NovelEnglishChapter 694 Mia approached Shelly with a cheerful demeanor. "Shelly, how do you like the shoes? Have you tried them on yet? Do they fit well?" Seeing Mia, Shelly immediately set aside her phone and smiled, responding, "I've tried them on, and they fit perfectly." In truth, Shelly hadn't bothered trying them on. Since they were a gift, she didn't want to waste them even if they didn't fit properly.
Mia could immediately see through Shelly's lie, but instead of confronting her, she maintained a smile and remarked, "Shelly, | bumped into Ms.

"Monalize, don't let Luna's words bother you. You're not a substitute at all. Tim has always been loyal, and he has a particular taste in women. You're much better than Tim's ex-wife. You two are simply meant to be together." Shelly was overjoyed as she held onto the branded bag and shoes she had received for free. If Monalize ended up with Timothy, wouldn't that mean she could continue enjoying such perks? After all, Monalize was much more generous than Luna.
Observing Shelly taking the bait, Mia frowned and inquired, "Was there a romantic history between Ms. Maynard and Mr. Barrett?" "No! It's always been Luna who had feelings for Tim. However, Tim hasn't reciprocated Luna's feelings all these years. If they were meant to be together, they would have been a couple by now," Shelly asserted.
Mia was somewhat skeptical of Shelly's claims. She then dropped the bombshell, "I've heard rumors that Luna has a son living with the Barretts. Ssay he's Timothy's illegitimate child." Shelly hesitated momentarily, her eyes shifting uneasily as she responded," That's not true. When Luna lived | x with the Barretts, she assumed the identity of Tim's sister.
"Her son is from srandom dude. Monalize, don't concern yourself with it. When you and Tim are together eventually, the child you have will be the heir of the Barrett family." Upon hearing this, Mia's eyes flashed with coldness. After all, she had already given birth to a pair of twins.
Mia realized that she wouldn't obtain any useful information from Shelly at the moment. With that in mind, she turned and left the hospital.
Nonetheless, she couldn't shake the feeling that Shelly's words didn't quite add up.

Typically, they involved illegitimate children whose fathers were unwilling to acknowledge their mothers’ identity but also couldn't bring themselves to abandon their children.
After settling into the car, Mia stole a glance at Ginger, who was still asleep beside her.
Regardless of the circumstances, Mia was determined not to allow her children to return to the Barrett family and compete with Luna's son for any inheritance.
Meanwhile, upstairs, Timothy observed Mia's departure from the window, his gaze deep and contemplative.
Timothy hadn't expected Mia to personally bring the reishi mushrooms over.
Standing nearby, Caleb couldn't help but interject, "Tim, so Monalize's initial offer was for you to be her boyfriend? That seems like quite a deal. Why didn't you agree sooner?" Timothy's glare swept over Caleb. "She also claimed Ginger was yours before. How could | have simply agreed to that?" "I've told you, she must have confusedwith someone else. Ginger certainly isn't mine," Caleb replied, turning toward Timothy. "You were hesitant at first, but now look at you. You know how they say men's words can be pretty deceptive, right? Turns out, it's spot on." Timothy paused for a moment, seemingly deep in thought. "Did you verify the identity of the person who purchased the plane ticket?"
