Mia let out a faint sigh. “No, Linden simply did me a favor, that’s all,” she murmured.

Indeed, the ambiguous announcement from Linden worked like a charm.

Felix’s eyes carried a discerning gaze. “Mia, I never thought you’d be acquainted with Linden!” heexclaimed.

Mia shot a glance at Wilhelmina, who wore a displeased expression.

“Honestly, having Linden’s assistance doesn’t hold much significance, you know,” Mia remarked with atouch

of sarcasm.

Upon hearing this, Wilhelmina couldn’t help but feel a pang of jealousy.

After all, she was no less accomplished than Mia, so why did Mia seem to have such greatconnections, even rubbing shoulders with the renowned Linden Lane?

Mia checked the time, noting that their guests should be arriving soon.

Offering a strained smile to Wilhelmina, Mia assured, “Felix, don’t worry. I’ll explain everything later.”

“Mia, if you have evidence. Just present it,” Felix suggested, his tone tinged with suspicion.

“It’s not the right time yet.”

Wilhelmina scoffed coldly, “Mia, you keep insisting you have evidence, yet you’re withholding it. Whowould believe your words? Linden is just an actor, after all.

“In the chaotic entertainment industry, he probably slept with countless wealthy ladies and old men toattain his current position. Just because Linden supports you doesn’t mean you can clear your name.”

“Wilhelmina, your breath stinks. Did you forget to brush your teeth this morning? Linden has come thisfar based on his talent.

“You’re just spreading baseless rumors. Didn’t your mother teach you any decency?” Mia retorted.

She wasn’t going to tolerate anyone tarnishing Linden’s reputation. After all, Liam served as Linden’sstunt double, and both of them had invested significant effort over the years.

Raising her voice, Wilhelmina shot back, “Oh, getting defensive, aren’t you? Could it be that I’ve hit anerve?”

Mia took a deep breath. Suddenly, she felt that certain individuals didn’t deserve any sympathy at all.

As a fellow woman, Mia had extended multiple chances for Wilhelmina to come clean and be openabout the situation.

Nevertheless, with this impending evidence about to circulate on the internet, Wilhelmina might as wellwave goodbye to her reputation for the rest of her life.

Indeed, some individuals simply didn’t deserve a chance, and Wilhelmina served as a prime exampleof such a malicious woman.

Turning to Felix, Mia declared, “Felix, I think you’re right. I’ll upload the evidence online right now, andthat

should bring the truth to light.”

Felix nodded in agreement. “Sounds like a good idea.”

Putting on a show of confidence, Wilhelmina challenged, “Go ahead, upload it. Let’s all take a look.”

Deep down, Wilhelmina was convinced that Mia was fabricating lies. If there were evidence, Mia wouldhave

presented it long ago.

How could Mia remain so composed and wait until now? Wilhelmina was certain Mia was attempting to

deceive her, but she wouldn’t be fooled!

At that very moment, several imposing figures stormed into the studio.

The woman at the forefront of the group appeared oddly familiar–indeed, it was Fiona, the daughter ofKeegan.

who had visited earlier.

Wilhelmina couldn’t help but chuckle, her face adorned with a smug expression. “Mia, it looks likesomeone’s

“You did claim to have evidence, right? I’d suggest clearing things up sooner rather than later to

unnecessary trouble.”

Mia’s lips curled into a cold smirk as she retorted, “Oh, is that how you see it? I believe the one whoneeds to

explain might not be me after all.”

“Not you? Who else could it be? Of course, it’s you!” Wilhelmina fixed her gaze on the advancingFiona, a

momentary flicker of unease passing across her expression.

Nevertheless. Wilhelmina swiftly regained her composure, confident that Fiona held Mia responsible forthe

situation.

With a triumphant air, she addressed Fiona, saying, “Just moments ago, Mia was boasting abouthaving evidence to prove her innocence.”

Before she could savor her words, Fiona abruptly delivered a resounding slap to Wilhelmina’s face.

Stunned, Wilhelmina stammered, “W–Why did you hit me?”
