Meet My Brothers

Before they realized it, Timothy and Mia found themselves in close proximity.

With Mia's fingers delicately wrapped around his tie, Timothy surrendered to her touch, resembling a compliant, large canine.

Their eyes locked in an intense gaze, a silent exchange unfolding between them.

Mia stood tall above Timothy, her gaze fixed on him.

Feeling nervous, Timothy's throat tightened as he spoke, "Well, you could see it as my way of apologizing."

A smile tugged at Mia's lips as she leaned closer to him, their breaths intertwining.

At that moment, Timothy's heart raced, his gaze locked intensely on Mia as if attempting to captivate her with his eyes.

Just as their lips were on the verge of meeting, Mia tilted her head slightly and whispered, "The fish has taken the bait. Mr. Barrett, what are you still daydreaming about?"

At Mia's words, Timothy snapped back to reality, a subtle hint of disappointment flickering in his eyes. However, in the next instant, his hand found its way to her waist, his demeanor cloaked in ambiguity. Taken aback, Mia instinctively pushed him away.

Despite her reaction, Timothy smoothly caught her wrist. "The show isn't over yet," he murmured.

Mia froze, wondering if Timothy was deliberately orchestrating this moment.

But at this juncture, she couldn't be bothered with maintaining the facade. Rising abruptly to her feet, she announced, "I believe our stroll has lasted long enough for today." Upon hearing this, Timothy eventually stood up, a fond smile playing on his lips as he observed Mia's departing figure.

Without hesitation, he followed after her, closing the distance between them.

In truth, Timothy didn't spare a thought for whether Luna was watching. After all, he paid little heed to irrelevant individuals.

Once the pair had left the garden, Luna emerged from the shadows. She was dressed in her caregiver uniform, her expression tinged with melancholy.

How was it that Luna found herself at rock bottom, while Mia effortlessly secured Timothy's affection?

If Mia were to marry Timothy in the future, she would not only inherit the Lane family fortune but also become the young mistress of the esteemed Barrett family in Bern City. It would be the pinnacle of success for her! Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Luna's envy was almost tangible. Why couldn't she be the fortunate one instead?

In the beginning, she bore a son for Hector, who tragically passed away.

However, upon uncovering that Hector was an illegitimate child of the esteemed Barrett family, Luna felt a surge of hope within her.

She believed she could rise to the status of a mistress in a distinguished household. Despite Hector's illegitimacy, Luna hoped to secure some financial stability as the mother of his child.

However, fate had other plans. Hector's untimely death shattered her dreams. He never had the opportunity to return to the Barrett family and legitimize their status.

As time passed, Laura also refused to acknowledge Luna's identity, relegating her to a modest existence in the shadows of the Barrett family.

Upon finally discovering her

biological father, Luna believed she

could embrace a life of luxury by his side. Unfortunately, she was ultimately manipulated and

discarded by him, leaving hepwith nothing.

Why had she put in so much effort to carve out a livelihood, to dream of a better life, only to end up with nothing?

In contrast, Mia seemed to effortlessly obtain everything she desired.

Indeed, life was terribly unjust!

As Luna contemplated this, her face paled with realization.

Just then, a middle-aged woman approached her. "What are you doing here? I heard Mrs. Barrett Senior in the VIP ward upstairs is showing signs of improvement.

"Coincidentally, one of the caregivers

there needs time off due to a recent

family loss. Didn't you mention having some medical knowledge before? They're wondering if you

might be up for the task."

Luna quickly plastered on a smile and responded, "Absolutely, I'm more than capable. Thank you for recommending me, Ms. Bloom.

"By the way, regarding that handbag you mentioned earlier, I managed to secure it for you at a discounted price."

A malevolent glint danced in Luna's eyes. If she couldn't attain a life of happiness, she was determined to prevent others from doing so.

Laura was akin to a ticking time bomb, waiting to explode. If she ever remembered Luna's deceit and the subsequent fall down the stairs, Luna's entire world would collapse into ruins.
