Chapter 921
Mia''s expression lit up with anticipation. With Caleb''s imminent arrival,
she anticipated that drama was about to unfold.
Earlier, when Caleb had called, he sounded gleeful and eager to
witness the events unfold. However, the situation seemed to have
taken an unexpected turn.
Mia couldn''t help but wonder how Caleb would react once he found
himself in the spotlight.
A twinge of excitement stirred within her as she wondered what would
happenter.
Observing Mia''s silence, Connie swiftly interjected, "Mia, why are you
so quiet? Didn''t you im to know Caleb before? You even boasted
about it at the hospital. Now that Caleb himself is here, why the sudden
silence?"
Mia wasn''t silent out of guilt, but rather because she was too exhausted
to bother with a response.
Observing the audacious behavior of the Bowens, Mia casually
retorted, "Are you certain this man is Caleb?"
"Absolutely; this gentleman right here is none other than Mr. Gomez,"
Lewis affirmed confidently.
The young man beside him cleared his throat and addressed Mia,
"Given that we''re in Nord City, not Bern City, it''s not surprising that I''m
not recognized here. Ms. Lane, I would caution you against being
deceived by outsiders."This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
Mia couldn''t believe she was being used of being gullible.
She nced at the young man and remarked, "It''s certainly an odd
situation. I''ve been to Bern City and have met Mr. Caleb before.
However, you bear no resemnce to him whatsoever. So, who''s
impersonating whom here?"
After her statement, Mia noticed a subtle shift in the man’s expression
—a slight flicker of guilt that she astutely picked up on.
It confirmed her suspicion—this man was indeed a fraudulent impostor.
Connie immediately interrupted, "Mia, what are you trying to say? After
everything that''s happened, do you still believe the man you identified
last time is the real Caleb? The evidence is right in front of you, and yet
you''re still not convinced!"
Annoyed, Mia crossed her arms defensively. "Once Caleb and Timothy
arrive, the truth wille out. We''ll finally know who''s the impostor.”
The young man''s expression shifted subtly. Could it be that the real
Caleb was on his way? If so, his facade would soon be exposed.
With an air of confidence, Connie added, "Mia, let''s settle this with a
showdownter. We''ll find out who''s telling the truth and who''s lying
once and for all."
"Mia, let''s face it. The Lane family wields significant influence as well.
Out of generosity, we extended an invitation for you to attend our
family''s signing ceremony today.
"But instead of showing gratitude, youe here and stir up trouble,
using my distinguished guest of being an impostor.
"If word of this gets out, how will it reflect on the Lane family in the
public eye?" Lewis retorted with a smug expression.
Today, he finally had the chance to assert himself in front of the Lane
family.
“I couldn''t care less about how others perceive the Lane family. I''m not
here today to offer congrattions on your family''s contract signing; I''m
just here to enjoy the spectacle.
"Considering how certain individuals have been misled and
manipted, today''s event is bound to be quite the show."
As Mia uttered those words, she couldn''t help but nce at the
influential media figures beside her. It seemed the Bowen family had
drawn quite a crowd to sway public opinion in their favor.
Mia turned directly to the media representatives and addressed them,
“I''m well aware that the Bowen family has been showering you with
numerous perkstely, all while boasting about their supposed
coboration with the Barrett family.
"But let me assure you, it''s all smoke and mirrors. Just wait until the
CEO of Barrett Group and the real Mr. Gomez arrive. Then you''ll learn
the truth."
One of the reporters interjected, "Ms. Lane, it''s true that there have
been widespread rumors about a partnership between the Bowen and
Barrett families.
"However, the idea that the president of the Barrett Group would act as
your bodyguard is something we find difficult to believe."
