Chapter 249

Mia braced herself for a potential fall, yet it never occurred.

Instead, she managed to regain her balance, each of her hands firmly held by someone who prevented her from stumbling.

A lingering fear enveloped her. What if she had indeed fallen? What repercussions would it have on the baby growing in her belly?

Reflecting on her loss of composure during the confrontation with Bob and Mary, Mia recognized the pitfalls of impulsiveness.

She attempted to withdraw her hand, but both men held on firmly.

A moment of silence enveloped the air.

After exchanging a glance with Felix and Timothy, they eventually released Mia’s hands. Upon regaining her freedom, she cleared her throat and uttered, “Thank you.”

Felix grinned. “No problem. After all, if you got hurt, it would be considered a workplace injury. I’m just trying to save money for the studio.”

Mia couldn’t help but chuckle. “Well, then I better watch my step and not empty the studio’s pockets.”

Observing the playful exchange between Mia and Felix, Timothy pursed his lips and shot Felix a cold look.

Noticing Timothy’s reaction, Felix acknowledged him, saying, “Mr. Barrett, thanks for your assistance earlier.”

Timothy was momentarily taken aback. For the first time in his life; he felt the impulse to swear. Thanks, my ass!
