Chapter 36
Shelly looked a little diffident. “What nonsense are you spouting?”
How did Eva know about that?
Mia didn’t expect to hear about something like that. She pulled out her phone to
show Shelly her invitation. “Take a good look at this-I’m attending the awards
ceremony because my capabilities got me to where I am.
“I’m not like some people who only know how to pull strings and buy their way in
because they don’t have any skills to back themselves up.”
Shelly’s blood boiled. She hadn’t expected Mia to make it to the finals. She looked at
the evening gowns the salesperson held. “Hey, you. Wrap all three of those dresses
up for me.”
The salesperson looked conflicted. Shelly’s expression darkened. “Did you not hear
me? Wrap those dresses up for me. Don’t you know who I am?”
“Yes, Ms. Barrett.”
“Hold it!” Eva stopped the salesperson. “We came first.”
Shelly laughed derisively. “So what? It’s not like you can afford them. Why are you
trying to make yourself seem better than you are?”
“Whoever told you that we can’t afford them? Swipe my card.” Eva pulled out a credit
card and placed it in the salesperson’s hand. “Go on.”
She’d never been on the receiving end of such scorn in her life. No one in Nord City
would dare accuse her of not being able to afford something!
“Wait a minute.” Mia took the credit card from the salesperson and looked at Eva. “I
haven’t even tried those gowns on yet; there’s no need to buy them. Let’s look at
some others.”
Eva had only acted in a fit of rage because she didn’t want to take Shelly’s mockery
lying down. Since Mia had stopped her, she didn’t insist.

Mia linked arms with her and dragged her over to another corner to check out the dresses there. But whenever something caught their attention, Shelly would
immediately say, “Wrap that up for me.”

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...
It reads 7 chapters per day, yet today only 2...
Patiently waiting for her to realize they belong together...
More chapters please & conclusion in sight?...
Where are the chapters. Very slow. Story is taking too long?...
More chapters please...
Please update all the chapters...
I am so done with this never ending saga, with too much drama and never resolving any issues, only continuing to add more unresolved issues....
