Meet My Brothers Chapter 49
Mia had to admit that she'd done it on purpose. She held her trophy tightly when she noticed that Timothy's back was to her. It seemed he hadn't turned to look at her, nor was he bothered by her earlier actions.Mia retracted her gaze and caught Maya approaching them. She didn't seem to be looking at Mia, though. Her gaze was fixed on Liam. Did they know each other?Maya greeted Liam with a smile. "I didn't expect to run into you here."Liam sounded cool and distant. "The world can be a small place."Maya wanted to say something else, but Liam didn't give her the chance to. "Let's go, Mia."Mia didn't think there was any need for her to remain there. It would be good to head home earlier. She wasn't too used to wearing heels and almost twisted her ankle as she walked. Liam held her up by the arm. "Slow down.""Okay." She linked arms with him; it made her feel more secure. She didn't want to embarrass herself by slipping and falling.When they got to the entrance, the paparazzi s

Maya's expression changed. "Dominic, I can explain this. I had nothing to do with this; someone else messed up somewhere.""But you're the one running the show. It's your responsibility to bear."When Dominic had learned about Mia going missing for a short while because she was so upset over being eliminated, he'd been so panicked that he'd almost rushed over to the ceremony to stand up for her. Fortunately, Eva had stopped him.It was also fortunate that the truth had been revealed and that Mia had turned out to be Zoe. There was no doubt she'd won first place based on her skill.Dominic didn't want Mia to suffer any grievances, especially since this was such an important competition.Maya wanted to continue explaining herself, but the call had already been disconnected. She knew how decisive and ruthless Dominic was, so she didn't dare to call him to continue arguing with him.On the outside, it seemed like she lived a glamorous life with the Lane family, but the truth was far

Mia felt a headache coming on when she saw the trending topic. She really didn't want to be known for this. But after checking out the trend, she realized there was only a photo of her and Liam walking into the venue. There weren't any photos of her face.She relaxed a little. It was fine as long as there weren't any photos of her. Still, what was up with the content? Why were people talking about how she and Liam had gotten together three years ago and were only just revealing their relationship?She supposed it was only to be expected of entertainment news. Her and Liam's names were the only real things in this whole mess—everything else had been made up.Mia explained everything to Gina. She told Gina how Liam was only a body double for Linden and that the paparazzi had gotten the wrong man.Then, she went out to buy a whole bunch of stuff. They were all gifts that she'd prepared for Dominic and Eva; they could bring the things back to Nord City.Mia looked at Liam. "Will the r

Mia seemed to have become a completely different person after signing those divorce papers. Timothy was finding her harder to read as time passed.At this moment, his phone pinged. He saw a push notification for a trending topic—it was about Linden's new relationship.His brows furrowed tightly. He clicked on it to see a photo of Mia's and another man's backs. She wore her champagne-colored dress, which swished with every step she took.Timothy's fingers twitched as he recalled how it felt when her dress had brushed against the back of his hand. His Adam's apple bobbed. He sipped his water before summoning Heath. "Have someone take this trending topic down.""Yes, sir. Should I also look into which studio Mrs. Barrett has gone to?"Timothy gave him a cold look. "Don't you have anything better to do? Get out!"…Mia took a cab to Felix's studio. It was located in a creative industry center that had been refurbished from an old steel plant. It exuded creative vibes.Mia walked in
Meet My Brothers Chapter 53
Shelly was still full of pent-up frustration. She hadn't had anywhere to vent it. To make matters worse, Laura had been singing Mia's praises. It had irritated her to no end.Wilhelmina said pointedly, "I saw her at a small studio there. It looked like she was there for an interview."Shelly sat up in bed, all traces of drowsiness gone. "I need more details. Give me the address, too."Wilhelmina gave her a quick rundown. After that, she turned to see Mia follow Felix out of his office. Felix announced, "We have a new member joining us today, everyone. Please give Mia a warm welcome!"Wilhelmina smirked. Mia had stolen her trophy and was even thinking of stealing the man she liked. How could she let Mia off the hook?…Mia officially started work the following day. She wanted to earn some money before she started her classes.The receptionist approached her. "Mia, there's a client asking for you.""Me?" Mia found this odd. It was her first day of work. Why would a client be look

Mia was fine with people insulting her, but she wouldn't allow anyone to say anything against James and Patricia.Shelly shrieked, "Have you lost your mind, Mia? I'm sure as hell gonna lodge a complaint against you!"At this moment, Felix came over after hearing the commotion. Shelly immediately screeched, "Are you the boss? I want to lodge a complaint against this bitch!"Mia put the glass down and looked at Felix. "I'm sorry about this, Felix. I don't think I'm a good fit for your studio."She couldn't get Felix and his studio in trouble."Hold it. You're not the one who should go." Felix looked at Shelly and Sharon coldly. "I'm gonna have to ask you two to leave. This isn't the place for you wealthy people. We work hard for every penny that we earn, and we do it with our consciences clear. We don't need your money."Mia didn't expect Felix to stand up for her. Shelly and Sharon were so pissed that they screeched for a while longer before storming off.Wilhelmina furrowed her
Meet My Brothers Chapter 55
A hint of mockery flashed in Mia's eyes as she looked at the order. She'd furnished every inch of the marital home with her heart, and a certain someone had disregarded it like it meant nothing. Now, they even wanted her to design a new home for her ex-husband and his first love!They'd crossed the line with this!It looked like they wouldn't let her off the hook; they were constantly trying to provoke her. Since backing down wouldn't resolve the problem, Mia would probably be better off facing them directly. As long as they weren't afraid of the consequences, what would she have to fear?Mia's eyes flashed coldly. She called the number indicated in the order. Heath's voice rang out awkwardly on the other end of the line. "Ahem. Mrs. Barrett.""You don't have to call me that now that we've signed the divorce papers. I'll cut to the chase—you guys are the ones behind that online order, right?"Heath nodded. "Yes.""I'll accept it, but I have a condition. I want to be paid tenfol
Meet My Brothers Chapter 56
Mia kept a mental record of all the changes that had been made to the living room so that she had an idea of what to change. She would work on the draft at home.At this moment, someone rang the doorbell. Holly answered the door to see two women standing outside. "May I know who you're looking for?""Out of the way, you. I want to see the lady of the household.""Yeah, get out of our way. I'm your boss' mother-in-law!"Holly was shoved aside. She didn't have the chance to stop them from barging into the house. "What are you two doing? You can't come in!"Mia heard all of this from her seat on the couch. Her expression shifted as she turned to look at the women who'd barged into the villa. "What are you two doing here?"Her adoptive grandmother, Mildred Hort, felt the leather couch. "I didn't expect you to marry someone so well-off, Mia. If not for Jimmy's slip of the tongue, I wouldn't have any idea that your husband lived in such a huge villa!"Mary chimed in, "Didn't you tell

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
Meet My Brothers Chapter 1182
"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.
Meet My Brothers Chapter 1181
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
Meet My Brothers Chapter 1180
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,
