Chapter 121
Maya’s sudden approach caught Mia off guard, sending a ripple of discomfort through her.
What move could Maya attempt to pull off next?
Mia withdrew her arm with a cold expression, suggesting some distance might be wise.
“Even if you and Tim part ways, there’s no reason we can’t remain amicable,” Maya retorted.
A glint of irony lit up Mia’s eyes as she remarked, “Ms. Lane, have you ever seen someone befriend the ‘other
woman‘?”
At the mention of “the other woman,” Maya’s expression instantly darkened.
However, under the watchful eyes of Timothy and Grandma Laura, Maya swiftly shifted to feigned vulnerability. “Mia, why the animosity? I truly desire harmony among us all.”
Without missing a beat, Sharon jumped to Maya’s defense, casting a reproachful glance at Mia.
“Mia, have you no shame? Look at Mia’s generosity. Who are you to label her as ‘the other woman‘?” Sharon reprimanded.
“Had you not intervened, Maya might have been my daughter–in–law by now. Imagine, three years have elapsed. They could’ve even had a couple of kids!” she continued.
With irony in her gaze, Mia retorted, “Well then, here’s to a joyful union and a speedy start to family life. Would that be satisfactory?”
Sharon’s persistence flared when Mia began to walk away.
“Hold it, Mia! What’s with this hostility? My son is on the brink of proposing to Maya. If you dare to cause any trouble, I won’t let you off the hook,” Sharon warned sharply.
Timothy intervened. “That’s enough.”
Hearing this, Sharon restrained herself from saying more. “Tim, Mia just dropped by with some food for
Grandma. Keep an eye on her. We can’t afford any slip–ups in front of Grandma.‘
A shadow crossed Timothy’s face. “There won’t be any,” he asserted firmly.
Before Sharon could push further, Maya gently restrained her. “Mrs. Barrett, I have faith in Tim’s discretion.
After all, we’re all here with Grandma’s best interests in mind.”
“Maya seems more level–headed,” Sharon remarked. “Tim, perhaps you could accompany her to choose
wedding dresses?”
A flicker of anticipation illuminated Maya’s eyes as she awaited Timothy’s response. Yet, he remained impassive. “I’m occupied. Let’s not forget, this is merely a facade.”
Timothy turned to Maya. “When can we expect Connor?” he inquired.
+15 BONOS
Mia responded with tension, “Soon.”
Sharon shared the news about the surgery being scheduled at the end of the upcoming month. Maya sighed in relief. “That’s fine. Connor will be available by the end of the month.”
The extended timeframe provided Maya with a broader window to convince Connor.
“Tim, after consulting with an astrologer, I’ve learned that a favorable date is approaching next week. How do you feel about getting engaged to Maya on that particular day?” Sharon inquired.
Timothy’s face remained unreadable. “It doesn’t matter.”

The readers' comments on the novel: Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen
I've never encountered a book with over 1,000 chapters. Does the author or platform not use an editor? The writing and grammatical errors are quite frustrating....
Why does it read status ongoing? If it’s ongoing chapter 1187 isn’t the end, I’m confused...
Chapter 1187 is the end? Too soon of a ending if its the ending they just ruined the sorty for me...
