Chapter 60
Mia’s so–called compromise was just her seeking an exit strategy
She shot Maja a glaring look “If that’s the case, forget it I’m done trying to defend myself from her nasty
words
No sooner had she finished speaking, than Maja burst into laughter, which Irritated Mia immediately.
She clenched her fists, thinking. “What the hell is she laughing at?”
Maja stood up, facing her “What are you even saying? You were the one who started trashing me in
front of everyone. Now that the truth is out, you don’t even apologize, and you somehow make it seem
like you’re being magnanimous and letting it slide Just because you’re Mia. doesn’t mean you get all
the brownie points, right?”
Mia was so pissed that she was speechless She felt her breath growing hot She looked to Dalia,
hoping she would say something She couldn’t stand all eyes on her.
But Dalia kept her head down, whispering only loud enough for Mia to hear
“This woman was the other woman, back when she was studying at Solstice College. She seduced an
investor and his wife caught them, throwing paint all over her. Mia, you don’t owe this homewrecker an
apology”
Dalia, after all, was 35 years old and not as easily provoked as Mia.
She kept her head down, trying her best to fade into the background, hoping to get out of the situation
unscathed.
But Mia not being the sharpest tool in the shed, lit up at the news.
“Oh, so you’re a Solstice College alum too, and you even played the homewrecker during your college
years! You got some nerve, how could you even show your face here?”
Maja furrowed her brows, looking at Dalla.
Dalia, on the other hand, was smirking quietly. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
As long as she hid behind Mia, no one would know it was her who dropped the bomb.
“Oh” And who told you I was the other woman?”
“Of course, the director. She used to teach here, just got promoted this year. I guess she must have
taught you before, that’s why she recognized your face. I thought you were someone Important. Never
thought you did such a dirty thing during college.”
With that, Mia turned to the principal.
“Sit you see, a homewrecker, who would believe her words? I bet she stole that bracelet, maybe she
even sneaked Into the staff room to take it.”
“She can’t be allowed to tarnish the reputation of Solstice College. We should find out what class she
graduated from and revoke her diploma. Don’t let her keep scamming people with the name of Solstice
College,” Mia was seething, but felt a sense of relief.
The Principal was left in a bind, wiping the sweat off his forehead. He hadn’t expected this to dig up the
past.
lan was still there, so he needed to handle this issue carefully to avold tarnishing the reputation of
Solstice College. Everyone thought Maja would be flustered, but she looked calmly at Dalla.
“Is that so? Is that what you told Mia?”
Dalia’s lips turned pale, cursing Mia for being an Idiot and dragging her into this.

She had originally planned to stay low, but now she was pushed Into the spotlight.

A small smirk played on her lips, thinking she was the director. She didn’t need to be afraid of a woman
with no backing.
If Maja dared to expose her video, she would expose her and Daniel’s video, letting everyone share the
risk.
With this thought, Dalia’s lips curled up slightly, her confidence returning.
“I was wrong to disclose a student’s privacy.”
Although she seemed to be apologizing, she was actually reinforcing the notion of Maja as the other
woman.
The crowd’s gaze towards Maja instantly changed. In this circle, apart from plagiarism, being the other
woman was also frowned upon,
Moreover, painters and writers were Infamous for their high Infidelity rates. These people always used
the excuse of pursuing the freedom of the soul to overlook moral ethics.
Many of the women attending the exhibition had experienced their familles being Intervened by a third
party, so they now looked at Maja with ridicule and disdain.
Even Connie looked at Maja in surprise, unable to belleve Maja was the other woman.
