I can't wait to rub the truth in Mia's face and see whether she dares to spout any more nonsense." A smug smile spread across Sharon's face. "The owner will show up once the banquet starts. Don't be hasty." "I'm just eager to see how someone's going to be humiliated. It's funny of her to think that she's actually that influential in Nord City as a Lane." Amused, Mia turned toward them.

Her eyes lit up as she exclaimed, "Aunt Sharon, the manager is here." Sharon spun around. Glancing over at Philip who was clad in a suit, she smiled and said, "What a coincidence." "Look, Aunt Sharon. He's approaching us. Perhaps he's coming over to greet you? I told you that the owner of Aide Castle Hotel is going to partner with us, that's why he sent someone over to chat with us." Mia was utterly perplexed.
