Mia glanced back, her eyes filled with disbelief as she realized that the phone belonged to
Eva.
So, Eva was the cardholder?
However, according to Shelly’s earlier explanation, acquiring such a card required an
annual expenditure of a million dollars, along with other evidence of status, making it
unlikely to be easily obtained.
Could Eva’s family be that affluent?
With a mocking expression, Shelly taunted, “Mia, did you guys steal someone else’s card
in the store? Now that you’ve been caught red–handed, let’s see what excuses you come
up with.”
Chelsea glanced at the buzzing phone on the sofa before turning to Penny. “Is the owner
of this phone in the fitting room, perhaps?”
Just then, Eva walked over, reaching for

the phone as she gave it a wave.
Apologies, but this is actually mine,” she remarked.

Shelly’s expression morphed into one of disbelief. “That can’t be right. Just because the
owner isn’t here, do you think it’s okay to take their belongings?”
Since when did Mia have such wealthy connections?
Sharon fixed Penny with a stern glare, demanding, “Speak up. Where is the owner of this
phone? Bring her out! Someone is attempting to steal her VIP membership card along with
her phone.”
Penny, visibly nervous, stammered, Chelsea, this phone belongs to Ms. Delgado. I
confirmed their details when they entered the store.”
Chelsea’s expression changed abruptly as she rushed over to Eva, holding out the VIP
membership card.
“I deeply apologize for the
misunderstanding. It was our mistake, and we sincerely regret any

inconvenience caused. Please accept our apologies.”
Mia watched in astonishment, struggling to comprehend the situation unfolding
before her.
Just then, Eva extended the card back to her. “Mia, please, take it!”
Observing the card in Eva’s hand, Mia hesitantly replied, “This card seems too valuable. I
can’t accept it!”
“It’s a gift for you. Just take it. After all, there are plenty of patronizing individuals out
there,” Eva replied.
Sharon, feeling humiliated, snapped back, “Who do you think you’re insulting?
Consumed by jealousy, Shelly couldn’t resist making a snarky comment as she observed
the VIP membership card in Mia’s hand. “What’s the use of taking the card? You still can’t
afford anything in this store.”
Eva shot back, “It’s not a problem. This

card has an annual spending limit of millions of dollars. Mia can use it as she pleases.”
Sharon couldn’t resist asking, “Who are you exactly? And why are you being so generous
to Mia?”
Shelly chimed in, fanning the flames, Yeah, Mia is just a gold–digging
imposter. She used every trick in the book to marry into our family.
“And when she realized she couldn’t get her hands on any money, she
immediately started talking about
divorce and running into the arms of
another man. Watch out, Mia might try to steal your husband.”
Upon hearing these words, Mia’s

anticipated Shelly to openly reveal her three–year marriage with Timothy.
In response, Mia countered sharply, “If I were truly a gold digger, I would have seized
control of the Barrett Group by now, and all of you would have been

kicked out of the Barrett residence.”
Clicking her tongue, Sharon declared, Oh, Mia, I expected this from you. That’s why I
insisted on having you sign a prenuptial agreement. If you and
Timothy end up divorcing, you won’t receive a cent!”
Mia arched an eyebrow, her tone unwavering, “Well, it seems you’re not up to speed.
Timothy actually tore up the prenuptial agreement in front of me.”
“What? That’s impossible!”
Sharon’s complexion paled upon hearing Mia’s revelation. The prenuptial agreement had
been their only leverage, against Mia.
Undeterred, Mia continued, “And let’s not forget, before Grandma Laura’s surgery, she had
Timothy sign an agreement ensuring that the child I bear will inherit the Barrett Group.”
Shelly’s eyes widened in disbelief as she glanced at Mia’s belly, realizing she was
pregnant.

Although she was unsure why Mia had kept this information concealed, Shelly couldn’t
shake the feeling that Mia had ulterior motives.
