Chapter 261

Connor’s fists clenched tightly as he retorted, “Hey, you rascal, put her down! What makes you think

you can keep holding onto her for so long?”

Timothy turned toward Connor, his expression unyielding. “You keep your hands off her, too.”

“Timothy, please don’t compel me to take action, alright?” Connor fumed, advancing toward him.”

Release her.”

“I won’t. Step aside!”

The two men squared off, creating an intense and charged atmosphere.

At that instant, Mia regained consciousness.

As her eyes opened, she found Timothy and Connor standing before her, locked in a face–to–face

stance. Sandwiched between the two, she sensed an undeniable chill in the air.

Mia weakly raised her hand. “Um, can I say something?”

Simultaneously, Timothy and Connor both lowered their heads. “You’re awake?”

Connor anxiously gazed at her. “Mia, are you alright? Do you feel any discomfort? Please, let me

know!”

Mia shook her head. “I’m fine.”

Realizing she was still in Timothy’s arms, her cheeks flushed. “Um, you can put me down now.”

Timothy tightened his lips in response. “I’ll escort you to the examination room.”

“Wait, Timothy, please set her down. There’s no need for you to carry her. Just push the stretcher

over,” Connor interjected.

Mia observed the presence of nurses and doctors with a stretcher in the vicinity.

She cast a glance at Timothy. “You don’t have to carry me. It would be awkward with so many

people watching.”

With a cold expression, Timothy eventually set Mia down on the stretcher. He shot a look at Connor

standing beside him, finding him rather irritating.

Resting on the stretcher, Mia gazed at the ceiling lights. She turned her head slightly, offering a

reassuring wave to Connor. “I’m okay. You don’t need to worry.”

Connor let out a helpless sigh and directed his attention to Timothy. “Where did you find Mia?

What happened to those thugs?”

Connor was resolute. Mia’s abductors had to be held accountable for their actions. How dare they

kidnap her!

Maintaining his stoic demeanor, Timothy responded, “They’ve been handed over to the police.”

Connor nodded, casting a disapproving glance at Timothy. “Fine, for Mia’s sake, I’ll overlook this

recent incident.”

Nevertheless, Connor planned to address the situation with Timothy once Mia received clearance

from her medical examination.

Having said that, Connor swiftly followed Mia toward the consultation room. With Mia being

pregnant now, he felt the responsibility to keep a close watch on her.

Timothy remained in place, observing Connor’s departure. As he adjusted his tie, a sense of

inexplicable annoyance settled within him.

Mia was guided into the consultation room. She gazed at the bright lights and instinctively placed

a hand on her lower abdomen.

“Mia.”

Just then, Connor, dressed in a white coat, entered and reviewed the examination records. “The

baby is doing well. You can relax.”

Mia nodded. “I apologize for causing you all to worry.”

“It’s on us for mishandling this situation. If we had addressed your adoptive parents sooner, you

wouldn’t have had to go through this.”

Connor couldn’t help but feel a sense of regret.

Mia smiled. “It’s not your fault; it’s my own matter, after all.”

Her brothers had already gone above and beyond for her.

“Mia, get some rest. I’ve got things under control.”

Mia peered outside the consultation room, inquiring, “Connor, what was the argument between you and

Timothy just now?”

She had been in a deep sleep, only to be stirred by the commotion.

Connor seemed somewhat uneasy. “He wouldn’t let go of you. I insisted he put you down, but he

“That’s all?”

“Yeah, why was he holding onto you like that when you two were alone? If you hadn’t awakened just

now, and if it weren’t for the fact that he located you first this time, I would’ve intervened

earlier.”
