Chapter 592
“I'm glad to hear that. Go ahead.” Laura wore a relieved smile at the fact that
Timothy had finally wised
1. up.
Holding the box of jewelry, he informed, “Grandma, Luna's here.”
“What for?” Her expression dulled upon hearing the information.
“She heard that you finished your surgery and wanted to see you.”
“I don't need that. I'm not dead yet.” She rose from her seat.
Her reaction was within his expectations. He walked toward Kaleb and told him,
“Help me switch the jewelry. Tell Luna to not show up at the party at the moment.”
Kaled took the box of jewelry. “Yes, sir.”
Intending to switch the jewelry, Kaleb headed to where the presents were placed.
Coincidentally, he ran
into Shelly, who was leading Luna into the house.
He said, “Ms. Maynard, Mr. Barrett told me to inform you not to show up at the
party at the moment.”
A grimace distorted Luna's lips. “Why? Is it because Mrs. Barrett Senior doesn’t
want to see me?”
Kaled left without offering an answer as he had done what he was told to do.
Shelly hurriedly comforted her, “Don't take it to heart, Luna. Grandma is always
like this. If she really doesn't like you, she would have driven you out of the
house.”
Luna managed a smile. “I prepared a gift for her, though.”
“She'll know that. Oh, these are the accessories Timothy bought for you. Did you
know about it?”
The box left by Kaled appeared familiar to Shelly. Wasn't that the latest limited
edition collection from
Vior?
She snitched to him on purpose and he really did purchase it!
Who else would it be for if it wasn't Luna?
Luna's eyes lit up as she stared at the box. She reached out to open it.
Meanwhile, Mia and her brothers made their way to the party in the yard. She
headed to the food section
herself.
Pregnant women shouldn't be starving, so she had to eat.
Coincidentally, Dahlia and Dixie were there as well.
It was a classic enemies' encounter, but a rather awkward one at that.
Dahlia and Dixie's visage distorted into a mask of rage before they made
themselves scarce in the end, fearing the thought of Mia settling the score with
them.
Mia simply shrugged at the hilarious event because she didn't intend to seek
revenge anyway.
“Happy with the scene you're causing at the party, Mia Bowen?”
The perfume pervading the air gave Mia a hint of who the incoming person was.
Mia glanced over her shoulder at
Shelly before making a snide remark,"Jealousy is written all over your face. But that wouldn't give you six
handsome brothers.”
Shelly gritted her teeth. “Don’t get ahead of yourself, Mia Bowen. Why didn’t you purchase that limited edition jewelry?”
Mia's smile dropped a little. “Because
it looked ordinary. Eva prepared me another set of jewelry. It's more expensive and meaningful."
Shelly's shrewd eyes caught notice of the necklace hanging around Mia's neck.
Its opulence turned Shelly sour. “So
what? Timothy gave that set of jewelry to Luna anyway. That means she's the most important person to
him, not you!". Mia scoffed in return. “Jerks are always better off with bitches. Whoever he gives
that jewelry doesn’t
bother me.”
She spun around and happened to see Timothy there.
