Chapter 68
Maya’s eyes flickered when she met Timothy’s gaze.
“It’s true. If you don’t believe me, ask Holly then. She was there all the time.”
Timothy glanced over at Holly, who noticed the warning look in Maya’s eyes.
She lowered her head immediately as she stammered, “Mr. Barrett, I-I was in the kitchen. I didn’t really
see
what happened.”
Maya’s gaze tumed cold. She didn’t expect Holly to disobey her.
She hurriedly explained, “Tim, I didn’t know Ms. Bowen was the new designer. After all, you haven’t
been satisfied with all the designers I’ve found. Ms. Bowen was responsible for our home renovation
back then, so I
thought you’d like her design. That’s why I didn’t ask for your permission.”
With a stoic expression, Timothy strode toward the couch and picked up the design. It seemed so
much better
to him as he flipped through it.
When he saw the design of a photo wall on the first page, he frowned.
“What’s this?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Tim, I thought it’d be nice for us to have a photo wall here. What do you think?”
“I think it’s better to have a funeral portrait there,” Timothy snapped. (1
Maya was taken aback by his words.
She forced a smile as she replied, “T-Then forget about it.”
Timothy set down the design as he glanced up at her and asked, “What are you doing here?”
With a hard-set smile, Maya answered, “I bought some fresh seafood and was thinking of making some
for
you. I brought Mrs. Barrett some as well,”
“No need for that. Don’t do things like this in the future.”
Defiance flickered in Maya’s eyes as she watched Timothy ascending the stairs.
She turned toward Holly and dragged her to the kitchen.
A loud slap was delivered to Holly’s face as Maya scoffed, “What did you mean earlier? Didn’t you
understand what I meant? You’re going to be very sorry if it happens again!”
She vented her anger on Holly. There was no way she would let that bitch, Mia, off the hook for taking it
out on her..
When Mia arrived home, she realized there was a cut on her lips.

Patricia was worried about her.
“Why are you injured? Did someone hit you?*
“Nope. I just got this by accident. It’s not a big deal.”
After she disinfected her wound, she glanced over at Patricia as she asked, “Aunt Patricia, I’ve got my
eye on a few houses. Which one do you prefer?”
*Mia, Dominic is a real estate agent, right? Why don’t you ask him instead?”
“But he’s in Nord City. We’re in Bern City.”
After pondering it. Mia thought it would still be better to ask Dominic to prevent any unwanted troubles.
After all he was a professional, and there would be a lot of loopholes in buying a house.
She was planning to buy a pre-owned house. After all the new residences were way too far. She
wanted a house that was near the hospital so it would be easier for Patricia’s hospital visits.
After eating. Mia gave Dominic a call. She mentioned she was thinking of using her prize money to
purchase a house.
Thrilled, Dominic quickly replied, “I’ll take care of this! I’ll make sure to get you a cheap and affordable
house.”
He started texting in the group chat once the call was disconnected.
“Mia’s thinking of buying a house. Do you guys think a detached villa or a townhouse is better?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNathan replied, “A detached villa’s too over the top. How about a loft?”
The group chat was brimming with activity until Eva came and put a stop to all the drama.
Glancing at Dominic, she said, “None of these ideas work.”
“Why not, babe? I’ll find an excuse to convince Mia. Just say that we got a discount. She’ll take it.”
“Do you think Mia’s that dense? She only has a million dollars, and she’s planning to take out a
mortgage as well. It’s impossible
to purchase a villa or a loft near the Central Hospital of Bern City.”
Her words upset Dominic, and she continued, “I told my assistant to filter out some flats with elevators
as
long as the environment and safety are fine. Let’s take it one step at a time.”
Dominic stared at the villa, which was just one mile away from the flat, in despair.
Exasperated, he answered. “Then let’s purchase this as well. I’ll leave the villa for her in the future.”
“Sure. But make sure not to let her find out.”
When Mia received a video call from Dominic, she immediately picked it up.
“Dominic, any news regarding the houses?”
Dominic’s expression darkened in an instant.
“Mia, what happened to your face?”
