Sharon was like a cat on hot bricks, unable to comprehend Nina’s antics which were basically adding

fuel to the fire!

Timothy glanced at Nina. “Since you’re feeling under the weather, you should return and get somerest.”

She was driven out of the place before she could say anything.

The others watched the entirety of the situation, but they zipped their lips, especially the rich ladies who

bullied Mia before.

They either held their head low or hid in a corner, not wanting to meet Mia’s eyes.

The status of the Lane family was tantamount to the Barretts.

Most of the guests ran subsidiary companies in Nord City. The moment they offended the Lanes wouldbe the moment they kissed goodbye to their dream of building a business in Nord City.

Dominic looked at Sharon. “It seems like the Barretts are still reasonable in character.”

Sharon forced a smile. “You’re flattering. Welcome to the Barrett residence. Here, come this way.”

Looking at how Sharon was all respectful, Mia figured that only one’s status and power could makeSharon sit up and take notice of them.

Eva linked arms with Mia. “Come on, Mia. Let’s go.”

“Okay.”

Confidently, Mia walked into the parlor with her brothers.

There, Laura sat on the couch gracefully in a cocktail dress. She was in high spirits. “Mia, you’re here.Come, let me take a look at you. You’re gorgeous today.”

“Grandma, you look good today too.” Mia took a seat next to Laura. “Allow me to introduce them to you.This is Dominic and Eva, my eldest brother and his wife. Here’s Nathan, Connor, the doctor who was in

charge of your surgery. Claude..

One by one, she introduced her family to Laura.

Laura nodded in acknowledgment at the six handsome men. “It’s no wonder you’re a beauty, Mia.Turns out the good–looking gene runs in the family. They’re gorgeous!”

Dominic spoke up, “Mrs. Barrett Senior, thank you for taking care of Mia for the past few years. Andthank you for paying the medical bills for Mia’s uncle.”

She waved her hand. “That’s nothing. We owe her too much. I’m glad that she has found her family. Ican finally have peace of mind now.

Laura’s words and natural interaction with Mia were enough to tell Connor that she treated Mia well

He offered, “Mrs. Barrett Senior, I’ll come over to check on you a few months later. If you feel under theweather, you can reach out to me at any time.”

“Thank you. You’re the reason that I’m able to be here. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have known how long!could last. This is all thanks to Mia too.”

Mia held Laura’s arm. “Nonsense, Grandma. I should be thanking you instead. My uncle wouldn’t havebeen able to last the past three years without you.”

Smiling and giggling, they had a fun time.

Dominic could now understand why Mia treated Laura so well despite the Barrett family’s spiteful

treatment.

Right then, Timothy came over only to see Mia sitting next to Laura. Mixed feelings surged in him.

The Lanes simultaneously looked at the incoming person. Their eyes read the same emotion that said.”

This man is such an eyesore!”
