Mia flashed a slightly awkward yet polite smile. "Compared to your accomplishments, Jeremy, mine seem insignificant."
Ramona couldn't resist interjecting, "Even if Mia snagged the first prize, what's the big deal? I heard she ditched college for some guy, so now she probably only has a high school diploma.
"What reputable company would hire someone with just a high school education?"
Jolene chimed in, "Exactly. These days, having a solid education is crucial for securing job opportunities."
Ramona adopted a seemingly caring tone as she spoke, "Mia, I genuinely feel sorry for you. You had such good grades back then, even securing a spot in a top-tier university.
"But it's such a shame that you dropped out for a guy. If only you had a degree from a prestigious university now, along with this award, finding a good job would be a breeze."
"Who said Mia only has a high school diploma?"
Just then, Gina barged through the door and confronted Ramona directly.
"Mia has been diligently preparing for her resit examinations on campus. Once she passes her exams and gets her thesis approved, she'll successfully obtain her graduation certificate."
"That's impossible! Mia dropped out years ago. How can she suddenly decide to return to university like this?"
"Just because you can't achieve something doesn't mean others can't. As I mentioned, Mia is back in college, preparing for her exams.
"Soon, she'll graduate from Halvard University, a top-tier institution, unlike someone who holds only an associate degree and still has the audacity to belittle others."
Ramona instantly became defensive. "Gina, who are you referring to as an associate degree holder? I've been studying abroad for quite some time now. It's at a prestigious university in Nord City, a place most people can only dream of."
Jolene joined in with a boast, "Exactly! Ramona is currently studying abroad as an international student. Mia can't even compare to that."
Gina smirked. "That must have been quite expensive, huh?"
Ramona's demeanor tensed. "My family is well-off. Are you feeling envious or something?"

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....
