Chapter 145

Mia waited for a while until Timothy spun around.

His bloodshot eyes showed that he didn’t have a good rest.

Anxiety surged in her. “Did something happen to Mrs. Barrett Senior?”

She pivoted on her heels, intending to barge into the room before he held her wrist.

“She’s perfectly fine.” His voice was gruff.

“What’s the problem then?” Her puzzled eyes met his dark ones. She couldn’t read his mind.

He said sternly, “Something happened on Maya’s brother’s side. So, we need a Plan B.”

“What happened?”

Wasn’t the engagement ceremony soon? Was Maya’s brother disregarding the Barretts when they

were going

to be a family?”

Mia studied Timothy’s face in an attempt to gain at least some information from it.

However, he turned to face the window. “It’s nothing important.”

Her arms tightened around the bouquet, and her questions still hung in the air.

She was certain that he was hiding something from her.

At that moment, Martha emerged from the patient room. “You’re here, Mrs. Barrett. Mrs. Barrett Senior

has just woken up. She was talking about you.”

Mia settled her nerves and put on a smile, entering the room. “Grandma, I’m here.”

“Mia, come, come. Let me have a close look at you. You’re skinny. Does the baby bother you too

much?”

“Nope. It’s well–behaved.” Mia stroked her belly.

In fact, the baby was well–behaved. Other than the occasional discomfort owing to too much work, she

didn’t show much pregnancy symptoms.

Laura grinned at her belly. “Mia, come here and sign this paper.”

It was a gift agreement.

Mia refused without a second thought. “Grandma, I can’t accept this.”

“Accept it, Mia. This is a gift from me to the baby. If I don’t make it through the surgery, I want to at least

leave something for the baby.”

“Don’t say it like that, Grandma. The surgery will be successful. Timothy found a skilled doctor. There

won’t be a problem.”

“Mia, if you want me to undergo the surgery with peace of mind, then accept it. It’s not for you anyway.

It’s for

A document was shoved into Mia’s hands. Laura was firm.

Timothy strode into the room. “Accept it.”

Mia glanced at him before taking the document, figuring that she could return it to him later.

She didn’t want a single penny from the Barrett family.

Laura finally broke into a smile. “That’s more like it. Tim, you have to take good care of Mia and the

baby.”

“Grandma, I’m usually busy with work. We need you for that.” It broke his heart to see his grandmother

aging.

Although the Barrett family was powerful, they couldn’t do anything when it came to life and death

matters.

Mia kept Laura company for a while. She managed to tickle Laura’s funny bones, lifting her mood.

Nevertheless, it didn’t take long before the wanly old woman fell asleep.

Mia exited her room and swiftly proffered the document.

Timothy lowered his gaze onto the paper but didn’t take it. “Grandma gave it to you.”

“It’s for the baby, the nonexistent baby. And we know that very well. So I can’t take this.” She caressed

her belly.

Lying to Laura pricked her guilty conscience, but that was the only thing that could be done.

Timothy didn’t take it, so she simply thrust it into Heath’s hands and left.

She wouldn’t take a single penny from the Barrett family–that was her bottom line.
