come up.”
