"Mia, you''re going to regret thister. We won''t let you and this gigolo off the hook by then. You guys


    will be doomed once the Barrett Group finds out that someone is impersonating their CEO."


    Mia felt like getting back at Connie, but she was at a loss for words. She had made it very clear that her


    bodyguard was actually the CEO of Barrett Group, yet Connie''s denial caught her off guard. Connie


    even used her of getting someone to impersonate Timothy.


    She turned toward Timothy. "What do you have to say now?"


    Now that she had literally spelled out everything for them, it was his turn to defend himself. He was the


    CEO of Barrett Group, after all.


    In fact, Mia was intrigued to find out how he''d stand up for himself. Timothy furrowed his brows. He also


    didn''t anticipate the Bowens" imprudence. He nced at Connie and asked, “The contract is to be


    signed on the day after tomorrow, right?"


    Connie replied smugly, “That''s right. It will be the end of both of you then."

    Timothy snapped, "Don''t expect too much. The deal isn''t going to happen.”


    "What makes you think you have the right to decide that? You''re just ame bodyguard. Do you really


    think you''re the CEO of Barrett Group?" “I am indeed the CEO of Barrett Group," Timothy rebuked.


    "Still keeping up with the act? Guess what, I will definitely let the CEO know that you impersonated him


    when we sign the deal. The Barretts definitely wouldn''t spare you. Don''t you dare think you can act


    recklessly just because Mia has your back. Even the Lanes have to bow down before us by then, let


    alone a poor bodyguard like you.” "Well, I''m informing you that the deal has been canceled,” Timothy


    said. "Who said so? How shameless of you to spread rumors!" Lewis barked, emerging from the


    elevator.


    Connie piped up, "Lewis, you came just in time. This poor bodyguard right here is impersonating the


    CEO of Barrett Group, and he even has the gall to say that he''ll cancel our deal. Just how ridiculous is


    that?" Selena also chimed in, "Exactly! I couldn''t find any pictures of the CEO earlier despite searching


    online. So, they took this opportunity to impersonate him. They thought we''d be easily fooled!"


    Lewis erupted intoughter. "Impersonating the CEO of Barrett Group?" He turned to Mia and


    continued, “Do you fancy this gigolo who is full of lies? It seems like you have poor taste, indeed.


    However, I might consider letting the Lanes off the hook if you agree to our engagement.”


    Mia was overwhelmed by his insolence. Furrowing her brows, she answered frankly, "I wouldn''t marry


    you even if you''re the only man left on Earth. Just give up. You''re too ugly.”


    Lewis was infuriated. He raised his hand to strike her, but Timothy stopped him immediately.


    "She''s mine. How dare you!" He glowered at Lewis.


    "What makes you think you have the right topete with me for her? You''re just a nobody. Haven''t


    you heard of the consequences of defying me in Nord City?"
