"Well... I've never met the owner before," Shelly said.
Mia burst into laughter. "You've never met the owner before, and yet you dare to talk so boldly?"
Shelly refused to be at a disadvantage and promptly responded, "But I'll be able to see him soon. Our two families are about to cooperate, and we'll surely meet frequently in the future."
"Who told you that Aide Castle will definitely cooperate with the Barrett family?"
"I am sure of it. We came to Nord City for this collaboration. Isn't that right, Aunt Sharon?"
Sharon nodded confidently. "Indeed, Ms. Lane, whether we choose to collaborate with the owner or not, your approval alone doesn't hold any weight."
Mia's eyes were sharp as she declared, "I have the final say in choosing who Aide Castle will collaborate with, and your input is irrelevant."
Sharon's expression froze instantly. "How arrogant!"
"I can't help it. As the owner, I have the final decision on all of Aide Castle Hotel's collaborations. Besides the Barrett family, we have many other great partners among our guests here today."
Mia emanated a completely different aura, speaking with a superior attitude. She was no longer the gentle young lady she was earlier. Sharon felt somewhat embarrassed.
Shelly shouted, "Mia, stop lying! Just because you claimed to be the owner of Aide Castle, it doesn't mean you own it!"
