Chapter 138
“No problem. I’ll start looking for a successor right away p>
Having gotten what he wanted, Felix was full of ambition.
With Owen joining the new company, a huge weight was inexplicably lifted from Mira’s shoulders.
Although she didn’t fully know the extent of his abilities, her intuition told her he was very capable.
That evening, when Mira returned home, Elara was waiting for her.
She had come to help clean Mira’s house and was also waiting for her to get back so they could grab some street tacos.
She still hadn’t found a chance to treat Mira to the meal she had promised.
“Alright, alright, let’s go eat now p>
Elara was nothing if not genuine.
For the first time, Mira found it amusingly stressful to have someone feel so indebted to her.
Not far from Emberline Fine Dining was a night market. People browsing the stalls often came here to eat when they got hungry.
Each stall had a few tables and stools set up under a simple canopy.
You could eat while watching the lively market scene and hearing the calls of the vendors.
It was cheap, unpretentious, and the food was delicious.
The two girls sat down at a stall selling savory crepes.
“What can I get for you two? We have pan-fried potstickers and savory crepes. We also have porridge, soy milk, and egg drop soup p>
“Elara, I’ll just have two savory crepes and a bowl of porridge p>
“We’ll take four savory crepes and two bowls of porridge,” Elara called out to the vendor.
“You got it! Be right with you p>
Before long, the vendor brought their food. The crepes were fried to a golden, crispy perfection, with two leaves of green lettuce tucked inside. They looked appetizing.
Without another word, they each picked one up and began to eat.
“Mira, no wonder you wanted to eat this. It’s delicious! I have to bring my dad here to try it next time p>
So Elara had never had a savory crepe before?
Mira had actually chosen this place to save Elara money. It was tasty and
inexpensive; a few dollars per person was more than enough.
If they had gone to a proper restaurant, a single dish would have cost more than ten dollars each.
“Mira, how come Mara hasn’t been coming to school these past few days?” Elara asked as they walked back to their apartment complex.
“Mara’s sick p>
“Mara got sick right after that little witch left p>
Mira glanced around and whispered, “Mara’s pregnant p>
Elara was trustworthy; there was no need to
mightde it from her. Telling her
serve as a cautionary
tale and help her avoid similar pitfalls in the future content
“What! How could she be pregnant p>
“It happened during that incident at the hotel before school started,” Mira said quietly.
That whole affair had become public knowledge.
“Oh my gosh. I’m definitely staying away from boys from now on p>
Just as Mira was feeling pleased that her message had gotten through Elara added, “Thank
goodness were does
to sit next to a boy, I’d be in trouble p>
“Elara, you don’t get pregnant from sitting next to a boy. It only happens through intimate contact p>
“Oh, oh, I get it. I won’t have any intimate contact with boys in the future p>
Mira wasn’t sure if she truly understood, but she decided to leave it at that. It wasn’t her place to get into the specifics.
Meanwhile, when Natalie found out the news that afternoon, she was furious.
Without consulting her family, she immediately arranged to meet with Mara.
When Mara heard Natalie wanted to see her, the embers of defiance in her heart roared back to life.
This was exactly what she had been waiting for.
She would flaunt her situation in front of Natalie, add some fuel to the fire, and maybe she could anger her enough to break things off with Wesley for good.
Mara was confident. After all, she had successfully used this tactic on Mira before. With just a little trick, that fool Mira had broken up with Wesley.
Natalie didn’t want to make a big scene. She simply invited Mara to a private room at a café and made sure the security camera was covered.
When Mara arrived, Natalie just tried to persuade her to terminate the pregnancy as soon as possible.
Mara, however, wasn’t having it.
“You want me to get rid of it just because you say so? You’re the other woman here. This child is the proot of our love. I’m definitely going to have this baby p>
