Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen )
Chapter 141

The crowd surged into commotion.

Liam seethed at the thought of Timothy’s insanity.

Shelly jeered from behind, “Mia Bowen, it’s ten million now. Raise your number if you have the money.If you can’t cough up enough money, you’ll be detained here.”

The next thing that happened was Liam raising Mia’s hand. “Twelve million!”

Mia was stunned while he appeared rather calm. He didn’t lack money anyway.

As long as Mia took a liking to something, no one could take it away from her–Liam firmly believed so.

Although 12 million dollars was kinda far–fetched, he had five brothers–or more like ATMs–to count on!

Timothy was equally taken aback. After all, it was such a huge amount of money.

Still, announcing defeat was not in his plans.

The host on stage appeared hesitant as well.

Soon, an attendant approached Liam. “Excuse me, sir. Since it involves a huge amount of money, wehave to verify your funding to make sure that it’s fair.”

Shelly gloated. “Did I hit the bulls–eye?”

Liam rose from his seat. “Let’s go. Where to?”

No one had verified his wealth status in Nord City before. Thus, it was normal for the people in BernCity to be oblivious to it.

Mia tagged along as well, with Timothy’s dark eyes observing her.

Jealousy turned Maya into a green–eyed monster.

She knew Liam’s wealth very well. How could he lack money when the Lane family was backing him?

For Liam to spend 12 million dollars on that necklace for her? Mia’s lucky fate elicited envy in Maya.

Suppressing her jealousy from erupting, Maya noticed Timothy’s grim expression.

She added fuel to the fire. “Timothy, it seems like Ms. Bowen has found someone generous. But ourfamily is a prestigious family in Nord City. I doubt my family would agree to their relationship.”

Shelly saw eye to eye with that. “I know, right? Her background is laid on the table, and yet she’sdaydreaming of being a Cinderella. She should’ve known her place!”

“Enough!” He interrupted Shelly and strode away.

At the same time, Mia accompanied Liam to a VIP room.

He suggested, “Wait here, Mia. It’s just a trivial matter. Don’t worry about it.”

“Okay. I’ll wait for you outside.” She didn’t enter the room as he told her, but it didn’t shake her concernoff.

It was a staggering 12 million dollars!

If he didn’t have enough money, would he be detained?

Pacing back and forth didn’t help to smoothen the anxiety.

“What’s the matter you don’t have the money?” A man’s low voice sounded.

Mia’s head snapped to his. There was a pause before she asked, “If that’s the case, would you lend mesome money?”

Her bravado provoked him. “Do I look like an idiot?”

A soft chuckle escaped her lips when she heard the word “idiot“. Marching forward, she primped his tie.

Stiffness riveted him at that spot. He lowered his gaze onto the crown of her head, and his Adam’sapple bobbed.

Despite his unnatural reaction, his tone remained steely. “Why? Now that you replace out that he’s not rich,are you trying to abandon him and-”

A cough cut him off.

Mia tightened his tie around his neck, and she looked at him with dark eyes. “Then, what are you doinghere, Mr. Barrett?

“Seeing how much you care for me makes me think that you might have lingering feelings for me.”

He coughed. “Let go of me!”

He couldn’t believe that she had the guts to hurt him.
