Mia's cheeks flushed, and Summer tilted her head with a teasing grin. “So that blood on your lip came from you biting him?”
Now it all made sense. No wonder Mia had blushed so hard when she had asked.
Jenna was practically grinding her teeth. She had suspected something happened between them in the restroom but had convinced herself it was just her imagination.
Hearing Hunter admit it felt like a stab of jealousy. That shameless Mia had really gone and seduced Hunter in there!
Hunter’s fingers rested on his lip, a slight smirk playing at the corner of his mouth as he looked at Mia. “What’s wrong? Not planning to take responsibility?”
Mia clenched her jaw, sighing before turning to Summer. “Go on back to the studio. Send all the project materials to my email, and I’ll call you after I go through them.”
“But are you sure…?” Summer cast a worried glance at Hunter, clearly not comfortable with leaving Mia alone with him.
“Relax. With his precious Jenna here, he’s not going to try anything with me,” Mia muttered, keeping her voice low.
“Alright, but be careful,” Summer whispered, giving Mia a concerned look before leaving. She had so much more she wanted to say to Mia, but it would have to wait.
Mia gave Summer a small wave and after she left, Mia finally made her way over to the car.
Sam had already opened the door and waited respectfully as she approached, gesturing with a polite bow. "Mrs. Jasper, please get in."
Mia offered him a faint smile. “Thank you.” She bent down to slide into the car, and Sam promptly closed the door behind her.
Inside, Mia took the seat by the window, casting a glance at Jenna, who sat in the middle.
Jenna’s fists clenched as she shot Mia a venomous look. “So the witch really got in,” Jenna fumed silently.
Catching Jenna's glare, Mia’s lips curved into a sly smile. “With Jenna sitting here, it’s hard for me to help with your injury.” She was, of course, referring to Hunter’s lip, the one she had bitten.
That small cut on Hunter’s lip would be healed soon enough, but the chance to irritate Jenna was too good to pass up.
“You—!” Jenna’s face twisted in fury, barely holding back the urge to claw at Mia. That shameless Mia was really good at putting on an act!
