Chapter 272

She shoved the manila envelope back toward Aunt May. “These are just copies. I have all the original evidence. If you don’t do exactly what I said, I will hand these over to the court as evidence for a lawsuit.”

The last shred of tolerance and goodwill Mia had for Aunt May vanished in that moment. She turned and walked

away.

Aunt May chased after her. “Wait, Mia! Fine, I won’t ask for the $200,000 anymore, okay? Let’s just leave the previous money for the kids…”

Mia stepped into the elevator, and the doors slid shut.

Aunt May didn’t dare follow her inside. Her voice was cut off by the closing doors, her shameless face disappearing from view.

Mia shook her head. I’m not sure yet, but it definitely won’t be in Northbrook.”

The elevator doors opened, and the crowd dispersed. Mia and Ian walked out of the hospital together toward the

exit. Once they were outside, the suffocating feeling of the hospital began to lift.

However, Mia was still in a terrible mood. She pulled out her phone to call a ride.

Mia, I can accept a long-distance relationship.”
