Meet My Brothers

Chapter 1036

Mia clenched her fists to rein in her annoyance. Although Timothy was stating the truth, she didn't want to be embarrassed in front of him.

She raised her head confidently. "Well, that's none of your concern. Besides, the women around you, including Luna, are the same. They're coming after your status. When you became my bodyguard, did they even bat an eyelid at you?"

"At least they like my face," he pointed it out frankly.

She scoffed. "Wow, you seem proud of that."

He then added meekly, "But unfortunately, you don't like it."

His presence alone annoyed her. However, right now, he stripped off his usual prideful persona and looked like a pitiful big puppy.

He could literally earn a living with that face.

The main reason she fell for him back then was his looks.

Everyone loved hot guys.

It was only after that that she realized that liking a hot guy would make her life miserable.

Mia spun around. "Because I've met a lot of handsome guys. My suitors are good-looking. One of them is Liam's friend from the entertainment industry. They're all gorgeous. I can have any kind of man I want." Frustration bubbled in Timothy. "Showbiz is too complicated. Other than looks, what's good about them? They're not as rich as I am either."

"I don't lack money. I just need a romantic man who can make me happy and listen to me."

He gulped. "Isn't that me?"

Mia smiled faintly. "Don't get ahead of yourself, Mr. Barrett. You can't make me happy and you don't listen to me. Forget about being romantic, you don't know what makes a woman happy."

As a man who was always surrounded by women, how would Timothy know how to make a woman happy?

He wasn't someone who needed to do that kind of thing.

"How would you know without giving me a chance?"

She lifted her head and noticed an old lady selling balloons. An idea occurred to her. "I want the biggest balloon."

A big smile appeared on his face before he immediately ran over to the old lady.

Mia watched his back as regret slowly registered in her.

Had she fallen for his trap? Why did she give that jerk a chance?

By the time he reached the old lady, a little girl was already one step ahead of him. She bought the biggest balloon!

That put him in a difficult position. "I'll give you one hundred bucks for the balloon," he offered.

The little girl pulled the balloon close to her. "No!"

Mia smirked, wondering what his next steps would be.

He crouched before the little girl helplessly. "With this money, you can buy all want. Are you sure you don't want it?" S

"No. I want Princess Arulan." She was referring to the balloon.

Given her age, she didn't have the slightest idea of what money meant in this world. All she knew was that it wasn't easy to save up enough money to buy this balloon. S

Mia looked at Timothy. "Forget it, Mr. Barrett, let's not trouble a kid. It seems like we're not fated to beText property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

together. It's getting late. I should go now."

"Wait up!"

He knelt before the kid. "What do you want me to do so that I can have the balloon?"

He swore to himself that he was going to buy that balloon! Otherwise, he would lose the chance Mia gave him!
