Chapter 52
Mia seemed to have become a completely different person after signing those divorce papers. Timothy
was finding her harder to read as time passed.
At this moment, his phone pinged. He saw a push notification for a trending topic-it was about Linden’s
new relationship.
His brows furrowed tightly. He clicked on it to see a photo of Mia’s and another man’s backs. She wore
her champagne-colored dress, which swished with every step she took.
Timothy’s fingers twitched as he recalled how it felt when her dress had brushed against the back of his
hand. His Adam’s apple bobbed. He sipped his water before summoning Heath. “Have someone take
this trending topic down.”
“Yes, sir. Should I also look into which studio Mrs. Barrett has gone to?”
Timothy gave him a cold look. “Don’t you have anything better to do? Get out!”
Mia took a cab to Felix’s studio. It was located in a creative industry center that had been refurbished
from an old steel plant. It exuded creative vibes.
Mia walked into the studio. The receptionist approached her and asked, “Are you here for an
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtinterview?”
“You could say that. Is Felix in?”
“Not at the moment. You can take a seat over there while waiting.”
Mia headed to the visitor’s waiting area. Then, someone called out to her. “Mia Bowen?”
She stopped and turned to see a familiar face. It was Wilhelmina. Mia was a little surprised. “What a
coincidence.”
“Indeed. What are you doing here?” Wilhelmina asked.
The receptionist came over with a glass of water. “She’s here for an interview, Wilhelmina.”
Wilhelmina looked like she couldn’t believe her ears. “Would someone like you need to interview for a
position
at this tiny studio? Didn’t any of those established companies reach out to you?”
It didn’t make sense that the first-place winner of the Fleur International Design Competition, who was
also
Zoe, the renowned designer, would show up at Felix’s studio. Besides, Mia was involved with Linden
Lane!
Mia said calmly, “I have my considerations.”
A hint of wariness flashed in Wilhelmina’s eyes. “Do you and Felix know each other?”
“Yeah.”
“How do you two know each other?”

Wilhelmina’s tone sounded a little odd. Mia was about to answer when Felix returned to the studio. He
approached them and said, “You’re finally here, Mia.”
Wilhelmina asked doubtfully, “Do you two know each other, Felix?”
“Yeah. Mia was our junior in college; she’s a year below us. She had to drop out for personal reasons,
though,” Felix said.
“Oh, I see. Mia’s a renowned designer, though. How did you get her to agree to join us? Don’t tell me
you used your good looks and charisma to win her over.”

Mia understood the situation now. Her sixth sense told her that Wilhelmina had a crush on Felix.
“Come to my office, Mia,” Felix said.
Mia nodded. She didn’t say anything else.
Wilhelmina watched as they went to Felix’s office. Then, she pulled out her phone to make a call,
sounding sycophantic as she said, “Hi, is this Ms. Barrett? This is Wilhelmina Jones. Do you still
remember me? We exchanged numbers at the awards ceremony last night.”
“You’re that second-place winner, aren’t you? What is this about?”
Shelly had just woken up. She’d thought Wilhelmina was Zoe but had turned out to be wrong.
Surprisingly enough, Mia was actually Zoe.
This had put Shelly in such a bad mood that she hadn’t even had fun when partying last night. How
could someone as plain and dull as Mia be Zoe?
Wilhelmina didn’t get mad at Shelly’s haughty tone. “Are you familiar with Mia Bowen, Ms. Barrett?”
Shelly perked up at the mention of Mia. “What are you trying to say?”
