Mia couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Unreasonable requests? Ms. Maynard, what would you consider unreasonable? Asking Mr. Barrett to hand over all his wealth? Or perhaps requesting him to be my boyfriend?" Her words landed heavily on Luna, hitting a nerve.
As Mia's words trailed off, she sensed Timothy's gaze intensifying.
She deliberately turned to him and inquired, "Mr. Barrett, what are your thoughts?" Timothy cleared his throat awkwardly.
"Either option works for me." Upon hearing Timothy's response, both Shelly and Luna were shocked.
Mia's lips curved into a smirk.
"Well then, I shall provide you with the reishi mushroom, but you must agree to date me." Timothy's gaze grew complex as he responded with a deep voice," Sure." Mia was genuinely taken aback by Timothy's swift agreement.
She hadn't expected him to comply so readily, assuming he might decline or find another excuse.
Unable to contain her laughter, Mia turned to Shelly.
"Looks like our relationship is progressing.
Finally, I can share my bags and shoes with my sisters." Shelly's eyes brightened, and she responded eagerly, "Yes, exactly! Monalize, we're practically like family now." Nonetheless, Mia couldn't help but sense a hint of resentment from someone else weighing heavily on her.
As she turned around, she noticed Luna's unfriendly gaze.
With a smirk, Mia remarked, "Ms. Maynard, what's with the look? It's as if I've stolen your man.
If you and Mr. Barrett are an item, then I'll gladly step aside!" Timothy frowned and clarified, "Luna and I aren't romantically involved." With an eye roll, Shelly swiftly clarified, "Exactly.
Monalize, please don't misunderstand.
Luna is just a distant relative of our family, not Tim's partner." A distant relative? Mia was taken aback by Shelly's explanation.
She glanced at Luna with a smirk and nodded.
"Ah, I see.
Well then, that clears things up.
Ms. Maynard, please spare me that intimidating glare.
It's quite unnerving." Luna was utterly furious.
It seemed that Monalize was an expert manipulator! She had completely fooled Timothy, who had now agreed to date her just for the sake of the reishi mushrooms. Was he completely out of his mind? Luna couldn't help but feel slighted by Shelly for not supporting her in this crucial moment, instead choosing to appease Monalize.
Luna wished she could expose Monalize's hypocritical facade right then and there, but in front of Timothy, she had to suppress her emotions for the time being.
Mia couldn't help but notice Luna's changing expression.
If she pushed Luna a bit more, perhaps Luna would show her true feelings.
Just then, Timothy approached Mia.
"It's getting late.
Let me take you to the hotel to rest." "It's alright.
I have a villain Ninth Manor.
I'll go there later.

Shelly became increasingly convinced that Monalize was a prominent socialite.
If she could establish a close relationship with her, she would surely receive more lavish gifts.
Glancing at Timothy, Mia suggested, "You should stay at the hospital and attend
to Mrs.
Barrett Senior.
I'll have the driver take me." Without waiting for Timothy's response, Mia turned
and swiftly walked away.
However, instead of leaving immediately, she slipped into the restroom.
Emerging from the stall, she found Luna waiting for her outside with a grim
expression.
