Chapter 66
Undaunted by Maya’s question, Mia placed the design paper on the table confidently. “Yes, that’s me.
When is Timothy coming back?”
“He’s working overtime today, so I don’t know when he’s coming back. You can tell me everything since
I live with him anyway.” Maya grabbed the design paper and began perusing it on the couch.
Silence returned to the living room. Only the noise of pages being leafed through could be heard.
Mia stood in the same spot. The quietness amplified the ticking of time. Maya put down the design
paper and asked, “Ms. Bowen, I like your design here, but certain details need to be tweaked. I’m
thinking of having a photo wall for our wedding photos. Where do you think we should display it?”
Wedding photos? Mia recalled that when Timothy and she got married, Timothy absolutely refused to
hang their wedding photos. Laura had to keep bugging him to change his mind. And now that he was
with Maya, he wanted a photo wall. Now she knew who was more important.

like.”
“I want your opinion because you’re the professional here.”
Mia pointed at the wall facing the main entrance. “That’s a nice spot. You’ll see the photos when you
walk in.”
Maya nodded contentedly. “By the way, we need a new mattress too. I want something softer to
improve our sleep quality. Timothy hasn’t had enough sleep lately because the mattress is too hard.”
Mia breathed out slowly. “There are a lot of brands available, even the luxurious ones. I’m not an expert
in this. Perhaps I can redirect you to sales?”
“You’re the designer. You’ll help us pick the mattress, too, yeah?”
Mia nodded. “Sure, I can come with you.” Her smile did not betray the scowl she just let out internally.

Maya grinned widely. “Great. When we’re free, we’ll give you a call. I hope we can make it work this
time.”
Mia glanced at the design paper. “No problem. If there’s nothing else, please repeal the complaint.”
Maya dismissed it awkwardly. “I will in a bit.”
Mia took out her phone and showed Maya the page to complete the simple process. “It’s easy. Just
sign here.”
“Timothy lodged the complaint, so by right, he should sign it.”
“Don’t worry. It’s your marital home. You can sign it, too. Unless you think you don’t have the right to
sign it?” Maya immediately signed the agreement to repeal the complaint.
As soon as Maya signed it, Mia let out a sigh of relief. Her hard work had paid off.
While Maya often said something nasty, she would sign the agreement once she was satisfied. To
make Timothy sign, however, would be a mission impossible.

Before Mia left. Maya called out, “Ms. Bowen, can I ask you something? Who’s the male partner that
came with you to the banquet last time?”
Mia turned around and replied calmly. “I believe this is my privacy.”
Maya was slightly annoyed. “You know, I was happy that you finally returned to your place. After all,
we’re not from the same worlds. This was great for everyone, but I see that you haven’t given up. You
want to enter the circle you never belong to. And in the end, you’re just going to hurt yourself.”
“What a gold digger.” Maya thought. Right after Timothy dumped her, she found Liam. She was like an
eyesore
who refused to go away.
Hearing Maya’s statement, Mia raised her eyebrows. “You’re right. But can I say something to you,
too?”
