Love and Devotion No Longer His to Claim by Dream Fish

Chapter 318

"Since you've been so well-behaved today, pick anything you want to eat." Angela patted Zack's shoulder, a hint of approval in her eyes.

It was just around mealtime, and Zack immediately thought of a steakhouse on the fourth floor of the mall.

Angela didn't object. The three of them chatted merrily as they headed upstairs.

Zack soon started his flattery again. "Mia, I heard you and Zayn broke up. You're amazing! In my eyes, you're just as awesome as my sister."

"You sure know how to sweet-talk, huh?" Mia's smile faded slightly. It was obvious she wasn't keen on the topic.

Most others, whether openly or behind her back, were criticizing her, calling her delusional, saying she had overestimated herself and had never been worthy of the Jewell family's son.

Mia didn't care about the gossip. Even while pregnant, she hadn't been idle. In the past few days, she had invested in an entertainment company with a friend, and soon, she would see returns.
