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 233: Candice

Mina looked over at the clock on her nightstand and figured it was time to experiment with hair styles. She had never been to or worked for a charity banquet but judging by the dress that CEO Rue had sent for her, Mina knew she had to at least try to look her best.

Mina was standing in front of the vanity when she heard an excited Luna come rushing into her room.

"Mina, look what I found!" Luna shouted. Mina dashed out from the closet, thinking that Luna may have found her missing gown, but she was instantly disappointed.

The dress that Luna was holding did favor the color of the one Mr. Rue had sent, but it was definitely not the same dress. There were no gemstones, and it had the look of something mass produced.

"You don't like it?" Luna said dejectedly. She knew the dress was nowhere near as beautiful as the one Mina had lost, but she thought that Mina would look amazing in gold, and she at least wanted to try and make up for her loss.

"I probably can't afford it," Mina said.
