Mia sat on the couch. Ivan bandaged her hand before instructing. “For the next few days, avoid letting your wound come into contact with water. You need to let the wound heal first.”

“Mia, tell me how you got injured,” Laura said.

Mia glanced at Maya. The latter’s eyes shifted evasively.

Sharon immediately cried out, “What do you mean by that, Mia? An accident? Don’t tell me you’re trying to frame Maya. She was just kind enough to try and help you. She got injured, too.”

“Shut up!” Laura snapped loudly. “Who allowed you to speak?”

Sharon clammed up at once, though her expression was unpleasant. Laura, her mother-in-law, had always

disliked her. Instead, Laura favored Mia, a woman from a poor background.

In the end, Mia calmly answered, “It was just an accident, Grandma. I got distracted while I was making some

soup.”

Her explanation made Timothy’s eyes grow thoughtful. Why wasn’t Mia making a fuss when Laura was here to

stand up for her?

“Oh, you silly goose. We’ve plenty of people who can cook for us. I told you not to cook anymore, but you

refused to listen to me,” Laura chided.

Mia lowered her eyes. She didn’t try to speak further on the subject. Even though she knew Laura had her

back, she suddenly decided not to let Laura worry about this matter.

Just then, Maya approached Laura and said, “How have you been feeling lately, Mrs. Barrett Senior? I brought

a lot of health supplements for you. They’re good for your body.”

Mia stood in silence beside Laura.

“Haven’t I told you not to come over anymore, Ms. Lane?” Laura asked in a polite but distant tone. “We’re having a family dinner tonight, so I won’t keep you for dinner.”

Maya could barely keep her expression neutral. She was the daughter of the Lane family. When had she ever

faced such disrespect?
