NovelEnglishChapter 787 Mia stayed rooted on the spot calmly, her gaze focused on Shelly who seemed to have shrunken from cowardice.
Mia asked, “What did you say? | didn’t catch you clearly. Mind saying it once more?” Shelly's face drained of color as she stuttered, “I-I'm Shelly Barrett! If you hurt me, my family will never let you get away with it!” Mia snorted. “Very well. | shall make your wish ctrue. I'll strip you guys off and wait for your family to cat me.” Following that, the bodyguards trapped Shelly and Luna in a circle.
Shelly screamed, “What do you think you're doing! I'm Shelly Barrett! Tim will never let you go if you do this!” Luck wasn’t on Shelly and Luna’s side. They just had to confront Mia when she happened to be in a bad mood.
Mia decided to let off ssteam by playing with them.
Coldness shrouded Mia's eyes. “How about this? You both discuss who'll stay and who'll leave.” Luna huffed, “Ms. Monalize, you're trying to drive a wedge between Shelly and I. Just how low can you stoop?” “It is embarrassing, but it works, doesn’t it? That's all that matters. You have ten seconds. Ten, nine, eight...” Mia began the countdown.

Shelly was drenched in cold sweat as she looked at Luna. “I'm still young. I'll be marrying someone in the future.
I'll go, y-you'll stay. Tim will surely treat you well if he knows you saved me.” Luna retorted, “Are you out of your mind, Shelly Barrett? This woman doesn’t have the guts to commit such a thing in broad daylight. Don’t be a scaredy cat because of what she said, jeez!” “Since you're this brave, you can stay. I'm out of here!” Shelly shoved Luna and ran away without looking back. Even her heels were abandoned.
Mia chuckled and mocked Luna, “Look at the useless trash you tried so hard to butter up. Did 1/2 you do that to have a taste of how fast people can turn against you?” “Don’t get ahead of yourself! The Barretts know your true colors now. You don’t stand a chance at all,” Luna retorted.
Mia arched a brow. “Well, do | care? Only foolish women would bet everything they had on a man.” “You don’t know everything. You wouldn't know what you would have done if you were poor. “Luna’s gaze darted to Mia’s bodyguards and the luxury brands Mia was wearing.
Jealousy consumed Luna. Luna believed that Mia wouldn't have been able to act this high and mighty if she had been born poor.
“You've finally acted like yourself. Do you admit you love money now?” Mia asked.
“Money's the reason why everything goes your way. If you were poor, it would've been otherwise,” Luna said.
Mia wasn’t taken aback by Luna’s remark. “Even if | was poor, | would at least uphold my morals. Unlike you.” “Stop pretending! No one knows where you got that money from. You better get the hell out of Bern City with your sickly daughter! And never cback! There's no place in the Barrett family for the both of you!” Right after those words were uttered by Luna, Mia delivered a slap across Luna's face.
Covering her stinging cheek, Luna shrieked, “How dare you!”
“Have you forgotten about those sharks on Xavier Island?” Mia grabbed Luna's hair."I warnes you. Do not anger me. You've crossed the line by mentioning my daughter. Let's call it a day with a slap today. Next time, it won't be this simple anymore.” Mia released her and left. It would only be a waste of tstaying here.

Luna stood over there in a haggard state, her tongue licking her bloody lips.
She vowed in silent, “You cherish your daughter so much, huh? You're going to regret this ! I'l make you beg for mercy on your knees!”
As soon as Mia returned to her place, she called Nicholas. “The plans will land in Nord City tomorrow morning.
After that, I'll leave matters here to you.” “What about you? What if Timothy finds out about this?” 2/2
