Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen novel Chapter 551

Observing Jeremy's outstretched hand holding the business card, Mia couldn't help but glance at Timothy. "Isn't it considered polite to accept a business card when it's offered?" she remarked.

Timothy arched his eyebrows mockingly. "Does he even deserve to hand me his business card?"

Jeremy's demeanor shifted abruptly. "What do you mean by that?"

As a wealthy heir, Jeremy had never encountered such blatant disregard before.

Nonetheless, a sense of unease crept over him, especially considering the extravagant Rolls-Royce parked nearby—an opulence reserved for the elite.

"Well, the chairman of your company has personally handed me his business card. He requested investment in an artificial intelligence project that seemed to be short on funds." Timothy's tone remained indifferent as he stood in the rain.

Yet his presence commanded attention, casting a shadow over those around him. Despite his passive stance, he exuded an aura of authority, seemingly towering above everyone else.

Jeremy's expression grew uneasy upon hearing Timothy's words.

He too was aware of the artificial intelligence project. Indeed, the chairman of Truist Financial was currently in discussions with the Barrett Group, hoping to secure investment from the CEO.

Could it be that the man before him was the president of the Barrett Group?

Jeremy awkwardly retracted his hand, a subtle reluctance flickering in his eyes.

If Timothy was truly the president of the Barrett Group, Jeremy understood that provoking him was certainly not a risk he could afford to take.

Yet, despite the implications, Jeremy remained somewhat skeptical of Timothy's identity.

Considering Mia's social status, how could she possibly have connections with someone of Timothy's caliber?

Even Jeremy himself lacked the credentials to engage with someone of that stature. Typically, only the company chairman would be entitled to such interactions.

Jeremy couldn't help but suspect that Timothy might be a high-ranking executive from the Barrett Group.

Observing Jeremy's awkwardness, Mia stole a glance at Timothy before her. Was he there to flaunt his wealth?

Mia smirked and nodded, "Go on. Is there anything else?"

Ramona's confidence grew as she continued, "There's plenty more, sir. You might not be aware that Mia was once a top student, but she abruptly dropped out from college for an older, wealthy man.

"Now, I reckon she can't even bear children. After the old man got tired of her, he divorced her and tossed her out like trash!"

Jolene eagerly joined in, "Exactly! Mia may appear innocent and kind, but her background is quite complicated.

"She dropped out of college to chase after an older man for his money. She's nothing but a gold digger!"

With each word, Timothy's expression grew darker. Did Mia truly abandon her education for the sake of a rich older man?

Suppressing her laughter, Mia nodded. "Yes, you're correct. I did drop out of school for an older, wealthy man.

"Three years into the marriage, I ended up being swept out the door, just another victim of my foolish romantic notions."
