Mia didn't want to listen any further. She turned to Gina and uttered, "I'm heading out. Feel free to continue chatting."
She couldn't bear it any longer. Indeed, her brother's words rang true from the previous night; these class reunions were simply gatherings where everyone engaged in boasting and comparisons, devoid of any real significance.
As Mia exited the restroom and waited for the elevator, she noticed tears streaming down Ramona's face.
Ramona hurriedly intercepted Mia's path, pleading, "Mia, please, let's not dwell on petty matters. We're all adults here. This time, I'll admit it's my fault! I apologize!"
Witnessing Ramona's distressed state, Mia turned to Gina with a puzzled expression. "What's going on?"
Gina responded curtly, "Ramona just received a call from her family, informing her about their impending bankruptcy due to her conflict with Mr. Russ.
"Frankly, I believe she brought it upon herself; some individuals simply lack restraint."
A nearby classmate interjected, seemingly attempting to appease Mia, "Absolutely! We all know Mia's biological parents are affluent, yet someone chose to disregard the truth and spread unfounded gossip. She has only herself to blame!"
Ramona found herself speechless amidst the mockery.
Turning to Jeremy, Ramona noticed his evasive gaze. Eventually, he spoke up, saying, "Ramona, you owe Mia an apology. When you mess up, you've got to face the music."
With a hint of reluctance, Ramona offered her apology. "Mia, I'm sorry."
Appalled, Mia pushed Ramona aside and made her way toward the elevator.
In a desperate attempt, Ramona immediately dropped to her knees, pleading, "Mia, don't leave. Please forgive me this time! My family can't afford to go bankrupt!"
Jolene chimed in urgently, "Mia, Ramona is even kneeling for you. What more do you want? Are you really going to push her to the edge?"
Mia scornfully remarked, "Had I lacked power or influence, I'd have been subjected to bullying and baseless accusations, with no one to stand 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?...

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....
