Chapter 725

As Mia followed Shelly’s gaze, she spotted Luna in an evening gown. Indeed, trouble seemed to follow

Mia wherever she went.

Shelly’s expression turned uneasy. Knowing Luna’s long standing desire to become the young lady of

the Barrett family, she was certain Luna would stir up trouble.

It was strange that Sharon suddenly approached them the last time they were at the café. Shelly later

discovered that Luna had been spreading rumors, leading to a conflict between Sharon and Mia.

Dressed in designer clothes and high heels, Luna approached them. “Shelly, you’re here for this event

too? Why didn’t you tell me? We could have come together.”

Shelly responded directly, “Luna, this fashion show is by invitation only. Only those who have received

an invitation can attend. How did you get

vours?”

After all, Luna’s position within the Barrett family was rather precarious. Given that even Shelly couldn’t

secure an invitation, it seemed unlikely that

Luna could.

Luna smiled faintly and explained, “I’m here with Mrs. Barrett. She wanted to come and unwind a bit.”

Shelly suddenly felt uneasy. “Aunt Sharon is so unfair. She knows I love this brand, yet she’d rather

bring an outsider than me.”

If it weren’t for Monalize, Shelly wouldn’t have been able to attend this

exclusive show today.

As Sharon emerged from the restroom, she overheard Shelly’s comments. Her expression hardened

as she said, “Shelly, that’s quite disrespectful. How can you refer to Luna as an outsider?”

Feeling defiant, Shelly retorted, “Why shouldn’t she be considered one?”

Sharon let out a derisive snort and cast a glance in Mia’s direction.

Addressing Shelly, Sharon commented, “Shelly, it seems you’ve lost your sense of judgment. You’re

swayed by the slightest favor. Is this truly all you’re worth?”

Though Shelly was feeling a bit angry, Mia quickly calmed her down and said with a smile, “Shelly,

don’t let it get to you. Why be upset? Let’s go and enjoy the show.”

Luna interjected, “Ms. Monalize, didn’t you see Mrs. Barrett? Aren’t you going to say hello?”

Glancing over, Mia couldn’t ignore Sharon’s cold and indifferent

expression. Sharon exuded an air of arrogance, accompanied by disdain.

Mia smiled slightly and replied, “We’re not that close, so there’s no need for

that.”

ron was furious after hearing Mia’s words. She couldn’t comprehend Mia’s arrogance. Didn’t Mia

realize that Timothy was her son?

Adding fuel to the fire, Luna remarked, “Ms. Monalize, you and Tim are in a romantic relationship, and

Mrs. Barrett is his mother. Even if there were past disagreements, a simple greeting is still appropriate,

wouldn’t you agree?”

“I’m dating Timothy, not his mother. This is just who I am, that,” Mia retorted.

I can’t change

Mia knew that Luna was intentionally trying to escalate the situation.

Nonetheless, she refused to show any deference to Sharon. She wasn’t going to submit to the Barrett

family!

Sharon couldn’t hold back, saying, “Ms. Monalize, I must commend your, determination. However, do

you truly believe that a relationship can

withstand the test of time without the family’s approval?”

“I never considered a long–term future with Timothy.”

Upon hearing this, Sharon was furious. What was Mia insinuating? How dare she speak ill of Timothy,

especially when there were plenty of wealthy young women eager to marry him!

Noticing Sharon’s frustration, Luna quickly shifted the topic. “Ms.

Monalize, I heard that your daughter is unwell and in the hospital. As a mother, shouldn’t you be with

her instead of attending a fashion show?”
