Chapter 121

Maya's sudden approach caught Mia off guard, sending a ripple of discomfort through her.What move could Maya attempt to pull off next? Mia withdrew her arm with a cold expression, suggesting some distance might be wise."Even if you and Tim part ways, there's no reason we can't remain amicable," Maya retorted.A glint of irony lit up Mia's eyes as she remarked, "Ms. Lane, have you ever seen someone befriend the 'other woman'?"At the mention of "the other woman," Maya's expression instantly darkened.However, under the watchful eyes of Timothy and Grandma Laura, Maya swiftly shifted to feigned vulnerability. "Mia, why the animosity? I truly desire harmony among us all."Without missing a beat, Sharon jumped to Maya's defense, casting a reproachful glance at Mia."Mia, have you no shame? Look at Mia's generosity. Who are you to label her as 'the other woman'?" Sharon reprimanded. "Had you not intervened, Maya might have been my daughter-in-law by now. Imagine, three years ha

Chapter 122

As Mia geared up for some much-needed rest, the unmistakable click of Wilhelmina's heels echoed through the room.Without hesitation, Wilhelmina handed Mia a document and instructed, "Please ensure this reaches its designated destination. Should the client express dissatisfaction, take the necessary steps to make replacements." Mia skimmed the contents of the file before questioning, "Isn't this something you should be handling?"Wilhelmina retorted, "Indeed, it falls under my responsibilities. However, urgent matters demand my attention at the moment.""Besides, considering you've been on duty throughout the entire weekend, it seems fitting for you to manage this. We can't have someone merely drawing a salary without contributing, can we?" she said snidely.With that, Wilhelmina briskly departed.Mia sighed softly, thinking that once she completed this assignment, she could finally head home and rest.She sipped from a cup of warm water, feeling its warmth spread through her,

Chapter 123

Spotting that familiar figure from behind, Mia initially doubted her own eyes.Why would Timothy be here?Maya approached him cheerfully and quipped, "Tim, what brings you here today?"Timothy, clad in a sharp dark suit, was surrounded by a group of individuals who stood with a sense of formality and order.Timothy remained impassive toward Maya. As Timothy's gaze wandered past her, he caught sight of Mia, and a hint of confusion shadowed his expression. Quick to explain, Maya said, "I've been considering a home renovation, and Ms. Bowen's design studio is renowned for its expertise.""Though I enlisted her services, I didn't anticipate her making a personal visit today," she quickly added. Shelly directed Mia, "Mia, why are you lingering outside? Come in and help us with the selection."Steeling herself, Mia approached, deliberately avoiding eye contact with Timothy. Maintaining professionalism, Mia inquired, "Ms. Lane, what specifications are you seeking in a mattress?"

Chapter 124

Timothy's voice adopted a chilling edge. "Why risk your well-being for work?"As Mia took a few steps, her vision blurred, and she collapsed.Instinctively, she braced for a hard impact, but just before hitting the ground, a pair of arms caught her. She was pulled into an embrace that felt both familiar and distant.Struggling to focus, Mia found it difficult to discern the face above her.Timothy gently held Mia, deeply alarmed by the cold sweat that covered her and the evident paleness that had washed over her lips.His eyes narrowed with concern, and without a second thought, he swiftly carried her out of the mall.Maya hurried to catch up, calling out urgently, "Tim!"However, she was a moment too late, and the elevator doors shut, leaving her behind.A scowl darkened Maya's face. "Do you think Mia orchestrated this?" she asked.Shelly caught up, remarking, "It's quite suspicious. Just moments ago, Mia seemed fine, and now she suddenly collapsed, conveniently ending up in

Mia looked at Timothy as he drew near, their noses meeting in an unexpected moment.Caught off guard, she struggled to comprehend Timothy's intentions.In the ensuing moment, Timothy asked in a soft tone, "Do you feel the temperature difference?"Blinking in response, Mia realized his forehead felt as cool as ice.Suddenly, a cough echoed from the side, breaking the tension. "Ahem, be mindful of where you are. This is a hospital," a stern voice reminded them.Timothy quickly composed himself, and Mia, feeling a rush of embarrassment, hastily pulled the blanket over her face.Genevieve, the nurse, addressed the pair, "The patient's family members can wait outside. Those who haven't registered should do so before proceeding."Mia cautiously observed Timothy's departing footsteps through the gap in the blanket, letting out a sigh of relief only when he was out of sight.Finally, he had left.Quietly retracting the blanket, Mia whispered to Genevieve, "Honestly, I'm fine. There's

Chapter 126

Connor's attention shifted from Timothy to Mia lying on the bed, a flicker of suspicion igniting within him.Could the child be Timothy's?Timothy's recurring involvement with the Lane family women only deepened Connor's speculations.Avoiding Connor's penetrating gaze, Mia pleaded softly, "Please prescribe a fever-reducing medication for me. However, given my condition, there are specific drugs I can't take. Please be mindful."Her hushed plea served as a subtle reminder to Connor about her pregnancy, stressing the need for discretion in Timothy's presence.Pushing aside his swirling thoughts, Connor turned to Genevieve, "Prepare the prescription and the necessary medication.""Shouldn't she have an IV drip?" Timothy interjected, shooting a perplexed glance.Annoyed, Connor replied, "IV drips can sometimes do more harm than good.""But her fever is alarmingly high," Timothy countered.Meeting Timothy's challenge with a steely gaze, Connor retorted, "Are you the attending doct

Chapter 127

As Maya looked for Connor, her repeated calls to his phone went unanswered.Was she wrong about her suspicions?Still, the individual in the white coat bore an uncanny resemblance to Connor.Inside the emergency room's infusion area, Mia lay on the bed.The ordeal earlier had made her break into a sweat, but now she seemed to be recovering."Mia, it's time you leveled with me. What's really going on?" a stern voice pressed.As Mia took a sip from her cup, she looked up to find Connor entering the room, startling her and causing her to choke momentarily.Acting quickly, Connor gently patted her back. "Be careful. Let me fetch you another glass of water."Mia let out a cough, casting a vulnerable look toward Connor. Her eyes filled with tears, radiating an air of innocence.Observing his sister's expression, Connor's initial anger dissipated, and genuine concern took its place.He sighed deeply, dragging a chair closer to her bedside."Mia, my intent isn't to reprimand you but

Chapter 128

Mia had quickly come up with a plausible excuse.Noticing Connor's lingering suspicion, she deftly changed the topic, "Connor, how did you figure out it was Timothy who accompanied me to the hospital?"Even though Mia had referenced her role as a caregiver in an affluent household, Timothy had maintained discretion on the matter.So, how did Connor immediately discern that Timothy was the one who had accompanied her?A flicker of hesitation crossed Connor's face.He was familiar with Timothy because Maya felt a longstanding affection for the latter.However, revealing such a connection to his sister was out of the question.After a brief pause, Connor responded, "The registration and payment details displayed the name 'Timothy.' A single glance was enough for me to recognize it."A sudden realization dawned on Mia. She hadn't been aware that Timothy had also taken care of her medical expenses.She delicately touched her belly, feeling a wave of gratitude for running into Conno

Chapter 129

Upon spotting Connor, Maya dashed toward him, her face lit up with surprise and joy. "Connor, is that really you? I almost thought I was imagining things."Connor furrowed his brow subtly and instinctively moved away from the infusion room, aiming to avoid being seen by Mia.Honestly, he now felt a twinge of regret. Why did he ever agree with Dominic to bring Maya home as a replacement sister?Now, each time he encountered his biological sister, Mia, a pang of guilt washed over him.Taking another look at Maya, Connor recognized the absence of a profound emotional bond between them.Given that Maya typically resided with their grandmother, Margaret Sanders, and seldom interacted with him and his brothers, their sibling connection lacked depth.Yet, from a young age, Maya consistently gravitated toward them, often displaying overt efforts to gain their approval.This lingering dynamic was also a reason for Connor's lukewarm feelings toward Maya.With a strained smile, Maya quest

Chapter 130

The intensity of Connor's disapproval toward Timothy seemed to have amplified over time.…Awakening from her slumber, Mia immediately recognized the familiar scent of hospital disinfectant, confirming she was still within the hospital premises.Nonetheless, her condition had improved.It was evident that the medicine Connor recommended had worked effectively."Ms. Bowen, you're awake. Do you need assistance to go to the restroom, or would you prefer something to eat?"Mia looked at the caregiver beside her, puzzled. "Who are you?""I'm Ursula, the caregiver arranged by your family."It seemed that Connor had arranged for a caregiver to assist her.Feeling hungry, Mia politely asked, "Could you please bring me some chicken soup? I'd prefer something light."Just as she voiced her request, Connor walked in, holding a meal box. "Mia, you must be hungry. I brought you some food."Mia appeared confused as she motioned to Ursula next to her. "Connor, didn't you arrange for Ms. St
