"Why have you been keeping your identity a secret, Ms. Lane? Is there a reason?" someone asked.
Hearing that, Timothy stared at Mia, who was holding a microphone.
She was standing on the stage in a simple evening dress. The stage light shone on her, and she looked like she was the bright moon hanging in the night sky.
"What do you think, Tim? Are you losing confidence now that Mia has made exceptional achievements?"
Hearing Caleb's voice, Timothy looked over his shoulder. "What brought you here?"
"I heard that the banquet was super entertaining, so I rushed over. I didn't want to miss the show. I heard some women got into a fight too. But I guess it's over. What a shame. If I had known that, I would've come along with you."
Timothy was rendered speechless.
Caleb continued, "But I totally didn't expect Mia to be the real owner of Aide Castle. In this case, it's not entirely impossible for you to work with Aide Castle."
"Why do you say so? I think we'll get the deal for sure."
Caleb exclaimed, "On what grounds, Tim?"
Just who had boosted Timothy's confidence?
Mia had six brothers backing her up!
Timothy rolled up his sleeves calmly. "Connection is important when it comes to joint ventures. Think about the relationship I have with Mia. Do you think there would be a problem?"
Caleb retorted cruelly, "Do I have to remind you that you haven't even won her heart back yet? Stop dreaming about working with her in business. I'm telling you, you don't stand a chance!"
"Shut up. Enough." Timothy didn't want to continue the conversation with Caleb any longer.
He lifted his head, refocusing his gaze on Mia on the stage.
