Ch. 1081..1090

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 1081-When Mia saw Shelly approaching Luna, she was slightly surprised. It felt as if a great show was about to unfold.

Meanwhile, Jasmine still felt very uncomfortable about Luna's quick dress change. Mia gently squeezed Jasmine's hand and said, "Perhaps we'll be able to witness something good happen later." However, Jasmine only wore a surprised expression, revealing her uncertainty about the situation.

"Luna was with the Barrett family for five years. You should be familiar with Shelly's personality too. She would likely bully, mistreat, and look down on Luna," Mia said.

Based on Mia's understanding of Shelly, Luna, whom she had previously looked down upon, had now transformed. Shelly harbored jealousy in her heart, and she might do something unexpectedly. Luna proudly changed into her new dress and emerged, ready to show off in front of Jasmine. After all, Raymond had arranged an assistant for her and prepared a change of clothes, which she didn't expect to come in handy. Unexpectedly, this idiot Shelly also showed up at today's banquet.

What a coincidence. It seemed that God was still favoring her. When she made a public appearance today, she actually met the Barretts.

Luna looked at Shelly and said with a condescending tone, "Yes, it's me. Long time no see."

Her last encounter with the Barretts occurred at a charity dinner hosted by Jasmine. That was when she spotted Sharon and wanted to show off, but she never anticipated being driven away by the bodyguard. But things have changed now. Raymond had accepted her, and she was officially Raymond's daughter.

She had always been looked down upon by the Barrett family, especially by Shelly. Although Shelly was undeniably a parasite in the Barrett family she always presented herself as more superior than Luna and looked down on her. Content

But now, the tables have turned. She had become Raymond's daughter, while Shelly, the foolish one, remained the good-for-nothing eldest daughter of the Barrett family.

At that moment, Shelly's sense of superiority set in.

Shelly gazed at Luna's attire in astonishment. "This is the new Vior dress. It's not cheap. How did you manage to afford such an expensive dress?"

Luna confidently straightened her

dress and delicately brushed her fingers across her branded ring. She boasted. These are just simple garments and accessories. There's nothing I can't afford. I accidentally dirtied my dress a moment ago, but I immediately changed into a new

one."

Upon hearing that, Shelly was immediately overcome with a sense of discontent. After all, Luna had shamelessly stayed with the Barrett family in the past, solely because she desired to marry Timothy and become his wife.

At that time, she could see that Luna wasn't very well-liked by anyone. As a result, she didn't consider the possibility of Luna marrying into the Barrett family. She didn't take Luna seriously and instead relished the idea that Luna was constantly trying to please her. Nevertheless, she had. not expected Luna to be released from prison, let alone thrive. Content

Shelly bluntly stated, "Aren't you just a mistress? And an arrogant one too! Back then, you claimed to not care about money, and you acted aloof. Yet, your true colors are finally showing now." "Shelly, I strongly advise you to watch your language. Do you honestly believe that after all this time, I would still be lacking in manners like you?"

"Who lacks manners? I'm the eldest daughter of the Barrett family. With your background, you're not worthy of being compared to me. What qualifications do you have to teach me a lesson?" Shelly had always harbored a sense of superiority over Luna. Hence, being lectured by Luna now was intolerable for her.

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 1082-Furthermore, Shelly attended the banquet today for a blind date. Several women from prominent families had already spoken highly of her and they even hoped to arrange a match with their sons. If she married into a wealthy family in Nord City, she would become a wealthy wife herself.

Yet, Luna was just a poor woman with no financial resources and relied on men to achieve success. She wondered what qualifications Luna had to lecture her.

When Luna heard those words, her expression suddenly transformed into one of anger. She gritted her teeth and declared, "Stop looking down on me. I've found my family now. I'm no longer the person you used to bully."

"Found your family? Are you under the impression that this is some kind of television series? Do you truly believe that Mia somehow managed to find her long-lost family and became the esteemed daughter of the Lane family? And you, do you really think you've also found your family and have now ascended as the cherished daughter of a wealthy family? Stop daydreaming!"

After Shelly's remarks, she turned to Sharon and said, "Aunt Sharon, come here and see this. Luna claimed that she found her family and insisted that my status is not comparable to hers. What a joke! That's the funniest thing I've heard all year."

Luna, whom she had always looked down on, was acting so condescendingly. She had absolutely no right to behave in such a manner.

Sharon came over after hearing the noise, her surprise evident as she looked at Luna. She had heard about the relationship between Luna and Raymond before. It was because of Raymond that Luna was able to get out of prison.

Ever since their encounter at Jasmine's party, Sharon couldn't shake the suspicion that Luna might be Raymond's mistress. However, after a conversation with some well-respected ladies earlier, she discovered that Luna was actually Raymond's illegitimate daughter.

Despite Raymond's claim that Luna was the daughter of an old friend whom he took in and treated as his own, only few were convinced of that claim. In fact, this was the common practice among affluent families of treating illegitimate children in such a manner.

However, Sharon couldn't embarrass Raymond, so she calmly stated, "Shelly, it's important to speak with politeness. You shouldn't raise your voice like that."

Despite her dislike for Luna as an illegitimate daughter, Raymond being present today compelled her to show him some respect.

Shelly was scolded and she

suddenly felt a surge of anger. "Aunt Sharon, I performed exceptionally well just now, but now I'm facing Luna. don't need to be nice to her. She must have pulled some strings to attend today's event. Her sugar daddy must be quite capable."

Inet

"Shut up, Shelly, It's improper to say such things, Sharon considered Shelly to be a complete idiot. If Shelly was to really go on a blind date today, her future marriagez prospects might be jeopardized if her poor behavior were to be discovered.

"Aunt Sharon, why are you yelling at me? Luna has clearly caused you so much harm before, but you have forgotten so quickly. Without her, how could you have been sentenced to probation?" Sharon's expression soured even more. If she had not been aware of Luna being Raymond's illegitimate daughter, she would not have shown any kindness to Luna now. Instantly, Luna expressed her anger and said, "I'm the one who was implicated, okay? That had nothing to do with me, yet I ended up in prison. It was completely unfair."

"It was completely fair. You're just jealous of Mia and Timothy's relationship. You were trying to stop Mia from seeing Timothy by coming up with those bad ideas," Shelly retorted. Mia strode over and asked coldly, "Is that the case?"

Shelly was getting more excited as

she spoke. "Yeah. In the end, Timothy didn't fall for Luna's tricks at all. She had been exerting so much effort in the Barrett family for five years, and Timothy didn't even get close to her. It was so embarrassing."

Luna's mind was instantly overwhelmed by an explosion of thoughts. Suddenly, she stepped forward and slapped Shelly.

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 1083-Luna had endured it for five years, but now, she was Raymond's daughter. Shelly, that bitch, dared to humiliate herself in this way. She couldn't bear it any further.

After being slapped, Shelly was shocked. She covered her face and exclaimed, "How dare you slap me?"

Sharon, standing next to her, gently grasped Shelly's arm. "Calm down. Consider the event today. Don't act impulsively."

Shelly shielded her face and said with a mix of despair and hope, "Aunt Sharon, I was slapped. Do you still expect me to endure it? You just stood by and watched her bully us. We're the Barretts!"

Shelly's loud outburst immediately captured everyone's attention. The unexpected slap at the banquet prompted many people to cast their gaze in their direction.

Mia was taken aback when Luna didn't hesitate to slap Shelly directly. It was evident that Shelly had been mocking Luna within the Barrett family during those five years, which explained Luna's strong reaction Mia winked at Jasmine, signaling her to begin the performance.

Jasmine smiled and promptly stepped forward, standing beside Luna. "How could you possibly slap someone at a banquet? Please apologize to Ms. Barrett immediately."

Luna exclaimed in disbelief, "Why should I apologize to Shelly? She humiliated me with her crude words. I only reacted when I could no longer bear it. You have no idea how I suffered during those five years with the Barrett family. Despite everything, she still has the audacity to continue mocking me like this. Why should I have to endure it?"

Luna finished speaking in one breath, and her heart suddenly filled with joy. She glanced at Shelly, who was slapped by her, and felt no remorse for what she had done. She had been waiting for this moment for so long, and today she finally released all her pent-up anger.

At that moment, Raymond's voice came through. "Luna, what are you doing? Apologize to Ms. Barrett now. She's a guest. How could you slap her?"

As Luna turned around, she began to

slowly regain control of her

rationality when she saw Raymond

However, her unhappiness

persisted. "Dad, I don't want to

apologize to her. Shelly used to bully

me a lot in the past." Content

When Shelly heard her calling Raymond "Dad", she was utterly shocked. "You called Mr. Shelbert 'Dad?' But isn't your father a general worker who passed away long ago?"

Luna's expression abruptly shifted. Just as she was on the verge of explaining, Jasmine interrupted eagerly and said, "What did Luna's father used to do? I'm really curious."

"He's a security captain who worked at a shopping mall." After Shelly spoke, Luna's face turned pale. She was so embarrassed that she wanted to dig a hole and disappear inside it.

Her origin was the one thing she desperately wanted to keep hidden. She yearned to establish a new identity and join the ranks of the affluent, but she never anticipated that the bitch, Shelly, would

expose

heringlorious past so brazenly. It

was utterly hateful! Content belongs

Luna felt the weight of everyone's scrutinizing stares on her and was overcome with acute embarrassment. Instinctively, she turned to Raymond, silently pleading for his support.

However, Raymond couldn't help but

frown as well. He couldn't help but question whether Luna's mother had actually married a security guard in the end. At that moment, Raymond couldn't shake off the feeling that his status had been somewhat diminished.

Jasmine glanced at Raymond and uttered, "Dad, considering that Luna's father was a security guard, it seems like you and him were destined to have a connection."

Someone nearby also said, "Yes, Mr. Shelbert. Why haven't we heard you mention such an old friend before? Is there a story between you two?"

Raymond hesitated to respond, feeling somewhat uneasy. What sort of encounter would he have with an unimportant security guard?

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 1084-That insignificant security guard did not deserve to be compared to him.

Mia couldn't resist the urge to applaud when she witnessed the scene. She wished to have some popcorn to enjoy the show with.

She was aware that when Shelly appeared, it would be quite a spectacle. However, she never anticipated that Shelly would exceed her expectations.

The conflict between Shelly and Luna had been building for quite some time. Given Shelly's temperament, it was only a matter of time before she stirred up trouble. Luna, having endured relentless bullying in the past, was not one to stand idly by.

When two determined women came together, trouble was certain to follow.

At this critical moment, Sharon stepped in to defuse the situation. "This is Mr. Shelbert's personal affair. After all, Mr. Shelbert has always been inclined to do good deeds. The bond between gentlemen is always unique, so it's understandable that he didn't bring it up."

Raymond hesitantly nodded as he replied, "Mrs. Barrett expressed everything I intended to convey. It's accurate that I haven't met him many times, but our relationship has always been positive."

Sharon continued, "It was Shelly's fault just now. She shouldn't have caused a scene here. Shelly, please apologize to Luna right away."

"Why should I apologize? Luna hit me first. Why should I apologize to the person who hit me first?"

Jasmine seized the opportunity to escalate the situation. "Luna, it was wrong of you to hit others first. You owe Ms. Barrett an apology. If she decides to seek legal counsel, you could find yourself in serious trouble."

Jasmine was reminding Luna about her criminal record. If Shelly really sought a lawyer, it would only complicate matters further.

Luna still refused to apologize. Raymond frowned and said firmly, "Luna, look at what your sister is teaching you. You should learn from her. This is about understanding the bigger picture. Apologize to Ms. Barrett immediately. The Shelbert family does not have a daughter like you, who goes around hitting people randomly."

Jasmine said with a smile, "Indeed, Dad has instilled in us the importance of being polite since we were young and not resorting to violence."

After the conversation, Mia noticed that Luna was on the verge of losing her mind.

Luna expected Raymond to defend her, but she didn't anticipate that he would make her apologize to Shelly. She felt overwhelmed.

It appeared that Luna was still

struggling to define her own identity

and position. Today was meant to be her moment to shine, but

everything was shattered by Shelly's sudden appearance. Content

Due to Raymond's instruction, Luna had no choice but to utter to Shelly, "I'm sorry."

Shelly's face lit up with a bright smile. Although she felt a little guilty just moments before, she felt gleeful that Luna had actually apologized.

Shelly wanted to make a few more comments, but Sharon discreetly pinched her. Lowering her voice, Sharon said, "That's enough. Be careful, or else next time I won't take you out again." Upon hearing this, Shelley fell silent gloomily. However, she figured that once she married into a wealthy family in Nord City, she wouldn't have to endure Sharon's nonsense any longer. Mia saw that the scene was almost over, so she said, "Everyone, please take your seats first. The banquet will start soon."

Luna harbored a considerable

amount of anger toward Mia and eventually confronted her, saying, "Ms. Lane, your tone in discussing tonight's banquet has been quite unusual from the start. If someone didn't know any better, they might think you were the host."

Shelly, who was standing next to her, remarked, "Yes, Mia just told us the same thing. She mentioned that she's the owner of Aide Castle Hotel."

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 1085-Luna didn't look happy when Shelly spoke up for Mia.

She couldn't simply brush off the recent incident. She had just been on the same side as Shelly.

After those words were spoken, people around them began to discuss among themselves. After all, Aide Castle Hotel had appeared and quickly became a popular high-end hotel in Nord City. Bookings were in high demand, and it soon became the premier venue for the upper class to host banquets.

However, the owner of Aide Castle had always been shrouded in mystery, designing each banquet venue with a flair that never failed to surprise and captivate. With every new theme, they manage to set trends and become the talk of the town. Despite various speculations surrounding the owner's identity, it was known that the Lane family was certainly involved. After all, Aide Castle's initial investment came from Dominic.

Shelly also overheard the conversations of the people around her, and it was clear that everyone was curious about the identity of the owner of Aide Castle.

"I heard that the owner of Aide Castle is a man."

"I've also heard that someone has apparently met the owner of Aide Castle. He's not too young, and he's very kind to others."

Luna's lips curled into a cold smile. "Ms. Lane, if that's the case, then please verify your identity. After all, everyone here holds a certain status. If you're deceiving us, it won't bode well for the Lane family, will it?"

Shelly further fanned the flames by stating, "Mia, your birth determines everything. You were an orphan from a young age and only recently returned to the Lane family. Why did you lie?"

Luna heard Shelly's words and immediately glared at her. Shelly was clearly mocking her on purpose. Mia stood there calmly, unfazed by the situation, and openly accepted everyone's suspicions.

She openly confessed to Shelly and Luna that she was the rightful owner of Aide Castle and had no plans to conceal her identity. Her decision had nothing to do with timing, instead, it stemmed from her refusa to tolerate these women's pretense.

Given their apparent desire to receive a reality check, she graciously gave them the opportunity to have their egos bruised today.

Jasmine remained silent, attentively observing the show from the sidelines. She was convinced that Mia was the rightful owner of Aide Castle. Thus, she considered Shelly and Luna mere clowns who deserved to face the consequences.

Raymond looked at Mia in surprise and asked, "Ms. Lane, what's happening? Are you close to the owner of Aide Castle?"

Shelly replied before Mia did and said, "I believe Mia may have met the owner of Aide Castle a few times, but she's not acquainted with the owner at all. Despite the owner's mysterious nature, she still insisted on flaunting and deceiving others. Just earlier, the general manager of Aide Castle came out to greet my Aunt Sharon. At that moment, the general manager did not acknowledge Mia at all. Mia must be lying." Jasmine quickly clarified, "The general manager is just overseeing the shift, and he's new to the team. So it's understandable that he doesn't know who Mia is."

Luna continued, "It's amusing, isn't it? Nowadays, every general manager knows what their boss looks like. Would anyone believe him if he said otherwise?"

Shelley immediately agreed, saying, "Exactly! Besides, Aide Castle Hotel is going to collaborate with our Barrett family. There's no way we could mistake the identity of the wrong person. Mia is definitely not the owner of Aide Castle."

Witnessing Shelly's unwavering determination, Mia couldn't help but ask with a playful grin, "If you're that confident, have you had the chance to meet the owner of Aide Castle?"

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 1086-"Well... I've never met the owner before," Shelly said.

Mia burst into laughter. "You've never met the owner before, and yet you dare to talk so boldly?"

Shelly refused to be at a disadvantage and promptly responded, "But I'll be able to see him soon. Our two families are about to cooperate, and we'll surely meet frequently in the future." "Who told you that Aide Castle will definitely cooperate with the Barrett family?"

"I am sure of it. We came to Nord City for this collaboration. Isn't that right, Aunt Sharon?"

Sharon nodded confidently. "Indeed, Ms. Lane, whether we choose to collaborate with the owner or not, your approval alone doesn't hold any weight."

Mia's eyes were sharp as she declared, "I have the final say in choosing who Aide Castle will collaborate with, and your input is irrelevant."

Sharon's expression froze instantly. "How arrogant!"

"I can't help it. As the owner, I have the final decision on all of Aide Castle Hotel's collaborations. Besides the Barrett family, we have many other great partners among our guests here today."

Mia emanated a completely different aura, speaking with a superior attitude. She was no longer the gentle young lady she was earlier. Sharon felt somewhat embarrassed.

Shelly shouted, "Mia, stop lying! Just because you claimed to be the owner of Aide Castle, it doesn't mean you own it!"

"Who's the owner of Aide Castle?" As soon as Shelly finished speaking, the crowd swiftly parted, and Timothy entered from outside.

Dressed in a sleek black suit, his striking features stood out in the crowd. As soon as he spotted Mia, Timothy unconsciously made his way toward her.

He certainly didn't expect to encounter Mia at the banquet today. Since the last hacking incident, Sage had deleted his contact completely. That callous boy Sage had shown no mercy to him.

As soon as Timothy appeared, the

scene turned quiet. He positioned himself directly in front of her, his once distant eyes now filled with cautiousness, as if afraid of inadvertently offending Mia. Now, he was extremely careful when facing Mia and the two kids.

Mia stared at Timothy with disdain. She found him utterly unlikable. The Barretts were truly annoying.

Timothy was acutely aware of Mia's

l.n

displeasure, and he immediately began to reflect on the fact that he had not offended her recently, except for the incident last time involving Sage. He wondered if Mia

was still angry.

When Timothy was about to speak, Luna stepped forward and greeted him. "Timothy, it's been quite a while."

As Luna spoke, she adjusted her branded dress and turned her head slightly to reveal her most beautiful profile. She was no longer the ordinary girl she had been before. It

was time for Timothy to see a different side of her. Content

.n

Mia saw Luna's bitchy look and scoffed dismissively. It seemed that old habits die hard. Did Luna truly believe she could win over Timothy in this manner?

It was utterly improbable that Luna was involved with Timothy's brother, though Luna was unaware of this fact for now. Mia calmly folded her arms and narrowed her eyes, looking unconcerned.

Noticing Timothy's lack of response, Luna reached out and took hold of his arm. "Timothy, did you hear me?"

Timothy moved aside and replied coldly, "I'm not familiar with you."

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 1087-Timothy dodged Luna as though he was dodging something filthy and repulsive.

Her features stiffened. "Timothy, I know you're still angry at me."

He frowned. "I don't get angry at outsiders."

At this point, she didn't have the courage to speak to him no matter how much she wanted to get close to him. Mia watched the duo and felt baffled at their interaction. Timothy was acting slightly out of character today.

He lowered his head to look at her. Then, he asked, "Mia, I texted you. Why didn't you reply to me?"

It was like he was whining, and he now had a completely different personality from his aloof character a moment ago.

Her eyes blinked profusely. She was really confused by how Timothy was acting today. "I missed it," she said nonchalantly.

In fact, she left the message on "seen" on purpose.

"Are you still angry at me?" he asked.

"I don't get angry at outsiders."

Timothy was rendered speechless. He had just said the same thing to Luna a moment ago.

Mia's words hurt him, weighing on his heart until they pulled it to the pit of his stomach.

Jasmine, who was enjoying the show, chuckled without a care. She remarked, "Every person has a different destiny, right?"

That was clearly directed at Luna.

After all, Timothy made the same comment to Luna just now.

Furious, Luna clenched her fists. She was livid at the fact that Jasmine, the bitch, had just made fun of her.

Once Luna inherited the Shelbert family's assets, she swore she would teach Jasmine a lesson and drive Jasmine and her mother out of the house.

Since Asher was the heir of the Shelbert family, Jasmine and her mother should be banished to the streets.

Shelly couldn't help the urge to join

the fun and she said, "I know, right? I

she

know there was someone who tried to stay with us shamelessly back then. She stooped so low that I. couldn't see her. Now that she holds a little power, she's all puffed up and looks down upon everyone. Any change in life will never change that petty character of hers. Timothy will never fall for this kind of woman."

Luna almost lost it when she heard that.

Although she didn't have the nerves to lash back at Jasmine, she wasn't patient enough to be nice toward Shelly. "Ms. Barrett, I did so many things for your family while we were

living together.

"I didn't contribute anything worth praising, but I proved my worth the hard way. Now that I've finally found a lovely family, you can't just make fun of me like this.

"Everyone in Bern City knows that

you're a good-for-nothing who lived off your family since young. Previously, you were also made to pay a huge compensation after someone reported you for wearing imitations."

Shelly huffed. "Who are you calling a good-for-nothing? I dare you to say that again."

She was livid. She had joined today's banquet to meet a potential spouse.

Now that Luna exposed Shelly, how was she supposed to hold her head high or marry a rich man in Nord City?

"Did I say anything wrong? Ladies and gentlemen, if you don't believe me, you can search for it online. It made the entertainment headlines," Luna said, her tone laced with mockery.

Shelly noticed that some people began searching it up online. One of them was a rich lady she had just engaged with. Things were looking bad!

Anger got the best of Shelly as she grabbed Luna's hair and slapped her.

She blamed it all on Luna. "How dare you say that in public, you bitch?" Luna shrieked, "Shelly Barrett, you crazy witch! Let me go!"

 

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 1088-"How dare you, Luna Maynard! We basically fed you when you lived with us. Don't think that you've become the main character of a rags-to-riches story. You're not qualified for that," Shelly barked. That humiliation was the final blow. Unable to take it anymore, Luna fought back. "Who do you think you are? You're a rich lady who wore imitations. You're just a joke in Bern City. There wasn't a place for you there and so you came here. Don't act all mighty and graceful. Look at you now. Getting all riled up just because I told everyone your true colors."

Shelly retorted, "Who's all riled up? I'm just trying to teach you a lesson so that you won't run your mouth however you wish, bitch!"

"Who are you calling a bitch? You're the bitch!"

The two women went from pulling each other by the hair to engaging in a brawl.

Mia covered her face at the turn of events. Just when would this end?

They were calling each other out verbally just one second ago. Then, Luna slapped Shelly! Now, the situation has escalated to a physical fight!

The scene was tense yet awkward at the same time.

After all, having two beautiful ladies fight wasn't a sight to behold.

With one hand, one can count all the moves they used to attack each other.

Their hair was a mess from all the pulling.

Sharon was triggered and she exclaimed, "Stop right there, Shelly Barrett! Did you hear me? Stop!"

Sharon's plan was ruined because Shelly initiated the fight. Things were going smoothly at first! But now, it has turned into a fiasco.

However, Shelly was so caught up in the moment and she wasn't in the right state of mind to listen to such advice.

She was dogged to teach Luna a lesson!

Meanwhile, Jasmine was enjoying the show to her heart's content.

When noticing Raymond's grim expression, she quickly managed her expression.

Pretentiously, she stepped forward to stop the fight. "Luna, stop fighting. It's not nice fighting here."

Luna couldn't stomach the humiliation from the fight that Shelly started.

If she stopped now, it would be her

loss!

might the fight had s

she

Jasmine wanted to come close to them, but Luna accidentally elbowed her stomach.

Jasmine stumbled backward while hugging her stomach.

Raymond rushed to her. "Jazzy, are you alright?"

She took a deep breath. Her face was as pale as a sheet, but she pretended to be fine. "I'm alright. Luna didn't do it on purpose. I was just trying to stop them. Fighting won't solve the issue, but I don't think Luna will listen." Content

After saying that, she noticed that solemnity weighed heavier between his brows.

She lowered her head to hide her smug smile.

In actuality, she intentionally went up to the ladies so that Luna could accidentally hit her.

Anyone could put on a pitiful act.

It was just that she didn't see the need to use it in front of her family.

However, it was different when it came to Luna, who played foul.

Mia was right—a tooth for a tooth; an eye for an eye.

"Don't go close to them. You might get hurt," Jasmine said as she stopped Raymond.

But he didn't care. He marched

Care.

forward and yanked Luna over,

chiding her, "Enough! Just when will

you stop the ruckus? Don't you feel embarrassed enough? If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have brought you along."

She retorted, reluctant to admit her defeat, "But she started it first! Why can't I fight back?"

Then, he slapped her.

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 1089-Mia was surprised that Raymond actually slapped Luna. But the surprise gave way to tranquility soon after. Raymond was an egoistic man.

Today was his first time bringing Luna along to a banquet, but she ended up causing so much trouble.

Given Raymond's character, he must be very upset with her.

The slap finally pulled Luna back to her senses.

Her heart sank when she noticed how angry he looked.

It was only then did she regain her composure. She began stuttering, "Dad, you...you saw what happened. Shelly hit me first!"

Luna was forced to apologize to Shelly for slapping her. However, it was Shelly who started the fight first!

Luna believed that Shelly was the one to be blamed.

Raymond reprimanded her, "Still, you shouldn't have said that to Ms. Barrett. Is this how you were raised? Are you so incompetent compared to your sister?"

Luna's expression stiffened. When she noticed Jasmine standing over there, she grew even more annoyed.

Jasmine smiled pretentiously and said, "Don't blame her, Dad. It's her first time attending this kind of banquet so she hasn't gotten used to it. It's my fault for not telling her the rules beforehand. Don't blame her Blame it on me."

Raymond remarked, "Look at how mature your sister is. And look at yourself."

She was at a loss for words for a moment until she managed to point her finger at Shelly. "But Shelly hit me first! Didn't you say that the one who started the fight was the one to be blamed? This time, it's her, not me."

"Treating others with tolerance is our virtue to uphold. Ms. Barrett attended this banquet as a guest, but you didn't. Hurry up and apologize to her! Do you hear me?"

His remarks riveted her, leaving her speechless.

She didn't expect her father to say that to her.

From Luna's expression alone, Mia could tell what kind of emotional rollercoaster she was experiencing.

Luna didn't see this coming at all!

Shelly was clearly the one who initiated the fight, but Raymond still insisted that Luna apologize.

Perhaps, Luna held a feeble hope of Raymond standing up for her. But reality played out differently. Not only did he not stand up for her, but he also scolded Luna for being rude and demanded that she apologize.

Well, everything made sense. Luna should never forget how she returned to his side.

She was the unaccepted child.

Raymond wouldn't have treated his daughter this way, and Luna was his illegitimate daughter, after all.

To him, Asher was the one that held value, not Luna.

Luna basically humiliated herself at the banquet. As an egoistic person, he would never take a liking to bis child who had just brought disgrace to his name.

Thus, he had to lower Luna's position in order to save his own image.

And Luna was clever enough to see that.

Jasmine seized the chance to add fuel to the fire. "Luna, Dad's doing t for your sake. As the host, we should be more patient with our guests.

Don't you think so?" Conten

belongs

Luna was so angry that her face turned beet red. Why did they insist that she apologize?

Why? On what grounds?

She already returned to Raymond's side, so why must she still suffer?

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 1090-Touching her stinging scalp, Shelly glared at Luna. "I won't accept her apology. She bullied me! Is everyone from Nord City this arrogant? I'm going to report this to the police. How could the daughter of the mayor hit someone?"

Sharon played along. "If people know that Mr. Shelbert has accepted a god-daughter, and an arrogant one at that, it'll affect the Shelbert family's reputation."

Although Shelly's action was humiliating, the Barrett family could hold their reputation by demanding an apology from Luna by force.

The fact that Raymond treated them with respect proved Shelly's identity was still held in high regard.

Raymond's expression turned grim when he heard that. He turned to Luna and snapped at her. "Hurry up!"

"I won't apologize! Why must I apologize to her? She should be the one apologizing!" Luna choked on her voice.

She covered her face. The voice in her was screaming at her to leave the place. Leaving the scene was her best option, but Raymond suddenly grabbed her arm.

He lowered his voice and said, "Stop right there. If you leave, don't think of coming back anymore."

She stopped in her tracks. Now, she was at her wit's end.

What should she do?

Jasmine read the atmosphere before speaking to Shelly. "I'm sorry, Ms. Barrett. Luna must be in a bad mood. We'll talk to her when she calms down so that she'll offer you an apology. I can apologize in her stead for now. I'll call a doctor to tend to your wounds. It'll be bad to leave a scar on your face."

Mia, who figured that she had enough entertainment, voiced up and said, "Aide Castle has a specialized medical team. We can call them over now to tend to your wounds so that you ladies won't suffer from side effects after that."

Soon, a medical team came over with a medical kit to disinfect their wounds.

The fight left them with some scratches. It was nothing serious.

Timothy gazed at Mia in surprise, wondering if she really is the owner of Aide Castle.
