Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen ) novel Chapter 748

Were the Chapmans on the brink of bankruptcy?

Kaleb nodded grimly. "Yes, that's right. I was just informed about it as well. They've kept this a secret from the public."

Sharon was upset. In this case, they'd be delusional if they thought she would let Nikki marry Timothy under that circumstances.

She turned toward the guests. "Everyone, please dig in. My apologies for the commotion earlier."

Everyone began settling into the joyous atmosphere once again, as if they'd forgotten about the Chapmans' predicament earlier.

Luna watched Sharon in exasperation. Wasn't she supposed to hold Mia accountable? Why did she refrain from discussing the Chapmans?

What did Kaleb tell her? Was there really something wrong with the Chapmans' business?

Luna was defiant. She clearly could've seized this opportunity to coax Sharon into punishing Mia, yet her plans had proved futile. She couldn't help but curse inwardly.

Meanwhile, Mia noticed how Sharon cozied up to the other socialites. She seemed to have forgotten that she had deliberately invited Amelia and Nikki over as guests.

Mia glanced up at Timothy. "She's a good fit for a theater role." She marveled at how quickly Sharon could change her demeanor.

Timothy replied calmly, "These should be enough. Let's go." He took her plate, and both of them settled on their seats.

Just then, Luna produced a gift box. "Happy birthday, Mrs. Barrett. I hope you'll like it."

Sharon glanced over at the gold embroidered fan in the box. It looked exquisite, so she began bragging, "What a beautiful necklace! It will perfectly match with the customized gown I ordered last month."

"I embroidered it on my own. I hope you'll like it."

A woman beside Luna chimed in instantly, "Our fashion magazine invited a renowned embroiderer to our show, and Ms. Maynard personally asked her to coach her."
