NovelEnglishChapter 706 This arrangement would bring Asher even closer to the Barrett family.
Luna's scheme had been advancing seamlessly until her unexpected encounter with Monalize during her trip to Xanier Island, which threw everything into disarray.
However, she wasn't about to give up easily.
After concluding the call, Sharon swiftly glanced at Shelly's post, confirming the selfie and its caption.

Sitting beside Sharon, her sister Veronica Hopkins cautiously inquired," Sharon, what's going on?" "Veronica, Luna just called me and mentioned that Tim brought a woman back from Xanier Island. Apparently, she's not just a gold-digger but also looks remarkably similar to Mia. Why do | always seem to come across echoes of Mia?" "Sharon, | trust Tim to be smart enough not to fall for a gold digger," Veronica said.
"You don't understand. Tim was completely infatuated with the late Mia. If things were different, | wouldn't even acknowledge Luna's son. It's only because Tim refuses to marry and have children. Are we just expected to hand over everything from the Barrett Family to outsiders in the future?" Sharon sighed.
"Then why not simply let Tim marry Luna since they already have a child together? It would save US from the disturbances caused by other women," Veronica suggested.
Sharon couldn't help but frown in response. "But Luna comes from a rather ordinary background. She used to work in a bar, and she can't even compare to Mia's status." Veronica countered, "But if Mia were still around, do you honestly think you could have easily taken charge as the matriarch of the Barrett family? Chances are, you'd have faced continuous challenges I< FO. After all, dealing with a wealthy daughter- in-law isn't always a walk in the park." Recalling Mia's arrogant and domineering demeanor as the young lady of the Lane family, Sharon couldn't help but feel uneasy.
However, she felt a sense of relief knowing that Mia was no longer alive; otherwise, Mia's behavior would have likely driven her to the brink of anger.
Feeling a bit uneasy, Sharon said, "I'll head to the mall to look for Shelly. | must have a word with that woman." "I'll accompany you, Sharon. I'm also curious about who that little troublemaker is," Veronica offered.
With that, the two of them left the beauty salon and headed straight to the mall.
In the mall, Mia's eyes gleamed with mockery as she watched Shelly carrying several bags.
Despite this, she kept a smile on her face. "Shelly, is there anything else you need to buy? I'm starting to feel a bit worn out from shopping. Let's go grab a drink." "Monalize, there's a café in the mall that serves decent coffee. Let me treat you this time. Shall we go?" Despite feeling somewhat reluctant, Shelly also realized that appearing too greedy wouldn't leave a good impression.
Mia presented her VIP membership card to Gianna and asked, "Could you please check US out?" Shelly's eyes widened with envy as she caught sight of the card. If only she could have one too.

The ambiance was undeniably delightful-quiet, with only a few patrons, providing a sense of privacy.
| As they sat down, Shelly couldn't help but massage her feet.My feet are killing me after standing for so long.
Mia stole a glance at Shelly's designer high reeled o ) Bre fl < oe RA using visible blisters on her feet.
Despite her discomfort, Shelly stubbornly refused to take off her shoes,it was evident that she had a deep-seated vanity. After they ordered their drinks, Mia asked, "Shelly, what is Mr. Barrett's mother usually like?"
