“Nothing,” she replied with a smile. Gazing at her, Dominic added. “There's a charity auction later. You can bid whatever you have your eyes on. Money's not an issue.” Visibly amused, Mia glanced at him and quipped, “Oh, | remember you toldyou're a real estate agent? Dominic cleared his throat and said, “I only mentioned real estate. You assumed | was an agent.” Her gaze drifted to her other brothers. “Nathan, the software programmer?” Nathan said solemnly. “Letreintroduce myself formally. Nice to meet you, Mia. | own Techsphere.” “Oh my god, it’s your company who developed the famous online game!” Mia’s hands flew to her mouth as she spiraled in absolute shock.
Connor took the initiative to defend himself hastily. “Dominic cup with the nonsense ofbeing a vet. | never admitted that | was one.” Mia narrowed her eyes. “So, you're that renowned doctor in Nord City? You're actually the one who operated on Grandma Laura, right?” Rubbing his nose guiltily, he mumbled, “Yeah, but | wasn’t deliberately lying to you. | was in a difficult position back then, and | had no idea how | should explain it to you. | was worried that you'll be mad at me.” Mia glanced over at Claude. “Are you merely a piano teagugr? | remember Maya boasting about her brother being a famous pianist, and he owns the orchestra.” Claude broke into a fit of cold sweat. “E-Exactly. But Mia, | didn’t do that on purpose. | swore that | wouldn't let Maya join the orchestra, and I've been persuading you to join us.” Averting her gaze to Jason, she questioned, “You own the extremely well known law firm, don’t you? You're the best lawyer in Nord City, aren't you?” Jason, who was eloquent and had no issues with expressing himself, was now at a loss for words. He stammered, “Mia, I'm sorry for lying to you all this while.” When Mia was falsely accused, the famous law firm in Nord City defended her case. She thought Jason managed to persuade them to do so, but little did she expect him to own the law firm.
+15 BONUS Lastly, she fixed her gaze at Liam, beaming at him. “The famous actor who worked as an extra?” Only now did she realize he wasn’t Lindon’s stunt double-he was literally him! Clearing his throat, Liam said, “I'm not going to defend myself, but Mia, I've never thought of deceiving you. Dominic forcedto do so!” Dominic waved his fists at Liam. How dare he make him bear all the blame? What a bastard! Mia was overwhelmed once she found out about their real identities. She used to imagine herself being brought back by a wealthy family so she could spite the Barretts. Well, she certainly didn’t expect it'd actually happen.
She pinched herself hard. Her eyebrows immediately drew together as she exclaimed. “It’s not a dream.” Dominic's heart ached. “Of course it isn’t, Mia. It’s real.” Eva placed the paddle in Mia's palm as she urged, “Buy anything you like!” “Yeah!” The other Lane brothers chimed in simultaneously as they shoved their paddles in her hand.
“It’s not like | need that many of them,” Mia quipped.
