Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen )
Chapter 487

Mia looked at Eva. Everything felt surreal to her, especially when Eva gave the other party a realitycheck by flashing her VIP membership card.

Eva was so cool.

Eva let out a wry cough. “Your brothers‘ businesses are on the roll lately. The companies that aresupposed to be listed are listed. I previously invested my wedding gift in their startups and I now shouldreceive my returns, shouldn’t I?”

“Is this how successful their businesses are?” Something felt off to Mia, but she couldn’t quite put her

finger on it.

Eva went silent for a moment. When she was going to say something, Mia’s phone rang.

Mia checked her phone and realized that it was a message from Timothy. ‘Done shopping?”

She had a guess–Sharon might’ve snitched to that bastard.

“Mia, who’s texting you?” asked Eva.

“A friend.” Hurriedly, Mia kept her phone.

The store manager approached her with a warm smile. “This is a bag from our latest collection. Itcomplements the dress really well. Do you like it?”

Eva’s eyes casually observed the bag. “Oh, it’s rare to come across this kind of leather. Why didn’t youbring it out earlier? Were you afraid that I couldn’t afford it?”

The manager said apologetically, “No. We have a rule for selling this bag. We have to wait three daysbefore we can sell it.”

That strange rule piqued Mia’s interest. “If so, why are you bringing it out right now?”

“We’d like to make up for the misunderstanding that occurred, Mrs. Barrett.”

“Mrs. Barrett?” Her expression shifted. “Did Timothy tell you to do this?”

Realizing that she had made a slip of the tongue, the manager covered her mouth out of fear.

Eva pulled Mia’s hand. “We don’t need this bag, Mia. Tell Timothy Barrett that we can afford thesebags. We don’t need the Barretts!”

Eva didn’t seem to be surprised at all. Besides, she didn’t question anything about Timothy whenShelly misspoke a while ago.

Baffled, Mia asked, “Eva, have you long known what happened between Timothy and I?”

“Seems like I can’t keep it a secret anymore.” Eva motioned for the store manager to leave beforesighing. “Silly girl. Why didn’t you tell us sooner? About you and the Barretts? Are you afraid of causing

us trouble?”

Mia gave a nod. “Yeah, we’re in Bern City. Plus, there’s nothing between us anymore, so I figuredthere’s no need to tell you guys about it.”

“That’s your one–sided thought, Mia. I don’t think Timothy feels the same way. He even gifted you such

an expensive bag!”

There was an unnatural shift to Mia’s expression as she lowered her voice. “He’s worried that his

grandmother might replace out about our divorce. It’ll take a toll on her health.”

Eva scoffed, “That’s why Timothy, that jerk, doesn’t want to divorce?”

“Yeah,” answered Mia,

Eva slammed the couch in a fit of fury. “Don’t be afraid, Mia. Leave the divorce to Jason. We’ll makesure

to empty his bank accounts!”

“I know how to deal with this, Eva.”

“Mia, oh, Mia, You’ve suffered a lot because of the Barretts during those three years, haven’t you? I can

tell from how haughty your mother–in–law is. But things are different now. You have us, your family.We’ve got your back. There’s nothing to be afraid of. Dominic and I will go to their doorstep anddemand an explanation. How dare that witch bully you! She’s got a death wish!”

That was the last thing Mia wanted.

She pulled Eva’s hand. “Eva, I just want to leave in peace. I don’t want to have anything to do withthem

anymore.”
