Let’s start all over again,shall we?

Chapter 161 Grumpy

After hanging up the phone, Maggie retrieved her luggage and located the spot Mia had mentioned.

Her heart wasn’t quite in the moment as she climbed into the car, and her mind was still clouded by worry over Nathael’s injury.

Mia glanced at her, unable to help herself, and blurted out, “What’s up with you? Got dumped?”

Maggie turned to look at the woman beside her, the embodiment of allure with her wavy hair and slip dress. She said flatly, “I’m the one who dumps, not the other way around.”

“Sure, sure, so why the long face?” If Mia wasn’t driving, she’d have tossed Maggie a mirror.

Mulling over her thoughts, Maggie flipped down the sunvisor, and her reflection in the mirror revealed a beautiful face with a desolute expression.

With a sigh, Maggie confessed flatly. She sighed and said, “My baby got hurt, I’m feeling a bit down right

now.”

“What baby? Should I help you fix it?” Mia’s eyebrows arched, and there was a hint of curiosity in her voice.

Silence lingered for a few seconds before Maggie let out another sigh. She revealed, “It’s Nathael. He can’t be fixed.”

Mia was speechless for a moment.

“What happened to Nathael? Was it a serious injury to a vital part of his body?”

“Yes,” Maggie nodded earnestly.

Mia frowned and remarked, “That’s tricky, especially with that kind of injury. Hmm.”

Lost in her own thoughts, Maggie failed to fully understand Mia’s implication. After a while, she turned to her and asked, “What kind of injury?”

“You said he hurt a vital part of his body, right?” Mia asked with a knowing look.

Maggie was silent again.

“If it’s that bad, we might have to get a replacement, right? I can’t compromise your happiness for a lifetime over this,” Mia advised earnestly, though her brows were knit in concern.

“He hurt his arm, not…” Maggie paused, too exasperated to finish her sentence.

Mia was stunned. Realizing the misunderstanding, she quickly corrected herself and asked, “Then why so gloomy?”
