Ch. 991..1000

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 991-"That won't happen. He definitely won't notice these things if you answer him directly. Besides, he already knows who you are. Whether you reveal your identity or not doesn't matter." Timothy remained silent for a moment before he typed out his reply on the keyboard.

"That's all in the past. I've returned to a normal life since doing something significant."

Upon seeing this response, Sage continued to inquire, "What significant thing did you do?"

Could it be the same thing mentioned by his subordinate just now? Could Timothy really be the infamous doomBringer from the olden days?

Coincidentally, the "B" in doomBringer, which was also the first letter of the asshole's family name, was capitalized.

It felt like he was getting closer to the truth.

"In the past, there was a notorious terrorist organization that brazenly invaded many people's computer systems and boasted that no one could find their existence. It caused extremely negative impacts on the international community.

"At that time, with youthful zeal, I gathered a group of people and raided their hideouts one by one, exposing these terrorists. However, these terrorists were no ordinary people." "Ordinary?' What do you mean?"

Sage initially thought that everything seemed okay on the surface. After all, he had heard about the heroic deeds of Nord City and Bern City establishing an anti-terrorism organization alliance many times before. His subordinates even described it personally.

None of these were secrets, as they could all be found on the internet.

However, he didn't expect the terrorists to have another secret about their true identities.

"Those terrorists are not from poor families; they're basically the sons and daughters of wealthy families. Those wealthy families started to obstruct, threaten, and lure us to stop the attack. They even wanted us to give up on exposing the true identities of the terrorists to the world."

This indeed surprised Sage. There were various opinions on the internet about the identities of those terrorists but most of them tended to believe that they were from poor countries and became radicalized due to resentment towards the wealthy, which led them to commit these acts.

But he didn't expect that some of those people were actually members of wealthy families.

Out of curiosity, Sage suddenly asked, "What happened after that? Why did they do this?"

Timothy explained patiently, "You can never judge a lunatic with normal thinking. As for those wealthy young men and women, it's because they were too bored, so they started to disguise themselves as criminals. With the internet as their cover, they put on a mask and dominated the online world. They made it so that no one could catch them.

"They seek the thrill."

Sage was somewhat indignant upon hearing that. "But they hurt so many people, most of whom are ordinary people just living their lives!

"These normal people didn't provoke them, so why should they be toyed with and harmed by those terrorists?"

Sage hated those who bullied others. He and his group of friends often did righteous deeds, intervening when they saw injustices.

That's why he was interested in the story of doomBringer eliminating terrorists.

Timothy continued typing, "At that et time, we couldn't stand how arrogant those terrorists were. That's why we publicly called for the best members from both the North and the South and openly declared war on that group of terrorists."

"But those terrorists were powerful, right? Their families joining forces should have put a lot of pressure on you?"

Sage only knew that the bad guy was now the richest man in Bern City. However, the bad guy probably didn't have that much power yet back then.

Faced with warnings from those allied families, the bad guy should still have felt pressure. After all, one man alone was no match for many.

It was hard for even one family to fight against all the other families.

After all, the bad guy wasn't yet the head of the Barrett family back then.

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 992-Timothy replied calmly, "Indeed, there were infiltrators from their side among us, which led to the exposure of the identities of the members. Many people, including myself, were secretly threatened." "So how did you end up resolving this matter?" Sage asked, his heart tensing up when he heard those words.

He had only heard about this heroic story, but he didn't know there were so many hidden twists and turns in the middle.

For example, the terrorists were actually the sons and daughters from wealthy families.

But Sage knew that the end result was the terrorist organization being crushed and its members arrested.

But how was it dealt with in between?

He was curious how Timothy did it.

As Timothy was about to reply, Caleb pulled him back abruptly. "Alright, we can't continue talking about this," he warned.

Timothy looked up, somewhat displeased. "Why? This seems to be a topic he's very interested in."

After all, they had finally found a topic that the kid was interested in. Why couldn't they continue talking about it?

"Tim, didn't you say that you're not in the place to reveal your identity? You signed a confidentiality agreement for these things back then. It wouldn't be good to talk about it now, would it?"

The man replied domineeringly, "Indeed, I signed a confidentiality agreement back then, but that was then. Even if I talk about it now, what can anyone do?"

What happened in the past was in the past; the present was the present.

"Indeed." Caleb clapped his hands. "It's time to look at things with new eyes after all this time."

Those arrogant families from back then couldn't even speak in front of the Barrett family now.

Caleb added, "But that's not what I'm trying to say. It's just that he's interested in this topic, and you've touched on a crucial point. According to common sense, what should you do?" Timothy immediately kicked Caleb. "Don't beat around the bush. Cut the nonsense and tell me what I should do."

"It's simple. Just ask for his contact information, and then say that you can explain it to him in detail later."

"Are you sure that's a good idea?"

"What's bad about it? Just get his contact information, and then you can chat with him regularly in the future and build a better relationship. Otherwise, how will you find him again if he goes offline after the two of you finish talking?" S Caleb added, "Do you want to wait until he hacks into your computer system again? That's definitely not happening. Are you willing to lose his contact just like that?"

Timothy thought for a moment and said, "What you said makes sense, but how can I get his contact information? The kid seems to reject me. If I ask him for his contact information directly, he'll definitely refuse."

"That's easy. Let me handle it." Caleb ne took the keyboard and started typing, "It's a long story. However, have signed a confidentiality agreement and cannot disclose it publicly. It might not be safe typing it out on this computer. After all, this is my work computer."

Sage was leaming about the crucial part. He had just disclosed the story of the joint battle against terrorism by Nord City and Bern City, and his subordinates were waiting for him to pass on the message when there was more to the story. If this man didn't explain the crucial part now, how would Sage explain it when he went back?

Getting anxious, Sage asked, "What should we do then?"

"How about this? I'll leave you a way to contact me, and I'll take my time explaining it to you after I finish my work. You have to promise you won't let anyone else know about this for no reason, though." Sage hesitated when Caleb mentioned wanting his contact information.

Should he give it out or not?

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 993-Sage thought for a moment and replied, "Okay."

After all, he had another account. He would use his secondary WhatsApp account to add him, so he wouldn't be discovered.

Once he had heard Timothy's story, he would immediately delete his number so that the latter wouldn't notice what Sage had done.

After all, Sage only wanted to hear the story. He didn't really want Timothy's contact information.

Soon, the two of them added each other's contact on their phones, each with their own intentions.

Timothy was extremely excited when he saw the added number. He hadn't expected Caleb's method to actually work.

He managed to get the other twin's contact information!

He had been desperately searching for the whereabouts of the other twin. Now that he had added the contact information so easily, it all felt like a dream. Caleb patted Timothy's shoulder. "How's that? You can never go wrong if you listen to me."

"What should I say to him next?"

"Go ahead and transfer him some money," Caleb replied.

But why did Timothy have to do that?

Making money wasn't a problem for him. After all, he felt he owed the child so much. He would feel it was only fair even if he gave all his wealth to Sage.

But now, if he acted recklessly and let Sage know who he was, Sage would definitely delete his contact immediately.

Timothy was sure about this!

After all, Sage wasn't as easy to coax as Ginger was.

Caleb typed this sentence and immediately sent it over. He took action before Timothy even said anything.

"Tim, actually, when it comes to pacifying the little hacker, the principle is simple. It's just like when you want to catch the attention of that lady over there." Timothy scolded, "Do you have to speak in riddles?"

Caleb continued to explain, "When you send a sentence like this, he will surely be curious."

As soon as Caleb finished speaking, Sage sent a question mark, along with a sentence.

"Are you trying to buy me over with money?"

Timothy suddenly felt a headache. "So what should we do now?"

"It's simple. You can just admit the truth."

"Alright then, go on. Keep doing what you're doing. If you dare to mess it up, I'll break your legs," Timothy warned.

Timothy placed the computer in front of Caleb, glaring at him as if to say, "You're done for if you mess this up."

Caleb took a deep breath. "I'm feeling a lot of pressure right now."

"Hurry up and reply," Timothy urged with a frown. "Don't keep him waiting."

Obediently, Caleb typed, "It's not like you're not someone who can be bought with money."

Upon seeing this response, Sage snorted coldly. "You've got some sense. There's no way I could be bought with money."

If this man really intended to buy him with money, Sage would immediately delete hist not bother with the story After all, since birth, his uncles had prepared many gifts for him and his sister.

He and his sister were both young millionaires now. In fact, their assets could even make it onto the rankings for millionaires.

Of course, their uncles had planned their assets accordingly, so their names wouldn't appear on the rankings.

Caleb continued typing, "I thought of bribing you After with this monell I can't leave Nord City for the time because of some matter.

being Upon reading this, Sage immediately responded, "You haven't finished telling your story. How did you solve the situation back then? How did you send the villains to prison?"

The reason he had added this man's contact was to hear the story, so he couldn't let it veer off track.

Caleb raised an eyebrow, commenting, "This little hacker is pretty smart. He didn't fall for it."

"What should we reply now?" Timothy asked.

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 994-One wrong move and things could go south. After all, children's moods were the most unpredictable. Right then, Caleb closed the chat window.

"Tim, let's not rush right now."

Timothy couldn't help panicking. "Don't you see him asking a question? Hurry up and answer him!"

"It's not the right time to answer. Let's keep him hanging for a bit. Besides, you just said you have something to deal with later. "Since he wants an answer now, he won't delete your number. At least not until you finish that story," Caleb explained.

"Isn't that obvious? What if he deletes my number right after I finish the story?"

"That's a problem for next time. But if you tell him now, he might delete your number as soon as he hears about the story."

"Are you sure about this?" Timothy asked skeptically.

"It's a strategy called 'luring him in by letting him go.' You even told him you were trying to bribe him. He definitely won't delete your number. His impression of you should also be much better now. After all, you were a hero of some sort."

Timothy looked at the computer and replied, "I never considered myself a hero. At least to the child, I am an unforgivable sinner."

"No. The term 'unforgivable sinner' falls short. To the kid, you are probably an irresponsible asshole."

Hearing the word "asshole", Timothy felt like he had been stabbed in the heart.

He snapped, "Shut up if you don't know what to say."

"You sure are quick to turn your back! I just helped you come up with a plan, added the little hacker on WhatsApp, and gave you the chance to chat with him a bit more. And yet, you're turning your back on me. You really are an asshole," Caleb remarked.

On the other side of the computer, Sage, seeing no reply in the chat box, angrily left the application.

How annoying! Why would the guy stop telling the story halfway through?

His subordinate sent another message then.

"Sir, how did your conversation with the hero go? What other secrets are there behind that legendary story from back then?"

"And how did they finally deal with those super-rich and arrogant youngsters?"

"Exactly, Sir. We just searched for that story again and watched the complete version. We heard there were some twists in the middle. The members of the alliance were all threatened by the terrorists. But despite all the pressure, doomBringer managed to find and expose all those terrorists in the end.

None of us know how he did it, though."

Sage replied, frustrated, "I don't know either. He didn't continue with his story."

"Aw shucks! Why not? Did the hero have something to attend to? Did he mention when he would continue?"

"He seemed to have some work to attend to. After all, he seemed to be in a meeting when we hacked in earlier."

The subordinate who clearly remembered what they had done guiltily asked, "Sir, will the hero be upset that we disrupted his meeting when we hacked in earlier?" "Hmph. He's just a fallen hero. What's there to be upset about?" Sage retorted.

inet "Sir, honestly, if you had continued just now, you might not have won We're not trying to take credit away from ourselves. But really, the hero from that era was really powerful."

"Yeah! He's been in retirement for many years, but not even the seven of us could beat him just now. You can clearly see the difference between him and us."

"I agree. In that case, compared to the hero from the Lane family, who's stronger?"

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 995-Sage didn't hesitate to say, "Of course, Uncle Nathan… Ahem, I mean, the hero from the Lane family is better."

Sage didn't reveal his identity to his subordinates. They didn't even know he was just a 4-year-old child.

They also didn't know that the great hero Nathan was his uncle, the same man who had taught him about computers since he was a child.

To Sage, Nathan was the most amazing person. As for that bad guy… Sage would reluctantly agree that he was somewhat impressive. Still, he was not as powerful as his uncle Nathan!

At the same time, Timothy and Caleb were still debating how to keep the little hacker around.

The secretary approached them then.

"Mr. Barrett, Mr. Shelbert would like to meet with you."

Timothy immediately replied, "Okay."

"Tim, what does Mr. Shelbert want to discuss with you? He isn't trying to get you to deal with the Lane family with him, is he? He clearly knows about your relationship with Mia, and yet, he is still trying to persuade you to go against the Lane family?"

Timothy tapped the table with his hand. "We'll find out about Mr. Shelbert's intentions when we get there."

"And how are you going to deal with your mother? She is here this time because of your uncle, isn't she?" Caleb sighed. It sure wasn't easy, having an uncle like Ralph.

Timothy remained silent for a moment. He had wanted to send his mother back, but she refused to leave, insisting on resolving Ralph's matter first.

He eventually uttered, "Since we have to deal with it, let's put an end to all possible problems in the future."

He couldn't let his mother be held back by his uncle anymore, nor could he let her stay in Nord City any longer.

It was time to deal with it.

Soon, Mia received news that Raymond had secretly met with Timothy again. She wondered what these two were conspiring about.

The secretary tentatively asked, "Ms.

Mia, should we make some preparations? As for that project, we haven't received any notifications from Mr. Shelbert's side yet, and we haven't received an invitation to next week's meeting. Does this mean that the Lane family has been sidelined?"

"Regarding the invitation, that's easily sorted out. I'm not too concerned about that project. If Mr. Shelbert dares to openly insult our Lane family, I absolutely won't let it slide easily."

Mia couldn't understand why Raymond was targeting the Lane family for Luna's sake. Did he really think that he could afford to el.ne disrespect the Lane family just because there was a possibility of collaboration with the Barrett family?

Regardless of whether Timothy would cooperate with Raymond or not, she wouldn't let Raymond nor Luna off the hook.

If he wanted to scheme against the Lane family, then he should be prepared to pay the price.

After speaking, Mia looked at her secretary and asked, "How is the investigation into Luna's whereabouts going?"

"We have looked into it. Recently, she seems to enjoy shopping at the mall, getting beauty treatments at the salon, or buying things at jewelry stores."

Mia's face showed a hint of sarcasm. "It seems that Luna is finally revealing her true colors, now that she has transformed into a rich girl."

After all, Mia had thought Luna was noble and virtuous by the way she always acted high and mighty when she used to be poor.

But now that Luna was back to Raymond and had a little money, she was buying things everywhere, not hiding her desire for these luxury items at all. "Find out when Luna frequents the mall," Mia instructed. She needed to take action.

When Mia called Jasmine right then, the latter picked up almost immediately.

However, Jasmine's mood seemed down, and her tone was somewhat dejected when she asked, "Mia, is there something you need?"

"Nothing much, just wondering how you've been lately."

After all, Mia had intentionally revealed Luna's existence to Jasmine before. But after these few days, there had been no news from Jasmine's side, and even the internet hadn't exposed anything about Luna's relationship with Raymond.

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 996-Now this was a little strange.

After all, if she wanted to deal with Luna, she had to go through Jasmine.

However, Jasmine's methods seemed to have failed, or at least they hadn't produced the results she had expected.

Could it be that Luna had done something Jasmine didn't know about?

Taking a deep breath, Jasmine said sarcastically, "Not so good lately. The information you gave me last time made me feel like I never really knew him."

Her father had always been loving towards his family. However, everything had changed since that woman named Luna appeared.

"Every family has its problems. How about we go to the mall, relax a bit, and chat some more?" Mia suggested.

"Okay," Jasmine agreed readily.

After Mia hung up, her secretary immediately informed her, "Luna should also be going shopping this afternoon. It's all arranged. She'll be buying the latest Vior handbag." "Good job."

The secretary was quietly efficient. After all, it didn't take much to investigate Luna. The only thing they needed to do to get Luna at the mall in the afternoon was mention the latest handbag.

Mia invited Jasmine to meet at the mall in the afternoon. Not long after getting out of the car, she saw a tired-looking Jasmine.

Mia walked over and patted Jasmine's shoulder. "Actually, these things are quite common in big families. You need to stay strong. If something happens, make sure to hold onto the family's assets. It's the best course of action for you and your mother."

At this moment, Mia wasn't sure if Jasmine knew Luna's true identity, so she had to be cautious.

As soon as Mia finished speaking, net Jasmine's eyes turned red. "But I never thought my father would have another woman and even have a child-a son with her! I know my. father has always wanted a son, but my mother's health suffered after giving birth to me, and despite trying for so many years, she couldn't get pregnant again.

"Over the years, my father has always been good to my cousin just because he's a boy."

But she never expected her father to have fathered an illegitimate son outside the family.

Mia was speechless for a moment. "These days, men's obsession with their sons is beyond imagination. They have an extraordinary attachment to their own gender."

Jasmine sarcastically remarked, "Yeah, I used to think I was different. I worked hard all the time, trying to surpass my cousin, wanting to be excellent, hoping to earn my father's respect. But in the end, I couldn't beat him because of my gender."

How ironic.

Women could bear children, yet their gender was scorned.

"Ms. Shelbert, you don't have to be so pessimistic. You are indeed excellent, and you're no worse than those men. But if the other woman really has a child, the child would be too young to compete with you."

Jasmine's expression turned into one of mockery. "The boy is about 4 years old. Indeed, compared to me he is too young. By the time he grew up, I would have inherited everything from my father. But that boy still has a mother who will fight over the assets with me."

The young one might not be able to do anything, but the mother would definitely intervene.

Mia thought of Luna's manipulative nature. She would definitely compete with Jasmine for the inheritance.

This was a contradiction.

However, it was also an opportunity.

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 997-Jasmine looked at Mia with an envious gaze. "I envy you for having six brothers who all treat you well and without favoritism." Wouldn't it be great if she had six brothers who treated her so well?

Mia awkwardly smiled and replied, "Actually, not every father treats their children like that. You don't have to be so pessimistic."

During the first half of her life as an orphan, she had indeed suffered, but since returning to the Lane family, she had never suffered again.

Hearing that, Jasmine nodded and suggested they start shopping. "Let's go. I heard that Vior has released the latest collection of handbags. Let's go take a look."

Mia was delighted when Jasmine mentioned going to Vior to see the latest handbags. After all, the reason she had invited Jasmine to the mall was to run into Luna. Now that Jasmine suggested going to Vior, Mia didn't need to lead her there.

The two of them took the elevator to the top floor where the Vior boutique was located.

When Mia glanced at her phone, she saw a message from her secretary.

"Luna has already set off. She'll arrive at the mall in half an hour."

After reading the message, Mia calmly put her phone away. Since Luna had given Raymond and the Barrett family hope for a cooperation, she would completely crush that hope.

Mia and Jasmine soon sat down in the Vior store. Mia accompanied Jasmine in picking out a few outfits and at the same time had the salesperson display the latest handbag collection on the table. Jasmine's mood improved slightly after she tried on a few outfits.

Before long, Luna arrived with a small entourage.

Luna immediately said to the salesperson, "Show me the latest handbags."

The salesperson hesitated for a moment before replying, "I'm sorry, Ms. Maynard, but currently, we only have one of the latest handbags in stock, and it's already being shown to another customer. We'll be happy to show it to you once they're done. If they decide not to purchase it, then it will be available for you."

Upon hearing this, Luna became angry and demanded, "I am a platinum member at Vior. I have priority access to all your products! Why should I have to wait?"

Her entourage echoed, "That's right! Ms. Maynard is a distinguished person, and she's a platinum member here. Why should she wait? Show us the handbag now. If Ms. Maynard doesn't buy it, then the rest o us will."

Luna adjusted her clothes, wearing a smug expression on her face.

She remembered how envious she had been of that VIP membership card.

Now, she was the proud owner of one. Why should she still have to grovel and be submissive like she used to be?

Put in a tough spot, the salesperson explained again, "I'm really sorry. It's on a first-come, first-served basis. I can't do anything about it."

One of Luna's entourage slapped the net salesperson and scolded, "Just go and get it. You're just an ordinary person. Why are you talking to a platinum member like this? If you can't do something about it, then piss off. We need someone who can do the job properly." Having let off some steam, Luna watched the unfolding scene with satisfaction. She even felt a little triumphant.

Back then, when she encountered such situations, she had to play the peacemaker. Even when she was the one being slapped and scolded. Now, the roles had changed, and she could finally exercise the rind she of a wealthy person. It felt good to be in control for once.

Luna looked directly at the salesperson who had been slapped and arrogantly demanded, "Now, go and bring me the handbag. I won't hold it against you for what happened earlier. You can continue working here. Don't worry; I won't complain about you."

After she said that, her entourage immediately added, "Did you hear that? Luna is kind enough to not hold a grudge. You'd better hurry up and bring that latest handbag here before you lose your job."

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 998-The young salesperson, who was relatively new, felt extremely flustered after being scolded. She hadn't been working for long, and if she lost this job, she wouldn't be able to pay next month's rent. She had never served a platinum member and didn't know how to handle them.

Who would have thought that the platinum member who came today would be so difficult to deal with and resort to violence so easily?

The salesperson turned and went to the VIP area nearby, standing in front of Mia. "I'm really sorry, ma'am. Have you finished looking at this handbag? If you haven't made a decision yet, there's a customer outside who wants to take a look. Would it be possible for me to show it to them?"

Mia looked at the young salesperson in surprise and commented with a smile, "You must be new here."

The salesperson replied awkwardly, "Yes, I've only been here for three months, and there are still many things I'm not familiar with. If there's anything I haven't done well, please let me know."

Mia noticed the clear mark of a slap on the salesperson's face. It was obvious that the salesperson had just been slapped.

Glancing at her, Mia asked, "What happened to your face? Who hit you?"

The salesperson covered her cheek and immediately started apologizing, "I'm sorry. Please forgive me for being clumsy. I fell, no one hit me."

She couldn't admit to anything now, or else things might escalate, and as a mere salesperson, she had no one to back her up.

Jasmine came out and looked at the salesperson, saying, "It's obvious that you can't get a slap mark like that from falling. Was it the customer who wanted to see this handbag? Can you believe how audacious some people can be these days?"

As Jasmine finished speaking, Luna's entourage walked in.

One of Luna's "followers" rushed forward and yelled at Jasmine.

"Hey, you! What nonsense are you talking about? This salesperson didn't know her place. Luna is entitled to priority viewing as a platinum member. Since this salesperson with a bad attitude was dragging her feet and not bringing out the bag, what's wrong with giving her a little lesson?

"It's for her own good. This way, she won't offend customers and get fired in the future."

After hearing this, Jasmine slapped the follower.

"I'm also teaching you by slapping you now. It's for your own good, in case you keep speaking this way, embarrassing yourself, offending people, getting sued for defamation, and ending up in jail."

The follower was angry after being slapped. However, thinking that Jasmine must also come from a wealthy family from the way she was dressed in luxury brands, she didn't dare utter a word.

She could only turn her head and call out to someone outside.

"Luna!"

"What's wrong?"

Luna strolled in from outside, with the air of a young lady from a wealthy family.

Her follower ran over and tearfully ranted, "Luna, I was just standing up for you, but that woman dared to hit me! She clearly doesn't respect you."

When Luna walked in and saw Jasmine, she immediately recognized who the woman in front of her was. After all, she had also stayed at Raymond's house and had thoroughly investigated Raymond's family members.

She also knew that Jasmine was Raymond's only daughter who was treated like a precious gem her entire life. She had studied abroad and had only recently returned.

When Luna saw Jasmine, a jealous expression appeared on her face. As both of them were Raymond's daughters, Luna had been poor since childhood and had nothing compared to Jasmine.

It wasn't fair at all.

She had always hoped to meet this woman, but she didn't expect it to happen so soon.

When Jasmine saw Luna, her face suddenly fell, and she exclaimed, "It's you!"

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 999-Jasmine hadn't expected to run into Luna at the mall while she was just out shopping. She had investigated Luna's background and knew what she looked like, so she recognized her at first sight. This world could be a really small place at times.

Seeing Jasmine's reaction, Luna strutted over with a smirk.

"So, you know me. It seems you're quite interested in me."

Luna had heard that Raymond's family had heard rumors and had been secretly investigating her. There had even been a confrontation. She thought it was Raymond's wife who had found out, but it turned out to be Raymond's daughter.

Well, that was even better.

Dissatisfied with her current treatment, she wanted to have the same treatment as Raymond's daughter.

Only then would it be fair.

Jasmine's face turned pale. She was caught off guard as she hadn't expected to meet Luna face-to-face so soon.

Jasmine snorted. "Your lackey has the same character as you. Indeed, the dog takes after its owner."

The follower was immediately enraged.

"Who are you calling a dog? Watch your mouth!"

"I'm talking to Luna. What does this have anything to do with you? Get lost!"

Luna didn't take Jasmine's words to heart.

After all, Jasmine was just a spoiled young lady throwing a tantrum. She was easy to deal with.

Luna touched the brand-name bracelet on her wrist and smiled. "I know you're angry, but being angry won't change anything. My existence is a fact. You'll have to accept it."

After all, over the years, Jasmine had much more than Luna did.

"I'm warning you not to get too cocky, Luna, I've seen plenty of women like you. You want to be part of the family? Dream on. Without my mother, Raymond wouldn't be where he is today. Everything my father has belongs to my mother. You won't get a penny," Jasmine warned.

"Is that so? But it's not up to you. Your mother has already stepped back, so everything is up to your father now. When the time comes, he'll decide who gets what."

Luna deliberately said this to provoke Jasmine, hoping to make her lose her composure and give Luna an advantage.

Angered, Jasmine raised her hand to hit Luna.

However, Mia grabbed Jasmine's hand before she could act, advising, "Don't stoop to her level. You don't want to dirty your hands on someone like her."

At that moment, Luna noticed the woman sitting on the couch beside them.

She looked surprised at first, but then her expression turned smug.

"You were the one who leaked this information to Jasmine, weren't you?"

Mia smiled subtly and commented, "After all, there are no secrets in this world. How long did you think you could hide your identity? You should be grateful for what I did."

"You're right!" Luna chortled with her hand over her mouth. "I never wanted to hide my identity. I wish everyone knew who I am. That way, I wouldn't have to hide and be looked down upon by people like you."

n Jasmine angrily retorted, "So what if Mia told me? Do you think your shameful identity is something to be proud of? Even if your identity is exposed, you're still a mistress who is despised by all. Why are you even happy about that?"

Jasmine thought Luna was too arrogant. Did she really think that being a mistress and having a child would help her smoothly integrate into the family?

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 1000-Jasmine thought that her father, Raymond, certainly wouldn't divorce her mother to marry such a young mistress.

Luna's expression instantly darkened. "What right do you have to say that to me? If it weren't for your mother being the mistress and taking Mr. Shelbert away back then, I wouldn't be living this kind of life. Everything you have should've been mine."

"Ridiculous. What a joke! You say my mother took Mr. Shelbert away, but clearly you're the one being the third party now, trying to compete with me for my father," Jasmine remarked. She found Luna's words a bit odd.

After hearing this, Luna raised her eyebrows and looked at Mia. "Looks like you haven't told her the truth. You only misled her into thinking I'm Mr. Shelbert's mistress, huh?"

Jasmine, somewhat puzzled, looked at both of them. "Do you know each other?"

Luna smiled and replied, "I would say we know each other pretty well."

Jasmine looked at Mia. "What is this woman saying? What's her relationship with my dad?"

Mia paused for a moment before explaining, "It's a long story, but your dad's side threatened me not to reveal it. That was why I only told you there was a woman and a child in the room. I wanted you to investigate it yourself. After all, it's your family matter. I didn't think you would misunderstand it."

Luna wanted to shift the blame onto Mia, but that was impossible when Mia wouldn't give Luna that chance.

Jasmine suddenly felt like she was on the verge of a breakdown.

"So what's her relationship with my dad? And that little boy… Is he my dad's child or not?"

"Wrong question." Luna chuckled. "You shouldn't ask if that little boy is your dad's child. You should ask if I am your dad's child."

"What? What do you mean you're my dad's child? That's impossible. You're just my dad's mistress. How could my dad have a child your age?"

And Jasmine had investigated Luna before. This woman was only a few years older than her. How could she be her dad's daughter? If that were true, it would mean her dad had cheated a long time ago.

Luna smirked, "That's right. I am et your dad's daughter. He and my mom were each other's first love. They knew each other long before your mother. If we're talking about who the mistress is, it should be your mother.

"She's the one who ruined the relationship between my mom and dad."

"Shut up! My mom is not that kind of person. My dad was definitely single when he was with my mom. He has never mentioned your mother," Jasmine retorted.

Luna snapped, "That's because your father felt so guilty that he didn't dare mention it."

"You're lying. Your mother must have tried to climb up the social ladder. She deliberately got pregnant and didn't tell my dad. She wanted to use you as leverage against my dad, but your mom's plan backfired, didn't it? My dad didn't acknowledge you guys because my dad hates being deceived," Jasmine said.

Luna's expression changed instantly when she heard those words.

It was a fact that Jasmine understood her father well. It was true that when Luna found Raymond back then, he was angry that Luna's mother had secretly given birth to a child. He only wanted to give her money and send her on her way. He didn't want to acknowledge her, and he certainly didn't want to see her again after that.

What gave?

Luna angrily retorted, "You're the one who's lying. Your mother knew Mr. Shelbert had a girlfriend, but still she shamelessly pursued him. She eventually interfered in their relationship and caused their breakup."
