Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen )
Chapter 558

From her vantage point, Mia could see the entrance gate, but the heavy rain severely limited visibility, making it impossible to discern any activity outside.

Nonetheless, Timothy should have departed long ago.

As Mia remembered Timothy enduring Dominic's assault without retaliating, her mood grew increasingly uneasy.

She rubbed her face, reminding herself sternly, "Don't be swayed, don't falter!"

Indeed, sympathizing with a man was often the beginning of trouble!

Lying back on her bed, Mia retrieved her phone and opened Instagram.

She noticed several follow requests, mostly from her former classmates, but she didn't accept them since they weren't particularly close.

Messaging Gina, she inquired, "Are you back home?"

"Yeah."

"You and Taylor seemed to hit it off today. Hoping for good news from you two."

"Ahem, don't jinx it. Whether it works out or not depends on fate. By the way, have you checked the class group chat? It's blowing up. Who would've thought you're now a wealthy heiress with a billionaire ex-husband?"

Mia was taken aback when she saw the message. She had muted the group chat a while ago and hadn't been keeping up with the conversations.

As she opened the chat, she noticed a significant increase in the number of participants.

Someone had even tagged her in a message: "Hey, Mia! Remember me? We used to be roommates. I couldn't make it to this reunion due to some family matters, but let's plan another one soon!"

“Yeah, who would’ve thought Mia had such a wealthy background? She’s always been so low–key. I bet those who underestimated her are regretting it now. I always knew Mia was special, but some people just didn’t see it.” 

“I’ve heard that Ramona is on her knees at her family’s doorstep, begging not to be disowned. If I had a daughter who caused such trouble, I’d disown her too.” 

“Taylor, you need to plan another reunion soon. There are so many of us who missed out this time. You can’t leave anyone behind!” 

Reading these messages, Mia couldn’t help but feel a sense of irony. 

She promptly replied to Gina. “I’ve just skimmed through the messages in the group chat. These people were just acquaintances before, but now they’re acting like we’re total besties.” 

“Well that’s because everyone knows you’re an heiress who married into a wealthy family, so they’re all trying to cozy up to you. But don’t worry, I’ll make sure Taylor doesn’t organize another class reunion. I won’t let them bother you.” 

Mia now understood what it felt like to be treated differently. 

It dawned on her why the pursuit of wealth was so prevalent. She couldn’t help but notice a surge in the number of people following her on Instagram again. 

Frustrated, Mia decided to exit the class group chat, believing that distancing herself would be a preferable course of action. 

The following day, Mia went to campus as usual for her self–study session. 

This time, Antonio stood by the roadside bright and early, appearing somewhat nervous as he apologized, “Ms. Mia, I’m truly sorry about yesterday. I mistakenly thought I was supposed to pick up Mr. Dominic instead. You know how these things can happen.” 

“It’s okay, let’s go.” Recognizing yesterday’s incident as a mere misunderstanding. Mia held no blame toward Antonio. 

After spending the morning on campus, Mia was getting ready to go out for lunch when Jeremy called her. “Mia, I happen to be at your university today for a discussion. Are you available for lunch?” 

As Mia descended the stairs, her eyes caught sight of a black luxury car parked at the roadside. Was this Timothy’s car?
