Luna’s gaze dropped to the ground, and her voice grew weak. “If they get together again, Mrs. Barrett
Senior would be happy. It’ll be good news for your family too.”
“What are you talking about, Luna? That’s not how it’ll work. If they get together again, there won’t be a
ce for us in the family. Mia is Ms. Lane right now. No one would dare to mess with her. Besides,
she’s
pregnant with Timothy’s child.”
“What?” Luna’s face fell.
Shelly hushed her voice deliberately. “I’m the only person in the family that knows this. Mia’s doing a
good job keeping everyone in the dark.”
“There’s no reason for her to keep everyone in the dark, though.”
“Previously, I thought that she would use the child to threaten him. Then, I don’t think he’s the father.
Now, I don’t know whether it is his child anymore. Either way, if they get together again, I’ll be dead
meat.”
Luna’s eyes darted to the middle of the party venue, where the people were dressed in branded clothes
and enjoying their time with a wine ss in each hand.
Admiration tinged her eyes, finally knowing how it felt to be at a party hosted for the rich.
She muttered, “Is there really no way to stop them from getting together again?”
Soon, Kaleb came up to them. “Ms. Maynard, Mr. Barrett asked you not to show up at the party. If you
disobey his rule, you’ll have to leave Barrett residence for the time being.”
She gulped down the bitterness at the tip of her tongue. Nevertheless, she decided to ask, “Is Mrs.
Barrett Senior free right now? I’d like to meet her.”
“She’s preparing to show up at the party. She’s not free at the moment.”
Left with no choice, Luna looked at Shelly. “Enjoy the party. You can tell me storiester.”
“O–Okay.” Shelly was bbergasted.
Once Luna entered the house, Shelly questioned Kaleb, “What’s going on between Luna and Timothy?
Why does she want to meet Grandma? I don’t remember her having anything to do with us, though.”
“I don’t know either,” he answered politely.
She gave up trying to pry for information and strode toward the center point of the party.
Not only must she stop Mia from standing out at the party, but she also had to leave a pleasant
impression on the Lane brothers.
On the other hand, Luna returned to the waiting room on the second floor. It wasn’t where the Barretts
stayed. It was merely a waiting room for the guests.
At that moment, a maid entered and spoke ominously. “Would you like revenge against Mia?”
Luna looked back, rmed. “Who are you?”
The woman lifted her head, revealing her cold expression. “The name’s Dana McQueen.”
Back at the party, Mia suddenly felt cold and sneezed.
Connor quickly came over. “What’s wrong? Feeling cold?”
“Nothing. It’s not that cold outside.” She brushed her arms, wondering why she suddenly sneezed.
Perhaps her body was still getting used to the wind.
“You mustn’t catch a cold now.” He draped his coat over her shoulders out of concern. “Tell me if you
feel unwell.”
She nodded obediently before raising her head just in time to see Laura show up. Laura’s appearance
drew all the attention.
Timothy stood next to her, handsome and tall. Standing there alone was enough to attract attention
from
others.

Mia couldn’t deny the fact that the bastard indeed looked dashing.
