Timothy shot a glance at Caleb. "I can handle these minor issues myself." "I understand. I just thought it would be amusing to have Mia witness the spectacle, you know? It'll be quite satisfying, and it would be a shif she missed out. And with Mia's touch, the Bowens might squirm a little more." Soon, Mia's phone rang with Caleb's call.
Glancing at the caller ID, she answered, "What's up?" "Have you forgotten what today is? It's tto step out and enjoy the show," Caleb reminded her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMia, of course, was well aware of what Caleb meant by "enjoy the show." Nonetheless, she found herself taken aback. "Wasn't the partnership with the Bowen family supposed to be terminated? Why are they still proceeding with the signing ceremony?" Mia had assumed that the ceremony would no longer take place.
At first, she felt a twinge of disappointment, realizing she might miss witnessing the Bowen family's embarrassment firsthand. Yet, as it unfolded, she was in for a surprise! Caleb elaborated, "Initially, the plan was to scrap the signing ceremony altogether, but you know how stubborn Tim's uncle can be. So, Tim has decided to unveil everything during the ceremony itself. Might as well give everyone a taste of reality, right?" "Ah, I understand now. Well, it looks like there'll be sentertainment after all," Mia remarked.
"So, are you joining us to witness the Bowen family's downfall?" A grin spread across Mia's face as she replied, "Absolutely, I wouldn't miss it for the world." Indeed, the opportunity to see the Bowens being exposed was too enticing to pass up.
After all, there were currently widespread speculations about the Bowen family joining forces with the Barrett family to collectively suppress the Lanes.
If Mia were to personally attend and witness the confrontation today, it would undoubtedly serve as compelling evidence.
After ending the call, Mia swiveled her chair toward Peyton. "I need to step out for a bit. Please, cancel this afternoon's meeting." Peyton inquired, "Ms. Mia, are you going to the Bowen family's signing ceremony?" "Indeed, I am. How could I possibly resist such a spectacle?" With that, Mia grabbed her bag and exited the office. She was determined to be present to witness the Bowen family's facade crumble firsthand! How dare they brazenly spread unfounded rumors about a potential marriage agreement involving her! After all, Mia wasn't a fool. Why would she ever entertain the idea of being interested in anyone from the Bowen family? Without delay, Mia headed straight to the hotel where the signings conveniently located in the central business district, just a brief ten-minute drive away. Upon reaching the venue, Mia couldn't help but notice a group of reporters stationed outside.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was evident that the Bowen family had spared no effort in orchestrating this event! As soon as Mia arrived, Connie approached with a smug demeanor. "Mia, why did you calone? Where's your penniless bodyguard?" "He hasn't arrived yet; he's still on his way," Mia replied.
Not here yet? Mia, are you trying to nake excuses out of guilt? I mean, sn't he supposed to be your Sdyguard? How could he not be by 'our side? It's pretty obvious you're eeling guilty," Connie retorted.
Mia responded solemnly, "Given his role as the CEO of Barrett Group, he's buried in work. He can't constantly be by my side as a bodyguard." With a smug expression, Lewis joined the conversation. "Mia, it seems like you're still resorting to lies, huh? Didn't your claim he was the CEO of the Barrett Group? Luckily, Mr. Gomez is here today. Maybe you should call him over and confront him directly!" Connie added, "Exactly, Mia's just trying to cover up her guilt.' Taken aback, Mia asked, "Wait, did you say Mr. Gomez is here?" But that didn't make sense. Wasn't Caleb supposed to accompany Timothy? They should still be on their way.
Glancing at the young man beside him, Lewis spoke up, "That's correct. Allowto introduce you. This is Mr. Gomez!" "You're tellinghe's Caleb?" "Yes, that's him. Caleb, also known as Mr. Gomez. Mia, it's tto open your eyes and see clearly. The truth is undeniable, and falsehoods won't endure," Lewis said confidently.
As Mia observed the young man standing beside Lewis, her disbelief was evident. Was he supposed to be Caleb? Could there be ssort of misunderstanding? It appeared that someone in Nord City was impersonating Caleb, attempting to deceive people.
