Chapter 691-700
Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen chapter 691-Mia glanced at Luna, then quickly covered her mouth, faking a smile. âShelly, letâs not say things like that. We wouldnât want to upset Ms. Maynard.â âLuna is incredibly understanding; she wonât take offense,â Shelly insisted.
Mia couldnât help but notice Luna struggling to maintain her composure.
âI 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,â Mia remarked.
Shelly readily agreed, âExactly. For people from more modest backgrounds, a luxury item could represent their entire yearâs salary, so they tend to attach great significance to it.â A hint of bitterness flashed in Lunaâs eyes. Despite her inner turmoil, she forced a composed expression and inquired, âShelly, how is Grandma Lauraâs condition?â âTheyâre still doing everything they can to save her. Itâs difficult to predict when it will all be over,â Shelly replied.
