Mia felt an unprecedented urge to slap Connie's face at that moment.
She waited anxiously, with every passing minute feeling like an eternity.
Where was Caleb? Why hadn't he shown up yet?
With a smug look on her face, Connie remarked, "Mia, your broke bodyguard claimed Mr. Gomez would be here soon. Where is he? It's been quite a while, and he's still nowhere to be seen."
"Mia, are you perhaps worried about being caught in a lie, which is why you're saying he won't come? Just apologize, and I'll let today's incident go. I won't spread any rumors about your penniless bodyguard pretending to be the CEO of Barrett Group," she added, her tone dripping with mockery.
Mia's disdain was palpable as she responded, "You expect me to apologize to you? Perhaps in another lifetime."
Connie immediately retorted, "So, Mia, if you're so confident and unwilling to admit your mistake, then where's this Mr. Gomez your bodyguard promised would arrive? His absence seems to confirm your deception, doesn't it?"
Connie's attendant added, "Perhaps they're concerned about their lie being exposed, so they're deliberately coming up with excuses for Mr. Gomez's absence."
"You never know," Connie remarked. "They might just resort to that tactic later on. Let's just wait and see."
Connie and her attendant's expressions oozed with contempt.
Mia's lips twitched in disdain at their words. It was evident that these individuals had no sense of shame.
Despite their current arrogance, they would soon taste the bitterness of humiliation when reality inevitably caught up with them.
Nonetheless, Mia couldn't shake the nagging question of why Caleb hadn't appeared yet. It wouldn't take him long to come downstairs, so what was causing the delay?
In this crucial moment, his absence could complicate matters.

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?...

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....
