Noting Philip's demeanor, Sharon cast a smug look at Mia. So what if the Lane family was a prominent family in Nord City? The Barretts weren't going to be intimidated by them.

Mia scrutinized Philip and frowned. "Where's Mike, your former manager?"

She clearly remembered Mike was the manager, not this unfamiliar man whom she couldn't recognize.

Philip replied calmly, "Mr. Labeouf took a few days off to tend to his personal matters back home. So, I'll be acting as the interim manager in his absence. Please come to me if you have any issues."

Mia glanced at Shelly and began, "Ms. Barrett never made an advance reservation at Aide Castle Hotel before. And according to my knowledge, all bookings for this year are full."

Staring at Shelly, Philip asked tentatively, "Ms. Barrett, you haven't reserved a birthday-themed banquet at our hotel?"

Shelly grew visibly awkward and said in a clipped tone, "No, because I haven't decided where to host my birthday party before. I came across your

    Mia was furious. The strict reservation policy at Aide Castle Hotel left no room for exceptions, not even for her family.She couldn't believe Philip dared to make such a decision. Any leak of this breach could severely tarnish the hotel's reputation.He said nervously, "Ms. Lane, perhaps we should handle this discreetly. If you need any special arrangements, I can also help with that.""Do you think I need your help? Who authorized you to change the guest reservations?"Philip said nothing.Then, Shelly chimed in, "As the manager, he has the authority to change the reservation list to accommodate my birthday banquet. I understand you're upset about us potentially jumping the queue, but you shouldn't take it out on him.""Shelly, shut up. This is between me and him. His actions had violated the Aide Castle Hotel's employee guidelines," Mia retorted sharply.She hadn't expected the acting manager to be so unethical. She had explicitly stated that reservations should not be change

    Philip quickly turned to Shelly and said, "Ms. Barrett, I'm just a staff trying to make a living here. Could you please talk to Ms. Lane and ask her not to report me?"Feeling pressured to please the affluent, he couldn't understand why they targeted him.Sharon said, "Mia, it's important to be forgiving and understanding. Just because you've become a wealthy heiress doesn't mean you can do whatever you want."And jobs aren't easy to find. If you want him to arrange a banquet, just ask him directly. There's no need to terminate and report him."Shelly added, "Are you jealous that we can skip the line for our reservation? Is that why you're reporting him? If you have a problem, why not come straight to me?"Mia smirked. "Why would I bother taking my frustrations out on you? Everyone knows that Aide Castle Hotel has a strict reservation policy. "Changing the reservation list for anyone is out of the question. The manager is breaking the rules and being unfair to everyone else."J

    Shelly countered, "Why do you assume I couldn't get on the reservation list? Your family doesn't own Nord City."At that moment, Sharon added, "Shelly, let's save the birthday talk after securing the collaboration. There's still plenty of time before your birthday."Shelly was fuming with indignation. Philip had promised to secure her reservation, but Mia's interference and threats had made him back out. Shelly suspected Mia was just jealous.She glared at Mia and said, "Are you happy now? But don't celebrate too soon. Once Aide Castle Hotel collaborates with us, I'll still get my birthday banquet. Let's see you try to stop me then."Mia shot back, "Let me save you the trouble. None of that will ever happen, and there's no chance you'll have your birthday banquet here.""Wow, Mia, you're really full of yourself. Do you think you own the hotel? You've been acting high and mighty, bossing the manager around and firing him like you're in charge.""Why? Do you think I'm not the hotel

    Mia said, "I've kept it a secret for personal reasons."Shelly rolled her eyes at Jasmine. "Of course, you're taking Mia's side since you're in league with her. I don't believe that a carefree socialite like her owns Aide Castle Hotel.""Just because you can't do something doesn't mean others can't," Jasmine countered.Sharon looked at Mia skeptically. "You say you're the hotel's owner. How do you prove it? Are you going to call the former manager, Mike? But how do we know the person you call is him?"Mia nodded. "You're right. But I don't see any reason to prove my identity to you. It's simply a waste of time, especially since I have a busy evening ahead."With that, Mia turned and left. She wanted to call someone to deal with Philip.There couldn't be any slip-ups at the investment banquet. Besides, she had no time to spare with Sharon and Shelly.Jasmine chimed in, "Mia, you're right. Let's not waste our time on people who don't matter."Shelly, feeling offended, stepped for

    Mia felt there was a motive behind Sharon's action. "There must be some perks involved," Jasmine said. "Those nouveau riche are quite generous, and Mrs. Barrett is desperate for money. I heard it took a lot to bail out Ralph."Sharon wasn't just short on cash. The Bowen family was also demanding hefty compensation from her, and she was already caught up in legal issues. Plus, she couldn't stay long in Nord City.Mia had thought Sharon was in a tough spot, but now she had managed to bail Ralph out. How did Sharon get the Bowens to agree?"Yeah, I was curious too," Jasmine stated. "I thought the Barrett family might have given it to her, but I had someone confirm, and that wasn't the case.""Then, where did she get all this money from?" Mia asked.Mia knew Sharon wanted to bail Ralph, but it seemed unlikely she would be willing to give up her entire fortune for him. Sharon cared too much about her image, and without money, how could she keep up her status in Bern City?Plus, liqu

    Mia suddenly remembered Timothy's background and found herself at a loss for words.She had always found it strange how Sharon's behavior caused so many embarrassing situations without anyone daring to criticize her. It dawned on Mia that this was due to the Barrett family's elite status in Bern City. Despite Sharon's lack of competence befitting her status, the Barretts seemed unusually accepting of her. However, Mia had recently uncovered the reason, which was tied to Timothy's background.Sharon and Timothy seemed to carry a sense of obligation from their past, which explained the Barretts' tolerance toward Sharon.Mia frowned as she thought about the conflict between the research institute and Yellow Island, which made her wary of anyone associated with Yellow Island. Now, Sharon's sudden bond with the granddaughter of Yellow Island's prime minister seemed suspicious to her.She suspected that Sharon's calling for Shelly to Nord City and her matchmaking efforts might be rel

    "But my grandparents were honorable people. They wouldn't tolerate such wrongdoing or let me suffer like this," Jasmine said.Mia smiled. "If your grandparents care for you that much, then you should find ways to protect them. "Sometimes, you can't play fair when dealing with people who use dirty tactics. Fighting fire with fire can be effective. It's like giving them a taste of their own medicine.""You're right." Jasmine sighed.Dressed in a designer gown, Luna walked beside Raymond as she relished the attention of the crowd. The gazes of admiration she received made her feel like a celebrity, and she couldn't resist putting on a smug smile.This was her first public appearance with him, and she knew everyone was speculating about her identity. She knew soon that she would be able to reveal her actual identity.As his daughter and a wealthy heiress, she aimed to make those who had once looked down on her regret their judgment.Seeing Mia and Jasmine nearby, Luna's eyes gleame

    Raymond was momentarily taken aback. "Well, I've been quite busy lately, so this slipped my mind."Jasmine looked at her father. "Dad, you know mom's health is declining. So, I thought we could throw her a party to lift her spirits. We can invite Grandma and Grandpa too and have a joyful family gathering."Raymond nodded. "You're right. Let me check if we can still make the arrangements."Luna saw her chance and piped up, "Dad, why don't you help Jasmine out and ask Aide Castle Hotel? They'd probably accommodate us for another event."Jasmine's expression darkened. She couldn't believe Luna would say something like that.Just then, someone approached Raymond to greet him, and he walked over to the group.Jasmine and Luna remained standing at where they were, and the atmosphere grew tense.Luna adjusted her designer bag with a smile. "Jasmine, I understand your mom's birthday is a big deal. But I did talk to Dad first, you know. There's an order to these things, right?"She beli

    None of the major shareholders was a fool.After that, Mia was busy handling Barrett Group affairs and barely had time to rest.With an exhausted look, she returned to the hospital.Mia looked at Timothy and said, "I'll run away if you don't wake up soon.""No… Please don't go…" Timothy grabbed her hand. His gaze was deep.Mia's eyes reddened as she gazed at the man who had just regained consciousness. Timothy finally came out of his coma.After that, everything was back to normal. Those who caused trouble quieted down.Sharon visited Timothy and told him that she was going to settle down overseas and would not come back anymore.Timothy bought her a property and gave her a huge sum of money before sending her away from Bern City.As for Maya, it was discovered that she was not the granddaughter of the Prime Minister of Yellow Island but merely his caregiver. Yet, she had been deceiving people outside.After Maya was exposed, she ran away dejectedly. Nobody knew where she was

    Sage stood beside Timothy in silence.Soon, news that Timothy was hospitalized spread, and Barrett Group's stock plunged.The relatives of the Barrett family requested to hold a board meeting to elect another CEO.On the day of the board meeting, Mia brought her two children to Barrett Group.They managed to keep everyone on a leash as Sage bore a striking resemblance to Timothy.Mia marched into the meeting room, sat in Timothy's chair, and glanced at everyone present. "Let's begin. Didn't you all want to have a meeting?"One of the middle-aged men said, "Ms. Lane, this is the Barrett Group board meeting. It's not appropriate for you to be here.""That's right. Though the kids are Mr. Barrett's children, they're still young and do not have any shares. You all shouldn't be here."Mia flung a document onto the table. "This is an agreement signed by Grandma Laura to authorize me to manage Timothy's shares.""Anyway, we still need to elect a CEO to handle our company affairs.""

    "Because to me, you're my family too," Timothy said.When Sharon heard the word 'family', her eyes turned red. Then, she turned around and left the ward.Mia walked out and asked Peyton to send Sharon to the hospital for a checkup.Looking at Sharon's back, Mia said, "I hope you don't let him down since he regards you as his family. He's the only one you can depend on now."Sharon did not turn her head around. Mia did not know if Sharon would listen to her advice.Mia immediately called her brother. "Dominic, I met Maya."She then told him everything about Maya.Dominic frowned. "I never thought she would go to Yellow Island.""Do you think she's really the granddaughter of the Prime Minister of Yellow Island?""Don't you know how good she is at lying?" Dominic said.Mia nodded. "Yeah, you're right. But I still don't know whether she's related to Yellow Island.""Don't worry, I'll find out."When Mia returned to the ward after ending the call, she saw a doctor bustling arou

    Mia went straight to the hospital to ask Timothy about the matter.But when she arrived, someone had reached there earlier than her."Timothy, what do you mean? All I did was pull a few strings, but you want to humiliate me publicly. How am I going to maintain my standing in the company?" Sharon said.Mia went in with a frown. "This is funny. It's not just about pulling a few strings, but it's aimed at me. Mrs. Barrett, your actions have leaked confidential commercial information.""Stop trying to scare me. It's my son who opened doors for you. It's the Yellow Islanders who wanted to collaborate with us, and they are much better than you," Sharon retorted. Mia said with a half-hearted smile, "At first, I didn't want to pursue this matter. But since you put it this way, wait for my lawyer's letter then.""Such big talk, huh?" A mysterious-looking woman wearing a hat and a mask walked in from outside.Mia felt that the woman looked somewhat familiar. "Are you the rumored granddau

    Mia glanced at the person on the screen. Without answering the woman, she turned off the laptop.After all, there was no need for Mia to explain anything.After Mia turned off the laptop assertively, she turned around and looked at Timothy. He did not say a word but started eating.Soon, Heath received a call. He left the ward and said to the woman on the other side of the phone, "She's Mr. Barrett's ex-wife. You'd better not mess with her."While Timothy was eating, Mia finished reading the proposal in her hand.She had to admit that the document was very valuable.Mia was about to leave the ward when Timothy almost finished eating, but his voice sounded behind her. "What did you say when you met her at the cafe earlier?""Did you follow me?""I followed her, to be exact. After all, the Hopkins are not good people."Mia totally agreed with that.She paused briefly before she said, "Grandma Laura asked me to talk to her because she doesn't agree with you about giving her all

    "You don't know anything," Sharon said.Mia retorted, "I might not know everything, but Timothy is innocent. Before he knew the truth, he always regarded you as his mother. Even after he found out the truth, he has never mistreated you."Besides, when you said you wanted the Barrett family's wealth, he agreed. Tell me, who else could do what he did?"Mia felt that Timothy might have been hurt by Sharon's words.He seemed impressive on the outside, but his identity was a dark secret.Therefore, his relationship with Sharon became awkward.Sharon's eyes reddened. "But I also treat him like my biological son.""You're also his foster mother. Now everyone related to him is dead, and you're the only one he has. What are you afraid of?"Sharon wiped off her tears. "I'm not afraid of anything. It's just that I felt that I can't trust anyone.""Timothy is a man of his word. However, Grandma Laura said that if you remain stubborn, making the will public is her only option," Mia said.

    Mia noticed Sharon's expression changing slightly when she mentioned Laura.Sharon took her cup of coffee and said, "What? Does Mrs. Barrett Senior still want to lecture me even when she's on her deathbed? She must have known Timothy's identity all along, but she conspired with her son to keep the truth from me. "She and the Barretts are birds of a feather. What else does she have to say?"Mia was not surprised by her words. She had expected that Sharon would certainly think this way.Fortunately, she managed to stop Laura when she said she wanted to meet Sharon.Sharon was emotionally unstable now. What if Laura said something unpleasant and Sharon retorted? Her words might upset Laura.Mia took a kraft envelope out of her handbag and placed it in front of Sharon. "I hope you won't regret saying those words after reading this.""What's this?""This is the will that your husband left behind, as well as the divorce agreement."Hearing that, Sharon quickly took the document out

    Mia hesitated to risk exposing Laura to Sharon's potential agitation.Due to Sharon's emotional vulnerability, she often spoke impulsively. With Laura's delicate health in mind, any disruption was simply out of the question.As Laura recounted past events, Mia remained silent, absorbing her words.Upon hearing Laura's story, Mia was taken aback. She hadn't expected there to be hidden aspects to Timothy's family history.Taking a moment, she asked, "Does Timothy have any knowledge of this?""He doesn't. Some things are best kept from him," Laura replied calmly.Mia harbored some lingering questions in her mind. Unable to suppress them any longer, she asked, "Considering your knowledge of Timothy's background, what is your opinion of him?""Tim is a commendable young man, and he has never let our family down. He has achieved remarkably well for himself. To be honest, I feel indebted to him as well."At first, I only kept him around for the sake of preserving the Barrett family li

    Despite her initial reluctance, Mia eventually found herself making her way to Timothy's ward.As she entered, she couldn't help but notice Timothy's expressionless demeanor as he lay there.Carrying a tray of food, Mia approached him. "The doctor pointed out your extreme fatigue. It's crucial that you increase your food intake and prioritize proper rest to reduce the risk of sudden complications."Upon hearing Mia's voice, Timothy lifted his gaze to find her seated beside him. His lips moved slightly as he asked, "What did you tell Luna?""Not much," Mia responded. "Just a sprinkle of salt on the wound and a dash of psychological pressure to make sure Luna doesn't have it easy in prison."Placing the tray of food in front of him, Mia urged, "Please, just a few bites.""I'll eat later. By the way, the kids have been here at the hospital for quite a while. You should take them home," Timothy suggested.Frowning, Mia insisted, "You should eat something first."As her words faded,
