Timothy wasn't trying to be secretive at all. He placed the project proposal on top of the pile of documents.
"I plan to, but they haven't responded so far. Since I'm visiting Nord City this time, I intend to meet with their boss."
"Oh, so you're planning to meet their boss. But I heard that the owner of Aide Castle seems quite mysterious. You might not be able to meet him."
Mia didn't plan to reveal her identity. She had been managing her businesses behind the scenes for years at the behest of Dominic, after all. His intention to conceal her identity was to prevent the Barretts from finding her since he didn't want them to stress her out again, indirectly exacerbating her condition.
However, she no longer needed to conceal her identity since Timothy already knew who she was. Nonetheless, she still didn't intend to blow her cover easily.
Timothy turned toward her. "Do you know the owner of Aide Castle?"
"Hey, how could I possibly know? Maybe Dominic knows him. Since I'm pretty well-off, I've been lazing around at home lately. The first thing that pops up in my mind every time I wake up is figuring out where to spend my money."
"Good. You're living the dream life."
"Yeah, I know. Not everyone has brothers who dote on them like I do. They're incredibly talented as well! They just love sending me money!"
A smile spread across Timothy's face when he saw her bragging. "If you could help me get in touch with the owner of Aide Castle, I can give you a commission."
