Chapter 945

Mia strode toward the banquet hall without looking back, not wanting to waste time with the reporters.

She didn't have the luxury of time to reveal her personal information to feed the reporters some juicy headlines.

She barely took a few steps when she suddenly felt a scorching gaze on her.

Turning her head to look outside the hall, she didn't notice anything out of particular.

Frowning, she wondered if she was overthinking it.

Slowly, she turned back and shrugged it off as being oversensitive. After walking into the hall, she noticed that many were looking in her direction.

They obviously knew that Timothy was her ex-husband.

After all, Timothy was on that list enumerating possible names that could be her ex-husband.

People would only buy it when there was a mixture of truth and lies.

Although Mia could do something to the headlines published out there, she couldn't stop words from spreading among the insiders.

Now, a lot of people were aware that she had married the president of Barrett Group before.

"Ms. Mia, why are you here today?" A sweet-looking blonde approached Mia and linked her arms so intimately.

That was Raymond's daughter, Jasmine Shelbert.

Mia wasn't used to profusely enthusiastic welcomes.

It was clear that Jasmine was aiming to get together with Nathan, in other words, Mia's sister-in-law!

Mia forced a smile. "I dropped by for fun after hearing that there's a charity banquet going on. Why? Am I not welcome here?"

"Of course, you're welcome here! But I heard that the president of Barrett Group is your ex-husband. Is that true?"

That answer was neither an admission nor a denial.

The clever Jasmine naturally understood what Mia meant.

"Alot of guests are invited today. Some of them are rich families from Bern City."

Mia asked, "Are the Barretts invited too?"

"Yes. Ms. Mia, I've planned for today's charity banquet for a long time. And I didn't know about you and your ex-husband back then, let alone the fact

that he's from a rich family in Bern City.

Mia nodded. "I'm not that petty. I know, so you don't have to take it to heart.”

So what if the Barretts were invited? She wasn't afraid of them.novelbin

"I'm glad to hear that, Ms. Mia. I was so worried.”

"There's nothing for you to be worried about. I've severed all ties with my ex-in-laws anyway. It won't hurt to meet them," Mia assured.

Despite her distaste for such a pretentious character, Mia had to show respect because Jasmine's father was the mayor.

"That's great! Thank you for understanding. There are a lot of guests coming today. I should get going."

"Sure, go ahead. Don't mind me."
