Gina let out a sigh. “Mia, seeing Dahlia and Dixie just now, I can only imagine the challenges you’ve
faced living with the Barrett family these past three y
years.
*Despite their prestigious status, it might have been wiser not to marry into their family. When you
attend the Barrett family’s banquet this time, you need to assert yourself.”
Mia couldn’t help but chuckle. She hadn’t anticipated Sharon and Shelly keeping quiet about
everything.
but she wasn’t bothered either.
“By the way, Mia, since thest college event, Maya was taken away, wasn’t she? What’s her situation
now? And how are your brothers dealing with it?”
“Maya’s deliberate knife attack resulted in Timothy’s injury, which led to the Barretts pressing charges.
Considering the circumstances in Bern City, my brothers have decided to keep Maya here and prohibit
her from returning to Nord City.”
“That’s probably for the best. It’s wise to prevent Maya, that little troublemaker, from returning to the
Lane family and causing more trouble for you in the future,” Gina said in agreement.
Given the care and support her brothers had shown her, Mia realized that Maya was unlikely to pose
any
threat to her.
Due to her amnesia, Mia couldn’t recall how Maya had deceived her and manipted her brothers.
leading to their separation for many years.
However, Mia wasn’t troubled by her inability to remember the past; she had finally found her family
now.
Inside the store, Mia couldn’t help but try on the clothes Eva had selected for her. She also had Irinna
assist Gina in choosing some outfits to try on.
Excitedly, Gina pulled Mia aside. “Indeed, luxury clothing is on another level! The quality of the material
and the way they fit is simply unmatched.”
At the checkout counter, Mia instructed Irinna to pack all the clothes Gina had tried on.
Gina was taken aback. “Mia, what’s going on? You haven’t even tried these on yet!”
“They’re for you,” Mia replied.
Passing the shopping bag to Gina, she added, “During my years as an orphan, you became my family.
I appreciate your consistent presence in my life these past three years.
“Despite my hesitance to disclose everything, your steadfast care and support have never wavered.
You are family to me as well.”
Tears welled up in Gina’s eyes as she epted the designer bag. “Are you trying to bribe me? Well,
now that I’ve got connections with someone influential, you’d better remember to invite me to all the
fancy
gatherings.”
Mia hugged Gina tightly. “I promise I will.”
Once Mia went to Nord City, she knew she wouldn’t have many opportunities to return to Bern City in
the
future.
Shortly after. Mia and Gina decided to dine out, choosing a high–end restaurant that typically required a
membership card for entry.
They happily walked in with their newly acquired purchases.
Linking arms with Mia, Gina eximed, “Mia, is this the legendary restaurant where only the rich and
famous dine? Inever imagined I’d have the chance to eat here one day.”
“I’ve

never been here either. Today’s my first time. Dominic mentioned he’s already reserved a private
lounge, so it seems we won’t need a membership card.”
“Mia, I can’t help but envy you for having such an amazing brother. And you have six of them! Is that
even fair?” Gina remarked wistfully.
As Mia and Gina entered the elevator, Mia’s smile momentarily faded as she noticed a strikingly
attractive couple entering through the main entrance.
Gina eximed in surprise, “Isn’t that man Timothy?”
However, Mia’s attention was not on Timothy; instead, it was captured by the woman beside him. It was
her!
