Chapter 312
“Yes, that’s true. However, given my background as a designer, I cannot simply turn down a
design offer, can I?”
When it came to styling her ex–husband, Mia was open to the idea, albeit with a price attached.
Charging ten thousand dollars per session was indeed a lucrative venture, to say the least.
Timothy casually handed the phone to Holly, instructing her, “Go ahead and make the necessary
arrangements. I’ve got other matters to take care of.”
Mia gritted her teeth and insisted, “Payment upfront, please.”
Timothy swiftly retrieved his phone, transferring the agreed–upon amount to Mia.
As Mia observed the ten thousand dollars reflected in her bank account, she took a deep breath
and adopted a professional smile.
“Could you share any specific preferences you have for the outfit or details about the occasion you’re preparing for?”
Timothy arched an eyebrow, impressed by Mia’s rapid shift in attitude. He responded casually,” I’ve got a business gala to attend this weekend.”
With that, Timothy exited the bedroom.
Mia leaned back, taking a moment to think.
While she knew exactly what Timothy should wear to a business gala, executing the task would be a tough pill for her to swallow.
As Mia looked at the recently deposited ten thousand dollars, a sudden dea struck her..
“Holly, please open the bottom drawer. You’ll find a bright red suit inside. Pair it with these, and then just leave the outfit right there.”
Holly glanced at the vibrant red ensemble skeptically. “Are you sure about this?”
Timothy’s wardrobe had typically been dominated by neutral tones like black, white, and gray.
Making the colorful choice seem unconventional.
“You can trust my judgment, Holly. There’s no need to worry. I’m the one planning the outfit, so you can leave it to me,” Mia assured.
She was well aware that the chosen outfit was not something Timothy would typically opt for.

That was precisely why Mia picked it.
Given Timothy’s considerable trust in Mia, she might as well capitalize on it this time.
Having successfully coordinated the outfit, Mia left the marital villa in high spirits.
After catching a taxi, she arrived at the entrance of her neighborhood.
Feeling a bit hungry, Mia decided to satisfy her cravings with some tacos from a nearby street
vendor.
As she was about to savor her meal, Connor’s voice surprised her from behind. “Mia, what are you
eating?”
Upon hearing Connor’s voice, Mia’s posture briefly tensed.
As she turned around and noticed Connor exiting the car, an uneasy expression graced her face.
“I was feeling a bit hungry, so I decided to grab a late–night snack,” Mia explained.
Certainly, she couldn’t admit to Connor that she hadn’t eaten dinner, as that would probably result
in another scolding.
Approaching her, Connor joined in by ordering some tacos and remarked, “Watching you eat made
me hungry too.”
Observing Connor’s unperturbed demeanor, Mia felt a sense of relief.
Seated across from each other, the siblings relished their tacos together. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Once they finished, they strolled side by side back to the residential area.
Mia was aware that Connor also owned property within the community, so she wasn’t surprised
to bump into him outside her neighborhood.
“Mia, you don’t look well today,” Connor observed.
Mia instinctively touched her face and chuckled, “Oh, do I? Perhaps it’s just the strain from my
demanding workload lately.”
“Mia, considering you’re pregnant with twins, I think it would be wise for you to consider taking a break from work and focusing on your studies.”
After a brief pause, Mia responded, “I understand, Connor. I’ll have a conversation with Felix at the
studio later.”
Recently, Mia found herself grappling with work challenges, primarily due to the attention from

These factors have made it particularly difficult for Mia to cope.
To mitigate potential misunderstandings, Mia decided it was best to maintain a low profile.
Connor tenderly touched her head and asked, “Mia, being a single mother is no easy task. Are you certain you want to keep Timothy’s children?”
