Timothy's eyes narrowed slightly. "If this is such a positive sign, why don't you wear it?"

"Your wife purchased this for you, not me."

Leaning back on the sofa, Timothy gazed up at the ceiling. "Honestly, I'm starting to doubt if it's really her."

Considering Mia's personality, he felt that her flirtatious actions beneath the table were something she would never engage in.

"I think there's a high likelihood. It can't just be a coincidence. She's probably still upset about what happened in the past, so she's intentionally trying to tease you. Are you really going to give up so easily, Tim?"

Timothy's eyes narrowed further. "Do you also believe she's just acting?"

"Yes. Why don't you go to her room tonight, Tim, and find out her true intentions? If she's truly Mia, she won't sleep with you. She would just be teasing you intentionally."

Timothy remained silent as he examined the underwear in the box.

Caleb persisted, "Tim, you don't need to worry about Ginger. Tonight, I can look

    As the heir of the esteemed Barrett family, Timothy had always been regarded as a prodigy and had never experienced such disrespect before.His expression hardened instantly. "You'd better keep quiet, or you'll regret it."Timothy was furious.Just as he was preparing to storm out, a woman's voice echoed from within the room. "Are you leaving this quickly just because you're upset?"Timothy's steps faltered, his gaze shifting incredulously toward the room. He hadn't anticipated Mia to be inside.In a fit of rage, Timothy turned abruptly and stormed into the room.Keith attempted to intervene, but Timothy shoved him aside with a single slap.As Timothy stepped into the room, he found Mia seated on the sofa.She wore a black camisole, her long damp hair flowing over her shoulders; it seemed that she had just stepped out of the shower.At the sight of her, Timothy clenched his jaw and demanded, "Have you arranged to meet other men besides me?"His anger was palpable.Before Mia

    Unable to tolerate the situation any longer, Timothy rose to his feet. He glanced at the group of young men, calmly removed his wristwatch, and tossed it outside the door. "Whoever grabs it first can keep it."For a moment, everyone was stunned.Keith sneered, "How much could this watch possibly cost anyway?"Raising an eyebrow, Mia replied, "It's not that expensive, just a little over 80 thousand dollars."The moment her words trailed off, the young men, including Keith, swiftly stood up and dashed toward the door.With a cold expression, Timothy strode over and closed the door, ensuring it was securely locked.The room finally settled into a tranquil atmosphere.Mia arched an eyebrow, glancing at Timothy before her. "Are you seriously going to discard an 80-thousand-dollar watch like that?"Timothy stepped closer, his tone laced with sarcasm. "Looks like your taste in men isn't quite up to par; they're willing to walk away over a mere 80 thousand bucks.""Well, who can resis

    Glancing down at Timothy, Mia couldn't help but notice the shift in his expression. Instinctively, she remarked, "What's wrong? Can’t you comply with this?"Without hesitation, Timothy pushed her aside and rose to his feet.Mia nearly stumbled but managed to steady herself just in time.Observing Timothy by the bedside, Mia remarked, "Mr. Barrett, my proposition seems quite reasonable, wouldn't you agree?"In the depths of her eyes, there was a glimmer of complexity. It dawned on her that she had mistaken him for someone else.Timothy was, in fact, her ex-husband, the scoundrel she had once been married to!Yet, Mia refused to acknowledge it, preferring instead to taunt Timothy before her.Timothy stood by the bed, calmly adjusting his shirt, his heart weighed down by Mia's words.If she truly were Mia, wouldn't she ask about their past instead of making such a proposition at this critical moment?Perhaps it was becoming evident—she might not be Mia after all, just someone bea

    "Well then, do you honestly think you're a virtuous woman worthy of acceptance by the Barrett family?" Mia countered.Luna was taken aback, her expression souring as she recollected her own upbringing. "At least I'm still better than you," she fired back.Mia stood in place as Wade handed her a clean towel. "Ms. Mia, use this to wipe your face," he suggested.Accepting the towel, Mia calmly dabbed the water from her face as she approached Luna.Instinctively, Luna took a few steps back. Seeing Mia in her nightgown, Luna couldn't shake the memory of Timothy and Mia's date at the restaurant, her face contorting with jealousy.The mere thought of Timothy and Mia being together in bed drove Luna to madness.Nonetheless, wasn't Mia supposed to be dead? So why was there another bitch who looked exactly like her?Stepping in front of Luna, Mia slowly twirled the towel in her hand. "I consider myself a reasonable person," she began. "Since you've soaked me from head to toe, why don't we

    Caleb's complexion paled as he took in the scene, a look of shock crossing his features. Turning to Mia, he exclaimed, "Ms. Monalize, are you trying to kill her?"Mia replied nonchalantly, "Luna splashed water on me without any reason. Seeing how much she enjoys water, I'm simply granting her wish. Why would I want her dead?"Pointing toward the dorsal fin visible above the water, Caleb countered, "That's a shark, right? And you're still insisting you're not endangering her life?"At the sound of their voices, Luna raised her head and called out desperately toward the yacht, "Help, Tim!"Mia nonchalantly scratched her ear and glanced at Timothy. "I've always believed in an eye for an eye," she mused. "Whatever others do to me, I'll return it tenfold."Caleb interjected, "But Ms. Monalize, you can't just toy with someone's life like this."Mia's demeanor turned cold as she locked eyes with Caleb. "Do you think I'm joking?"Having said that, she forcefully pushed Caleb into the se

    Caleb found himself speechless and turned to Timothy, urging, "Tim, please say something."Observing Luna's distress in the seawater, Timothy responded coldly, "Apologize to her. Didn't you hear me?""But Tim, I didn't do anything wrong!"Timothy couldn't help but frown. "Then why did you intentionally splash water on her?""Because she's a fraud, she's not Mia at all. I just didn't want you to be deceived!"Noticing Luna's pallid face, Caleb quickly stepped in, saying, "Tim, Luna was just concerned about you. That's why she acted this way."Despite Luna's somewhat extreme actions, Caleb couldn't believe that Monalize would throw Luna into a shark cage. It was just too horrific.Timothy's gaze turned cold as he addressed Luna, "I never asked for your pointless gestures. If you believe you're not at fault, then I have no reason to intervene. You're on your own."With that, Timothy turned on his heel and walked away, showing no intention of lingering.Caleb wasn't the only one t

    In that instance, Luna felt as though her life was hanging by a thread.Caleb swiftly intervened, stepping forward and pleading, "Tim, calm down, please."With a steely expression, Timothy gradually released his grip, allowing Luna to breathe freely once again as she clutched her neck, gasping for air.Caleb couldn't help but sigh. "Luna, you're well aware that Tim can't seem to move on from Mia. Why would you deliberately say something like that to provoke him?"Luna lowered her gaze, concealing the frustration simmering within her; she couldn't bear the thought of losing Timothy to someone else.Returning to her room, Mia stole a glance at the sleeping Ginger before silently heading into the bathroom for a warm shower.As Mia recalled Timothy's haste to rescue Luna earlier, a hint of mockery flickered in her eyes. Suddenly, a wave of dizziness washed over her, causing her head to spin.Mia shut her eyes tightly, bracing herself against the sink as a whirlwind of unfamiliar ima

    It seemed that the relentless rain had finally subsided after several days.This meant that Mia could soon depart from Xanier Island with Ginger.After changing her outfit, Mia escorted Ginger downstairs to the restaurant for a meal.While Mia was picking out food for Ginger, Ginger suddenly glanced to the side and remarked, "Mommy, the nice uncle... no, I mean, the bad guy is here."Mia's expression momentarily froze. She turned her head and spotted Timothy and Caleb entering the restaurant together.The restaurant appeared to be quite busy. Mia stole a glance at them before quickly looking away. "Ginger, concentrate on eating your meal, alright?"With that, Mia turned around and reached for a plate, serving herself her favorite breakfast from the buffet.However, she soon noticed Timothy approaching from the corner of her eye. Despite his presence, she remained focused on selecting her food and didn't acknowledge him.As Timothy drew nearer, Mia quickly turned and walked away

    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,
