Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen

Chapter 180
Mia spoke up. “Connor, given your Involvement in this surgery, please Inform me promptly if there’s any update on Grandma
Laura’s condition.”
Indeed, Mia was genuinely concerned about Laura’s wellbeing.
Observing Mia’s compassionate demeanor, Connor couldn’t help but sigh. “Mia, don’t worry. Grandma Laura will be just fine. I
promise.”
Connor would undoubtedly put forth his best effort in performing the surgery, ensuring that Mia could sever all ties with the
Barrett family.
After Mia’s departure. Connor called Dominic and inquired, “Hey Dominic, when did I agree to attend Maya’s engagement
ceremony?”
Clearing his throat, Dominic explained. “Well, didn’t I mention that I won’t be able to make it?”
“Come on, Dominic. If you made a promise, it’s your responsibility to follow through. I never agreed to attend Maya’s
engagement ceremony in the first place.” Connor retorted.
He disapproved of Maya’s manipulative tactics–using Laura as leverage.
If Maya were obedient and compliant, it would be a different story. However, Maya’s actions contradicted the innocent facade she
portrayed.
Indeed, Connor harbored a profound disdain for individuals who exhibited a two–faced character.
Sighing on the other end of the line. Dominic conceded, “Alright, I’ll make a trip to Bern City in a couple of days.

“Given the unfair accusations against Mia, Eva and I have decided to go over personally and assess the situation for our peace
of mind.
“Regarding Maya’s engagement, here’s my plan...” Dominic proceeded to share his thoughts.
Connor pondered for a moment. “I think that could work, but I’m unsure if Maya will agree. It’s still worth a shot.
I
“However, I hope we can keep Mia’s presence under wraps. I’m concerned it might bring harm to her.
“Con, Maya wouldn’t stoop to that level,” Dominic reassured.
Upon hearing this, Connor was at a loss for words.
Despite Dominic’s seemingly aloof exterior, he harbored a deep sense of trust for his family, extending that trust even to Maya,
who had been adopted into their family.
In the end, Connor didn’t press further. As long as Maya married Timothy and remained in Bern City, that would suffice.
Once Mia returned to Nord City in the future, nobody would dare mistreat her.
Upon the birth of Mia’s child, they would seamlessly become a cherished member of the Lane family.

Mia would also be able to enjoy a sense of autonomy and protection in Nord City, with no external interference.
Considering these factors, attending Maya’s engagement ceremony seemed like a sensible choice for Connor.
After all, it could be seen as his final farewell to Maya.
Returning home to rest, Mia found herself greeted by an intriguing revelation the next day–Maya’s impending engagement had
seized the media’s attention, dominating the entertainment headlines.
Mia stumbled upon photos of Maya trying on her wedding dress, the very same dress she had glimpsed at Maya’s villa.
With the engagement date now revealed, Mia remained unfazed, having anticipated this development.
She attended her college classes as usual and then went to the studio for work.
Having repeated a grade, she found herself less acquainted with her current classmates and had no
inclination to form close bonds with them.
Upon entering the studio, Mia observed that Wilhelmina’s workspace had been vacated, devoid of any
personal items.
Reflecting on Wilhelmina’s downfall, Mia couldn’t help but feel a pang of regret.

After all, Wilhelmina was once a proficient designer, showcasing her talent by securing second place in the esteemed Fleur
International Design competition.
Unfortunately, she had taken a wrong turn in her career, leading to a downward spiral.
Mia’s thoughts then drifted to her marriage with Timothy, drawing eerie parallels to Wilhelmina’s predicament.
Suddenly, her phone buzzed.
Upon seeing the caller’s number, a subtle squint emerged in Mia’s eyes. She hadn’t spoken to Mary in quite some time.
The unexpected call from her already hinted at troubling news.
