A smile flashed across Mia's face when she glanced at the text from Jasmine. It couldn't have shown up at a better moment.

"Are we going to directly reveal that Luna is Mr. Shelbert's illegitimate child?" "We can't do that. It'll make Jasmine suspicious. Just let her know that Mr. Shelbert secretly met with a young woman with a child, and he even made sure that they settled down snugly." She would make Jasmine believe that Luna was Raymond's mistress, and Asher his child. Usually, children from such families were deft in dealing with mistresses.
Wasn't Luna very pleased with her identity as the mayor's daughter? If Mia showed her the kind of life the actual mayor's daughter led, would she still be able to handle it? Luna's ambition was too much for her to be tolerant. Mia did promise not to expose her identity for now, but she couldn't be blamed if Luna were to blow her own cover.
Mia set her phone aside and turned to Peyton. "Head to the research institute." It had been days since she last visited Sage.
The car steered toward another direction and sped off to the research institute. Not far away, a black luxury car switched directions and trailed after Mia's car as well.

We're at a safe distance, and two cars are providing cover for us as well. She won't discover us that easily." Narrowing his eyes, Timothy fell silent.
Heath began tentatively, "So, are we still following them?" "Yes." As Timothy's gaze lingered upon Mia's car, he wondered where she was headed. It didn't matter if she eventually discovered him stalking her.
He inquired, "Do you have any updates regarding the bone marrow at the hospital?" Timothy had already confirmed that Ginger wasn't ill at all. So, Mia had been desperate to deceive him into donating his bone marrow to save someone else. Did she still have another child hidden away? n He could hardly sleep once he learned this information. Yet, he couldn't find any evidence regarding Mia's other child despite his thorough investigation. Only Mia's daughter was known to the public, and there was no mention of any other child. Besides that, none of the Lane brothers had children either.
Staring at Mia's car ahead, Timothy pondered the secrets she had kept from him.
Warm city lights dotted along the view outside the car window, creating a cozy ambiance. She had always envied familial love when she was an orphan. With her brothers and children keeping her company now, she no longer felt lonely.
Timothy's car pulled up at the roadside not far away. He glanced over at the pristine building before him. "Where is this?" Timothy's expression hardened upon the mention of Nicholas' name. Was Nicholas the main reason behind her sudden visit? Why didn't she head hinstead after the banquet at this late hour?
