Chapter 682
It seemed that the relentless rain had finally subsided after several days.
This meant that Mia could soon depart from Xanier Island with Ginger.
After changing her outfit, Mia escorted Ginger downstairs to the restaurant for a meal.
While Mia was picking out food for Ginger, Ginger suddenly glanced to the side and remarked, "Mommy, the nice uncle... no, I mean, the bad guy is here."
Mia's expression momentarily froze. She turned her head and spotted Timothy and Caleb entering the restaurant together.
The restaurant appeared to be quite busy. Mia stole a glance at them before quickly looking away. "Ginger, concentrate on eating your meal, alright?"
With that, Mia turned around and reached for a plate, serving herself her favorite breakfast from the buffet.
However, she soon noticed Timothy approaching from the corner of her eye. Despite his presence, she remained focused on selecting her food and didn't acknowledge him.
As Timothy drew nearer, Mia quickly turned and walked away with her plate, her footsteps echoing from the click of her high heels.
Timothy stood in place, his gaze intensifying as he watched her retreating figure.
Meanwhile, Mia headed straight to the nearby food
counter, her mood visibly lifted.
However, Caleb soon approached her. "Ms. Monalize, now that the rain has stopped, the airport will likely resume operations soon. When do you plan to leave?"
Mia lifted her eyes and met Caleb's gaze. "I'll leave whenever I decide."
"Ms. Monalize, let's get straight to the point. What conditions do you need in exchange for the reishi mushroom?" Caleb asked bluntly.
So, it seemed that everything ultimately came down to the reishi mushroom.
Mia noticed Timothy approaching from a distance and glanced down, a smirk playing on her lips. "The conditions are rather straightforward.
"Just have Luna kneel at the hotel and publicly admit her mistake to me. Only then will I consider giving you the reishi mushroom."

Caleb was taken aback "But you already punished Lama yesterday. Jan't that enough?"
Mia's gaze turned cold as she poured her beverage toward Caleb, With a disingenuous tone, she remarked, "Oh, my apologies, that was entirely intentional, Consider it a stroke of luck
on your part."
Caleb was puzzled. Suppressing his frustration, he inquired, "Ms. Monalize, what do you mean by this?"
"Quite literally, I wanted you to understand how it feels to be splashed with water for no
reason
"Indeed, it's an unpleasant sensation," Caleb conceded to himself.
Following her demonstration, Mia couldn't help but notice Timothy standing behind Caleb. Without a word, she turned and lett, feeling the weight of his gaze lingering on her back.
Meanwhile, Caleb turned to Timothy, expressing his concern, "You heard her conditions, Obtaining the reishi mushroom won't be easy!
"I have my own plans for this matter," Timothy responded cryptically.
His gaze drifted toward Mia and Ginger seated together. For some reason, he couldn't tear his eyes away from them.
