Meet My Brothers

"I find this situation rather amusing, wouldn't you agree? Why should I feel compelled to share any information with you?

"These two children are my flesh and blood, and as their parent, it's my prerogative to choose whether or not to reveal their existence to anyone."

"Mia, this young boy is the heir of the Barrett family. You don't have the authority to separate him from us.

"If he were a girl, the situation might be different, but as a son, he is destined to be raised within the Barrett family. Regardless, I'm determined to see him return to where he rightfully belongs." Shooting Sharon a chilling stare, Sage retorted, "I have no desire to go back to the Barrett family."

He had absolutely no intention of returning, none whatsoever.

Sharon knelt down, her gaze penetrating as she addressed Sage. "My dear, perhaps you're still too young to fully understand the significance of your father's position.

"He happens to be the CEO of the esteemed Barrett Group in Bern City. If you leave your Mommy and return to our family, you will inherit everything we own.

"You'll have access to immense wealth and wield considerable influence. Do you grasp the significance of this opportunity?"

However, Sage remained resolute. "So what? None of that matters to me," he countered.

"Indeed, you're still just a child who hasn't fully understood the whole situation," Sharon remarked, her tone tinged with disappointment.

"As you grow older, you'll come to regret the decisions you're making now. That's why Grandma is making this choice on your behalf. Someday, you'll understand and appreciate what I'm doing."

To Sharon, Mia seemed reminiscent of Luna, attempting to exploit Timothy as a means to return to the Barrett family.

Following her declaration, Sharon locked eyes with Mia and demanded, "Please, state your conditions. I'm adamant about keeping this child within the Barrett family."

"After everything that's happened, what makes you think you can speak to me like that?" Mia shot back. "Even Timothy himself wouldn't dare challenge me for custody. What gives you the right to feel entitled?'

"Well, it's because we're currently in

Bern City. Have

you forgotten that

this territory belongs to the Barrett family? I this had happened in Nord City, perhaps I wouldn't have a say. But here, within the boundaries of Bern City, your authority holds no weight."

"Mom, I've already emphasized that your involvement in Mia and our children's affairs isn't necessary. Have you forgotten already?" Timothy interjected, frustration lacing his words.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

"Tim, were you aware of this young

boy's existence all this time? Why didn't you tell me earlier? He's the sole grandson of the Barrett family. Are you seriously considering. leaving him with Mia instead of

bringing him back to our family?"

Sharon couldn't help but feel puzzled. While she had only recently discovered Sage's existence, Timothy had known all along. And to compound matters, he deliberately kept him hidden from her. Timothy's demeanor remained aloof as he asserted, "I've said it before, and I'll say it again, I'm not going to contest custody. They can decide where they want to be."

"And who do you plan to designate as the heir to the Barrett family fortune in the future? Considering you have no other children, what strategy do you have in place?" Sharon pressed.

"If there truly isn't anyone to take on the responsibility, then perhaps donating everything for a noble cause could be an option," Timothy replied.

"No, I can't agree with that! The

entire legacy of the Barrett family must be passed down to an heir.

Regardless, this young boy net

can't make decisions on younown this time," Sharon insisted.

With a smirk, Mia challenged, "What makes you entitled to seek custody of Sage? Let's not forget how you and Luna put his life at risk. Have you conveniently forgotten about that?" Sharon's bewilderment was unmistakable. "What do you mean? How did I endanger him?"

"It's because it wasn't Ginger who was sick back then; it was Sage. We intentionally misled you by falsely claiming that Ginger was the one who fell ill, all to keep Timothy unaware of Sage's existence. "While Sage was confined in the isolation chamber, awaiting the donated bone marrow, you and Luna deliberately swapped it, putting his life in jeopardy. Were you even aware of that?" Mia reprimanded. Upon hearing Mia's accusation, Sharon's face drained of color, and she quickly tried to justify herself, stuttering, "I-I wasn't aware it was him who fell ill at that time."

"Regardless of whether you knew it was Sage or not, your actions still endangered him. Just on that account, you won't stand a chance of gaining custody in court," Mia declared.

She was determined to ensure her children never returned to the Barrett family.
