Chapter 43
Mia lowered her eyes to conceal her true emotions at Shelly’s words. She’d already
signed the divorce papers; who Timothy wanted to cheer on and be with was none
of her business.
Later, no matter what else Shelly said, Mia ignored her. Soon, Maya walked on stage
to announce the commencement of the ceremony. “As we all know, there have been
some changes to the rules for this year’s competition.
“There will only be ten winners, which means one of the 11 finalists will leave with
nothing. For the sake of fairness, the designers‘ names will be concealed when the
judging is conducted. The announcement of the winners will also be different–we’ll
start from the tenth place.”
Mia looked at the panel of judges. Timothy was among them. Obviously, he was one
of the judges.
If she were being completely honest, she was quite nervous. At this moment, she
received a WhatsApp message from Liam. “Don’t worry. You’ll be fine.”
”
Half an hour later, the judging ended. On stage, Maya announced the results. “In
tenth place, we have … In ninth place…”
Soon, they were down to the top three. Mia frowned. There were four finalists left.
The one who wasn’t among the top three would be the one eliminated.
Shelly turned to glance at her. “Don’t tell me you’re dreaming about being in the top
three, Mia. The competition’s tough this year, and that Zoe is also one of the
competitors. You shouldn’t even think about placing with your lousy skills.”
Mia faltered. She was Zoe, though. Should she thank Shelly for her compliment?
Maya soon announced the third and second place. Mia wasn’t among them. She
noticed Timothy glancing at her, but he’d already turned away when she turned to
look.
Mia looked down and waited for Maya to announce the winner. Maya saw Timothy and Mia’s interaction. Her eyes darkened slightly at the sight before she smiled and
1/2
said, “And in first place is Wilhelmina Jones.”
+15 BONUS
Two seats away from Mia, a young lady shot to her feet and ran on stage excitedly to accept her award. Mia sat in her seat, clenching her fists awkwardly. For a split second, she’d thought she was in first place.

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....
