Chapter 499
Mia burst into laughter. Maya’s words didn’t bother her in the slightest.
Mia headed to the waiting room to make sure the decorations were in place.
Maya was displeased that she was being ignored. She looked at Shelly next to
her. “Shelly, don’t you
think I have a point?”
There was something awkward about Shelly's expression. She let out a wry
cough. “Ms. Lane, about Mia, there's a secret I have to tell you.”
“What is it?”
Shelly hesitated momentarily. “Can you unfreeze my credit card? I need money
lately.”
Maya wasn't happy to hear that. “Shelly, you're quite the spendthrift. I think you
should learn to save money or at least how to earn money. You can’t keep asking
for money from your family when you're
already an adult, can you?”
Maya was suppressing her emotions. If it was not for Shelly’s status, Maya
wouldn't have cared about her, let alone give her a credit card to spend freely.
It was all in her plan to be one of the Barretts successfully.
However, there was nothing Shelly could do to help. The only thing she was best
at was splurging money.
Now that Maya's credit card spending limit had been reduced by the Lanes, she
had to tighten her belt.
Not getting the answer she expected, Shelly huffed, “Ms. Lane, don’t be so
stingy. You're my future sister-
in-law.”
“And that is exactly why I'm doing this. It's for your own good. No one borrows
money from someone distantly related, do they?” Maya figured that Shelly
needed a piece of advice so that she could grow up.
Shelly was slightly angry to hear that. “What do you mean by that?”
“Shelly, I'm saying this because I see you as family. Oh, didn’t you say that you
have a secret about Mia?
What is it?”
Shelly paused. “Oh, I forgot.”
Why would she let the cat out of the bag when Maya froze her credit card and
said such harsh words?

Maya wanted to ask further, but Blake called her, “Ms. Lane, we've tracked down
Dana, but she ran away from the luxury store. I think she’s at college.”
Maya hung up the call in a good mood and looked at Shelly. “The ceremony is
starting soon. My brothers will be attending. I have to go. Make yourself at home.
Remember to stay out of trouble.”
She then left as soon as she said that, fearing that Shelly would demand a hefty
sum of money from her.

A furious Shelly snorted, thinking, “I
was going to tell her that Mia bought
the same dress as well, but I guess
there's no need for that. Having the
same dress isn't anything to be afraid

than the Lanes in the future.”
As an afterthought, Shelly figured that her reasoning made some sense. She
turned to look for Mia. “Hey.
I have something to tell you. It's a secret about Maya.

“Show me some respect, Mia
Bowen.” Shelly blocked off the
doorway with an awkward
expression. “I've finally seen Maya's
true colors. I don't think she should
become my sister-in-law. You're
much better than her. Plus, you've
found your rich family. That makes
you on the same level as us.” Visit
