The Billionaire Ex-Wife and the Beggar He Became novel Chapter 50

Mia fell silent, her lips pressed into a thin line—she was the type who couldn't hold in her words for long, and it was killing her not to jump in.

As they walked down the corridor, Winona suddenly stopped, turning back to fix Mia with a stern look. "Mia, promise me—"

"I won't cause any more trouble!" Mia blurted, hands held up in surrender before Winona could finish.
