Mia glanced at the bodyguards, not expecting this to happen. Timothy was supposed to pick her up, but an urgent work matter had arisen for him. They would be late if he were to pick her up afterward, given that Aide Castle was located in the suburbs. As such, Mia decided to head to the private resort on her own. She smiled. "I don't have an invitation card.""Miss, this is a private event. You can't enter without an invitation card," explained the bodyguard politely.The incoming guests witnessed the scene.Intentionally, Mia inquired, "Is the privacy policy this stringent at Aide Castle? Can't there be some flexibility?""Apologies, miss. Our private resort places a high value on guest privacy. If you've forgotten your invitation card, you may wait in the waiting room," the bodyguard replied, earning a satisfied smile from Mia. The staff appeared to be well-trained professionals.Some guests praised the bodyguard's handling of the situation.Luna, watching the spectacle unfo

The money spent on Shelly was a worthy investment. Mia and Shelly joined the party. Most of the guests were there, hence the lively atmosphere. Shelly took out her phone to take pictures. "Monalize, this private resort is a new place. Only reservations are accepted. It's never opened to the public. "I've heard that everything here, from the designs to the decorations, is branded. Especially those plants in the parlor—they are rare and imported from abroad, some even endangered species." Mia remained composed, though she played along with an astonished expression. "Really? The parlor is beautifully and exquisitely decorated, and the outdoor design is stunning, too.""Some might find this a novelty," Shelly remarked.Sharon and Veronica approached them, with Sharon exuding elegance and high spirits. However, Mia's striking red attire seemed to irk Sharon—it made Mia stand out, almost as if she were the woman of the hour. Veronica sized Mia up and blurted, "Ms. Monalize, today

Mia turned her attention to Sharon as she headed toward the entrance to greet the guest, her fondness for Nikki evident to all."Monalize, Ms. Chapman has been pursuing Tim for years, but he's not interested in her. There's no way they'll get together."Mia cocked a brow. "But Mrs. Barrett invited Ms. Chapman here intentionally to remind me of my place and to back off."It was easy to see through such a trick."When Tim arrives, he'll surely take your side, and Ms. Chapman will have no choice but to watch from the sidelines like a jealous outsider. Oh, right. Where is he? Why didn't he come with you?""We planned to arrive together, but he had an urgent matter arise at work, so I came ahead."Mia didn't mind that at all. After all, her priority was to be at her newly opened private resort.Sharon warmly welcomed the Chapmans, recognizing their importance to the day's festivities.Nikki arrived gracefully in a white dress, presenting Sharon with a gift. "Happy birthday, Mrs. Bar

Several guests with close ties with the Barretts had encountered Mia Bowen before. They were taken aback by the uncanny resemblance between the two women, their surprise registering visibly.Mia smiled. "I know Mr. Barrett's ex-wife looks a lot like me. They say that pretty ladies often resemble each other. Don't you think so?"Nikki's expression hinted at her alarm as she inquired, "Mrs. Barrett, who is this?"Sharon offered an indifferent introduction. "She's Shelly's friend."Shelly quickly interjected, "That's not right, Aunt Sharon. Monalize is Tim's girlfriend.""What are you talking about, Shelly? Since when has Tim had a girlfriend? I'm not aware of that, and I certainly don't approve of her either," Sharon firmly declared. Nikki and her mother visibly relaxed upon hearing Sharon's stance. After all, a woman couldn't enter a wealthy family without proper acknowledgment by the family. Shelly persisted, "We'll find out once Tim arrives."Ignoring Shelly's comment, Sha

As soon as Mia said that, Sharon retorted, "You're quite bold to challenge Ms. Chapman's expertise, Ms. Monalize. She's a seasoned professional in this field."In truth, Mia hadn't intended to speak up. However, she foresaw potential doubts arising among the affluent guests if they followed Nikki's advice to purchase seeds from Aide Castle and encountered discrepancies in their growth. Mia corrected Nikki not out of personal interest but to safeguard the resort's reputation. Otherwise, she wouldn't even have bothered to speak up. Nikki gazed at Mia, displeased. "If you believe there's an error in my information, please enlighten me.""Firstly," Mia began evenly, "the optimal temperature for seed growth is 78.8°F, but it should vary during the sprouting, growth, and blooming stages. It's not advisable for the temperature to remain constant. "Additionally, while the recommended sunlight exposure duration is indeed eight hours, it shouldn't be continuous; rather, it should be cumu

When there was a chance to shower Mia with compliments, Shelly wouldn't hold back.Shelly even glared at Nikki as if chiding her for trying to stand out when she didn't know a thing."Everyone's here, Tim. The flowers are gorgeous," Luna's voice echoed from behind, her triumphant expression evident as she stood next to Timothy, casting a challenging glance at the affluent ladies.Timothy's gaze was immediately drawn to the woman in red, her striking attire perfectly complementing her demeanor.Noticing his gaze, Mia smiled.Finally, he arrived. Sharon beamed. "Tim, finally done with your work? Come here. Let me introduce someone to you. This is Nikki Chapman. You've met her before."A bashful smile adorned Nikki's face. As he drew closer toward her direction, her heart raced uncontrollably.Timothy exuded an air of effortless charm as he made his way through the crowd, his striking appearance capturing everyone's attention.However, he stopped right in front of Mia. "Do you f

Mia glanced over at Nikki, wondering how she'd realized that Shelly was wearing a fake. She had the real one with her, but no one had the chance to sneak a glance at it. How could she possibly tell its authenticity? In the next instant, Shelly replied confidently, "I did wear a knockoff before, but I bought everything I'm wearing now at the private fashion show yesterday. You're not even eligible to receive an invitation, so stop yapping."Another socialite chimed in, "Shelly, did you really buy all the haute couture from yesterday's show? You didn't even save a piece for us!""Oh, Mrs. Mayweather! It's all thanks to Monalize's platinum membership card that I got to select the pieces in advance. She bought them for me too!"Shelly's tone was laced with triumph as she shot a proud look at Nikki. "You get it now, don't you?"Nikki fell silent immediately. Mia heaved a sigh of relief. Shelly probably wore a lot of knockoffs back then because she couldn't afford the genuine pieces.

Mia smirked. "I just wanna have a taste of everything. I have a big appetite, so they won't all go to waste."Nikki threw in a sharp comment, "Oh, wow, Ms. Monalize. Anyone who didn't know better might think this is your first time seeing food. We eat modestly, after all.""Modestly? Nikki, with all due respect, your face was practically buried in that foie gras plate! There was literally nothing left! If someone didn't know you better, they might think you had a goose vendetta. Such impudence!" Shelly fired back. Lillian could no longer bear it. "Ms. Monalize, I heard you have a daughter. Why didn't you bring her over today?"The other socialites all glanced over at Mia upon Lillian's words. Mia was unfazed. "My daughter's feeling a little under the weather, so I didn't let her come.""Ms. Monalize, having a daughter isn't a big deal. Why are you keeping her from us? You'll have to introduce her to people sooner or later. You can't just abandon your kid because you want to bec

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.

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
Meet My Brothers Chapter 1179
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,
