Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen )
Chapter 491

Trepidation trapped Maya as soon as she heard the news. Something was going on without herknowledge.

She glanced at Blake. “Why did Dominic and the others suddenly want to build an exhibition hall for theDesign School? It’ll cost an arm and a leg, won’t it?”

“I heard that the proposed investment is one million dollars.”

“One million dollars? That’s a huge sum of money!” Her fingers clutched onto the hat tightly. “Do youknow the reason behind this?”

“No, not for now. But I think it has something to do with the Fleur International Design Competition. Mr.Dominic’s construction company puts a lot of importance on design. They’ve just established a newsubsidiary in Bern City. I bet this is a plan for a business expansion. They’re looking out for talenteddesigners.”

Maya gave it a thought. Blake’s analysis made sense.

It hadn’t been long since Dominic’s subsidiary company was established in Bern City. Besides, he hadalso built exhibition halls in universities back in Nord City.

Annoyed, she wore the hat only to frown because of the stinging pain from her scalp. “Damn it, MiaBowen! I’m going to avenge myself tenfold! Find Dana at all costs!”

If she managed to replace Dana, she’d be able to trick Dominic and the others to buy herself some time.

“Don’t worry, Ms. Lane. I’ve asked a staff member from the luxury store to message her that she won aprize. A materialistic person like her won’t be able to turn down the offer. Once she shows herself in the

mall, we’ll be able to catch her.”

Maya smiled. “Not bad. Dana will definitely show up. Help me contact that store manager. I want thatdress from the latest collection and that bag made of rare leather. When can they be delivered? I wantto wear them to the graduation party.”

He paused momentarily. “Someone bought the dress yesterday, but the bag is still there.”

“Who bought it?”

“A VIP, I heard.”

What a pity.

Maya thought that it would’ve been great if she was a VIP member. She heard that Eva owned a VIPmembership card, but forgot to borrow the card from her. Well, Eva never liked her anyway.

A dark glint clouded Maya’s eyes as she thought, “I’m the daughter of the Lane family. As a mere

outsider, how dare Eva not pay me the respect I deserve! Just what is she feeling superior about?”

At the end of the day, an upset Maya ordered, “Buy the bag then.”

“Ms. Lane, your credit limit is reduced to ten thousand dollars after you fought with Mr. Dominic on theday you returned to the country. That bag costs 60 thousand dollars.”

“I have cash.”

“The cash you have is spent on Ms. Barrett’s credit card. For your information, she uses it lavishly.”

Maya frowned. She didn’t expect herself to lack money.

Blake suggested, “How about signing the agreement offered by Mr. Dominic? It offers many properties,

shares, and cash.”

“If I sign it, I’ll have nothing to do with the Lanes anymore. Only a fool would sign that agreement.”

No matter how angry she was, she knew how reality was. “Freeze Shelly’s credit card. That uselesstrash isn’t helping. She doesn’t deserve to spend my money.”

“Alright.”

“And replace out who bought that dress. Look for an imitation of that bag. Pick something that appearsauthentic. No one at the graduation evening party can afford to buy branded limited editions. Even ifthe bag is fake, no one will notice.”

He went along with it. “You’re right. You’re Ms. Lane. No one will suspect that you use dupes.”

She snorted. “Mia should be attending that party. It’s time I pick on her shortcomings. Since Dominicand the others will be there as well, I’ll have him teach her a lesson!”

The sheer imagination of the scene gave her an adrenaline rush. (2)

She couldn’t wait for the weekend to come.
