Upon learning of Dominic’s impending arrival, Mia couldn’t help but feel
nervous.
If Dominic were to arrive before Mia finalized her divorce with Timothy, he would
undoubtedly inquire about the reasons, leaving Jason with no means to conceal the truth.
Given Dominic’s volatile temperament, Mia feared that he might stir up trouble for
Timothy upon discovering the
situation.
Mia was determined to devise a plan. quickly. She couldn’t afford any further delays.
The next day, Mia headed to the
university study hall as usual, but Dana was nowhere to be seen.

decided to send Dana a message. “Dana, are you still planning to come to the study hall
today?”
Knowing Dana’s sensitivity and pride, Mia felt it was crucial to explain things clearly to
her, especially considering their shared background as orphans.
Unbeknownst to Mia, Dana was currently at a luxurious beauty salon. Passing her phone to
Maya, she informed, “Mia just sent me a WhatsApp message.”

underestimating you. How could she humiliate you like that yesterday?
“Honestly, I believe you outshine her in every aspect. Why would this wealthy, handsome
guy choose her over you?” Maya remarked.
Hearing Maya’s words, Dana couldn’t shake off the memory of the embarrassing incident
from the day before. It had left her so distressed that she hadn’t been able to sleep all
night.
As she walked around campus that

morning, she couldn’t shake the fear of being mocked for her perceived audacity.
Maya pulled out her phone and accessed the campus forum.
“People are already discussing
yesterday’s confession incident outside the study hall, and some are suggesting that you
were being delusional. It’s infuriating to read these comments.”
Dana’s complexion paled. “What should I do now?”
“Well, I’m certain this issue can be
quickly resolved. The man from
yesterday is a wealthy tycoon. It’s unlikely he would have any real interest
in Mia.
“Their interaction was probably just a result of their previous encounter at the university
hall. Mia flirted with him for wealth, only to end up playing hard to get.
“Besides, you may have heard about her success in winning the Fleur International Design
Competition and securing scholarships from the

university, which some suggest were acquired through her involvement as a sugar baby.”
Upon hearing this, Dana’s jealousy only intensified. Why was Mia so fortunate to captivate
such a handsome and wealthy man? She yearned for that opportunity herself!
Maya smiled knowingly. “As long as you expose Mia’s true colors, her reputation will be
tarnished. After all, wealthy individuals are very concerned about their image and will
surely distance themselves from her.”
“Wouldn’t that be too much?” Dana
hesitated. Mia had been kind to her, and Dana already felt guilty for taking Mia’s place as
the Lane family heiress’s childhood companion.
“Dana, if you don’t act, how will you protect your reputation at the university once this
forum’s contents spread?”
This statement struck a chord with Dana. After all, she highly valued her reputation

and dreaded the thought of being judged by others.
After some hesitation, Dana eventually accepted the USB drive from Maya, nodding
reluctantly. “Okay, but what if Mia discovers this?”
“Don’t worry, even if she does, she won’t be able to harm you. By then, Mia will have her
own issues to deal with. And besides, what’s there to fear? You still have me, don’t you?”
Hearing this reassurance, Dana felt

hand, Dana was ready to leave when
Maya stopped her.
“Why don’t you finish your beauty
treatment before you go? You can use my beauty card for it. Just let the owner know if you
want any specific treatments.”
“Thank you, Ms. Lane.” Dana’s face brightened with surprise and greed. She had never
imagined indulging in such luxurious beauty treatments before.
Observing Dana’s hypocritical and vain

demeanor, Maya swiftly exited the private room, her smile disappearing in an instant.
“Keep a close watch on Dana, ensure she doesn’t stir up any trouble,” she directed.
“Ms. Lane, I’ve heard that Mr. Dominic is coming to Bern City. The exact date is unclear,
but it should be within the next few days.”
“I’m aware. Dominic will return for sure. After all, I’ve announced that we’ve found the
true heiress of the Lane family,
so it’s only natural for him to come,‘

Maya replied, her expression tinged with coldness.
Whenever the topic of the real heiress arose, the Lanes would show a noticeable sense of
urgency. It was during these
moments that Maya realized she was merely a stand–in.
