Lahat ng Kabanata ng Scorned Wife No More: A Queen Pampered by Three Tycoons: Kabanata 871 - Kabanata 880

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 need you

"It's me," Timothy said calmly. Realizing that it was Timothy's voice, Heath's body stiffened. "It is you, Mr. Barrett! Where are you?""Where else can I be? Nord City, of course," Timothy responded."We've been looking all over for you for a long time. I have to lay low in Nord City because the Lanes will send me back again if they catch me," Heath explained.Heath had been hiding himself lately. This was a stark contrast from how he was treated in Bern City. He was treated with respect wherever he went as Timothy's assistant.However, in order to help Timothy win Mia's heart back, Heath had stumbled upon a rough patch recently. He almost broke into tears of joy when he received the call from Timothy.Timothy ordered, "Go to the subsidiary. Find out who's going to collaborate with the Bowens.""Mr. Barrett, I think we should pick you up first. Where are you? The Lanes are looking for us everywhere. If they discover you, they might kill you!""I've met them," Timothy said nonchalantly

Nicholas stole a glimpse of Mia. "Dominic doesn't know that Timothy's with you, does he?"She nodded. "No, but Eva knows. I told her not to tell him. You know his temper. If he finds out that Timothy's with me, things will be way worse."She was aware that Dominic cared for her, but he had a vile temper and impulsive character. She didn't want to see bloodshed happening because of this.Nicholas noded. "I know."Mia reminded him, "Don't let your tongue slip later. Please help me keep this a secret."He promised, "Sure thing."She breathed a sigh of relief. They arrived at the Lane residence. As soon as she showed up, the maids reported, "Ms. Mia is back."She walked into the posh living room, and soon, Eva breezed out of the kitchen. "Mia, you're back. I made your favorite soup. You should have more later."Mia pulled Eva's hand. "Definitely! It's been years since I last tasted your cooking."Eva grinned. "Nicholas, you're here too? Come, come. Let's eat together. It's been a while si

Only then did Mia comprehend the situation. Eva was attempting to match her with Nicholas!Ginger put her spoon down and scurried out of the dining room, leaving the trio behind."Eva, why did you ask that?" Mia wanted to confirm with Eva."Since you're asking, I might as well go straight to the point with you. You've been single for years and you recovered your memories. "You're perfectly fine, so you can think about your love life now. We know Nicholas well enough. He has been staying by your side and looking after Sage for four years. Dominic and I think that he's a good candidate.""Wait, wait, wait. Hold it." Mia quickly poured herself a glass of fruit juice, taking a few sips of it to calm herself down.This entire time, she had never once thought about her love life, let alone about the man who had been by her side.Eva questioned, "Mia, do you not like him?""Eva, Nicholas and I do get along well, but I only see him as my brother. I don't have special feelings for him. You're

Mia plopped herself down on the couch after she sent Nicholas off. She couldn't quite snap back to her senses, as she'd always regarded him as a brother and had never thought of anything else. Eva approached her with a fruit plate. "So, how did things go?"Mia sprang up. "You knew?""Yeah, we all saw how he treated you the past four years. He might not have been very direct, but he can't hide the way he feels about you.""Are you kidding, Eva? I've never thought that Nick would fall for me. I was completely caught off guard. I can't really handle this.""Is it because you don't think he's a good person? You did mention that he's too busy with work," Eva asked."No! In fact, that's not the main reason. Nick's a really good guy, but I just never thought about our relationship that way," Mia reiterated her intention again.Eva suggested, "Why not give it some thought? I think Nicholas is quite brilliant."Spiraling in turmoil, Mia went upstairs to her room, where she struggled to regain
