Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen ) novel Chapter 139

Chapter 139 

Sensing the ball of rage forming in Liam, Mia grabbed his hand to stop him. “Calm down!” 

He glared at Maya, mocking, “Whose credit is it that you’re able to come this far? Know your place!” 

Maya’s smile fell, fearing the possibility that he revealed she was adopted. 

Only a few in Nord City knew of it. No one in Bern City was aware of it. 

That was why she loved visiting Bern City, where no one knew her true origin. 

The rich people in Nord City looked down on her solely because she was adopted. 

It served the cause for Maya’s resolution to marry an all–rounded man with powerful background. 

Timothy was the candidate she had her eyes on. 

Once she earned the title of Mrs. Barrett, no one in Nord City would give her contemptuous looks! 

Maya zipped her lips immediately, and Mia found the situation off. 

Considering the fact that Liam was disguising himself as that actor, wouldn’t Liam’s attitude tarnish that 

actor’s reputation? 

“Mia, take it. You can buy anything you fancy.” The bidding number was shoved into her hands. 

She didn’t know how to react, but she could feel Liam’s protectiveness. 

Timothy’s gaze landed on her bidding number, and his lips thinned. 

He threw his bidding number aside. 

The auction officially began. 

Liam’s voice sounded. “Mia, what do you think about that antique vase? Should we put it in our living room?” 

Mia showed hesitation. “It doesn’t complement the interior design, though.” 

“Mia, what do you think about this painting? Don’t you think it’ll look nice in Aunt Patricia’s room?“: 

“Mia, look at that necklace. Isn’t it beautiful?” 

Her eyes glanced at the picture briefly. “It is.” 

“Mia, let’s bid for that necklace later. Enjoy yourself. Tell me if you take a liking to something.” 

Timothy, sitting next to them, loosened his tie due to the rising heat as his ears jarred with Liam’s voice. 

Timothy thought that it was a waste of time coming for this auction. 

His eyes stared at the painting presented onstage. After Liam’s bid, Timothy followed suit by raising his 

number. 

Mia shot a surprised glimpse at Timothy, wondering what he was up to. 

+15 BONOS 

Liam snorted and raised the bid. “200 thousand.” 

“250 thousand,” Timothy offered calmly. 

Mia had a bad feeling about this. As the trepidation hinted, Liam raised the bid to 300 thousand dollars, only to have Timothy add another 50 thousand dollars. 

She wondered, “Are they challenging each other?” 

Maya noticed the competitive silent battle as well, glancing at Mia. 

Discomfort settled in Maya’s heart as she guessed the reason behind Timothy’s actions–was it because of Mia? 

It didn’t take long before the bid went up to 500 thousand dollars, which exceeded the value of the painting itself.
