Chapter 309
Upon seeing Timothy, Holly promptly exited the bedroom, considerately closing the door behind her.
Catching sight.of Timothy, Mia paused and met his gaze. “Um, I’ll make sure not to spill any food on the
bed while eating.”
She was well aware of Timothy’s disdain for messiness, particularly when it came to eating in bed -a
habit he wouldn’t tolerate.
However, her hunger took precedence, and she couldn’t afford to dwell on it too much at the moment.
When a pregnant woman was hungry, nothing could stand in her way. Besides, the two little ones.
within her belly seemed indifferent to any inconveniences and were already expressing their discontent.
Timothy stood beside the bed, his dark hair still slightly damp.
Some of the shorter strands draped across his forehead, softening his expression and imparting an
aura of grace and sophistication, reminiscent of a distinguished young gentleman.
His bathrobe hung loosely, unveiling a well–defined chest. Mia couldn’t help but observe a droplet of
water sliding down from his chest, vanishing into the depths of his robe.
As Mia glanced at Timothy before her, she found herself inexplicably swallowing her saliva.
Timothy lowered his gaze and spoke in a subdued tone, “It seems like things are progressing quite well

Caught off guard by his words, Mia momentarily pursed her lips before responding. “It’s not what you
think. Last time, Felix got injured because of me, so I invited him to dinner to show my gratitude.
“As for his mother, she just happened to drop by to bring Felix some food, and that’s how we ended up
having a meal together.”
After all, Mia and Felix were not romantically involved, let alone at the stage of introducing each other
to their respective parents.
After hearing her explanation, the shadow in Timothy’s eyes lifted. It seemed like there was more to the
situation than he initially believed.
Timothy’s voice deepened as he inquired, “So, do I deserve a meal too? Who was it that rescued

Setting aside the snack in her hand, Mia responded, “Well, considering your busy schedule, I assumed
you wouldn’t have time for a meal.”
“I think it’s best to keep my gratitude private. Nonetheless, I wish you a successful career and a
peaceful life,” she expressed,
Mia’s words triggered a sense of frustration in Timothy. She had extended the invitation to Felix but
seemed hesitant when it came to him. The contrast left him feeling somewhat unappreciated.
Timothy couldn’t shake the feeling that Mia was a trial sent by fate to test him.
Suppressing his displeasure, Timothy suggested, “Have you ever thought about switching companies?
“Remaining in a small studio might not be the best for your career. Plus, Felix doesn’t strike me as a
trustworthy person.”
To Timothy, both Janice and Felix seemed dubious, with Felix standing out as particularly questionable.
His roving eyes and concealed intentions were transparent. Did he really think that others couldn’t see
through his facade?
Timothy could sense that Felix harbored ulterior motives toward Mia. If she were to continue working at
his studio, who knew what kind of situations she might encounter in the future?
Mia hesitated for a moment before answering, “Not now.”
Expressing his frustration, Timothy asked, “Is Felix so important to you that you can’t bear to leave?”
Lowering her gaze, she responded, “Feel free to think whatever you wart.”
Unbeknownst to Timothy, Mia would be leaving Bern City and relocating to Nord City in a few

Perhaps resigning from the studio would be much easier compared to leaving a position in a large
company.
“Mia, if it weren’t for Grandma’s sake, I wouldn’t even bother caring about you.”
Furious, Timothy stormed toward the walk–in closet, apprehensive about engaging in further
conversation with Mia.
Alone on the bed, Mia silently polished off all the snacks on the plate.

Wiping the corners of her mouth, she lay on the bed, relishing a sense of satisfaction.
The effects of the alcohol still lingered, leaving her slightly dizzy and drowsy. All she desired was to
recline and rest for a while.
As Timothy returned, dressed in a new suit, he noticed Mia peacefully asleep on the bed. Her summer
dress had ridden up, revealing her slender legs.
