Chapter 880

Author: Red Thirteen
"Are you truly not bothered by it anymore?" Eva asked.

Mia responded earnestly, "That's right. Now, I'm living comfortably as the heiress of the Lane family, with everything I desire at my fingertips. How could I possibly care about a worthless ex-husband?"

"It's good that you've reached that perspective. You heard Timothy earlier—he's not motivated by love for you.

"Perhaps it's his guilt regarding Ginger that drives him to cling to you, seeking to make amends. These are just empty words from a man. Hear them out, but don't let them weigh on your heart," Eva advised.

Gripping her fork, Mia's gaze drifted downward as she softly replied, "I understand."

For four years, Mia had been aware that Timothy didn't love her.

Now, she certainly wouldn't assume that Timothy stuck around out of affection for her.

"Mia, men like Timothy aren't quick to fall in love. Those entrenched in the ruthless world of business often have their hearts hardened by their ambitions. Sincerity is a commodi

I think after reading this book. I'm done with this app. I've spent way too much money to read this one book, and I don't like how I have to wait to finish. Don't put the book on the page if it's not finished. It's not a television series. I refuse to spend money to finish this book!!!

    Mia's eyes shot open. She finally remembered!That tattoo was exactly the same as the one on Luna's ankle!Mia propped herself up in bed, wondering, "Did Luna attack me in the bedroom and frame another person?"Dana was the culprit caught and Mia knew that Dana had always hated her.When Mia connected the dots, things started to make more sense to her.It was no wonder Luna suddenly brought over Dana, claiming that she had caught the culprit when everyone wanted to check the surveillance footage. Mia failed to smell the scheme back then. Now that she thought about it, something was off.Luna surely played an important role in this scheme.Reorganizing the clues in her head, Mia was determined to find out whoever hurt Laura and hold the culprit accountable.The next day, Mia woke up tired.Last night, she dozed off while reorganizing the clues of the incident.The medical staff did their rounds in the morning.Two nurses were gushing in an undertone, "I heard that there's a

    Mia propped her chin up. "I was wondering what to do with them. If you guys take it upon yourselves to handle the matter, what is there left for me to do then?"It felt better to do it herself than to have someone else do the work for her.Due to her capable brothers, she often felt useless because there was nothing for her to do; her brothers would always teach those bad guys a lesson in her stead!Connor ruffled her hair. "Mia, you're our sister. It is normal for us to want to deal with this kind of matters for you. All you have to do is be the Lane family's princess, free from woes. No one can bully you. Only you can bully others."Her family's love for her knew no limits. It was fortunate that she didn't grow up spoiled. Connor withdrew his hand, although he hadn't had enough of patting her head. "I heard that the Bowens are going to work with the Barretts to confront us. Is that right?"Noticing the hostility in his tone, she coughed. "I asked Timothy about it, but he doe

    A pair of big sunglasses was covering Mia's face as she strode over in heels.The people surrounding Timothy retreated backward.One of the ladies looked at her. "Are you trying to flirt with him too? Get in line."Another lady chimed in, "Learn your manners. We came first."To Mia's surprise, the ladies started to pick on her.She adjusted her sunglasses over her nose bridge before glancing in Timothy's direction. "You should tell them if I have to get in line."He walked to her side without hesitation. "You'll forever be the first to me."Mia eyed the ladies. "Hear that? Leave, now." One of the ladies didn't give up. "Even if you don't have to get in line, we have the right to call for a fair competition. And I think you're misunderstanding something, miss. We're not here to steal your man. We're trying to offer him the opportunity to be a star."It doesn't matter what kind of relationship you have with him. I'm trying to convince him to sign with our company so that he can

    Timothy stared at Mia. "Why are you so worried about me meeting our child?"His answer angered her. "Timothy Barrett, if I hadn't taken you in as my bodyguard, you wouldn't even have the chance to come close to my child. Let alone see her. I wouldn't even let you have a video call with her. Stop crossing the line."As soon as she finished, a man chimed in, "Mia Lane, why did you hurt my mother? You should've just come for me!"Mia looked back only to find Lewis coming over with braces. He looked furious."The Bowens are literally everywhere," she thought to herself.She sized him up. "You have the guts to confront me in person. And you're wondering why I hurt your mother? Let me talk some sense into you here. She told people to surround me in the restroom and hit me till I suffered a concussion."He barked, "That's because your bodyguard hit me first. She went up to you to settle the score.""And because your mother hit me, my brothers are going to deal with her. It's fair, don'

    "What a joke. How could a penniless bodyguard be the president of Barrett Group? If he's the president of Barrett Group, I'll swallow the contract," Lewis chided.Timothy smirked. "That won't be enough."Lewis rolled his eyes, "Oh lord, do you seriously think that you're the president of Barrett Group? Enough already. You won't be able to handle the consequences, dude."Mia quipped, "Don't forget whose territory this is. If you cause trouble here, you are the one who won't be able to handle the consequences."With a wave from Peyton, a group of bodyguards swarmed over.When Lewis noticed that he was outnumbered, he got cold feet and wanted to chicken out. After all, he had already lost two teeth because of them.He growled, "Just you wait! Once I sign the contract with the president of Barrett Group, I won't let both of you get away with this."How would the Bowen family react when they find out that the bodyguard next to Mia was actually the president of Barrett Group? Mia lo

    "That doesn't matter as long as they can go to the subsidiary to investigate the issue.""Why aren't you going to solve it yourself? It's causing a big impact.""If they can't even solve such a trivial problem, they should hand in their resignation letters." Timothy's tone was steely, completely fit for his position as the president.He added, "Isn't this what you want? To solve the matter regarding the Bowens."Mia took a deep breath. Needless to say, she wished for the Bowens to face the consequences they deserved. However, this was the one chance for her to send him back to Bern City as soon as possible! That way, she and her kids wouldn't need to stay under the radar to avoid getting caught by him."But the Bowens looked down upon you and scolded you. Shouldn't you return to Bern City to teach them a lesson in person?" She didn't give up."This is too trivial a matter for me to show up in person."Silence dawned upon her. It seemed like he wasn't planning to leave the pla

    Mia pretended not to notice the icy stare from Timothy. In fact, she found him annoying since the day she recovered her memories.If the Lane family hadn't found her, it would've been tough for her to raise two children all alone.Besides, it would've been easy for Timothy to win custody of her children, without her brothers' defense.The Lanes' power and authority was why Timothy was willing to go as far as putting himself down to be her bodyguard.Mia was clearly aware of the reason behind it, hence the constant self-reminder to keep staying rational; she kept reminding herself not to be charmed by his fake persona.She looked at Nicholas. "I'll be discharged from the hospital today. Eva told me to eat at home. If you have time, fancy having a meal together at our place?""Sure, I have nothing to do in the afternoon anyways." Nicholas obviously noticed Timothy, and he was surprised by the latter's presence. The alarm in him rang off, as he knew what kind of relationship Tim

    Nicholas stepped forward. "I was the one by Mia's side when she was having a hard time trying to keep Ginger that year. She had to stay in bed in the hospital for a whole month to prevent miscarriage. "You don't know how much she has suffered, so what gives you the right to make decisions when it comes to the child?"Timothy didn't back off. "I didn't know anything about it that year. If I knew what was happening then, I would've stayed by her side to protect them.""Enough. You had your first love with you back then. We won't buy that, we're not fools. I'm not going to let you come close to Mia or hurt her," Nicholas asserted.Nicholas witnessed how Mia overcame her struggles all these years. She suffered a lot in delivering the twins. There was no way he would let Timothy intrude into Mia's life now.Timothy gazed at Mia. "I was wrong that year, so I want to—""But I don't need you to make up for it," Mia interrupted him. "Mr. Barrett, I have everything I need now. I don't n

    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,
