Chapter 742
Several guests with close ties with the Barretts had encountered Mia Bowen before. They were taken aback by the uncanny resemblance between the two women, their surprise registering visibly.
Mia smiled. "I know Mr. Barrett's ex-wife looks a lot like me. They say that pretty ladies often resemble each other. Don't you think so?"
Nikki's expression hinted at her alarm as she inquired, "Mrs. Barrett, who, is this?"
Sharon offered an indifferent introduction. "She's Shelly's friend."
Shelly quickly interjected, "That's not right, Aunt Sharon. Monalize is Tim's girlfriend."
"What are you talking about, Shelly? Since when has Tim had a girlfriend? not aware of that, and I certainly don't approve of her either," Sharon firmly declared.
Nikki and her mother visibly relaxed upon hearing Sharon's stance.
After all, a woman couldn't enter a wealthy family without proper acknowledgment by the family.
Shelly persisted, "We'll find out once Tim arrives."
Ignoring Shelly's comment, Sharon redirected the conversation. "Let's not pay attention to childish talk. How about a stroll in the garden? It's
beautiful out there."
Amelia Mapp agreed, "I've heard that the private resort has tailored its services for you, Mrs. Barrett. We're envious. It's a service exclusive to your family!"
Sharon grinned proudly. "It's thanks to my son that we get to experience this. Their service is indeed top-notch, not only in design but also in food.
The ingredients were freshly flown in this morning. You should consider hosting an event here in the future."
The group of people strolled around. Meanwhile, the other guests couldn't stop showering praises on the private resort.
Mia, trailing behind them, felt elated hearing the positive feedback. "It's not too shabby," she remarked with a chuckle. The swelling pride within her was unmistakable.
Nikki suddenly turned her head to look at Mia. "Ms. Monalize, is that your comment on the design? Not too shabby? You sure have high standards."
All eyes immediately shifted to Mia.
Sharon scowled. "Since it's not up to your standard, feel free to leave whenever you please."
Mia calmly replied, "Sorry, I didn't mean it that way."
"You better not have," Sharon retorted before leading the guests onward. "
dow me, everyone. Behold, a sea of blue roses. It's said to cost millions to cultivate them. We may encounter blue beauties elsewhere, but genuine blue roses are a rarity."
The guests eagerly began taking pictures of the blue roses.

Nikki interjected, "It is not easy to grow blue roses, hence its rarity. It requires precise temperature@dntrol at-77°F during cultivation, and once they bloom, they can only be exposed to sunlight for eight hours. Anything lesser or more than that is
unacceptable." The content is on bignovels.com! Read the latest

Impressed, Sharon nodded. "You know that too? I'm impressed."

Mia couldn't resist interjecting, "She got it wrong."
