Chapter 836
"Yes, this newly hired bodyguard works for me," Mia confirmed.
"But he just bumped into me and scratched my brand-new bag. You should make him pay for a replacement," Isabella demanded.
Mia lowered her gaze and indeed noticed a scratch on Isabella's bag. Turning to Timothy, she asked, "Did you do this?"
Timothy furrowed his brow. "She was distracted by her phone and didn't pay attention to where she was going. That's how she bumped into me."
Isabella immediately became indignant, pointing at Timothy and scolding, "You incompetent bodyguard, what nonsense are you spouting? You were the one carrying those things and bumped into me! How dare you accuse me of running into you?"
Timothy's demeanor turned cold in an instant. As a respected heir, he had never been berated by anyone in such a manner before. Observing the unfolding drama, Mia feigned uncertainty and remarked, "This situation appears quite complicated."novelbin
"Since he's your bodyguard, you should compensate me for the damage!"
Mia clicked her tongue disapprovingly. "Sure, monetary compensation is possible, but Isabella, could it be that you've been deceived?
"This bag of yours doesn't appear to be authentic at first glance. Genuine leather wouldn't get scratched so easily with just a slight knock."
"What nonsense are you talking about? This bag is real! How can you claim it's fake?"
"Isabella, you might doubt me on other matters, but when it comes to luxury goods, do you really think I would make a mistake in judgment?" Isabella inspected her bag incredulously and then angrily dialed a number, saying, "You bastard! How dare you sell me fake goods? I'm going to hold you accountable for this."
Mia turned to Timothy and said, "Let's go, my incompetent bodyguard." Timothy was taken aback by Mia's words.
After Isabella took a few steps, she turned back to address Mia once more, her expression defiant. "But don't get too cocky. My brother, Lewis, has recently struck a deal with the Barrett Group. We're set to surpass the Lane family soon."
Mia raised an eyebrow in surprise. "The Barrett Group? Which one?" "The renowned Barrett Group in Bern City! Haven't you heard of it? Lewis is gearing up to expand projects in Bern City, and mark my words, we'll soon be standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the Lane family. Trust me, you'll regret not being engaged to Lewis!" Isabella declared confidently.
Glancing at Timothy beside her, Mia wondered, "Why did Timothy want to collaborate with the Bowen family?"
Meanwhile, a frown creased Timothy's face as he pondered, "Why was Mia nearly engaged to the Bowen family?"
After Isabella finished her boastful remarks, she turned to Timothy and quipped, "Pqor bodyguard, be more careful when you walk next time. Selling you won't even cover the cost of replacing my bag."
Mia was at a loss for words. She wondered how Isabella would react if she knew she was was insulting the president of the Barrett Group. Once Isabella left, Mia looked at Timothy with a smirk and asked, "So, is this collaboration still on?"
Timothy's expression darkened as he replied, "You can stop talking now."
Mia couldn't help but burst into laughter. She found it oddly gratifying to witness Timothy being scolded so directly.
With his black sunglasses on, Timothy paused briefly when he m noticed her smile. “Did that woman just mention that you were almost engaged to her brother?"
