MEET MY BROTHERS BY RED THIRTEEN - Season 9 Episode 62

Upon hearing Jason’s inquiry, Mia hurried to explain, her tone betraying a hint of nervousness. “Oh, that rumor? It’s merely media exaggeration. “I had a minor slip, and my bodyguard assisted me. I suspect the Bowen family is behind this, attempting to smear my reputation.”

“I see. Rest assured, I’ll handle it.”

Mia felt a wave of relief as Jason seemed to accept her explanation without any hint of suspicion. Yet, she knew she couldn’t conceal Timothy’s presence indefinitely.

Beside Mia, Timothy overheard her conversation with Jason. Her tone and demeanor were noticeably different; it was evident that Mia shared a close relationship with her family.

Turning to him, Mia asked, “If I arrange for you to visit Ginger in the hospital, will you agree to leave Nord City?”

Timothy’s gaze narrowed slightly as he responded, “Certainly. As long as Ginger is healthy, everything is open for discussion.”

However, Timothy’s reply merely hinted at the possibility of negotiation; he didn’t outright promise to leave Nord City.

The following morning, Mia received a report from Peyton.

Someone had intentionally leaked information online, alleging illicit dealings behind the promotional webpage of her movie, thereby implicating an innocent woman in the process.

The news spread rapidly, tarnishing the positive image of Mia’s inspirational film.

Mia didn’t need to speculate; she was certain that someone from the Bowen family was behind the smear campaign.

Turning to Peyton, Mia instructed, “Dispatch someone from the PR department to address this issue immediately.

“Also, what’s Harper’s final decision? Is she opting for a settlement or proceeding with a lawsuit against the Jones family?”

“Harper has chosen to pursue legal action against the Jones family.” “That’s excellent news.”

Mia was aware of the Jones family’s recent attempts to intimidate and bribe Harper. Fortunately, Harper remained steadfast and refused to compromise.

Glancing at Peyton beside her, Mia stated firmly, “We’ll offer Harper our full support as long as she stands firm.”

Observing Mia, Timothy remarked with surprise, “I’m surprised to see you being so generous to a stranger.”

“Firstly, there’s an unspoken pact of mutual support among women, something you may not fully grasp. Secondly, the Jones family is using the Bowen family’s support to intentionally sabotage my project.

“If I were to overlook this, it would signal weakness from the Lane family to the Bowen family. From any standpoint, I cannot afford to leave these issues unresolved.”

Peyton then added, “Ms. Mia, there’s a promotional event for the movie this afternoon. Would you like to attend?”

“Absolutely. Please ensure the media is briefed beforehand to keep their questions in check. We can’t risk anyone intentionally disrupting the event.”

After all, the Bowen family was certainly capable of such tactics.

This marked Mia’s debut in the entertainment industry, underscoring the importance of her making a confident entrance. Hence, she insisted on being involved in every step of the process.

In the afternoon, Mia slipped into her selected attire before settling into the car and heading toward the event venue.

As Mia glanced out at the gathered media reporters, she took a deep breath. Public opinion was the most unpredictable factor, and she knew she was in for a tough battle.

Timothy glanced at her and suggested, “Let me go down first and hold off those reporters for you.”

Mia nodded gratefully. Having a bodyguard by her side at this moment was undoubtedly reassuring.

She remembered how Timothy had dealt with reporters last time, even resorting to smashing their microphones and cameras. It was likely that journalists would be more cautious in his presence this time.

Swinging open the car door, Timothy gracefully stepped out, his steely gaze sweeping over the nearby reporters.

Just as he moved to the other side to open the door for Mia, a man in a suit with a leather-trimmed collar swiftly approached from the side.

The man preempted Timothy, taking the initiative to open the car door for Mia.

Seeing this, Timothy’s eyebrows immediately furrowed in disapproval.
