Mia approached Timothy with the box and handed it to him directly, urging, “Please prioritize saving the
patient. However, considering Mrs. Barrett Senior’s current condition, I’m afraid a single stalk of reishi
mushroom won’t be enough.”
Reishi mushrooms were raremodities, typically traded only in ck market auctions. like those in
Xanier Ind. They were scarcely avable on the open market.
Timothy’s expression grew serious. “Regardless, let’s give it a shot first.”
With that, the reishi mushrooms were promptly taken away by the doctor.
Mia couldn’t help but observe thedy, whose perfume was rather strong, staring at her in
astonishment. As Mia turned her head, her red lips curved subtly.
Startled by Mia’s smile, Shelly felt a shiver creep down her spine. She promptly stood up and hid
behind Timothy, stammering, “T–Tim, who is she?”
Why did this woman resemble Mia so closely? There wasn’t even a hint of stic surgery!
Upon hearing the woman address Timothy as “Tim,” Mia swiftly deduced her identity as his cousin
presumably Shelly, the second heiress of the Barrett family.
However, when Shelly spotted Mia, her reaction resembled that of a mouse encountering at cat, her
eyes betraying a flicker of guilt.
Could it be that she was also involved in the troubles Mia faced within the Barrett family
before?
Contemting this possibility, Mia’s gaze darkened, but the smirk on her lips only grew
wider.
Taking the initiative, Mia addressed Shelly, stating, “Hello, myst name is Langford. You may call me
Monalize.”
Shelly swallowed nervously. “Yourst name is Langford?”
Fortunately, it wasn’t Lane!
Shelly couldn’t help but sigh in relief. Nheless, the uncanny resemnce of Monalize’s face left her
unsettled, almost as though she were face to face with Mia.
At that moment, the doctor approached Timothy and informed him, “We need your presence here to
address the issue concerning the reishi mushrooms. There are important
decisions that require your input.”
Without hesitation, Timothy followed the doctor promptly.
Meanwhile, Mia stood still, observing the blinking lights emanating from the emergency
гоот
From Timothy’s tense expression, it was evident that he was deeply worried about Laura, who was
receiving treatment inside.
An awkward tension lingered in the corridor.
Shelly couldn’t help but secretly observe Mia, sensing that something was amiss.
She began to wonder why Timothy had traveled to Xanier Ind to purchase reishi mushrooms, only to
return with a woman who bore an uncanny resemnce to Mia.
However, Shelly’s eyes widened in surprise when she noticed the handbag Mia was holding “Is that the
limited edition rare leather bag from Vior’s anniversary collection? And in the smallest size, too! That
size is notoriously difficult to find!”
Mia replied nonchntly, “Oh, is it? I actually have it in another color, but I haven’t used it much
because it doesn’t suit my taste.”
Shelly’s face immediately brightened with surprise. “If you’re not using it, could you consider selling it to
me? We can negotiate the price!”
In Bern City, this handbag was highly sought after by everyone.
After being embarrassed by those women for missing outst time, Shelly was determined to get the
bag this time and teach them a lesson!

Seeing Shelly take the bait, Mia nodded graciously and said, “Of course. But since you’re Mr. Barrett’s
cousin, it seems a bit formal to discuss payment. Let’s consider it a gift from me to you.”
“Really?”
Shelly was ted. She hadn’t anticipated Mia’s generosity in simply giving her the bag. After all, it was
a rare and expensive item.
As they exchanged WhatsApp contacts, Shelly tentatively asked, “Monalize, did you meet Tim on
Xanier Ind?”
“Yes, he reached out to me to purchase some reishi mushrooms.”
Mia’s gaze drifted toward the emergency room. “Anyway, how did Mrs. Barrett Senior end
