Chapter 1143 "Mia, just name it, and if it's within my means, consider it done for you." "So, you're planning to send Luna abroad, right? Maybe consider letting her flee to Bern City. She might seek shelter with Timothy's family there." "Mia, I'm not entirely clear on your strategy here. What if Luna does manage to garner support o" "The trap has been set with the information I fed Luna earlier. She'll likely try to return to confirm my words." Unbeknownst to Jasmine, Mia was eagerly anticipating Luna's return to Bern City
Fuelled by the urgency to unravel the events of years past and shed light on Laura's injury, Mia had quietly awaited this moment.
If Luna was indeed responsible, Mia would ensure she faced the consequences.
As Jasmine mulled over Mia's plan, she found herself nodding in agreement.
"Sure, I'll handle it. But given Asher's ties to the Barrett family, do you think Mr. Barrett might step in?" jasmine couldn't shake off her uncertainty, particularly after noticing Luna's confident demeanor earlier.

The possibility of Timothy's intervention loomed large, threatening to unravel her carefully laid plans.

Timothy won't interfere. However, when it comes to Asher, I can't guarantee he won't attempt to negotiate with your family." "Asher is merely a descendant of an illegitimate child within the Barrett family. Timothy's stance should align with mine," Jasmine stated confidently.
Listening to Jasmine's seemingly reasonable assertion, Mia fell momentarily silent.
Though the situation appeared logical, it posed a dilemma for Mia. Timothy, like Asher, wasn't from the main Barrett family lineage, being born out of wedlock himself.
This fact left Mia questioning Timothy's intentions toward Asher.
\ Sensing Jasmine's apprehension, Mia offered a reassuring smile. "There's no need to worry. As long as Asher stays out of trouble, I believe Timothy won't intervene excessively." Jasmine nodded in understanding. "As long as Asher behaves, I won't take any drastic measures. I wouldn't stoop so low as to harm a child." Jasmine understood that the events of the day were influenced by Luna's actions and her father's traditional favoritism toward sons over daughters.
Since Asher's birth, he had been ensnared in Luna's manipulations, a situation that was truly heart

"Got it. Thanks for the heads-up," Mia replied before turning off her phone. It appeared Luna had taken the bait.
After careful consideration, Mia finally reached out to Timothy with a message. "Luna has fled to Bern City. | mentioned to her earlier that Grandma Laura had regained consciousness, so
she likely went to verify it." With her message sent, Mia anxiously anticipated Timothy's response.
Shortly thereafter, Timothy's call came through.
"Timothy, how do you plan to handle this?" Mia asked, her voice tense.
Timothy's reply was strained.
"Grandma has indeed regained consciousness." "What? Is she really awake? This isn't a joke, is it?"
