FreeNovelChapter 720 Mia proposed, “There’s no need for you to go to such lengths. Just record a video of yourself reprimanding Asher and send it to me. You don’t have to apologize in person. Sometimes, being too polite can cacross as a bit fake, you know?” As Mia's words trailed off, Luna’s expression froze, clearly caught off guard by Mia's unexpected rebuttal.
Inwardly, Luna couldn’t help but curse; she had indeed been dishonest earlier.
Scolding Asher was completely out of the question for Luna. On the contrary, she believed Asher had done an excellent job of putting Ginger in her place.
Considering his status as a member of the Barrett family, Luna believed his actions were justified.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNonetheless, Luna received a scolding from Timothy over the phone. He went as far as suspending her credit cards, urging her to cut back on shopping and devote more tto Asher.
Despite Luna’s reluctance, she knew she had to uphold her facade by taking the initiative to apologize. Whether Mia accepted it or not didn’t concern her; she was merely putting on a show for Timothy.
However, Mia's sudden request for Luna to record a video disciplining Asher seemed too far-fetched for her.
Refusing to yield, Luna retorted, “Ms. Monalize, perhaps you're unaware, but Asher is part of the Barrett family.
Despite being his mother, | don’t have the authority to discipline him. After all, Mrs. Barrett is the one who dotes on him more.” Upon hearing Luna’s subtle boasting, Mia arched an eyebrow and inquired, 1/3 “Honestly, I'm intrigued. Is Asher truly Timothy's son?” “Mia, we're all Intelligent people here. Sthings don’t need to be explicitly said. When it comes to Asher’s connection to Timothy, I'm sure you can see it clearly. After all, he’s been part of the Barrett family since birth,” Luna countered.
Mia wasn’t particularly taken aback by Luna’s response.
Nonetheless, she couldn't help but wonder if Asher was indeed Timothy's biological child.
Swiftly, Mia composed herself, masking her inner turmoil. “Ms. Maynard, you seem very open-minded, being ready to accept such a situation without insisting on a formal title or status,” she nonchalantly remarked.
“I don’t care about status; all | want is for Asher to be part of the Barrett family.” Luna intentionally spoke ambiguously, her tone tinged with a touch of arrogance. “Ms. Monalize, | heard about your disagreement with Mrs.
Barrett.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Isn't it common sense for a married woman to listen to her in-laws, especially with a child in the picture? So, I'm curious, what do you think could be gained from upsetting Mrs. Barrett so early on?” Mia sensed from Luna’s expression that Sharon might make an unexpected appearance at the café that day. She suspected Luna had said something in private to provoke Sharon into seeking Mia out.
Mia’s lips curled into a smirk as she raised an eyebrow. “Ms. Maynard, you're mistaken. Only those without power, status, or even the affection of a man feel compelled to cater to their in-laws. | lack nothing and am under no obligation to please anyone.” Luna’s expression soured instantly, her jealousy bubbling to the surface. If only her social status were a bit higher, she wouldn't feel inferior to Mia at Sporting Tyler emerging from the elevator, Mia's demeanor shifted abruptly. With a scowl, she snapped, “Ms.
Maynard, it’s tfor you to leave. And don’t bother coming back.” After uttering those words, Mia approached Tyler. “Are the test results. ready?” Tyler nodded in confirmation.
Mia suggested, “Let's discuss this matter in the consultation room.” A hint of curiosity flickered in Luna’s eyes. She couldn't help but wonder if Ginger was genuinely injured.
As Luna attempted to sneak over, she was promptly stopped by the bodyguard. “Please leave the premises immediately,” he instructed.
Reluctantly, Luna complied and left the first floor. Nonetheless, she was determined to figure out exactly what the test results were.
Meanwhile, Mia proceeded to Tyler's office and promptly dialed Timothy. Mr. Barrett, Ginger’s diagnosis has been confirmed.”
