Mia found Timothy's actions somewhat perplexing; the divorce agreement explicitly stated that he would be required to transfer all his shares to her.Following Jason's stipulations, Timothy would essentially be walking away from their marriage without any assets.Mia couldn't understand how Timothy could remain so composed in the face of it all!Timothy reclined in his chair, gazing at Mia. "I'm not feeling rushed at all. Why are you so anxious?"Mia was taken aback. Had she heard him correctly?She couldn't help but chuckle in exasperation."Timothy, if you're not feeling pressured, then I'll simply take this divorce agreement to the Barrett Group's office tomorrow, and I suppose I'll assume your role as CEO."After saying those words, Mia noticed that Timothy showed no signs of anger. Instead, a playful smile appeared on his lips."Well, that sounds like a plan. The office workload has been overwhelming lately, and I think it's about time for me to take a break."If you ever

Maya's voice, filled with despair and sorrow, echoed in Mia's ears. She, too, couldn't believe what was unfolding before her.Eventually, Timothy pulled away and looked at Mia, whose expression reflected disbelief. A soft chuckle escaped him. "I suppose this explanation was even more convincing," he remarked.Mia was left speechless, utterly bewildered by the turn of events.She gazed at Timothy's striking, intense features up close, her frustration evident as she clenched her jaw.In a swift motion, Mia lifted her hand to strike him, but Timothy quickly caught her wrist, his palm radiating warmth against hers.With a firm hold, Timothy drew Mia into his embrace, pinching her chin as he spoke in a deep voice, "Were you about to hit me?"Mia shot back loudly, "And what if I was?""Well, you could have. Haven't you heard the saying, 'A married couple may quarrel, but they still sleep in the same bed'?" Timothy teased, releasing Mia's hand.His narrow eyes locked onto hers, implyi

Mia was taken aback as she looked at the shredded papers, marveling at how swiftly Maya had torn through the thick document.She seemed to be genuinely furious.With the papers now reduced to fragments, Maya fixed a piercing glare on Mia. "You won't be able to sign it now," she stated firmly.With Mia unable to sign the divorce document, its validity was unquestionably voided.Mia kept her silence, directing her gaze at Timothy instead. She inquired, "What's our next step?"Mia understood that she couldn't intervene directly, but she also discerned that Maya had indirectly presented a solution. With the document torn to shreds, its legal validity was now nullified.Seeing the hint of satisfaction in Mia's eyes, Timothy's smile vanished instantly. Speaking calmly, he remarked, "I have another copy."Mia was completely shocked by this revelation.Meanwhile, Maya's cries grew even louder.Despite nearly losing her temper, Mia chose to respond with a smile upon noticing Maya's dis

Mia felt as if she were purging everything from her stomach.Could it be caused by something she ate for lunch?As Mia paused, a bottle of mineral water was offered to her. She couldn't help but notice Timothy's long, elegant fingers as he handed it over.Mia didn't hesitate to take the water, quickly opening it and having a few sips, which instantly revitalized her.However, she felt some discomfort and gently touched her lower abdomen, unable to pinpoint the cause but sensing that something was wrong.Furrowing his brow, Timothy glanced at Mia's stomach. "What's wrong?""It's nothing serious, just feeling a bit nauseous from the greasy meal I had earlier."Mia didn't think her nausea was a major concern, as she had been managing her pregnancy quite well, with only occasional morning sickness.As she prepared to leave, Timothy held her wrist, his gaze intense. "You should go to the hospital for a check-up," he said firmly.Mia looked at him, surprised by his sudden concern, a

Upon seeing the caller ID displaying "Claudie", Timothy's brow furrowed in confusion. Who could Claudie possibly be?He continued to stare at Mia's phone which was ringing persistently.Unable to resist any longer, Timothy eventually picked up the phone.Claude's voice greeted him from the other end, "Mia, I'm at the university entrance. Have your lectures finished? I'm waiting for you outside."Upon hearing a male voice, Timothy's demeanor immediately turned cold. "She doesn't need you to wait for her.""Who is this?"As Timothy answered the call, Claude's expression darkened. "Let's keep this conversation civil. Maybe you should let Mia go first. Whether you're after money or want to discuss terms, that's your call."Timothy was taken aback. He had never been in need of money before.His lips pressed together into a thin line. "That's something I should be saying. In the future, perhaps you and your family should stay away from Mia. Otherwise, don't expect me to be forgiving.
