Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen ) novel Chapter 46

Chapter 46 

Shelly sighed. “Man, I’m so jealous that you have a brother who dotes on you so much.” 

Maya smiled happily. “He really does. He’s always worrying that I push myself too hard and that others will bully me.” 

After expressing her envy again, Shelly turned to look at Mia. “What are you still doing here? Don’t tell me you think you’ll have a chance at winning something. Anyone with the slightest brains would’ve already left.” 

Mia didn’t respond to that. She noticed Timothy was looking at her with a hint of appraisal. She asked, “Why should I leave when the ceremony isn’t over yet?” 

Shelly snorted. “I suppose that makes sense. It’s a rare occasion for you to be able to attend high–end functions like this. Remember to take a few more photos so you can share them on your Instagram, or else you won’t have any chances in 

the future. 

“You’re nothing now that you’ve left the Barrett family. Isn’t that so, Timothy?” 

Timothy frowned. “No one will think you’re a mute if you keep your mouth shut, Shelly.” 

Shelly wanted to say something after being humiliated, but Maya stopped her and surreptitiously shook her head. Maya had to keep Shelly in check–she truly was a fool of a teammate! 

Soon, the chief coordinator of the competition walked on stage. “I apologize, but there’s been a slight error in the placing. Allow me to announce the new results- the first–place winner should be Ms. Mia Bowen.” 

Mia was dumbfounded when she heard this. Why was she suddenly in first place? 

This change left the crowd in whispers. Maya was also caught off guard by the chief coordinator’s sudden announcement. Hadn’t she left instructions to announce a special prize for Mia? Why was she suddenly the first–place winner? 

The original first–place winner, Wilhelmina, stood up indignantly. “What gives? This isn’t fair!” 

Shelly looked at Maya. “What’s going on, Maya? How can Mia possibly be in first place?” 

Maya didn’t look too pleased. “I don’t know.“‘ 

+15 BONUS 

What the hell was wrong with the chief coordinator? Maya called the chief coordinator, but it went unanswered. As she watched the chief coordinator on stage, an ominous feeling washed over her. 

The chief coordinator said calmly, “There was a mistake in the calculation of the final scores. Ms. Mia Bowen should be in first place; she shouldn’t have been eliminated.” 

Wilhelmina still refused to accept this. “What makes you think your 

announcement is final? We want to see the actual scores for each design!” 

Maya shot to her feet when she heard that. She looked at Wilhelmina and said, There’s absolutely no issue with our scoring. Something else must’ve gone wrong in the process.” 

There was no way she could allow the designs to be revealed. Wouldn’t her lies be exposed? 

But in the next second, the screen behind the chief coordinator lit up to show the designs and their respective scores. “Look closely at these designs, everyone. They’ve been arranged in order, and the names of the designers are clearly stated.
