Mia's blatant confrontation evoked more questions in Timothy. He was expecting her to feel guilty after he put it explicitly. However, her attitude was free from guilt and nervousness. She only appeared surprised.He had faith in his observation skills when it came to reading people's emotions. Yet, he failed to read anything from her face.His heart sank. He instantly nodded. "Yes. Guess there's no need to keep up with the act anymore."Mia sighed upon realizing that she had guessed correctly. She then leaned back in the chair, hand resting on the armrest. A knowing smirk touched her lips, and a shift in the atmosphere hinted at a newfound confidence. "Mr. Barrett, with all due respect, your flirting skills are old-fashioned. Even soap operas have moved beyond these tired clichés. What makes you think I'd fall for it?" Disappointment gnawed at her. She'd held onto the hope that he was different. Yet, here he was, mirroring the same tired patterns. He was no less different from

That idea put Dominic off. He didn't want Mia to meet Timothy because he was worried about the past repeating itself. Eva comforted Dominic and then called Mia. The line got through immediately. "Hello, Eva. What's up?""No biggie. I'm just checking in on you. How are things going on over at Xanier Island? Are you adapting well? I heard that the airport is closed because of the heavy pour.""Yup. The rain is different from the usual one. We'll need to extend our stay for several days. We'll return when the rain stops, and it's safe to fly." Mia had a nagging feeling that there was something unusual about Eva's sudden call. She couldn't help but wonder if Eva had somehow learned that Caleb was on Xanier Island. All these years, her family had avoided mentioning her ex-husband to spare her feelings. She had assumed Eva's call was to urge her to return home promptly, but as it turned out, it was just a casual conversation. After Mia ended the call, a suspicion formed in h

Their personalities were very different. Mia's patience was wearing thin. With a sharp pivot, she made to leave, clearly done with Caleb's explanation. "Wait, Ms. Langford! I don't have the photos now, but I can get them. Just give me some time.""I'm sorry. I have no interest whatsoever." The notion of delving further into the life of Mrs. Barrett, who bore an uncanny resemblance to her, repulsed her.She strode toward Ginger and left the playground with her. Caleb sighed as he watched them leave. "Goodness gracious."It was unfortunate that he couldn't produce any photos at such a critical juncture. Caleb found her rather peculiar. He didn't even know her, yet she said he was the father of her child. She truly had mistaken him for someone else. …Mia returned to the hotel with Ginger, feeling frustrated. Ginger glanced at her. "Mommy, how'd it go with the bad guy?"Perplexed, Mia responded, "Ginger, do you think we might've gotten the wrong guy?""Mommy, didn't y

Bewildered, Mia questioned, "Considering my ordinary background, how did I end up marrying into the Barrett family?"Wade explained, "Mr. Barrett fell into a coma after an accident. It was Mrs. Barrett Senior who arranged your marriage.""All to change his fate?" A cynical scoff escaped Mia's lips. She was well aware of the stringent rules that governed high society. Commoners like her marrying up rarely ended well. She knew that all too well.She had heard stories about her adoptive parents being equally deplorable. It had been a brutal existence before the Lane brothers found her. A cold glint flickered in her eyes. If her brothers faked her death to cut all ties with the Barretts, surely the Barretts themselves must have been ecstatic. Yet, Timothy's strange behavior didn't paint that picture. Perplexed, she dismissed the notion of lingering affection on his part. Guilt, perhaps, but nothing more.Mia crossed her legs, a menacing gleam flickering in her eyes. "Everything

"The culprit?" Mia echoed incredulously, her mind racing to connect the dots. With a clatter, she abandoned her utensils, the noise ringing out sharply."So you've spent four years tracking me down just to interrogate me about the culprit? I'm appalled."She grabbed a knife beside her and brandished it before him. "Mr. Barrett, what makes you think that I should put up with your baseless accusations?"Though her memories remained elusive, her rage was unmistakable. If she were to uncover the extent of the injustice she had suffered, including how she had almost died from a hemorrhage during childbirth, she wouldn't be able to stop herself from burning the Barretts alive. They were all fucking bastards!The cold steel of the blade hovered dangerously close to Timothy's face, yet he remained steadfast, meeting her gaze without flinching."I just want to know the truth."Everything happened in a blur back then. Someone had been apprehended, purported to be the culprit, yet the des
