Chapter 434
The dismissal notice did fluster the old lady, but she soon regained her composure. “Son, don’t be a
scaredy cat.
“You’re a top scholar with capabilities. You’ll be able to work as a higher–up in another company too.”
That earned a cold snort from Timothy. “Don’t insult the higher–ups with his ordinary abilities.”
He then left with Mia following behind him. She cast a backward glance at the fighting mother and son,
feeling light–hearted.
Judging from the old lady’s bold tone, she might be used to be the oppressing party all the time.
If her son had controlled her temper, she wouldn’t have acted that way, which left Mia with one
conclusion–the man usually acted the same as the old lady did.
Perhaps, there could be a number of subordinates he had picked on. Now that he was dismissed, Mia
didn’t feel a tinge of pity for him at all.
Mia faced forward only to realize that Timothy was waiting for her. “Do you think that my actions were
too much?”
She didn’t know how to respond to that for a moment.
He added. “That man is average and a dawdler. He always picks on newcomers and takes credit from
them. His performance was at the bottom of the pile for two years consecutively.
“If it wasn’t for his magnanimous higher–up, he would’ve been fired a long time ago.”
Adding Timothy’s comment to her judgment, her guess was right. How could a parent like that old lady
possibly raise a good son?
“I don’t think that it’s too much.” answered Mia.
Timothy strode out of the hospital and there was a luxury car by the road. He stood by the door. “Get
in.”
The way he protected her in the elevator replayed in her mind, messing with her heart.
Her lips were pursed into a thin line. What kind of excuse should she make to turn down the offer?novelbin
Then, he asked, “Am I that scary?”
Mia looked at him. In fact, that wasn’t the case.
When she started walking in his direction, his tense jaw loosened a bit.
Suddenly, a car was pulled over.
Jason got out of the car, concerned. “Mia!”

She turned her head in response, not expecting Jason to find her that quickly..
Stopping in her tracks, she fixated on him. “What are you doing here?”
He ran to her and examined her from head to toe. “Are you alright? Are you hurt?”
She shook her head. “My blood sugar level was low so I fainted on campus. Mr. Barrett brought me
here.”
Hearing that. Jason lifted his head to see the nearby Timothy, alerted,
Jason couldn’t believe it. Timothy actually brought her to the hospital?
Meanwhile, Timothy’s jaw tensed upon Jason’s appearance again. The Lanes were seriously
everywhere!
They stared at each other with hostility.
Jason stepped forward, standing between the duo while eyeing Timothy with an unfriendly gaze.
“Thank you for bringing her to the hospital in time, Mr. Barrett. I’ll buy you a meal as a token of
gratitude.”
It made Timothy uncomfortable. “You don’t have to. It’s my duty to take my wife to the hospital.”
Jason clenched his teeth. “Mr. Barrett, you’ve signed the divorce papers. You’re no longer husband and
wife.”
