Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen )
Chapter 474

Mia glanced over, her arms crossed firmly across her chest. “I must confess, my connection with Mr.Barrett is more. than just a casual friendship.”

“Are you admitting to having an inappropriate relationship with that magnate?”

Kennedy couldn’t remain silent any longer. “What inappropriate relationship? What are you all beingtaught here? Mia’s relationship with Mr. Barrett is genuine and morally upright!”

The students retorted, “Mr. Shaw, Mia has already confessed. Your clarification isn’t required here.What kind of relationship between a man and a woman could be deemed appropriate?”

“Marriage, would that be considered legitimate?”

Suddenly, Timothy’s deep, ominous voice resonated as he appeared in the office

doorway, his towering figure exuding authority.

Dressed in a refined suit, Timothy’s commanding presence stood out prominently among the others inthe

room.

A brief hush fell over the office as Timothy made his unexpected entrance.

Mia was caught off guard by his arrival.

Approaching her with a stoic expression, Timothy spoke in a subdued tone, “Are. you being falselyaccused?”

Mia pursed her lips. “It’s just a slight misunderstanding.”

Just then, Timothy gently placed his hand on Mia’s shoulder, pulling her into a comforting embrace.

Turning toward the nearby students, Timothy asserted firmly, “My wife values her privacy and prefers tokeep a low profile on campus, which unfortunately has resulted in some unfounded rumors.

“I’m here to clarify matters today. Mia is

my wife.”

As Timothy revealed this revelation, the entire room was left stunned.

The students who had previously interrogated Mia now appeared visibly unsettled. Who could havethought that Mia was actually Mrs. Barrett?

Dana, standing nearby, wore a grim expression. She felt her legs weaken beneath her.

Never in her wildest dreams had Dana imagined that Mia could be Mrs. Barrett. Could she even affordto antagonize someone of such high status?

Yet, Maya had never given any indication before. Dana couldn’t shake the feeling that she had beendeceived.

At that moment, Kennedy stepped forward to intervene, stating, “You see, I told you it was just amisunderstanding. None of you believed me. Now, quickly apologize to Mia and seek her forgiveness.

Exchanging hesitant glances, the students swiftly apologized, “Mia, we were misled by the forum’scontent, which led us to react inappropriately. Please forgive us.”

“Yeah, Mia, we had no idea about your identity as Mrs. Barrett. Your discretion is admirable. We werealso misinformed by the forum. It’s all because of that deceitful anonymous reporter.”

“Absolutely, Mr. Shaw needs to

apprehend the reporter. They’re too cunning, deliberately deceiving us like this.”

Upon hearing her classmates‘ apology, Mia’s demeanor softened.

“I accept your apology. However, regarding my identity as Mrs. Barrett, I’d like to keep it private for thetime being. I hope you can respect my wish for confidentiality.”

“Don’t worry, we won’t disclose it to anyone.”

Kennedy swiftly gestured with his hand. Very well, thank you for your

understanding, Mia. You may all go now.”

Dana attempted to leave discreetly but was intercepted by Timothy at the doorway.

She turned back, a hint of nervousness evident in her expression. “Mia, I’m having a stomachache allof a sudden. I need to use the restroom.”

Mia was perplexed by Timothy’s decision to stop Dana. Bowing his head, Timothy quietly disclosed,“She’s the anonymous reporter.”
