MEET MY BROTHERS BY RED THIRTEEN - Season 9 Episode 41

Mia couldn’t hold back her laughter. “Well then, congratulations in advance to you.”

Connie casually traced her fingers over the bracelet on her wrist, her demeanor dripping with arrogance.

“If you have any sense, you’d consider accepting this marriage proposal sooner rather than later. Otherwise, you might find it impossible to match the Bowen family’s status later on.”

“No way. I won’t agree to marry someone who is a bad omen, it’s just unappealing. Besides, I’m all about looks. Lewis is just too unattractive for me, nowhere near as good-looking as my bodyguard.”

Connie’s expression turned angry immediately.

Isabella chimed in, adding fuel to the fire. “Mom, she’s referring to that bodyguard standing next to her. Since Mia is wearing his jacket, there must be something going on between them.”

Connie directed a scornful glare at Timothy standing nearby. “He’s just a lowly bodyguard without a penny to his name. Can he even compare to Lewis?”

Mia couldn’t contain her laughter. “Who knows, your son might not measure up to my bodyguard after all!”

Indeed, Timothy was far from an ordinary bodyguard.

However, Mia didn’t want to deal with Isabella and Connie any longer. She turned to the nearby staff and instructed, “Since Mrs. Bowen and her daughter are not interested in attending my banquet, please escort them out.”

Connie grew furious. “Mia, do you think I care about attending your banquet? If it weren’t for Lewis’ sake, I wouldn’t be here at all. Isabella, let’s go!”

“Yeah. Once our family teams up with the Barretts, the Lanes won’t stand a chance. Mia will surely beg to marry Lewis then!”

“Hmph, I can’t wait to see her arrogance crumble!”

As Mia watched the mother and daughter depart, she couldn’t help but feel frustrated. “Those two must have some serious issues.”

It sure seemed like they forgot to take their medication, as they were living in a dream world every day.

Glancing at Timothy beside her, Mia questioned, “Are you seriously considering collaborating with the Bowen family? With their lack of intelligence, won’t you be concerned about dragging down the Barrett family?”

Mia believed that if Timothy was going to collaborate, he should at least partner with someone intelligent.

What was the point of teaming up with the Bowen family if it was akin to digging his own grave?

Mia’s disbelief was evident as she gazed at Timothy.

He was supposed to be savvy in business, so why would he choose to collaborate with the Bowens? It simply didn’t make sense to her! Timothy responded curtly, “I’m not directly overseeing the projects in Nord City.”

“But as the CEO of the Barrett Group, shouldn’t you have control over all projects?”

“Given the scale and scope of our operations, I can’t micromanage every detail. Besides, the projects we’re working on in Nord City are relatively small, so they don’t require my direct supervision.”

Mia remained skeptical. “Small-scale projects? Then why is the Bowen family behaving as if they’ve taken over the entire Barrett Group?” Earlier, Isabella and Connie had even boasted about surpassing the Lane family as the top powerhouse in Nord City.

A frown formed on Timothy’s face. “There’s no point in arguing with irrational people.”

“You’re right,” Mia agreed, swiftly setting aside thoughts of the Bowen family.

She went on to greet and converse with the individuals involved in the movie release. After all, that was her main reason for being there today. Soon after, a few elite young men glanced at Mia and remarked, “It’s really hot today. Why are you still wearing such a thick suit jacket?” “Yeah, Mia, take off your jacket. It’s so hot, and your dress looks amazing. You don’t need to hide it.”

“Exactly, you have a fantastic figure. Why bother about others’ opinions?”

Feeling a bit warm herself, Mia smiled sheepishly and explained, “I had a mishap while checking in earlier and accidentally ripped my dress.”
