Chapter 488
“You’re being too understanding, Mia. It pains me to see you like this. Don’t worry. At the upcoming
party this weekend, every one of us is there for you.”
Eva gritted her teeth, recalling that a charity auction would be held during the party.
Considering that the Barretts were the host, Eva was resolute to teach them a lesson that night.
How could she simply turn a blind eye to Mia’s suffering when Dominic couldn’t either?
Meanwhile, Mia simply assumed that Eva had given up on a retaliation, hence the sigh of relief. “We’ve
bought the clothes we need. Let’s go home.”novelbin
“Okay. Bill, please.” Eva bought many clothes as though they were worth nothing. She seemed used to
it.
That strange feeling stirred in Mia again.
Still, Eva’s spending wouldn’t cause a problem because Dominic and the others were raking in big
money.
Together, they returned home with fruitful shopping. Patricia kept rambling about how wasteful they
were at the sight of the pile of clothes, but that didn’t stop her from getting changed into new clothes
happily.
Mia washed up and lay in bed. Her phone buzzed. A text read: “Why didn’t you take the bag? It suits
your dress.”
Timothy Barrett, again.
She thought of a reply to that: “Because I don’t like it.”
As soon as she sent the message, Timothy called her.
Although she hesitated for a moment, she answered the call. “Hello? Anything?”
“Congratulations on reuniting with your family. Grandma will be happy to hear the news”
Silence dawned on her for a second. “I’ll tell her about it soon.‘
“I heard your family is quite rich. Who are they?”
“They’re from Nord City. They’re not that rich, but they doted on me. They’re generous with money
whenever it comes to me.”
“No wonder you didn’t care about money when we divorced.”
Sharon’s distorted expression conjured in her head, lifting her spirits. “Yes, because I don’t lack
money.”
Timothy’s chest tightened when he heard that. Often, he had the feeling that Mia was getting farther
and farther away from his reach.

She smiled. “Oh, Mrs. Barrett snitched on me, didn’t she?”
“Yup, she asked me to drive you guys out of the mall.”
“Why didn’t you do as she said?”
“I’m a businessman. This is the rule of thumb in the business world. You guys own a VIP membership
card, so you have the right to have the whole place to yourselves.”
Mia didn’t know how to respond to that. “You are a qualified businessman, Timothy Barrett.”
Then, she hung up the call.
He glanced at his phone. An unexplainable weight stifled his chest.
His eyes shifted to the building outside.
In the past, he’d returned home after work every day; but now, he didn’t know how long it had been
since he last returned to his marital home on time.
The place felt so empty after Mia’s departure. Something was missing.
Frustrated, Timothy reached out to Caleb. “Found out who Mia’s family is already?”
“No clue for now. There’s no change to her family background, so I can’t find anything.”

“Doesn’t that make them a perfect match?” Caleb blurted.
Dark clouds shrouded Timothy almost instantly. “Shut up.”

Timothy paused momentarily.
That idea sounded feasible.
