When a Genius Makes a Mistake

****Completed, but under revision.**** ***SUPER SLOW BURN MATURE 18+*** After struggling her way through university, Mina Harlow, a top tier graduate (and literal genius), with the aspiration of lifting her family out of poverty, was still living in the slums, taking odd jobs to earn a living. All of her hard work had been for nothing and her life is cast into turmoil because she offended the wrong Miss from a prominent family. Desperate to for her next source of income, Mina aligns herself with the wrong people, and finds herself amid several conspiracies that keep becoming more and more confounded by misunderstandings. She is mistaken for a spy, by one of the most influential families in the country and held captive as the confusion, mishaps and misunderstandings build up all around her. Under the extreme circumstance, Mina is thrown into despair, hatred and love all that the same time, but will the experience break her or make her ‘better?’ (This story is set in a fictional, modern day patriarchal society on the brink of a shift public opinion on the 'role' of the woman.) Excerpt: "Why are you crying?" "Because I'm stupid," Mina replied. The man laughed sarcastically. "I disagree. I think you are a very smart girl." "Being smart does not mean you can not be stupid." Who told her she was a genius anyway? ***THIS IS AN ADULT STORY WITH AN ADULT THEME. THERE IS VIOLENCE AND IMPLIED VIOLENCE. THERE IS ROMANCE IN THIS STORY, BUT IT IS NOT EXACTLY A LOVE STORY. ***

Chapter 213: No tricks?

When Lisa heard that Robert was the one who visited Mina, she called Cylus immediately. Her heart sank when he told her he was about to meet with President Lee. Her mind kept going back to the many times she and Cylus had given into desire. If he told Ian about it now, all her hard work would have been wasted.

Lisa had thought they parted on a positive note, but like her relationship with Ian, everything had changed between them because of Mina. She hated Mina, but she had to be careful with how she approached. She still had to prove to her brother that Ian would never choose Mina over her, otherwise she would be made a fool out of.

Lisa arrived at Ian's office in time to watch Cylus leave. She had no idea what the men discussed, but from the look on Ian's face; it wasn't good. Cylus said something to her, but she was too busy trying to read Ian's expression to hear it. Throwing caution to the wind, she blurted out a lie that could account for her rushed arrival.
