Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen ) novel Chapter 655

Timothy's heart sank the moment he heard Mia's answer. If the mole had always been there, then she wasn't Mia Bowen!

"Why the question?" Her eyes didn't leave him.

He filled his wine glass and downed it all.

Noticing the shift in his mood, she wondered if the mole was ugly on her.

He placed the wine glass down, and a drop of wine trickled from his lips to his clothes.

It took a fleeting second for him to become a deflated balloon.

His Adam's apple bobbed. "Let's talk business, Ms. Monalize. The reishi mushrooms, what should I do to get them?"

It was Timothy's attempt to switch the topic. Mia realized that he didn't want to talk about the previous topic anymore. Suppressing the curiosity in her, she beamed. "That depends on what you can offer."

The glint in his eyes dimmed. "Tell me your terms."

"How am I supposed to do that when I have everything? Besides, you're the one making a request. You should think about how to make me happy so that I'm willing to give them to you."

Timothy watched her. "I don't know how to do that."

She snorted. "I'm not buying that. Don't tell me you have never tried to make your girlfriend or wife happy before Haven't you been in a relationship before?"

He stared at the face that looked so much like Mia Bowen. "I've been single for many years."

"You've been single for many years," she repeated. "Which means you have been in a relationship. Have you not tried to make your partner happy before?"

Memories from four years ago struck him. "I did, but I failed."

That answer didn't surprise her—not one bit. He didn't seem like the romantic guy to let his partner have it their way.

He was rich and handsome. And based on those labels alone, Mia reckoned the ladies were always the ones swooning over him.
