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 205: Drama

Mina grabbed her measly $23 worth of supplies and slammed shut the door of President Lee's car. His actions had to be planned. There was no way that he could have thought she would have allowed him to pay for the jewelry she was wearing when she had not even permitted him to buy her food.

In hindsight, Mina believed that President Lee was probably trying to make sure that she could not save any money of her own. It probably worried him that she would gain too much independence if she had access to her own finances. It was the only thing Mina could think of.

On top of that, President Lee did not just make her pay for the earrings, but she also had to pay for the gift he had promised the manager's daughter as well. Mina liked children, but not 'spend $500 on a necklace' liked them.
