Observing Dahlia and Dixie’s behavior, realized that they hadn’t changed one bit.
Kaleb responded with a stem expression, “These fruits are meant for Mrs. Barrett.”
“But she’s already divorced from Timothy! Why do you still address her as ‘Mrs. Barrett‘?
“We’re already being generous by not requesting her to leave. And yet, she still has the audacity to
help
herself to the fruits?”
*That’s right. These imported fruits are quite expensive. I highly doubt certain individuals could afford
such luxuries now after leaving the Barrett family.”
Mia chose not to confront Dahlia and Dixie. Instead, she asked Kaleb, “Could you please bring them
another te of fruits?”
Kaleb promptly returned with a fresh te of fruits, cing it in front of Dahlia and Dixle with a thud.
With grace, he then served Mia a ss of freshly squeezed juice.
“Thank you.” Mia acknowledged, epting the drink and sipping it. She observed as Dahlia and Dixie
took selfies with their juice, meticulously adjusting their angles for the perfect shot.
Feeling somewhat amused, Mia remarked, “If you keep squeezing in like that, you might just burst the
imnts in your fake breasts.”
Dixie immediately became defensive, asserting, “What do you mean by fake breasts? Mine are the
real. deal passed down through gics!”
Dahlia stood confidently, stating, “Absolutely! My daughter’s figure is naturally stunning. Some people
can only envy and resent her because of their meager physique.”
“Yeah, gically inherited imnts!”
It seemed that Dahlia’s bust size changed every year, and this time, Dixie’s had too. Despite this,
Dahlia and Dixie appeared unwilling to concede.
Turning to Mia, Dixie remarked, “Your outfit looks like it’s from a high–end brand’stest collection.
Where did you find such a convincing knockoff?”
“I got it from the mall.”

“Haha, how did you manage to find such a convincing knockoff in a regr mall? Did you stumble upon
it. in the flea market?”
Mia smiled knowingly. “Why don’t you take a quess?”
At that moment, the faint sound of a vehicle could be heard from outside the courtyard.
Dahlia and Disle exchanged a nce. “Dixle, could that be Tim returning?”
“I think so too, especially since Mrs. Barrett Senior has been discharged from the hospital. Tim is likely
coming by for a visit, Mom, how do you like my makeup today? Do you think it’s striking enough?”
“It looks absolutely stunning! You’ll definitely captivate Tim today. Your future in high society is so close!
Some people can only envy you.”
N?velDrama.Org owns this.
Dahlia’s words stunned Mia, but she maintained herposure and continued to sip her juice.
In the distance, Dixie’s coquettish volce could be heard, “Oh, Tim I’ve missed you so much–Ouch!”
Just then, the courtyard echoed with Dixie’s anguished cries.
ncing over, Mia caught sight of Dixie sprawled on the grass, her legs iling awkwardly and
pathetically.
A subtle smirk yed on Mia’s lips as she observed Timothy walk in without acknowledging them.
“Can’t you be a bit more considerate toward Dixie?”
“Yeah, Dixie is your cousin, for goodness‘ sake! Why didn’t you catch her just now? Look at her
condition!
Dahlia scolded, helping Dixie inside as she limped, her expression filled with disapproval.
Looking at Dahlia and Dixie, Timothy furrowed his brow. “Who are you two, anyway?”
In response to Timothy’s question, Mia burst intoughter. Could Timothy not recognize them?
Dahlia nervously interjected, “I’m your distant aunt, and Dixie is my daughter–your cousin!”
Timothy’s expression remained stoic. “I don’t have distant rtives, let alone distant cousins,” he
insisted.
“Tim, you’re being quite harsh now, pretending not to know us.”
Growing increasingly impatient, Timothy instructed Kaleb, “Escort them out.”
Kaleb, who had long grown tired of Dahlia and Dixie, promptly intervened, stating, “Please follow me.
