Meet My Brothers

Mia caught on Connor’s expression and something seemed off to her. “Connor, you’re acting out of character today.”

“Am I? It’s probably because of work,” Connor attempted to brush it off.

“Go ahead. You have a meeting, don’t you? I’ll keep Mrs. Barrett Senior company,” Mia decided not to pry further.

He nodded. “I’ll take you to the hospital for a prenatal checkup in the afternoon.”

Watching her getting close to the Barrett family was the last thing he asked for, but he was aware of how attached Mia could be.

Before the Lane brothers began taking care of Mia, Laura looked after her so he couldn’t force her to leave Laura.

Everything would be settled once he brought her out of Nord City, away from the Barretts.

Mia watched Connor take the stairs to the floor beneath. A faint sigh escaped her lips.

After washing some fruits, she headed to the patient’s room. The door opened the moment she approached the door.

Timothy walked out of the room, standing right in front of her. His tall stature gave more pressure when he closed in on her.

Holding her breath and a plate of fruits, Mia met his deep eyes.

He lowered his voice. “Mia Bowen, I don’t care about your private life, but this is the hospital Grandma stays at. Have you never thought of the consequences if she catches you guys red- handed?”

She gulped down the bitterness and replied softly, “I don’t want to pick a fight with you. Grandma’s surgery is around the corner. Make way please.”

He grabbed her wrist, his palm warm. He gazed at her. “Do you think that I’m trying to put up a fight with you? Since you’re so desperate to throw yourself at another man, I won’t stop you. But I have a request. Don’t let Grandma know about this before she recovers from the surgery.”

She shook her arm, attempting to fling his hand away. “Don’t worry. I won’t let her know. As for you, you’re involved in another engagement and scandal as though you’re trying to tell her the truth. You are the one who should be careful.”

Timothy was taken aback by her rebuttal. His face darkened at the thought of the reason he got engaged to Maya. “That shouldn’t be coming from you. If it weren’t for you-”

“Enough. I don’t want to hear anything about your engagement,” she interrupted.

So what if she didn’t show up as the person in charge during the engagement ceremony? Did she have anything to do with the engagement being called off? How could he blame her for that?

She stood her ground and addressed him firmly. “Mr. Barrett, I hope Grandma is the only topic we talk about in the future. Nothing else. Once her surgery is over, we can proceed with the divorce procedures at the courthouse. Then, we’ll go our separate ways.”

Frustration welled up in him as he looked at her determined expression.

Previously, he almost lost himself and punched Connor when he saw them hugging.

However, he himself found his emotion strange. Mia was affecting his mood! Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Whoever she was with shouldn’t have bothered him.

Still, he couldn’t shake off the roller coaster of emotions she put him through. This was unfamiliar to him. It was out of his control.

He released her from his grip, a mix of feelings clouding his eyes. “Mia, I’ll say this one last time- you and Connor are not meant for each other.”

The fact that Timothy misunderstood her relationship with her brother amused her. Tilting her head, she questioned, “Timothy Barrett, do you have feelings for me?“
