Female Novel
Chapter 949
Sharon's body was trembling due to fury, as she didn't expect Mia to disrespect her.
Sharon was Ginger's grandmother! If Sharon wanted Ginger's custody right, it would only be a good thing for Ginger's upbringing.
Veronica added fuel to the fire. "Sharon, we have to figure out something to get the custody right over the kid. Tim has been single and he doesn't
have kids. If Shelly gives birth to a baby, she and her mother hog away the family's assets."
Sharon nodded in agreement. "You're right. But Mia's family is rich. It won't be easy for us to get it from them.”
"They're rich, but the assets will be inherited by her brothers, not her. She's just the youngest anyway. How much can she gain after getting married?
"If she gives us Ginger, Ginger will be able to inherit all of our family's assets. Mia has nothing to lose."
"You have a point. I'll talk to her later." Sharon was determined to get Ginger's custody right.
Having a granddaughter was better than having none.
"No, I'll talk to her.” Veronica stopped Sharon.
Sharon sighed. As she grew older, all her friends had grandchildren except her.
Asher was her only hope, but to her dismay, he wasn't her biological grandson.
It was a waste of her effort to treat him well. If only he was truly her biological grandson...
The thought of Asher's matter made her blood boil.
If Asher wasn't her biological grandson, why did Timothy keep Asher with them? It was strange!
Mia took the front VIP seat at the auction area. Raising her head, she saw Sharon coming as well.
But the latter only sat somewhere close to her instead of her abutting seat.
Jasmine was sensible enough to separate Mia's seat from the Barrett family.
When the auction was going to commence soon, Mia had yet to see Raymond.
According to the sources, he should be attending the event for his daughter's sake.
Most of the guests attended as an act of reverence for him.
Mia texted Peyton. "Find out why Mr. Shelbert is still not at the charity dinner.”
Soon, the auction started.
As someone who came to support the event, Mia casually raised her bidding number. But Sharon kept following her bid.novelbin
If it was only once, it could be a coincidence, but the same thing kept happening. It was obvious Sharon was doing it intentionally.
Mia spared a glance at Sharon, who touched her bracelet with a smug expression.
Blair huffed, "Mrs. Barrett is so mean, Mia. That old hag is definitely doing this on purpose.”
"I know. Calm down."
After that, Mia raised her bidding number for every item, raising the bid by multiple folds.
Sharon followed Mia again several times until she realized that Mia was raising the bid as she wished and stopped her antics.
Turning her head, Mia raised her brow at Sharon provokingly.
Furious, Sharon gritted her teeth.
Mia received a message from Peyton.
"Mr. Shelbert is at the charity dinner, but he's meeting someone upstairs so he hasn't showed up yet."
Mia replied, "Find out who he's meeting. Keep an eye on his room. Inform me as soon as he leaves the room."
She was dogged to meet Raymond today at all costs.
After buying an item from the auction, Mia stood up to go to the restroom.
She took out her phone to confirm some information regarding the project with her subordinates. When she met Raymond, she had to convince him
to give her the offer.
