Chapter 457

Timothy looked up, his brow creasing slightly. “What are you doing here?”

“Tim, I tried calling you last night, but you didn’t answer. I told you I had important matters to discuss.

Why didn’t you call me back?” Sharon entered the office, visibly agitated.

Timothy remained composed. “I had some pressing matters to attend to.”

Sharon settled onto the sofa, her designer handbag clutched tightly in her hand. “Tim, I heard you’ve

finalized the divorce and transferred all your shares to Mia. Is that true?”

Timothy realized that Sharon must have learned this information from Maya. He wasn’t comfortable

with

others knowing about his divorce; it was a blow to his pride.

Maintaining a stoic demeanor, Timothy confirmed, “Yes, that’s correct.”

However, Timothy couldn’t ignore the fact that he hadn’t thoroughly reviewed the property settlement

agreement for the divorce and had merely signed it at the time.

“Tim, how could you be so oblivious? Don’t you understand the significance of handing over all your

shares to Mia?

“You’re essentially giving up your position as the CEO of the Barrett Group, effectively transferring

control of the entire company! Don’t you have any regard for our family’s legacy?”

Sharon had planned to have a serious conversation with Timothy the previous night, but she was

surprised to discover that he never returned home.

She struggled to comprehend how Mia could have misled Timothy to such an extent, resulting in such

a glaring oversight.

The more Sharon pondered the situation, the more exasperated she became. “Tim, did Mia manipulate

the divorce agreement to deceive you?”

Timothy rubbed his temples. “Mom, please don’t worry about it. I’ll handle this situation on my own.”

“But how can I just brush off something so important? Tim, trust me, no matter what tactics Mia

employs.

she won’t succeed in the end.”

With those words, Sharon retrieved a document from her bag and placed it in front of Timothy.

“From the very beginning, I’ve been cautious of Mia, given our differing backgrounds. Who knows what

she might have been plotting? I never imagined this document would be useful someday.”

Timothy glanced down and inquired, “What’s this?”

“It’s a prenuptial agreement. Given Mia’s humble background as a mald, her agreement to marry you

for

three years naturally kept me on guard.

“It explicitly states here that Mia willingly waives any rights to the Barrett family’s assets. In case of a

divorce, she will depart with nothing, not even a penny!”

Frowning, Timothy took the prenuptial agreement and swiftly skimmed through its contents. Upon

reaching the end, he indeed spotted Mia’s signature.

His mood darkened instantly. “Mom, who instructed you to do this?”

Timothy was completely unaware of any of these arrangements. He had always believed that Mia’s

reasons for marrying him were solely driven by the wealth of the Barrett family.

It turned out she hadn’t married him for wealth at alll

Timothy’s emotions were in turmoil as he rubbed his nose.

Observing Timothy’s demeanor, Sharon grew anxious. “Tim, there’s no need to worry. With this

document, even if there’s a legal dispute in the future, Mia’s claims won’t hold up.

“I mean, who would willingly agree to divorce and give up their assets? It seems suspicious right from

the start!”

Timothy stood in silence, tightly holding the prenuptial agreement. “Mom, why didn’t you inform me

about this earlier?”

“I–I thought I had mentioned it to you before, didn’t I?

“In the end, it seems that whether I bring it up or not doesn’t make any difference.”
