Eventually, as Mia grappled with guilt over the engagement incident, she found it challenging to turn down Felix's offer.

However, upon stepping outside, Mia was taken aback to find a familiar Volkswagen car. "Dominic?" she exclaimed.

The car screeched to a halt, and Connor emerged, swiftly approaching Mia. "Mia, are you okay?"

"Connor?"

Upon spotting Dominic's car, Mia initially assumed he had arrived, only to discover that it was actually Connor.

Mia responded somewhat oddly, "Connor, I'm fine."

"Your phone has been off the entire time! We were really worried!"

Mia felt a pang of guilt. "My phone accidentally broke, and I've been too caught up with work to get it fixed."

Felix added, "Yeah, Mia was occupied at the engagement venue for a while. We just returned to the studio."

Puzzled, Connor inquired, "Mia, did you make it to the engagement ceremony? When did you get there?"

"I got there quite late. It was over two hours ago. What's going on, Connor?"

Connor glanced at Fel

    Unexpectedly, Mia spotted Timothy in the vicinity.He stood in front of the counter, clutching a mobile phone that seemed more suited for women.Who could he be purchasing the phone for?Was it possibly intended for Maya?It made sense, considering Timothy had just gotten engaged to Maya earlier in the day.Mia quickly averted her gaze, feigning ignorance about Timothy's presence.Connor, too, caught sight of Timothy and furrowed his brow in disapproval. He had heard rumors that Timothy had called off the engagement earlier.It seemed his suspicions were valid.Considering Timothy's lack of affection for Maya, it seemed probable that his agreement to the engagement was influenced by a deal involving Laura's surgery.Even so, Connor harbored a dislike for Timothy, especially because of Timothy's apparent interest in Mia.Connor suddenly became a bit wary. "Mia, how do you feel about the newest model of this brand's smartphone?"Mia, who was standing nearby, glanced at the pho

    Upon hearing Mia's words, Connor instantly felt a wave of relief. He couldn't help but appreciate her kindness, sensibility, and adorable nature.Connor made a mental note to stay vigilant, ensuring that no man would dare to harbor feelings for Mia, especially someone like Timothy—a mature, divorced individual.Connor was determined to eliminate any possibility of a romantic connection between Mia and Timothy.Timothy couldn't help but overhear Mia's sweet and coquettish words to Connor.When had she ever spoken to him like that?A peculiar sensation enveloped Timothy—a tightness in his chest, making each breath a struggle. He had never experienced such a feeling before.In response, Timothy placed the phone directly on the table and stated, "I don't want it anymore."He made a decisive choice not to purchase the phone.Regret seeped in as Timothy realized he shouldn't have come to the store in the first place.In the next instant, Connor swiftly seized the phone and gave Timo

    At the sound of Timothy's voice, Mia and Connor instinctively held their breath, a collective sense of guilt lingering in the air.They turned around, exchanging cautious looks in Timothy's direction.As Timothy approached Mia, she nervously stammered, "I-Is there something?"Connor couldn't shake his distrust of Timothy, disliking the way he scrutinized Mia.Timothy came to a halt and offered his hand.Noticing the SIM card in Connor's palm, Mia belatedly recalled her earlier misconception about it being inserted upside down. She had intended to rectify it, but Connor approached them just as she was on the verge of doing so. Concerned that he might uncover her connection to Timothy, Mia hurriedly left with Connor.In her haste, she neglected to correctly insert the SIM card.Clearing her throat, Mia uttered, "Thank you."As she was about to grab it, Connor preemptively took the SIM card from Timothy's hand. "Mia, why are you so careless? Keep the SIM card safe. I'll assist y

    Mia let out a gasp, comprehending the unfolding situation.If Bob and Mary were to discover that Gia wasn't carrying Ted's child, the repercussions could be chaotic.Nonetheless, the notion brought a hint of satisfaction to Mia.Mia couldn't suppress a yawn, a clear testament to the day's busyness that had left her fatigued. Simultaneously, she couldn't shake off the lingering ache in her stomach.Sensing Mia's discomfort, Connor promptly shifted the conversation. "Let's grab a bite. The important thing is that Mia is back safely."After all, he had already arranged for someone to give Bob and Mary a stern warning, making it unlikely for them to return.After dinner, Mia withdrew to her room, feeling genuinely fatigued and in need of rest.Upon waking the next day, Mia instinctively checked the headlines, anticipating news about Timothy and Maya's engagement.Considering Maya's penchant for seeking attention, Mia assumed there would be discreetly shared photos of their engageme

    Upon hearing Fabian's words, Mia couldn't help but find Bob and Mary's actions utterly ridiculous.In this modern era, the concept of being married off to an older man from the countryside with a bribe seemed absurd to her.Did they truly think they could control her with such outdated methods?Suddenly, Felix rushed out and forcefully pushed Fabian away. "What are you doing? If you cause any more trouble, I'll call the police!"Seated on the ground, Fabian insisted, "I offered Mia's family a ten-thousand-dollar bribe, and consequently, we're now engaged. That amount constitutes my yearly savings."Mia, you must come back home with me and bear me a son!"Mia cast a cold gaze at Fabian. "Are you insane? I've cut all ties with my adoptive parents. Whatever they choose to do with the money has no bearing on me.""I don't care. After all, Bob and Mary are still considered your family. Since they've accepted my bribe, you are essentially my wife now!"Felix snorted. "What century ar

    Observing the unfolding situation, Felix was suddenly gripped by fear. However, amidst the apprehension, he discerned an opportunity to heighten their intimidation.He cautioned, "Stay back. This is a lawful society, monitored by surveillance cameras everywhere. Do you really think you can escape?"People like you belong in rural areas, secluded in the mountains. Spare yourselves the shame and never come out—"As he concluded his statement, Felix's head was violently struck by an assailant.With blood streaming down his injured head, Mia, in a state of panic, exclaimed, "Felix, are you okay?"Within a fleeting moment, Felix collapsed to the ground.In a bid to call for help, Mia tried to retrieve her phone, but her hands and feet were bound, and she was forcibly taken away.A shabby van was conveniently parked nearby, and Mia found herself tossed into the back seat. It dawned on her that these individuals had come prepared.She realized she had been too careless.As Fabian got

    Mia's heart soared with newfound hope as the sound of the helicopter reached her ears.The sudden appearance of the aircraft couldn't be a mere coincidence.Mia couldn't help but wonder if it might be her brothers coming to her rescue.Fabian's vigilance heightened as he sat in the passenger seat. "Could it be the police?" he questioned.Ronald, behind the wheel, chuckled and brushed off the idea. "Fabian, have you been watching too many movies? Why would the police show up in a helicopter?"We've been down this route countless times. What could possibly go wrong?""What's the helicopter doing here, then? We've never seen one in this area before.""It could be for tourism, or perhaps the TV station is filming some aerial shots."Fabian found Ronald's explanation to be somewhat plausible. After all, the prospect of a helicopter coming to rescue Mia seemed far-fetched, considering their high cost.Before long, Ronald remarked, "Look, the helicopter is flying away. I told you it

    Mia was taken aback by Timothy's response.Instead of offering the comforting words she had anticipated, he simply advised her to bear the pain.Despite this, Mia recognized that, given the current circumstances, enduring was the only viable option.Contrary to his seemingly stern words, Timothy's actions were remarkably gentle.Just then, Mia's attention was diverted by desperate screams emanating from the other side.She tried to look, but several men in camouflage blocked her view.From the sounds, it appeared that her abductors were facing some form of reprimand.Lowering her gaze, Mia noticed a bandage snugly wrapped around her ankle. She couldn't help but be captivated by Timothy's profile, emanating both charm and elegance.Mia found herself stunned, gazing into Timothy's blue eyes.Awkwardly averting his gaze, Timothy inquired, "Are there any other places that hurt?"Clearing her throat, Mia replied, "No, I'm fine."Shifting her body slightly backward, she stole anot

    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. Yet, she had been deceiving people outside.After Maya was exposed, she ran away dejectedly. Nobody knew where she was

    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,
