The Heiress Revived from the Ashes Chapter 183 Misread and Misled Josh got up swiftly , striding towards the door , intent on chasing after Mia .
Finished But just as he was about to step out , the young man blocked his path with an outstretched arm .
Shes faking it .
Women like her arent worth your sympathy .
Behind his gold rimmed glasses , Joshs gaze turned cold .
He was not a man known for his patience .
Since when do I need your opinion on my affairs ? The couple was visibly shaken by his imposing presence .
Their faces alternated between shades of pale and crimson , yet neither dared to utter another word .
Without sparing them another glance , Josh strode out of the café .
Mia had already crossed the street , heading towards the university gates .
Panicked , Josh raised his voice .
Mia ! He remembered the couple calling her that .
Hearing her name , Mia froze mid step , her back still turned towards him .
At that moment , all traces of vulnerability vanished from her face , replaced by simmering rage .
Her eyes burned with fury , as if she wished to obliterate those who had ruined her carefully orchestrated act .
However , in the brief second it took for her to turn around , she swiftly adjusted her expression .
But before she could speak , the scene before her left her utterly dumbfounded .
A flamboyantly dressed man had latched onto Josh like a koala , burying his face into the latters chest while sobbing pitifully .
His cries echoed through the streets .
Josh was instinctively tense at the unexpected embrace ; his first reaction was almost to throw the man over his shoulder in self defense .
You jerks ! Why did no one come looking for me ? Do you have any idea how terrifying it was to be locked in a hotel bathroom for an entire day and night ? You bastards , I hate you all ! The man sobbed as he pounded weakly against Joshs chest , looking very much like a grieving wife complaining to her husband .
Glancing down , Josh recognized him immediately .
It was Andy .
If he had not seen Andy now , he might have completely forgotten about him .
But the sight before him was nothing short of tragic .
Andys once meticulously styled hair was now a tangled mess , resembling a birds nest .
His face bore several deep scratches , dried blood crusting at the edges .
His designer clothes were in tatters , barely holding together .
For as long as he had known Andy , the man had always been the picture of vanity .
He was a fashion forward stylist who valued cleanliness and appearance above all else .
He would rather die than be seen looking anything less than perfect .
But right now , Andy reeked .
The stench of a poorly ventilated bathroom clung to him , so pungent that Josh nearly gagged .
Yet , seeing Andys disheveled state , he suppressed his reaction , patting the mans back in consolation .
What happened to you ? Andreahhed harder How dare you ask me that ! Its all your fault ! Vou mine ahandoned mal I hate vroul 1/2 15:31 Sun , 30 Mar Chapter 183 Misread and Misled Tears and snot smeared across his face , painting a pitiful picture .
#Finished Meanwhile , across the street , Mia watched the two men .
One was sobbing hysterically , the other was soothing him with a gentle pat on the back .
A scene so absurdly intimate that it felt like a bolt of lightning had struck her .
So he was gay ?! No wonder his abs were rock hard .
He must have trained them with that delicate- looking man in bed ! Instantly , all desire Mia had for Josh vanished into thin air .
It all made sense now .
He was not compensating her out of guilt for taking advantage of her.
He was compensating her because he was repulsed by the mere thought of a woman touching him .
What a colossal waste of my time .
Cursing under her breath , Mia spun on her heel and stomped into the campus , never wanting to spare Josh another glance .
The following week passed uneventfully , life returning to its usual rhythm .
But Mia had not been idle .
On a moonless night , in the dimly lit woods behind the campus , an eerie silence pervaded the air .
Mia hid in the shadows , dressed in full disguise .
Her sharp eyes gleamed ominously .
She had been waiting for a suitable moment .
When the couple from the café strolled into the secluded woods , laughing flirtatiously , clearly intending on some intimate rendezvous , her lips curled into a wicked smirk .
Silently , she moved in .
Then , with a single swift kick , she struck the young man square in the groin .
A bloodcurdling scream tore through the night as he crumpled to the ground , clutching his injury and writhing in agony .
His precious jewels ? Destroyed .
The girl , terrified beyond words , opened her mouth to scream .
But before she could make a sound , Mia lunged forward , raising the brick in her hand and bringing it crashing down onto the girls face , again and again , with merciless precision .
