Chapter 901
Mia was utterly bewildered. Little did she expect to bump into Connie in this hospital. It was a small
world indeed.
The fact that Connie thought that Mia was here to apologize was even more absurd. Connie’s audacity
was truly palpable!
It seemed like the Bowens hadn’t learnt their lesson. They were still as arrogant as always and didn’t
hesitate to abuse their power.
Connie had walked up to Mia while she was still stunned.
Connie hollered, “You’re nervous because we’re about to close the deal with the Barretts, aren’t you?
Well, it’s too late for you to apologize now. I won’t forgive you.
“We won’t accept you into our family as well. You used to look down on us, but you’ll have a taste of
your own medicine now.”
Mia’s gaze darted between Connie and her attendant. “I’d like to ask whether there’s anything wrong
with Mrs. Bowen. Is her brain injured?” Mia asked nonchalantly.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t explain the absurdity of her speech now.
“Mia, do you think I can’t sense your insinuation? I have a perfectly sound mind now, even after you
guys schemed for me to be hospitalized after a concussion. My son will definitely target the Lanes once
he cooperates with the Barretts. You Lanes will pay a heavy price by then,†Connie retorted.
Mia was getting tired of Connie’s threats. Frustrated, she turned toward Timothy and asked, “Are you
guys really going to cooperate with the Bowens?”
She thought she’d just told him yesterday to hurry back to Bern City and contact his subordinates so
they could investigate this matter thoroughly. She really couldn’t stand the sight of the Bowens making
a fool of themselves every single time. She doesn’t even feel a sense of achievement when dealing
with their pure stupidity.
Timothy replied coldly, “I’ve already sent someone to investigate this matter. Regardless of what the
previous team negotiated with the Bowens, it’s impossible for us to work with the Bowens under my
watch.”
Mia nodded and glanced at Connie. “Did you hear that? The Barrett family isn’t going to cooperate with
the Bowens. Stop daydreaming.†Timothy wasn’t a fool either. Why would he still cooperate with the
Bowens after they’d called him a gigolo right in his face? They might be retards, but he certainly wasn’t
one.
Connie snorted. “What do you mean? Isn’t he your bodyguard? What makes him have a say in this?”
Mia contemplated for a while and said, “He’s the one in charge of the Barrett family, so he certainly has
a say in this. You claim that you’re going to cooperate with the Barretts, but apparently, you can’t even
recognize the CEO of Barrett Group.”
“The CEO of Barrett Group? Don’t tell me this loser right here is the CEO of Barrett Group,†Connie
said, her tone tinged with mockery.
Mia nodded. “That’s right. You might not believe it, but he really is the CEO of Barrett Group.†She had
expected Connie to be taken aback by this information.
However, Connie burst into a fit of laughter in the next instant.
“Mia, I know you’re scared. But still, it’s wrong of you to come up with such a ridiculous excuse to fool
us. He’s just a broke bodyguard. How could he possibly be the CEO of Barrett Group?”
