Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen )
Chapter 553

Gina nodded in response. “Taylor, you’re quite perceptive. That does sound like the most logical explanation.” 

Ramona couldn’t help but snort in disbelief. “But that’s absurd! Mia’s ex–husband is an older man. How could he possibly be so attractive?” 

Jolene also joined in, “Exactly! If Mia’s husband truly is that handsome, wealthy, and charming, why would she ever get a divorce? If it were me, I’d hold onto him tightly no matter what.” 

Gina couldn’t help but chuckle at Ramona and Jolene’s skepticism. “It seems like some people criticize what they can’t have. 

“Besides, Mia is now a wealthy heiress; she doesn’t need to rely on a man. Yet, her ex–husband keeps clinging to her.” 

Ramona remained defiant. “I refuse to believe it.” 

“I couldn’t care less about whether you believe it or not. Ramona, instead of meddling in others‘ affairs. perhaps you should focus on saving your family’s failing company from bankruptcy.” 

Ramona’s expression turned haughty. “I’ll replace out who Mia’s sugar daddy is. Then we’ll see how much longer she can maintain her arrogance.” 

Gina remained silent. Goincidentally, Taylor’s car arrived just in time, and the two of them departed from the restaurant together. 

Gradually, the rest of the group dispersed one by one. 

Ramona turned to Jeremy with a hopeful look. “Since you’re still here, why don’t you give me a ride?” 

Jeremy’s expression darkened; moments ago, he had been searching for details about the CEO of the 

Barrett Group. 

Despite the scant information available, Jeremy managed to locate photos on the company’s official website. 

To his disbelief, the man who had just left was none other than the CEO of the Barrett Group–Timothy Barrett! 

Jeremy nearly dropped his phone in shock upon making the discovery. 

It dawned on him that three years ago, Mia had married the CEO of the Barrett Group, not some elderly man as he had presumed! 

Deliberately, Ramona approached Jeremy. “Jeremy, what’s the matter? You look awful. Are you feeling unwell?” 

“Just leave me alone!” Jeremy snapped, pushing Ramona away in frustration. 

Ramona nearly stumbled backward, her frustration evident as she retorted, “Jeremy, what’s gotten into you? Our relationship was fine until Mia showed up. Besides, your family won’t approve of a divorced woman like her.” 

“Ramona, do you know who Mia’s ex–husband is?”

“Isn’t he just some wealthy old man?” Ramona replied disdainfully. 

Jeremy pulled out his phone and showed Ramona the photo of Timothy. “Take a good look. The man your just saw is the president of the Barrett Group. He’s Mia’s ex–husband!” 

Ramona’s complexion paled in shock. “How is that possible? How could an orphan like Mia marry 

someone from the Barrett family?” 

Jeremy retrieved his phone, his demeanor turning serious, “Maybe it’s best if we don’t keep in touch. 

Let’s cancel the project we discussed earlier. After all, we’re not that familiar with each other.” 

Undeterred by the heavy rain, Jeremy briskly made his way to the parking lot and drove off. 

He couldn’t afford to be entangled in Ramona’s schemes. With Mia’s affiliation with the Barretts, offending them was simply out of the question. 

Ramona stood frozen in disbelief, trying to make sense of it all. How could Mia’s ex–husband be the president of the Barrett Group? 

Lost in her thoughts, Ramona stumbled and fell on the steps, wincing in pain. 

Turning to Jolene for help, she urged, “Why are you just standing there? Help me up and call a cab to drop me home!” 

But Jolene remained unmoved, speaking condescendingly, “Ramona, do you still see yourself as a wealthy young lady? 

“Your family’s company has gone bankrupt, and now you’ve even offended the Barrett family. Do you think you still have a place here?”
