Chapter 488

“You’re being too understanding, Mia. It pains me to see you like this. Don’t worry. At the upcoming party this weekend, every one of us is there for you.”

Eva gritted her teeth, recalling that a charity auction would be held during the party.

Considering that the Barretts were the host, Eva was resolute to teach them a lesson that night.

How could she simply turn a blind eye to Mia’s suffering when Dominic couldn’t either?

Meanwhile, Mia simply assumed that Eva had given up on a retaliation, hence the sigh of relief. “We’ve bought the clothes we need. Let’s go home.”

“Okay. Bill, please.” Eva bought many clothes as though they were worth nothing. She seemed used to it.

That strange feeling stirred in Mia again.

Still, Eva’s spending wouldn’t cause a problem because Dominic and the others were raking in big money.

Together, they returned home with fruitful shopping. Patricia kept rambling about how wasteful they were at the sight of the pile of clothes, but that didn’t stop her from getting changed into new clothes happily.
