Chapter 720

Mia proposed, “There’s no need for you to go to such lengths. Just record a video of yourself reprimanding Asher and send it tome. You don’t have to apologize in person. Sometimes, being too polite can come across as a bit fake, you know?”

As Mia’s words trailed off, Luna’s expression froze, clearly caught off guard by Mia’s unexpected rebuttal.Inwardly, Luna couldn’t help but curse; she had indeed been dishonest

earlier.

Scolding Asher was completely out of the question for Luna. On the

contrary, she believed Asher had done an excellent job of putting Ginger in her place.

Considering his status as a member of the Barrett family, Luna believed his actions were justified.

Nonetheless, Luna received a scolding from Timothy over the phone. He went as far as suspending her credit cards, urging herto cut back on shopping and devote more time to Asher.

Despite Luna’s reluctance, she knew she had to uphold her facade by taking the initiative to apologize. Whether Mia accepted itor not didn’t concern her; she was merely putting on a show for Timothy.

However, Mia’s sudden request for Luna to record a video disciplining Asher seemed too far-fetched for her.

Refusing to yield, Luna retorted, “Ms. Monalize, perhaps you’re unaware, but Asher is part of the Barrett family. Despite being hismother, | don’t have the authority to discipline him. After all, Mrs. Barrett is the one who dotes on him more.”

Upon hearing Luna’s subtle boasting, Mia arched an eyebrow and inquired,1/3“Honestly, I’m intrigued. Is Asher truly Timothy’s son?”

“Mia, we're all Intelligent people here. Some things don’t need to be explicitly said. When it comes to Asher’s connection toTimothy, I’m sure you can see it clearly. After all, he’s been part of the Barrett family since birth,” Luna countered.

Mia wasn’t particularly taken aback by Luna’s response.Nonetheless, she couldn’t help but wonder if Asher was indeed Timothy's biological child.

Swiftly, Mia composed herself, masking her inner turmoil. “Ms. Maynard, you seem very open-minded, being ready to acceptsuch a situation without insisting on a formal title or status,” she nonchalantly remarked.

“| don’t care about status; all | want is for Asher to be part of the Barrett family.”

Luna intentionally spoke ambiguously, her tone tinged with a touch of arrogance. “Ms. Monalize, | heard about yourdisagreement with Mrs.

Sporting Tyler emerging from the elevator, Mia’s demeanor shifted abruptly. With a scowl, she snapped, “Ms. Maynard, it’s timefor you to leave. And don’t bother coming back.”

After uttering those words, Mia approached Tyler. “Are the test results. ready?”

Tyler nodded in confirmation.

Mia suggested, “Let’s discuss this matter in the consultation room.”

Ahint of curiosity flickered in Luna’s eyes. She couldn't help but wonder if Ginger was genuinely injured.

As Luna attempted to sneak over, she was promptly stopped by the bodyguard. “Please leave the premises immediately,” heinstructed.

Reluctantly, Luna complied and left the first floor. Nonetheless, she was determined to figure out exactly what the test resultswere.
