"Hey Monalize, please don't get upset. Aunt Sharon can be a bit critical of people who aren't as well-off, and she tends to prefer those who are wealthy.
"She simply wants Tim to marry into a family of equal status, and at the same time, she doesn't want to feel overshadowed by her future daughter-in-law.
"That's why she made those remarks earlier, to assert her position over you. It's not that she truly questions your identity!" Shelly explained hastily.
Mia's expression hardened. "But I've never faced such treatment before."
"Monalize, you don't need to heed Aunt Sharon. After all, our household belongs to Tim. As long as Tim accepts you, you don't need Aunt Sharon's approval. With your family backing you up, Aunt Sharon won't have any power over you."
Shelly was worried that if Monalize ended her relationship with Timothy, she might lose the privileges she enjoyed.
Upon hearing Shelly's explanation, Mia's eyes gleamed with a hint of mockery. "I didn't expect Mrs. Barrett to treat me this way after just one meeting. It's truly disheartening."
"Monalize, Aunt Sharon's judgment may be clouded. Her family has fallen on hard times, so she's eager to find a wealthy daughter-in-law to salvage her reputation," Shelly clarified.
Mia couldn't help but scoff at the notion. The expectation of finding a wealthy daughter-in-law while also demanding respect seemed unrealistic to her.
Letting out a sigh, Mia turned to Shelly. "Shelly, I had hoped we could be a family. I even planned to give this card to Mrs. Barrett as a gift.
"But I didn't anticipate her strong dislike for me. Without Timothy's parents' approval, I'm starting to question our relationship."
Upon hearing this, Shelly quickly interjected, "Monalize, don't lose confidence so quickly. You have to trust Tim.
"Besides, we're practically family now; there's no need for you to take Aunt Sharon's words to heart. I'll make sure she apologizes to you later."
Mia's demeanor softened slightly at Shelly's words. "We'll see. Anyway, I should be going."
"Monalize, are you still taking me to that private Vior fashion show you mentioned earlier?"

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....
