Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen )
Chapter 273

Unexpectedly, Mia found herself face–to–face with Maya sooner than she had anticipated.

The tension between them was unmistakable.

With an air of triumph, Shelly interjected, “Mia, today’s event is organized by Vista Properties. Maya’sfamily conglomerate. She is in charge and will be delivering a speech later on.”

Maya also took on a condescending posture. She had yet to retaliate for the slap Mia gave her duringtheir last encounter.

Mia raised an eyebrow and retorted with an icy tone, simply saying, “Okay.”

Feeling dissatisfied, Shelly persisted in her threats, “Mia, you must be afraid, right? Let me make thisclear. With Maya in charge, don’t even think about securing any scholarships.”

Arching an eyebrow, Mia replied, “While I may not attach significant importance to that scholarship,Maya, given your role as the person overseeing this event, aren’t you worried about

the potential repercussions of orchestrating things covertly?”

Maya’s lips curled into a chilling smile. “Even if you utter such claims, no one will believe them.

“I am the heiress of the Lane family, manipulating situations is child’s play for me. There won’t be

any discernible traces, so what can you possibly do to me?”

Shelly stifled a laugh with her hand. “Absolutely! But Mia, we’re not that petty. If you’re willing to

kneel and apologize, perhaps we can replace it in our hearts to forgive you.

“A mere word from Maya, and that scholarship might still be within your grasp.”

Mia maintained her composure, choosing to remain silent.

However, Gina couldn’t hold back and retorted, “How could you two engage in such reprehensibleactions? Aren’t you concerned about the possibility of being exposed?

“If I were to speak up, your predicament wouldn’t be a pleasant one either.”

With a mocking tone, Shelly scoffed, “Go ahead, see if anyone would take your words seriously.. You’refinancially poor, after all.”

“Well, you can’t be too sure about that,” Mia retorted with a serious expression.

She dangled her phone, stating, “Just now, I recorded a video capturing everything you said. If thisfootage were to circulate online, wouldn’t it cause a bigger uproar than Shelly’s private videos

Maya’s expression turned uneasy, and Shelly tried to snatch the phone away.

However, Mia was prepared and securely stashed it, saying, “Don’t bother. I’ve already backed up thevideo. Even if you manage to swipe my phone, it won’t make any difference.”

Shelly gritted her teeth in frustration. “Mia, you wouldn’t have the nerve!”

“Why don’t I demonstrate my courage to you?” Mia challenged.

Mia promptly retrieved her phone and began accessing her Twitter account.

Standing beside Mia, Maya immediately seized her wrist, wearing a distinctly displeased

expression. “Mia, please stop.”

Mia arched an eyebrow. “What’s the matter? Are you feeling uneasy?”

Suppressing her anger, Maya inquired, “What is it that you’re after?”

If Mia were to share the video online and Dominic discovered it, her professional standing would

be jeopardized. She would no longer be able to participate in the company’s affairs.

With the humiliation of being ousted by Dominic already looming, she had no desire to exacerbate

the situation.

Mia twirled her phone around, stating, “My terms are simple. If both of you apologize for the baselessthreats you just uttered, I won’t go ahead and share this video.”

“Apologize? Mia, are you out of your mind?” Shelly scoffed, showing no inclination whatsoever to offeran apology.

She turned to Maya and asserted, “Maya, there’s no need to be intimidated by Mia’s words.

“As the young lady of the Lane family, your brother will unquestionably trust you over Mia. We cansimply assert that these videos are fabricated.”
