Mia remained calm as she said, “This is my own choice. Thank you for your concern.”
“I wasn’t concerned about you,” Wilhelmina replied.
Wilhelmina turned around and noticed that Shelly had arrived. She immediately greeted Shelly with a
smile. ” Ms. Barrett, you’re finally here. The design that you wanted is ready.”
Shelly walked in arrogantly while carrying her luxurious handbag. She looked directly at Mia and asked,
“Did
you get fired?”
Mia ignored Shelly.
Wilhelmina quickly explained the situation to Shelly. “She’s planning to return to school to continue her
studies. You know that she took a two-year break from school, right?”
Shelly knew about the situation as it was her aunt who had forced Mia to take a break from school so
that Mia

Shelly fiddled with her newly done nails and said, “Even if she graduates from college, a woman like
her could
only work odd jobs. Why waste two years studying? It’s better for her to start working early and earn
more
money.”
Mia put down the files she was holding and looked at Shelly. “Are you suggesting that I should be as
uneducated as you?”
Shelly angrily retorted, “What do you mean?”
“I mean what I said. If you don’t understand what I’m talking about, perhaps you should attend
elementary
school again. After all, even elementary students can understand what I’m talking about.”
Shelly was baffled by her words. After Mia left, she turned to Wilhelmina and asked, “Was she insulting
me?”
Wilhelmina nodded awkwardly and said, “Yes, that’s right.”
After Mia packed her things and left, she soon received a call from Felix.
“You packed up and left so soon? Aren’t you planning to come back?” Felix asked.
“I’m not leaving for good. I just wanted some time to get ready for school exams.”
“Alright. Remember to come back to work during the weekend. I asked someone to compile some
revision
materials for you, and I’ve sent them to your email.”
“Okay, thank you.”
After hanging up, Mia started preparing for the upcoming school exams. She had taken a two-year
break from school and didn’t manage to participate in all exams back then. This time, she was taking
the exams with all the freshmen. She would only be able to resume her studies if she passed the exam.
In the afternoon, she suddenly received a call from the Barrett family. “Mrs. Barrett, something bad

Upon hearing this call, Mia’s mind went blank. She grabbed her bag and rushed to the hospital where
Laura was receiving treatment.
Mia prayed hard that Laura would be okay.
When she arrived at the private hospital, many people were already there.
Mia saw Timothy standing at the front. His figure looked depressed and lonely. She knew that Laura
meant a
lot to Timothy.
Shelly sneered when she saw Mia. She said, “Why are you here?”
As soon as Shelly spoke, everyone except Timothy turned to look at Mia.
Mia walked over to Timothy and said, “Mrs. Barrett Senior has always treated me well. Now that she’s
sick, it’s only right for me to come and see her.”
Ignoring the gazes of everyone else, Mia stood by Timothy’s side and asked, “Why did Grandma Laura
faint?”
