Chapter 449
Seeing Dana had fallen for her offer, Maya replied instantly, “In fact, I’ve been thinking about this on my
way here too. But I haven’t had the chance to ask Mia, so I came to you first.”
Dana mulled over her response. How should she reply?
“Are you the one I’m looking for?” Maya continued in a suggestive drawl. She had just retold the entire
incident, promising Dana countless benefits. Anyone with a bit of sense in them would know what to
do.
She was all too familiar with the discrimination and contempt Dana faced as an orphan. Thus, she was
certain that Dana wouldn’t hesitate to seize her only opportunity, just like how she did with Dominic.
Only then was she able to lead a luxurious life.
In the next instant, Dana nodded her head in guilt. “I’m the one you’re looking for.”
A triumphant smile played on Maya’s lips. Visibly touched, she took Dana’s hand and cried, “Is it really

“It’s been years since we last met, and we’ve all changed. If it wasn’t for the piano piece, I wouldn’t
have recognized you.”
Dana forced a smile. “Yeah, we all look different when we grow up, don’t we?”
It was about time for Maya to throw in the question. “Oh yeah, how did Mia know that piece as well?”
“I–I taught her. We’re from the same orphanage, after all. I cherished our bond, so I taught her the
piece.
“Really? So, she’s from the orphanage too. When was she there? Was she at the orphanage when I
was
there?”
Sweat began to clad Dana’s forehead as guilt overwhelmed her. In a hurry to come up with a shoddy
excuse, she blurted, “Maybe. I can’t really remember. But Mia doesn’t remember anything either.
“She fell sick when she was.a child, and she couldn’t remember anything from the orphanage.”
“Did she really forget everything?”
Maya finally knew why Connor and the Lane cousins didn’t discover Mia’s identity despite having spent
so much time with her. She had lost her memory.
Even God was helping Maya. She could barely contain her glee. So, it turned out that Mia had
forgotten everything that happened at the orphanage.
Dana probed cautiously, “Ms. Lane, if you don’t believe me, you can ask Mia.”
“No need for that. Of course, I trust you. You’re the friend I trusted most when I was a kid, after all.”

Holding Dana’s hand suddenly reminded Maya of the way she used to hold Mia’s hand. She looked like
a doll back then, and she remembered telling her that they were best friends.
Indeed, her best friend had given her a glamorous life.

A weight had been lifted off Maya’s chest. As long as Mia couldn’t remember what happened at the
orphanage, the Lane family wouldn’t know she was the real daughter of their family.
She found Connor to be too nice to Mia, though. Was this because they were cousins?
This thought plunged her into a state of unease. Why couldn’t Mia just disappear forever?
It was already absurd enough for her to marry Timothy three years ago when he was still in an induced
coma. She risked marrying a man who would be dead anytime.
Nevertheless, Maya underestimated Mia’s ambition. Why didn’t she see through her back then?
Suppressing the doubt arising in her chest, she glanced at Dana. “Give me your contact. We’re friends
from now on, okay?
“If you need anything, don’t hesitate to let my assistant know. He’ll sort it out for you.”
