Mia gave a meaningful smile. "Why the overreaction, Ms. Maynard? Didn't you say you don't care about the brand? It's just a dress."
Luna was exasperated. She did say that, but she borrowed the dress from someone else. Should the dress become ruined, she wouldn't have the means to compensate for it.
"You ruined the dress, so you should compensate for it," she barked, couldn't care less about her image anymore.
"But you splashed water at me on purpose." Mia spun and left, not wanting to waste time with Luna.
Luna thought that she could play tricks now that they were in Bern City. However, if the other party didn't uphold moral values, moral values couldn't guilt trip Mia either.
Mia headed outside. The crowd had dispersed.
Excitement carried Shelly to her. "Ms. Monalize, I managed to buy the latest outfit and bag!"
"That bag doesn't suit you. It's for elderly rich women."
"You don't get it. I'm going to be a purchasing agent. I'm going to sell it and rake money from it." Realizing that she had put her foot in her mouth, she added, "We can split the profit in half."
"No, keep it. This is a gift for you."
Shelly interlocked her arms with Mia's. "That's so nice of you, Ms. Monalize! Timothy will be so lucky if he becomes your husband!"
There was an awkward shift on Mia's face as she withdrew her arm. "As long as you're happy. This is not a huge sum of money to me."
"Sorry, but as a neat freak, I think neither makes any difference; they're equally dirty."
"Nonsense! Anyway, everyone heard it. You admitted that you've ruined my dress. Pay for it. I don't need an apology," Luna boldly demanded.
Pride wasn't the problem right now. She would be doomed if Mia didn't pay her.
Shelly mocked, "You're blinded by money, Luna Maynard. No one here would demand compensation because of such a trivial matter. How embarrassing."
Luna chewed her lips. "Rich people like you wouldn't, but this is important to people like me."
"If the dress is over your budget, you shouldn't have worn it. Look at you. Now that there's trouble, you can't pay for it. What's the use of being materialistic and egoistic when you can't even handle the consequences?"

The readers' comments on the novel: Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen
Enjoyed reading this but I agree that the last chapter seemed rushed. Maybe if the author had done a few more chapters to let us know if they remarried or not - could there be a second book in the running. Anyway we'll done....
Who's Claude in chapters 276/277? Have I missed a chapter or something?...
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...
