Mia pondered on the question as she watched Maya leave. Yet, she was left with no answers.

After a while, Connor emerged from the elevator. He strode toward her.

"Mia, I asked the doctor about your condition. You're probably under too much stress."

She nodded. "I know. The doctor told me."

Connor plopped himself down beside her as he questioned, "Mia, are you hiding something from us?"

Although they found Mia, they still felt like she was keeping a distance from them.

Mia lowered her gaze when she thought of Laura. Yet, she chose to be straightforward about it.

"Actually, it's not a big deal. I'm just worried about my friend's grandma's surgery."

"Oh, this. You should've told me earlier. Well … I called my friend earlier, and he said he's able to perform surgery on your friend's grandma."

"Really?" Mia's eyes lit up. Since Connor said so, there shouldn't be an issue.

This was great news to her!

"However, my friend's quite busy. I'll pay a visit to your friend's grandma w

    Connor remembered he didn't agree to perform surgery on Laura. He had never agreed to this. His eyes glinted coldly as he stroked his chin in thought. Then, the only possibility left would be Maya lying—no wonder she was constantly visiting him these days. In an instant, his perception of her grew worse. How could she lie to him?As he tapped his finger on the table, he said, "Mia, though you worked as a caregiver at the Barrett residence, it seems like they weren't particularly kind to you. "Liam mentioned that Shelly's been bothering you. So, tell me, why are you still willing to help them out?"They were already very displeased with the Barretts for deliberately making things difficult for Mia. Mia avoided his gaze as she replied, "Didn't I mention it before? Grandma Laura has always been kind to me. "She's helped me a lot since Uncle James' predicament. I won't forget this, so I wanted to return the favor." "I see." After pondering on the matter, Connor concluded that

    "Tim, what are you waiting for? Go and help her."Laura drove him out of her ward, which made Mia sigh. In fact, she intended to avoid him. Nonetheless, her pace faltered. She wanted to inform him that she was also looking for a doctor for Laura. When she spun around to face him, his gaze on her was intense. As she met his eyes, she asked, "Have you found a doctor yet?""No." He drawled.Was he still unable to find a doctor? Just as Mia was about to speak, she saw Maya emerging from the elevator. There was a drastic shift in the atmosphere. Maya looked particularly sullen when she stepped out of the elevator. She probably didn't expect Mia to show up as well. After she took a deep breath, she turned toward Timothy and said, "Tim, I need to tell you something."Timothy furrowed his brows as he remained silent. Lowering her gaze, Mia blurted, "Then I'll get going first."She scurried over to the other end of the corridor with the fruits. She had no idea why she heade

    When their eyes met, the tension in the air was palpable. Timothy stiffened as he stared at Connor. What was this man doing here?Just then, Maya caught up with him. When she saw Connor in the office, she was bewildered."Connor? Why are you here?" She darted into the room as a spike of excitement jolted through her. The last person she would expect to bump into here was Connor. Her heart raced as she asked, "Connor, have you finally agreed to perform the surgery?"If it wasn't for this, why would he be here?Connor knitted his brows when he saw Maya. He was flustered that she showed up again. He felt like he was about to have a headache soon. Mia was in the hospital as well. If she found out, everything would be ruined. No, he couldn't expose his identity now!In a composed manner, he answered, "I'm here to check on the patient's condition.""Connor! I knew you cared for me and would definitely agree to it!" Maya couldn't care less and flung her arms around his neck briefl

    Although Connor detested Timothy, he was still going to keep things professional. After all, he was only here for Mia's sake. He wouldn't let her down. Timothy finally said, "When will you start on the surgical plan?"The plan was critical. Cardiac surgeries were usually extremely complicated, and unexpected circumstances were bound to happen. Thus, a detailed surgical plan was needed. Connor replied, "I'll be here again in two days. By then, I'll come up with a plan. I need some time for this, and it shouldn't be rushed." Maya nodded as she chimed in, "He's right. The surgery should be carried out by the end of this month. We still have plenty of time."Connor glanced at his watch. "I have to go."He had to excuse himself to avoid bumping into Mia. He would be in trouble if that happened. How was he going to explain the situation?"Connor, since you're here, why don't we grab a meal together? Despite the misunderstandings we had in the past, we're about to become a family so

    Mia kept her composure despite Maya's snarky remarks. "Can't I be here to check on Grandma Laura? After all, her surgery hasn't been decided."She didn't mention that she had Connor looking for a doctor. However, she wanted to know whether Timothy knew why Maya's brother couldn't perform the surgery.Maya's grin widened. "Is that so? I don't think you have to do that now because my brother has agreed to operate on Grandma Laura. "The surgery will take place by the end of this month, and she'll recover soon."Mia was slightly stunned when she heard her. Instinctively, she glanced over at Timothy. "Really?"There wouldn't be any changes or delays, right?Timothy nodded. "She's right. The surgery is going to take place by the end of this month."Mia lowered her gaze as she muttered, "That's good. I hope everything goes smoothly for Grandma Laura's surgery."In fact, this was also better.Meanwhile, Maya was over the moon. Initially, she thought she completely lost the chance

    Upon hearing Connor's voice, Mia suddenly recalled that Connor was waiting for her.Swiftly, she composed herself, shifting her gaze to meet Connor's as he approached. "Connor," she greeted."Mia, what's the matter? Are those tears in your eyes? Did someone upset you?" Connor inquired with concern.Brushing off his worries, Mia replied, "It's nothing serious. I visited Grandma Laura earlier, and seeing her condition left me feeling a bit emotional."Mia quickly redirected the conversation, adding, "By the way, Connor, I was looking for you earlier. You weren't downstairs.""Speaking of that," Connor began, "As soon as I understood what was happening, I excused myself. I got caught up in a phone call with a friend, and it delayed me."A fleeting hint of guilt flickered in Connor's eyes.Unbeknownst to Mia, Connor had just crossed paths with Maya downstairs.Fortunately, Mia hadn't descended at that moment. Otherwise, he'd be in deep trouble.Ultimately, the six brothers had s

    After ending the call, Wilhelmina cast a glance at Mia. She was determined to prove to Shelly that Mia was truly pregnant.However, there was no need to rush things at that moment.After a moment of contemplation, Wilhelmina opened her WhatsApp and playfully typed, "Hey Keegan, didn't you mention last time that you were looking to meet a talented girl?"Interestingly, there's a colleague in my studio who surpassed me and secured the top spot in that competition. I'll introduce her to you later."With everything arranged, Wilhelmina swiftly approached Felix."Felix, we've just landed a design order for a luxury villa, and the client specifically asked for Mia to take charge of the project," she announced coquettishly."Alright, I'll deliver the order to her later," Felix remarked.With a subtle smile on her lips, Wilhelmina exited the office.Having established a connection with the Barrett family, it seemed appropriate to distance herself from Keegan.Having Mia take her place

    Mia glanced at the name on the business card: "CEO of Keystone Construction."She remembered the company well, having previously assisted Timothy in delivering some documents to them.Back then, the president of Keystone Construction had approached Timothy with an investment proposal for a golf course project.Surprisingly, Timothy had turned down the offer.Yet, Mia later discovered that the golf course had been developed after all.She recalled overhearing Timothy discuss certain issues related to that specific piece of land."Ms. Bowen, I have no concerns with these design drafts—they all look promising to me," Keegan remarked."Let's shift gears for a moment. What do you enjoy doing in your free time? What are your interests?" he continued.Upon hearing this, Mia sensed something was amiss.She stood up and said, "Mr. Stewart, if you haven't settled on the design yet, let's discuss it when you've made your decision."After concluding her words and attempting to leave, she

    None of the major shareholders was a fool.After that, Mia was busy handling Barrett Group affairs and barely had time to rest.With an exhausted look, she returned to the hospital.Mia looked at Timothy and said, "I'll run away if you don't wake up soon.""No… Please don't go…" Timothy grabbed her hand. His gaze was deep.Mia's eyes reddened as she gazed at the man who had just regained consciousness. Timothy finally came out of his coma.After that, everything was back to normal. Those who caused trouble quieted down.Sharon visited Timothy and told him that she was going to settle down overseas and would not come back anymore.Timothy bought her a property and gave her a huge sum of money before sending her away from Bern City.As for Maya, it was discovered that she was not the granddaughter of the Prime Minister of Yellow Island but merely his caregiver.

    Sage stood beside Timothy in silence.Soon, news that Timothy was hospitalized spread, and Barrett Group's stock plunged.The relatives of the Barrett family requested to hold a board meeting to elect another CEO.On the day of the board meeting, Mia brought her two children to Barrett Group.They managed to keep everyone on a leash as Sage bore a striking resemblance to Timothy.Mia marched into the meeting room, sat in Timothy's chair, and glanced at everyone present. "Let's begin. Didn't you all want to have a meeting?"One of the middle-aged men said, "Ms. Lane, this is the Barrett Group board meeting. It's not appropriate for you to be here.""That's right. Though the kids are Mr. Barrett's children, they're still young and do not have any shares. You all shouldn't be here."Mia flung a document onto the table. "This is an agreement signed by Grandma Laura to authorize me to manage Timothy's shares.""Anyway, we still need to elect a CEO to handle our company affairs.""

    "Because to me, you're my family too," Timothy said.When Sharon heard the word 'family', her eyes turned red. Then, she turned around and left the ward.Mia walked out and asked Peyton to send Sharon to the hospital for a checkup.Looking at Sharon's back, Mia said, "I hope you don't let him down since he regards you as his family. He's the only one you can depend on now."Sharon did not turn her head around. Mia did not know if Sharon would listen to her advice.Mia immediately called her brother. "Dominic, I met Maya."She then told him everything about Maya.Dominic frowned. "I never thought she would go to Yellow Island.""Do you think she's really the granddaughter of the Prime Minister of Yellow Island?""Don't you know how good she is at lying?" Dominic said.Mia nodded. "Yeah, you're right. But I still don't know whether she's related to Yellow Island.""Don't worry, I'll find out."When Mia returned to the ward after ending the call, she saw a doctor bustling arou

    Mia went straight to the hospital to ask Timothy about the matter.But when she arrived, someone had reached there earlier than her."Timothy, what do you mean? All I did was pull a few strings, but you want to humiliate me publicly. How am I going to maintain my standing in the company?" Sharon said.Mia went in with a frown. "This is funny. It's not just about pulling a few strings, but it's aimed at me. Mrs. Barrett, your actions have leaked confidential commercial information.""Stop trying to scare me. It's my son who opened doors for you. It's the Yellow Islanders who wanted to collaborate with us, and they are much better than you," Sharon retorted. Mia said with a half-hearted smile, "At first, I didn't want to pursue this matter. But since you put it this way, wait for my lawyer's letter then.""Such big talk, huh?" A mysterious-looking woman wearing a hat and a mask walked in from outside.Mia felt that the woman looked somewhat familiar. "Are you the rumored granddau

    Mia glanced at the person on the screen. Without answering the woman, she turned off the laptop.After all, there was no need for Mia to explain anything.After Mia turned off the laptop assertively, she turned around and looked at Timothy. He did not say a word but started eating.Soon, Heath received a call. He left the ward and said to the woman on the other side of the phone, "She's Mr. Barrett's ex-wife. You'd better not mess with her."While Timothy was eating, Mia finished reading the proposal in her hand.She had to admit that the document was very valuable.Mia was about to leave the ward when Timothy almost finished eating, but his voice sounded behind her. "What did you say when you met her at the cafe earlier?""Did you follow me?""I followed her, to be exact. After all, the Hopkins are not good people."Mia totally agreed with that.She paused briefly before she said, "Grandma Laura asked me to talk to her because she doesn't agree with you about giving her all

    "You don't know anything," Sharon said.Mia retorted, "I might not know everything, but Timothy is innocent. Before he knew the truth, he always regarded you as his mother. Even after he found out the truth, he has never mistreated you."Besides, when you said you wanted the Barrett family's wealth, he agreed. Tell me, who else could do what he did?"Mia felt that Timothy might have been hurt by Sharon's words.He seemed impressive on the outside, but his identity was a dark secret.Therefore, his relationship with Sharon became awkward.Sharon's eyes reddened. "But I also treat him like my biological son.""You're also his foster mother. Now everyone related to him is dead, and you're the only one he has. What are you afraid of?"Sharon wiped off her tears. "I'm not afraid of anything. It's just that I felt that I can't trust anyone.""Timothy is a man of his word. However, Grandma Laura said that if you remain stubborn, making the will public is her only option," Mia said.

    Mia noticed Sharon's expression changing slightly when she mentioned Laura.Sharon took her cup of coffee and said, "What? Does Mrs. Barrett Senior still want to lecture me even when she's on her deathbed? She must have known Timothy's identity all along, but she conspired with her son to keep the truth from me. "She and the Barretts are birds of a feather. What else does she have to say?"Mia was not surprised by her words. She had expected that Sharon would certainly think this way.Fortunately, she managed to stop Laura when she said she wanted to meet Sharon.Sharon was emotionally unstable now. What if Laura said something unpleasant and Sharon retorted? Her words might upset Laura.Mia took a kraft envelope out of her handbag and placed it in front of Sharon. "I hope you won't regret saying those words after reading this.""What's this?""This is the will that your husband left behind, as well as the divorce agreement."Hearing that, Sharon quickly took the document out

    Mia hesitated to risk exposing Laura to Sharon's potential agitation.Due to Sharon's emotional vulnerability, she often spoke impulsively. With Laura's delicate health in mind, any disruption was simply out of the question.As Laura recounted past events, Mia remained silent, absorbing her words.Upon hearing Laura's story, Mia was taken aback. She hadn't expected there to be hidden aspects to Timothy's family history.Taking a moment, she asked, "Does Timothy have any knowledge of this?""He doesn't. Some things are best kept from him," Laura replied calmly.Mia harbored some lingering questions in her mind. Unable to suppress them any longer, she asked, "Considering your knowledge of Timothy's background, what is your opinion of him?""Tim is a commendable young man, and he has never let our family down. He has achieved remarkably well for himself. To be honest, I feel indebted to him as well."At first, I only kept him around for the sake of preserving the Barrett family li

    Despite her initial reluctance, Mia eventually found herself making her way to Timothy's ward.As she entered, she couldn't help but notice Timothy's expressionless demeanor as he lay there.Carrying a tray of food, Mia approached him. "The doctor pointed out your extreme fatigue. It's crucial that you increase your food intake and prioritize proper rest to reduce the risk of sudden complications."Upon hearing Mia's voice, Timothy lifted his gaze to find her seated beside him. His lips moved slightly as he asked, "What did you tell Luna?""Not much," Mia responded. "Just a sprinkle of salt on the wound and a dash of psychological pressure to make sure Luna doesn't have it easy in prison."Placing the tray of food in front of him, Mia urged, "Please, just a few bites.""I'll eat later. By the way, the kids have been here at the hospital for quite a while. You should take them home," Timothy suggested.Frowning, Mia insisted, "You should eat something first."As her words faded,
