Semua Bab Meet My Brothers: Bab 101 - Bab 110

Timothy's face remained stoic. "Do you believe that divorce is the solution?""Well, I intend to convince Grandma to undergo the surgery," Mia asserted.Timothy's eyes narrowed as he inquired, "And how do you plan on doing that?"Mia hesitated momentarily before replying, "That's none of your concern."At that moment, the hospital room's door swung open, revealing Martha. "Ms. Mia, Mrs. Barrett Senior wishes to have a conversation with both you and Mr. Barrett. She has matters to discuss."Standing close by, Maya interjected with a hopeful smile, "I've also come to visit Mrs. Barrett Senior.""I regret to inform you that Mrs. Barrett Senior has no intention of seeing you," Martha responded awkwardly. A rigid expression settled on Maya's face. She watched with resentment as Timothy entered the room with Mia. Mia felt the weight of Maya's intense gaze on her as she entered the hospital room. Nonetheless, she couldn't let herself be distracted by it.She held Laura's cold hands

In that moment, a glimmer of hope flickered in Mia's eyes.Watching her frazzled appearance and wavering posture, Timothy noticed her deep almond eyes, their darkness exuding a sense of vulnerability and longing.That brief interaction momentarily softened his heart.Without hesitation, he stepped forward, clasping Mia's hand to steady her.Mia had braced herself for a fall, convinced that Timothy would favor Maya in any conflict between them.Much to her surprise, Timothy decisively stood by her side this time.Drawing closer to him, Mia gazed at him in disbelief. Her heart pounded, a blend of relief and anxiety.The chilling thought of what could have transpired had she stumbled, especially for their unborn child, was too distressing to imagine.Suddenly, Maya's voice rang out, carrying a subtle undertone of resentment as she called, "Tim!"Turning her gaze, Mia saw Maya still on the floor, her eyes showing signs of redness, nearly on the verge of tears.Mia blinked, surpri

Why did Timothy need assurance about her ability to convincingly play the role of a pregnant woman?Mia thought for a moment, wondering why pretense was necessary. Considering she was genuinely pregnant, wouldn't this be an authentic portrayal?In response, Mia sincerely asked, "Is acting even necessary in this case?""You're right. You've always had a knack for acting," Timothy acknowledged. "Don't overthink it. Martha will be here to assist you, ensuring you maintain the facade without arousing suspicion.""Mr. Barrett, rest assured, I'll execute my role flawlessly. It's high time you prioritize scheduling that surgery."Mia had no intention of confronting Maya herself, she thought it would be more suitable for Timothy to handle the matter.Well aware of Maya's inclination to feign innocence, Mia expected her to continue the act in front of Timothy. Consequently, there should be no delay in the surgery from Maya's end.Exiting the car, Mia entered the living room with Timoth

Mia hadn't anticipated Timothy revisiting this question, and it was getting increasingly difficult for her to respond.With a hint of condescension, Timothy watched her struggle. "Having trouble answering?" he teased."Not exactly," Mia replied, pausing briefly as she met his gaze. "So, would you prefer the truth or a fabrication?" she asked."... Perhaps silence would be best," Timothy retorted indifferently before walking away.As Mia took a step forward, she noticed the dog standing beside her, its tail wagging eagerly as it looked at her.She stopped in her tracks, and instinctively stepped back. "Please, stay right there," she implored, her eyes fixed on the dog.While she held no ill will toward the creature, suppressed childhood fears surfaced as the dog moved closer."Here, boy."Just as Mia contemplated a quick escape, Timothy, who had just disappeared into obscurity moments ago, reappeared to rescue Mia.Beneath the soft glow of the streetlight, he reached out his ha

Timothy immediately sat up, his tone growing colder, "What happened?"Despite meticulous efforts to secure the right doctor for Laura's surgery, the expectation remained that a smooth procedure would welcome them on their arrival."Unfortunately, the doctor's been involved in a car accident, and is currently undergoing treatment at the hospital.""I'm heading there right away," Timothy declared, throwing off the covers and going to the closet to get dressed.The call had also roused Mia, who lay next to him. Hearing the urgency in Timothy's voice, she couldn't help but wonder if complications had arisen at his workplace.Timothy emerged from the closet shortly after, dressed and wearing a somber expression.Rubbing her eyes, Mia asked, "What's going on?"After a brief pause, Timothy assured, "It's nothing major."Without revealing specifics about the doctor, he promptly left.Rushing to the hospital, Timothy found Heath waiting outside the emergency room."Mr. Barrett, the d
