Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen ) novel Chapter 568

"Speaking ill of others behind their backs isn't very kind, is it?"

Mia's back tensed as she turned to see Nicholas in the doorway, leaning against the frame with a distant look in his eyes.

She hadn't expected to be caught like that.

Managing a forced smile, she said, "I-I didn't mean it that way. What I was trying to say is that doctors with bad tempers are often more skilled."

"Mia, you don't have to worry, that's just his personality," Connor said, patting her shoulder.

"By the way, Mia, why don't we go out for dinner tonight? It's not often that Nick comes all the way to Bern City for a week on business just to visit me. I think it's only fair to treat him to a meal."

"Seriously, dude. When you heard about your sister, didn't you also make a special trip just to see what she looks like?"

Mia blinked in disbelief; she hadn't realized Connor had gone out of his way to come and see her.

The next moment, Connor proudly exclaimed, "Isn't my sister beautiful and adorable? Those without sisters can only envy us for a lifetime, hahaha!"

The corner of Mia's lips twitched. Why did Connor seem so annoying right now? Didn't he notice the scalpel in Nicholas' hand just now?

Indeed, the atmosphere around them seemed to grow noticeably tense.

As Nicholas put on his mask, he muttered a disdainful "boring", before swiftly departing.

Watching Nicholas' retreating figure, Mia asked, "Connor, is it appropriate to speak like that?"

"It's fine, we've been talking like this since we were kids."

Nonetheless, Mia quietly resolved not to allow Nicholas to examine her next time, fearing his potential retaliation.

At that moment, she remembered Laura's earlier phone call. "Hey, Connor, didn't Grandma Laura just get discharged from the hospital? She's thinking of hosting a small party to cheer things up and would like to invite you guys."

Connor's expression became complicated. "Are you sure Grandma Laura wants to invite all of us? Isn't she worried that your brothers and I will beat Timothy up?"
