A hint of mockery flashed in Mia's eyes. In the past, she would've felt terrible. But now that she and Timothy were divorced, it didn't matter how many women were to stay in the villa. It had nothing to do with her.Mia stepped forward. "Hi—"Before she could finish, the beautiful woman ignored her and walked around the living room. Then, she said to the butler, Kaleb Gould, "Those curtains are hideous, and so is the couch. Remember to also change the beds in the bedrooms to the brand I like."Mia watched as this "guest" criticized every corner of her marital home. She said bluntly, "Who are you? We're not doing any renovations here.""Allow me to introduce myself—I'm Maya Lane, and I'm the future lady of this household. Naturally, that means I call the shots when it comes to this villa's furnishings.""You're Maya Lane?"A trace of bitterness crept into Mia's heart. It was no wonder Timothy had suddenly brought up the divorce. Maya was back.Since his first love was back, Mia,

Maya was secretly delighted but didn't let it show. She pretended to be magnanimous, saying, "I'll forgive you for Tim's sake."Mia straightened up and looked at Timothy. "Can I go now?"She didn't want to spend another second there. She bent down to pick the divorce agreement up and handed it to him. This time, her attitude was as firm as possible.Timothy looked at the divorce agreement and subconsciously frowned. He hadn't expected Mia to sign the papers without a fuss this time. Whenever he'd tried to do this in the past, she would have Laura help her.He'd already thought of the ways he could persuade Laura to see sense, but it seemed he wouldn't need to do anything.Timothy couldn't help feeling uncomfortable. He looked at Mia's suitcase. Was she leaving already?He looked at her. "Have you already found a place to stay?""No," Mia answered reflexively. She looked at him in surprise. Was he concerned about her?Timothy quickly averted his gaze. "Go downstairs to get some

Timothy saw the things that were strewn over the ground. They were all regular clothing. Mia hadn't taken a single branded item with her.Hadn't she married him because she wanted those things? He couldn't believe she hadn't taken any of it.Timothy's gaze landed on the dirty recyclable bag, and he frowned. "Are you playing hard to get again? Whose pity are you trying to win again? It's not like Grandma's here!"He hadn't let her down in any way throughout their three-year marriage, aside from not having feelings for her. He'd never been stingy with her.Even with the divorce, he was going to compensate her a huge sum. It was more than enough for her to live a comfortable life.Did she really want to leave, or was she just putting on an act?Mia held her phone tightly, still processing the news of her family having found her. In the past, she'd dreamed of her family finding her one day so she wouldn't be alone anymore.She was distracted by these thoughts, but in Timothy's eyes,

The bodyguards were there to pick Mia up?She looked at the helicopter and thought about how Patricia had told her that her family had sought Patricia out.Had these bodyguards really been sent by her family?Mia pinched her face, feeling like she was dreaming. There couldn't really be a helicopter here to take her home.She'd been dreaming for the past 20 years. Was it really coming true now?Maya looked at Mia mockingly. "You're a great actress, Mia. Where did you find these extras? They do a pretty good job. Look, once a peasant, always a peasant. No matter how hard you try to conceal it, you can't hide how poor you really are."I can't believe you even rented a helicopter for this! I bet this is your first time getting into one, you country bumpkin!"Before Mia could say anything, the bodyguard standing beside her gave Maya a hard slap. The force of it made her lose her balance and fall to the ground.Maya shrieked, "How dare you instruct this guy to slap me! Do you know wh

The smile on Mia's face faded at the sight of Bob and Mary. "I can't believe you guys have the nerve to say you're my saviors. When I almost starved to death in your home, Aunt Patricia was the one who gave me a bite to eat. Ultimately, you even forced her to raise me."Patricia was surprised. "How did you guys find this place? I didn't tell anyone about this."Mary put her hands on her hips. "How can you say that, Patricia? We're Mia's adoptive parents, but you're trying to take the credit. Dream on if you think you're getting away with that!"Bob spat on the floor. "Exactly. Where is her family? They must be rich since they can afford to stay in such an expensive hotel. We have to make them compensate us."They hadn't expected a child they'd picked up randomly to come from such a wealthy family. They'd struck the jackpot!Mia shielded Patricia behind her as she looked at Bob and Mary coldly. "You're the ones who can dream on. I won't give you a dime. Uncle James got into a fight
