Mia broached the topic on purpose.
After all, given that Timothy brought up Shelly and was aware of Mia's extensive purchases for her, he likely also learned from Shelly about the incident with Sharon.
Having accepted numerous gifts from Mia, it seemed probable that Shelly exaggerated the situation and complained to Timothy about it.
On the call, Timothy remained quiet for a moment. "It appears she may have mistaken you for my ex-wife."
"Wow, is Mrs. Barrett's relationship with your ex-wife really that bad? Having a mother-in-law like that must make being your wife pretty tough."
Timothy couldn't help but frown in response; it felt like Mia was taunting him.
Standing in the hospital corridor, Timothy gazed at the dark sky outside. His voice carried a heavy tone as he responded, "You don't need to take my mother's words to heart."
"Mr. Barrett, do I appear like someone who would be affected by irrelevant remarks? Typically, if there's a conflict, I react immediately.
"Mr. Barrett, I'd like to remind you that I'm different from your ex-wife. You see, I do have a fiery temper. I can handle a lot, but I refuse to accept defeat."
Mia's words seemed to convey an underlying message, expressing a deep-seated dissatisfaction and possibly venting on behalf of her past self from four years ago.
After Mia finished speaking, Timothy chuckled softly on the other end of the phone. "Okay, I get it. How about we have dinner together tomorrow night?"
Timothy had never imagined that the old Mia would ever be willing to take a loss!
Upon ending the call, Mia couldn't shake off the feeling that Timothy's last chuckle had been a bit peculiar. Did he perceive her words as a joke?
The next morning, Mia stayed home with Ginger. She cautioned Ginger not to disclose anything while pretending to be unwell later that night.
Shortly after, Mia received a call from Shelly. "Monalize, why don't we head out this afternoon? Since it's your first time in Bern City, you might not be familiar with the area."

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....
