MEET MY BROTHERS BY RED THIRTEEN - Season 6 Episode 68

“Speaking ill of others behind their backs isn’t very kind, is it?”

Mia’s back tensed as she turned to see Nicholas in the doorway, leaning against the frame with a distant look in his eyes.

She hadn’t expected to be caught like that.

Managing a forced smile, she said, “I-I didn’t mean it that way. What I was trying to say is that doctors with bad tempers are often more skilled.”

“Mia, you don’t have to worry, that’s just his personality,” Connor said, patting her shoulder.

“By the way, Mia, why don’t we go out for dinner tonight? It’s not often that Nick comes all the way to Bern City for a week on business just to visit me. I think it’s only fair to treat him to a meal.”

“Seriously, dude. When you heard about your sister, didn’t you also make a special trip just to see what she looks like?”

Mia blinked in disbelief; she hadn’t realized Connor had gone out of his way to come and see her.

The next moment, Connor proudly exclaimed, “Isn’t my sister beautiful and adorable? Those without sisters can only envy us for a lifetime, hahaha!”

The corner of Mia’s lips twitched. Why did Connor seem so annoying right now? Didn’t he notice the scalpel in Nicholas’ hand just now?

Indeed, the atmosphere around them seemed to grow noticeably tense.

As Nicholas put on his mask, he muttered a disdainful “boring”, before swiftly departing.

Watching Nicholas’ retreating figure, Mia asked, “Connor, is it appropriate to speak like that?”

“It’s fine, we’ve been talking like this since we were kids.”

Nonetheless, Mia quietly resolved not to allow Nicholas to examine her next time, fearing his potential retaliation.

At that moment, she remembered Laura’s earlier phone call. “Hey, Connor, didn’t Grandma Laura just get discharged from the hospital? She’s thinking of hosting a small party to cheer things up and would like to invite you guys.”

Connor’s expression became complicated. “Are you sure Grandma Laura wants to invite all of us? Isn’t she worried that your brothers and I will beat Timothy up?”

“Ahem, Connor, I’m being serious. Despite any grievances between Timothy and me, Grandma Laura has always been kind to me. Before I leave Bern City, I also hope to reconcile with her.”

“If Grandma Laura is willing to reschedule the event until after your exams, then Dominic, Nathan, and Jason should all be free to attend. After all, they promised to accompany you back.”

Mia nodded in agreement. “I’ll discuss it with Grandma Laura.”

Indeed, only Connor and Claude resided in Bern City. While Liam was also in town, he was busy with his filming commitments.

That evening, Mia left campus promptly and made her way to the restaurant.

As she approached the entrance, she spotted Nicholas stepping out of a cab.

He sported a white short-sleeved shirt paired with khaki casual trousers, presenting a remarkably neat and handsome appearance.

While waiting at the entrance, Mia only managed to catch a glimpse of Nicholas stepping out of the cab. Connor was noticeably absent.

Perplexed, she inquired, “Where’s Connor?”

Suddenly, it dawned on Mia why Nicholas had arrived in the cab earlier; she couldn’t help but wonder why Connor hadn’t driven over today.

Unfazed, Nicholas ascended the steps and responded casually, “He had a patient who needed immediate attention. He’ll join us later.”

“Okay.”

Mia was aware of Connor’s demanding schedule as a doctor, often encountering emergencies at the hospital.

She suggested, “I’ve dined at this restaurant several times. There’s also a night market nearby. We could explore it after our meal.”

Their conversation continued as they made their way into the restaurant.

As they stepped in, Mia couldn’t help but notice a group of individuals exiting the nearby elevator.

At the forefront was a tall, slender man clad in a navy blue suit, his handsome features catching her eye.
