Chapter 694
Mia approached Shelly with a cheerful demeanor. “Shelly, how do you like the shoes? Have you tried them on yet? Do they fit well?”
Seeing Mia, Shelly immediately set aside her phone and smiled, responding, “I’ve tried them on, and they fit perfectly.”
In truth, Shelly hadn’t bothered trying them on. Since they were a gift, she didn’t want to waste them even if they didn’t fit properly.
Mia could immediately see through Shelly’s lie, but instead of confronting her, she maintained a smile and remarked, “Shelly, I bumped into Ms. Maynard in the restroom. She seemed displeased with me being with Mr. Barrett, insinuating that I’m merely a substitute for his ex–wife.”
“Monalize, don’t let Luna’s words bother you. You’re not a substitute at all. Tim has always been loyal, and he has a particular taste in women. You’re much better than Tim’s ex–wife. You two are simply meant to be together.”
Shelly was overjoyed as she held onto the branded bag and shoes she had received for free. If Monalize ended up with Timothy, wouldn’t that mean she could continue enjoying such perks? After all, Monalize was much more generous than Luna.
Observing Shelly taking the bait, Mia frowned and inquired, “Was there a romantic history between Ms. Maynard and Mr. Barrett?”
“No! It’s always been Luna who had feelings for Tim. However, Tim hasn’t reciprocated Luna’s feelings all these years. If they were meant to be together, they would have been a couple by now,” Shelly asserted.
Mia was somewhat skeptical of Shelly’s claims. She then dropped the bombshell, “I’ve heard rumors that Luna has a son living with the Barretts. Some say he’s Timothy’s illegitimate child.”
Shelly hesitated momentarily, her eyes shifting uneasily as she responded, “That’s not true. When Luna lived with the Barretts, she assumed the identity of Tim’s sister.
“Her son is from some random dude. Monalize, don’t concern yourself with it. When you and Tim are together eventually, the child you have will be the heir of the Barrett family.”
Upon hearing this, Mia’s eyes flashed with coldness. After all, she had already given birth to a pair of twins.
Mia realized that she wouldn’t obtain any useful information from Shelly at the moment. With that in mind, she turned and left the hospital.
Nonetheless, she couldn’t shake the feeling that Shelly’s words didn’t quite add up.
Why would Timothy keep Luna, a woman with no apparent family ties, in the Barrett residence and even raise Luna’s son?
However, such scenarios were not uncommon among affluent families.
Typically, they involved illegitimate children whose fathers were unwilling to acknowledge. their mothers‘ identity but also couldn’t bring themselves to abandon their children.
After settling into the car, Mia stole a glance at Ginger, who was still asleep beside her.
Regardless of the circumstances, Mia was determined not to allow her children to return to the Barrett family and compete with Luna’s son for any inheritance.

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...
