Chapter 525 Premeditated Provocation Mia's words drew everyone's attention.

I couldn't help but feel a surge of relief.

Seeing that Arthur hosted this, Mia was the true elite here.

This was the second time I had seen Mia, and both times, she had come to my rescue.

I wasn't afraid of dealing with this woman, but I didn't want any unpleasantness around me. That would be a disgrace to Atlas. After all, whether in public or private, I was Atlas's woman.

The feisty woman shot a fierce look at Mia.

Mia's words, though not heavy, were exact. They left the sharp-tongued woman utterly defeated.

She stood before the crowd, nearly naked, with just three pieces of fabric covering the essentials. If this wasn't low-class, what was it? "Who the hell are you? How dare you come looking for trouble?" The woman glared at Mia, her tone sharp.

Mia had been studying abroad and had only recently returned to Foswood, so few people truly knew her. I only knew this from the crash course Lauren gave me after meeting Mia at the celebration held by ATL Empire.

With an air of arrogance, Mia glanced at the woman. She then looked at Liora and the others enjoying the spectacle.

"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that you pay attention to your image. This is a formal occasion, not a nightclub. Don't prance around like a showgirl. Otherwise, you better roll back into the water before you scorch someone's eyes!" Mia seemed to be one tough nut, scolding without using a single curse word. Impressive! I almost burst out laughing. Her description was remarkably accurate.

Laughter and sneers of agreement echoed from the surrounding crowd.

The woman, evidently combative, took a step toward Mia. "What did you say? You'd better listen well. If you're in cahoots with her, I advise you to have some sense."

"Then let's see what you're going to do." Mia stood her ground, fearless.

Seeing that Mia wasn't backing down, the woman flew into a rage. She took a swift step forward and raised her hand.

But Mia was even quicker. I couldn't quite tell how she lifted her leg, but the woman was kicked back into the swimming pool.

The woman in the water, perhaps surprised by the sudden fall, seemed to have forgotten how to swim. She struggled desperately, nearing exhaustion.

Some onlookers by the shore laughed gleefully, others looked on in astonishment at the woman's plight, and a few even shared mocking

remarks.

I saw Liora say something to the person behind her, and the woman promptly ran off.

Mia glanced at me, her tone aloof. "I'm impressed by your restraint. You truly have remarkable composure to endure an insult like that." I'looked at the other side and mumbled, "I didn't want to cause any discord over me. It's clear, the real troublemakers are over there!" Mia gave the other side a disdainful glance, "Hmph! Today, I'll give them a taste of their own medicine. Some people never learn!" The commotion in the water was quite loud. Mia surveyed the scene, and when the woman finally resurfaced,

gasping for air, Mia couldn't help but roll her eyes.

The woman wiped the water from her face and spat it, coughing. Once she caught her breath, she pointed a finger at Mia and yelled, "You wretch! How dare you lay your hands on me? Someone, come—"" I glanced at the direction she was pointing to. A few wealthy heirs were leisurely spectating. She pointed at them in hysteria. "Are you all blind? Didn't you see I was attacked? Branson, didn't you see someone laid hands on me?" A red-haired youngster with a thick gold chain around his neck took bold strides toward us, swearing as he walked.

"Do you guys have a death wish, huh?

How dare you hit her? Do you know who she is? Ah?" The youngster bellowed as he approached.

However, just as he was about to get closer, a staff member standing by the poolside suddenly delivered a sidekick.

The swift and seamless move showed that this was no ordinary staff member.

In an instant, the red-haired youngster, much like the earlier obstinate woman, was dramatically propelled backward, flying through the air and landing with a splash back into the pool.
