    Timothy responded coldly, "If there are this many capable men around her, that means she''s capable."Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    After saying that, he put his wine ss down before walking in Mia''s direction.


    Sharon stomped her foot, feeling frustrated.


    Caleb shed a meaningful smile. "Mrs. Barrett, is it this hard to admit someone else''s capability? You should be proud to have had such a sessful daughter-inw. You shouldn''t think that you can control her because these are her achievements. We should respect each other, not take each other down."


    He just couldn''t get why Sharon disliked Mia.


    Well, Sharon might have had a reason to look down on Mia previously because of her identity as an orphan.


    But Mia was now the daughter of the Lane family. She is now at the top of the socialdder.


    However, Sharon''s attitude toward Mia hadn''t changed.


    Sharon gritted her teeth and remarked, "You know nothing. You haven''t even gotten married yet."


    "Have you ever thought of what would happen if they really remarry each other? What good would you gain from offending her now?" He tried to reason with her.


    "Don''t give me a lecture. I simply think that she''s not fit for my son." She spun around and left angrily.


    Shelly followed her. "Aunt Sharon, leaving so soon already? Are you not going to introduce me to Mrs. Gietti and the others? We should stay here longer so that they can get to know me."


    Sharon sneered. "Are you still dreaming of marrying into a rich family? The fight just now left a bad impression on them, Shelly."


    Shelly gulped. She felt guilty. "What about the promise you made before we came? You should figure out something to book a slot at Aide Castle so that I can host a party here."


    Sharon looked at her in disbelief. She really couldn''t fathom what was going on in Shelly''s mind.


    How could Shelly bring that matter up now?


    "Mia is the real owner of Aide Castle, do you think she''ll let you hold a banquet here? You may not have pride, and you may not feel humiliated, but I do."


    Sharon would never beg Mia. Not over her dead body.


    Sharon left and Shelly wanted to chase after her, but she couldn''t run fast due to her injured ankle.


    Left with no choice, she bit her lip angrily.


    Who would''ve thought that Mia was the real owner of Aide Castle? No one expected her to be this sessful.


    Shelly stared at Mia, who was standing in the middle of the crowd like a proud princess.


    Jealousy coursed through her veins.


    The once meek and obedient Mia had now be the most dazzling person who ever existed.


    While Mia was conversing with her acquaintances, a man kept chiming in to show off his knowledge, making her slightly ufortable.


    "I think we click very well, Ms. Mia.


    Why don''t we exchange contact


    number


    We can hang out alone and talk about the possibility of a coboration when we''re free."


    Mia didn''t want to give him her contact number at all. She swirled her wine ss. "If it''s


    business-rted, you may contact my secretary or meet me personally at my office."


    "We''re friends, aren''t we, Ms. Mia? Can''t you give me your personal contact number?"


    "That''s not something anyone can have," she said.


    "Although you''ve run Aide Castle


    sessfully, there are tips that I can


    share for improvements in some areas. This is how business works. You should expose yourself more to the real world or yourpany won''t be able to grow well under your management. Don''t you think so?"


    Mia''s expression darkened.


    Just as she was about to say something, a man''s voice sounded from behind them.


    "Beggars should expose themselves more to the real world too."
