Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen novel Chapter 243

Chapter 243 

Maya couldn’t comprehend why Timothy had left, and now, her brothers were also following suit. 

They were her family, after all. On a day as significant as her engagement, what could possibly take precedence over her? 

Despite Timothy’s absence, having her brothers present could have salvaged the situation. 

However, with their departure, wouldn’t she inevitably become a subject of ridicule? 

Maya intended to wait until Mia arrived, determined to assertively confront her once again. 

Dominic addressed her. “Maya, given Timothy’s departure, proceeding with the engagement today seems pointless. Let’s cancel it.” 

At the mention of canceling the engagement, Maya’s complexion instantly paled. 

She promptly responded, “Canceling the engagement is not an option. Even if Timothy can’t make 

it due to work, we should proceed as planned.” 

After all, even with Timothy unconscious in a hospital bed three years ago, Mia still managed to 

marry into the Barrett family. 

Connor’s expression held a trace of contempt. “Maya, how long will you continue deluding 

yourself? Do you genuinely believe Timothy is wholeheartedly interested in marrying you?” 

“Connor, what are you implying? Timothy clearly wants to marry me! Why else would we be 

having this engagement ceremony today?” 

Maya suddenly sensed a discrepancy in Connor’s words. 

“Maya, wasn’t Timothy’s decision to marry you based on my agreement to perform surgery for 

Mrs. Barrett Senior?” 

Maya’s expression froze, realizing that Connor was privy to this information. 

She attempted to clarify. “Connor, it’s my own affair whether Tim loves me or not. I love him, and I 

want to marry him. I believe he will recognize my sincerity over time.” 

“But Maya, lies will eventually be exposed. Have you considered the repercussions?” Connor 

cautioned. 

Maya tightened her fists, retorting, “I haven’t lied, Connor. Didn’t you also promise to perform surgery for Grandma Laura? When did I deceive Timothy?”

Connor found himself momentarily speechless.

Did he really need to reveal to Maya that he agreed to perform surgery on Laura because of Mia? 

If he did, Maya would undoubtedly start questioning Mia’s identity. 

Given Mia’s absence from the engagement today, the revelation of her identity had to be postponed. Hence, Connor chose not to proceed with the discussion. 

Dominic furrowed his brow as he glanced at his phone, announcing, “We need to leave.” 

A message from Eva had come in, and the surveillance investigation had provided crucial information. They now knew Mia’s whereabouts. 

Time was of the essence, and further delay was not an option. 

Maya took a step closer and inquired, “Dominic, what exactly is the urgent matter?” 

“It’s related to company affairs,” Dominic replied, fabricating an excuse and refraining from divulging the true reason to Maya. 

The three Lane brothers exited together, leaving Maya standing alone. A chilly and uneasy 

sensation settled in her heart. 

That day was meant to be her engagement day, but why were her brothers departing prematurely? 

Recalling the contract Dominic had handed her earlier, Maya couldn’t shake off the intense 

resentment she felt. 

Having resided in the Lane family for many years, Maya always deemed herself the rightful. 

heiress. The idea of being cast aside was inconceivable to her. 

Maya was resolute–no matter what it took, she would remain a part of the Lane family. 

She was committed to being the Lane family heiress for the rest of her life. 

At that moment, Shelly approached and inquired. “Maya, why did your brothers leave?” 

Maya quickly regained her composure and explained. “My brothers had pressing matters at their 

company, and being busy individuals, they had to leave. 

“Likewise, Tim had work–related issues that required his departure.” 

Shelly found it a bit strange and pressed. “But it’s your engagement day. Why would they depart on such a momentous occasion? Is work more crucial than commemorating your engagement?”
