Chapter 242

“She mentioned running into her adoptive parents and said she’d be a bit late.”

“Adoptive parents?”

Connor couldn’t help but frown. Bob and Mary seemed to have a knack for causing trouble,

showing up to bother Mia again.

Felix cautiously spoke up. “There’s something I’ve been wanting to ask since a moment ago.”

Connor turned his attention to Felix, asking, “What do you want to know?”

“I genuinely don’t have any ulterior motives. It’s just that seeing all of you at the engagement ceremony

caught me by surprise. Are you somehow related to Ms. Lane? Mia has never

mentioned this before.”

When Mia met Maya, her demeanor was distant, lacking the warmth a person might expect

between relatives.

Connor raised an eyebrow, realizing he had almost forgotten about this matter.

Initially, they thought Mia would be present today, and there seemed to be no need to conceal

their identities.

However, with Mia absent, the situation had taken an unexpected turn.

Clearing his throat, Connor explained, “Well, we’re distant relatives.”

Felix nodded in response and added, “Considering the significance of Ms. Lane’s engagement, it’s

quite surprising that her family hasn’t made an appearance.”

“Engagement doesn’t carry the same weight as marriage. Societal norms have evolved.”

“Yeah, you’re right.”

Felix didn’t dwell too much on it, acknowledging his unfamiliarity with aristocratic family

dynamics.

However, the revelation about Mia’s connection to the esteemed Lane family in Nord City caught him

off guard.

No wonder Maya was adamant about having Mia design the wedding venue right from the start.

It turned out there was this hidden layer of connection!

It became apparent that Mia harbored some undisclosed secrets. Felix would need to invest more

effort to win her affection.

Connor returned to his seat with a troubled expression. “Mia still hasn’t arrived. I asked Felix, and

he mentioned that Mia ran into her adoptive parents this morning.”

Dominic’s expression hardened. “I just tried calling Mia, but her phone is off. What if something

happened to her when she ran into her adoptive parents?”

The three men, initially feeling uneasy, not only hesitated to contact Mia but also refrained from

stepping outside.

Little did they anticipate Mia’s absence.

Connor fidgeted in his seat, his impatience evident. “We can’t just sit here. Let’s go back and

investigate. We shouldn’t set our expectations too high for those scumbags.”

Rising from his chair, Dominic declared, “I’ve asked Eva to contact the property management and

review the surveillance footage to determine exactly what happened with Mia.”

In unison, the three men stood up, prepared to depart.

Maya entered hastily, addressing them. “Dominic, Nathan, Connor, where are you headed?”

Dominic met her gaze, inquiring, “Where’s Timothy?”

Maya’s expression instantly stiffened. “I just reviewed the surveillance. Once Tim left the main.

hall, he simply walked away.”

Connor scoffed, “Clearly, he lacks any sense of responsibility.”

Maya’s hands clenched, and she demanded, “Connor, I want to know the details of your

conversation. Why did Tim leave without a word?”

Since Timothy made an appearance today, it seemed he was committed to his role.

Maya genuinely couldn’t comprehend why Timothy had left so abruptly, and her attempts to reach him

were in vain as he continued to ignore her calls.

In a composed manner, Connor explained, “Our conversation was straightforward. I advised him to

commit to you in the future and refrain from any involvement with other women.

“If he chooses otherwise, he won’t get off lightly.”

If Timothy harbored any intentions toward Mia, he would undoubtedly face the consequences.

Maya’s expression softened slightly, and she suggested, “Perhaps Timothy had some urgent

With a hint of disappointment, Dominic remarked, “There’s no need to wait. I have pressing matters to

address. I’ll take my leave.”

Maya’s complexion instantly paled. “Dominic, where are you all going? Is there something more

important than my engagement?”
