Chapter 691-700

Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 691-Mia glanced at Luna, then quickly covered her mouth, faking a smile. “Shelly, let’s not say things like that. We wouldn’t want to upset Ms. Maynard.” “Luna is incredibly understanding; she won’t take offense,” Shelly insisted.

Mia couldn’t help but notice Luna struggling to maintain her composure.

“I understand, but for individuals like us who casually indulge in luxury items, bags and shoes are merely superficial possessions. Ms. Maynard seems to attach excessive importance to them,” Mia remarked.

Shelly readily agreed, “Exactly. For people from more modest backgrounds, a luxury item could represent their entire year’s salary, so they tend to attach great significance to it.” A hint of bitterness flashed in Luna’s eyes. Despite her inner turmoil, she forced a composed expression and inquired, “Shelly, how is Grandma Laura’s condition?” “They’re still doing everything they can to save her. It’s difficult to predict when it will all be over,” Shelly replied.

Glancing at the time, she realized it was already quite late. Had Laura’s condition not suddenly deteriorated, Shelly wouldn’t have been summoned to the hospital by Harriette to attend to Laura.

After all, Harriette had made it clear that she needed to behave well in front of Timothy to continue receiving her monthly allowance.

Were it not for financial considerations, Shelly wouldn’t have found herself at the hospital in the dead of night, pretending to be dutiful.
