Female Novel
Chapter 930
Mia's lips twitched with irritation as she stepped forward, seizing Timothy's tie in her grip.
The surrounding reporters watched with widened eyes, stunned by the unexpected turn of events.
Speaking in a low voice, Mia addressed Timothy, “Well played, Mr. Barrett."
She couldn't fathom why he would pull such a stunt in front of the reporters.
Unfazed by Mia's agitation, Timothy leaned down to meet her gaze. "The media has been spreading rumors about you being a divorced single mother. I don't want to see them tarnish your reputation.”
“Timothy, just stop. You're here today for the signing ceremony to address the fraudulent contract with the Bowen family.
"Don't veer off topic and indulge in nonsensical banter with the media. They're not interested in our personal affairs!" Mia snapped.
The nearby reporters couldn't help but inwardly grumble, “Really? We're utterly engrossed in this gossip and are eager for them to reveal more. Otherwise, what will we have for tomorrow's headlines?"
Timothy nodded in response to Mia's words. "Alright, we'll do as you say. Let's focus on addressing the forgery issue now. How would you like to handle it? You have the final say regarding the Bowen family's affair.”"Don't flatter yourself," Mia retorted sharply. "With the Lane family backing me, the Bowen family poses no threat to me whatsoever. I'm only here to witness the drama between them and you. It's got nothing to do with me."Caleb promptly stepped in, his gaze fixed on Connie and Lewis who were huddled nearby. "Why are you two hiding? Didn't I instruct you to apologize?"
Connie and Lewis appeared uneasy, their tension palpable. They hadn't expected Timothy to pursue Mia because she was his ex-wife.
Today had been filled with inexplicable events, leaving Connie utterly dumbfounded.
How could Mia possibly be Timothy's ex-wife?
Connie had previously assumed Mia had become involved with some outsider, resulting in her being pregnant with two illegitimate children.
But who could have imagined that Mia was married to Timothy and had even given birth to two children with him?
It seemed that this news had been tightly concealed, as there wasn't even a hint of it circulating in the public eye.
But what should the Bowens do now?
Given that Mia was Timothy's ex-wife and had two children with him, Timothy surely wouldn't be lenient with them.
With a nervous demeanor, Connie turned to Lewis and implored, "What should we do? Lewis, say something!"
Meanwhile, Lewis was also overwhelmed with regret. He never anticipated that Mia's former husband would be Timothy Barrett!
It felt like a series of unbelievable coincidences.
Despite his regrets, Lewis gathered his courage and stepped forward, determined to prevent the collapse of the Bowen Group. "Ms. Lane, I take full responsibility for my past mistakes. I ask that you rise above them. Please,don't lower yourself to our level."
Mia's expression remained icy upon hearing Lewis’ words. "I've said it before, I don't need your hypocritical apology.”
Her objective was clear—to hold the Bowen family accountable.
Lewis had navigated through three marriages, each concluding tragically as three different women succumbed to the cruelty of the Bowen family, leaving devastation in their wake.novelbin
Therefore, Mia believed it was crucial for accountability and justice to prevail. She was determined to ensure that the Bowen family faced the consequences of their actions.
Caleb swiftly turned to Connie, urging her, "And you as well. If you're going to apologize, it must be sincere. Otherwise, your son's company will be on the verge of collapse, and you'll find yourselves homeless, living likebeggars."
Connie's face drained of color at the thought. The notion of apologizing to Mia felt akin to confronting imminent death.
