Chapter 113

Following Kennedy’s words, unease washed over Mia like an unwelcome tide.

She shot a hesitant glance toward Timothy, silently pleading with her eyes.

Timothy responded casually saying, “It’s alright.”

A sense of relief flooded Mia as she watched Kennedy usher Timothy his seat.

Timothy sat in the front row, signifying his esteemed position.

Puzzled, Mia wondered about Timothy’s unexpected presence, considering his demanding schedule.

However, the reason would soon unfold.

As Mia ascended the stage, Timothy, the generous sponsor behind the financial grant, took the initiative to personally bestow the awards upon the worthy recipients.

Mia observed Timothy’s polished appearance and graceful demeanor.

With the award certificate in hand, he cast a patronizing glance her way, remarking, “Keep up the good work.”

Suppressing her true sentiments, Mia offered a forced smile as she took the certificate, momentarily

entertaining a rebellious urge to confront him head–on.

The award ceremony concluded swiftly, and without glancing behind her, Mia exited the lecture hall.

She believed that by maintaining her brisk pace, she could avoid any unwanted encounters.
