Sharon cocked a brow. “Her family? I don’t think she’s referring to her adoptive parents, but her biological parents.”
As though struck by lightning, Maya looked at Sharon in disbelief. “Biological parents? What do you mean?”
Suddenly. Maya had a bad feeling about this.
Puzzled. Sharon said, “You didn’t know? Mia found her biological family. She bought the dress with her family at the mall. Her family even owns a VIP membership card at Vior. They could choose whatever they want from the limited edition collection.”
She then turned to Mia to voice her doubt, “Why didn’t you buy the bag together? They’re a set.”
Mia paused as Timothy’s gaze was on her. She answered calmly, “I didn’t like it.”
His brows furrowed. Did she not like the bag or the fact that it was a gift from him?
Maya screamed. “No! Impossible! How could you have found your family? This has to be a false alarm!”
If the Lanes had found Mia, they would’ve announced it to everyone.
It didn’t seem like the Lanes had found Mia yet.
Otherwise, why would Dominic and the others come when Maya made Dana lie that she was the true Ms.
Lane?
Mia couldn’t follow Maya, so she asked, “Maya, why are you so sure about that?”
“I’m sure of it! I’m sure of it!” Maya got up to her feet, her expression turning weird as she fixed a gaze on Mia. “Who bought you the dress at the mall? Who was it?”
As long as she knew who it was, she would know the truth!
“Why must I tell you that? Why must I answer your question?” Maya’s unhinged reaction put Mia off. Mia didn’t want to reveal it in case Maya caused Eva trouble.
Maya grabbed Mia by the arms, yelling, your family?”
You have to tell me! Who accompanied you to the mall? Who is
It hurt Mia.
Mia frowned, thinking, “Is she nuts? Why can’t she accept that I’ve found my real family?”
“Let go of her!” A stern voice Intervened at that moment.
Six handsome men in suits walked into the room.
* OR
Eva book the center spot fully dressed in a branded dress with a luxury bay. She truly looked tea wealthy lady.
The appearance made AMia smile. They’ve antved just in time. She was looking for them.
Maya released Mia and then scurried toward them, grabbing Dominic’s hand. ¡®Dominic, someone’s bullying mel
Mia’s eyes widened at the intimate interaction. She looked at her brothers in disbelief,
She couldn’t understand the situation at all. Why was Maya calling Dominic by his first name?
Coldly, he withdrew his hand. “I think it’s the other way round, though.”
Maya was stunned. “Why would I bully others?”
“I clearly saw you grabbing Mia by the arm. What were you trying to do?” Eva didn’t give Maya the room to excuse herself.
Maya explained hurriedly, “I wasn’t trying to do anything, Eval”
An equally confused Sharon asked, “Is she your sister¨Cin¨Claw?”
Eva wore an ambiguous smile. “That’s right. My husband Is Dominic. I don’t show up in public that often.
It’s normal for you to not know me.”
Sharon’s expression changed drastically. “What is going on here? Maya, aren’t they your family? Why are they Mia’s family? Are there two Ms. Lanes?”
That was the only way to explain the situation.
Maya’s heart sank to her stomach. She turned back, glancing at Mia before returning her focus to Sharon. What do you mean they’re Mia’s family?*
“Didn’t you keep asking who bought Mia the dress? It was your sister¨Cin¨Claw!” Sharon’s words were like cold water pouring over Maya’s head.
Maya’s legs were shaking. “No way. How could this be?”
Since when did the Lanes find Mia? Why didn’t Maya know anything?
She didn’t even know that Eva took Mia shopping!
Eva walked toward Mia with a smile. “Mrs. Barrett, there’s no two Ms. Lanes. There’s only one this e entire time.”
“Wasn’t it Maya?” Sharon couldn’t get it.
“She’s adopted. She’s not the true Ms. Lane. Everyone in Nord City knows that, but I don’t think the people in Bern City do.”
There was too much information for Sharon to take in at the moment. “So, It’s Mia?”
She covered her mouth as soon as she said that. Her eyes on Mia betrayed guilt.
Maya was the adopted child while Mia was the true Ms. Lane!
What in the world!
Mia noticed Sharon’s gaze, but she herself couldn’t register the situation just yet.
What was going on here?
Why were her brothers Maya’s family?
Her brothers were from the rich Lane family from Nord City and she was the true Ms. Lane?
The bombshell blew her mind. She looked at Dominic. “What’s going on?”
He coughed out of guilt. “Mia, sorry. We lied to you.”
She couldn’t comprehend it. “Why? Because of Maya?”
Connor shook his head. “No. Why would it be because of Maya? It was because we were repulsive to you. You didn’t like rich people that much, so we were worried about causing a misunderstanding. We decided not to reveal our true identities so that you’ll open up to us first.”
Claude added on. “Mia, we’ve always felt guilty for finding you only recently. We were afraid that you would get mad at us for the long search considering how wealthy we are. That was why we didn’t dare to reveal ourselves. Sorry for making you suffer.”
Jason nodded. “That’s right. We were afraid that you wouldn’t want us.”
“Why would I do that?” Mia found it hilarious.
They were her brothers and her family.
But she didn’t expect them to be this rich. They were that famous Lane family from Nord City!
Her mind was blown away as she realized that she was actually the true Ms. Lane.
Liam, who felt equally guilty, explained, “Don’t be angry, Mia. We actually weren’t planning to keep you in the dark this long.”
While Mia was speechless, Maya sprang to her feet upon hearing that. “What do you mean by that? So you came to Bern City to look for Mia in the first place, didn’t you? Were you planning to drive me away with money later on so that she could reclaim her place?”
Maya finally realized that the Lanes had found Mia a long time ago.
Maya was the only person out of the loop!
Liam responded indifferently. “Yes. Do you have an opinion about it, fake princess?”
Mia looked at Maya upon Liam’s words, puzzled.
Mava was the take princess?
The term exasperated Maya so much that she screamed, “So what if I do? I am part of the family and I have the right to voice out my opinion. How could you keep me in the dark? I’m not a fake princess!”
Maya couldn’t accept reality. If only she had found Mia sooner, she would’ve been able to deal with Mia instead of becoming the passive party.
Dominic said coldly. “You’re not one of us. You’re aware of this from the day you left the orphanage. Your grew greediel, coveting things that aren’t rightfully yours.”
“Things that aren’t rightfully mine? I am Ms. Lane too! What part do I lack compared to Mia? I’ve contributed so much to the family for so many years. But you want to drive me away as soon as Mia returns? Not a chancel”
Maya was losing it, feeling that the whole world was treating her unfairly.
Dominic frowned. “What do you want?”
She sneered and turned back, pointing at Timothy. “I want to marry into the Barrett family and become
Mrs. Barrett.”
