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 206: Villain

Lisa stood in the corridor leading toward the staff kitchen and listened to Mina mocking her. She would not have believed it if she had not heard it with her own ears, but Mina was doing an impersonation of her, and it was obvious. She was even walking around with her chest and nose held high in the air. That was the way Lisa had been taught to behave by her mother.

Lisa entered into view and beelined toward Mina, who was shocked stiff by the unexpected sight. She did not give the girl time to react as she lifted her hand and smacked Mina across the face.

Mina held onto her cheek as she looked into the narrowed eyes of Lisa. She knew she deserved that slap from a long time ago, and she could not bring herself to do anything in her own defense. Lisa was not satisfied with one slap and she struck Mina again, this time breaking the girl's lip.
