"Well... I've never met the owner before," Shelly said.

Mia burst into laughter. "You've never met the owner before, and yet you dare to talk so boldly?"

Shelly refused to be at a disadvantage and promptly responded, "But I'll be able to see him soon. Our two families are about to cooperate, and we'll surely meet frequently in the future." "Who told you that Aide Castle will definitely cooperate with the Barrett family?"

"I am sure of it. We came to Nord City for this collaboration. Isn't that right, Aunt Sharon?"

Sharon nodded confidently. "Indeed, Ms. Lane, whether we choose to collaborate with the owner or not, your approval alone doesn't hold any weight."

Mia's eyes were sharp as she declared, "I have the final say in choosing who Aide Castle will collaborate with, and your input is irrelevant."

Sharon's expression froze instantly. "How arrogant!"

"I can't help it. As the owner, I have the final decision on all of Aide Castle Hotel's collaborations. Besides the Barrett family, we have many other great partners among our guests here today."

Mia emanated a completely different aura, speaking with a superior attitude. She was no longer the gentle young lady she was earlier. Sharon felt somewhat embarrassed.

Shelly shouted, "Mia, stop lying! Just because you claimed to be the owner of Aide Castle, it doesn't mean you own it!"

"Who's the owner of Aide Castle?" As soon as Shelly finished speaking, the crowd swiftly parted, and Timothy entered from outside.

Dressed in a sleek black suit, his striking features stood out in the crowd. As soon as he spotted Mia, Timothy unconsciously made his way toward her.

He certainly didn't expect to encounter Mia at the banquet today. Since the last hacking incident, Sage had deleted his contact completely. That callous boy Sage had shown no mercy to him.

As soon as Timothy appeared, the

scene turned quiet. He positioned himself directly in front of her, his once distant eyes now filled with cautiousness, as if afraid of inadvertently offending Mia. Now, he was extremely careful when facing Mia and the two kids.

Mia stared at Timothy with disdain. She found him utterly unlikable. The Barretts were truly annoying.

Timothy was acutely aware of Mia's

l.n

displeasure, and he immediately began to reflect on the fact that he had not offended her recently, except for the incident last time involving Sage. He wondered if Mia

was still angry.

When Timothy was about to speak, Luna stepped forward and greeted him. "Timothy, it's been quite a while."

As Luna spoke, she adjusted her branded dress and turned her head slightly to reveal her most beautiful profile. She was no longer the ordinary girl she had been before. It

was time for Timothy to see a different side of her. Content

Mia saw Luna's bitchy look and scoffed dismissively. It seemed that old habits die hard. Did Luna truly believe she could win over Timothy in this manner?

It was utterly improbable that Luna was involved with Timothy's brother, though Luna was unaware of this fact for now. Mia calmly folded her arms and narrowed her eyes, looking unconcerned.

Noticing Timothy's lack of response, Luna reached out and took hold of his arm. "Timothy, did you hear me?"

Timothy moved aside and replied coldly, "I'm not familiar with you."
