Chapter 458

Timothy’s frustration was evident as he tugged at his tie. Looking at the prenuptial agreement laid out

before him, he felt as though he had just been dealt a harsh blow.

Nonetheless, what was even more exasperating was that every time he accused Mia of being

materialistic, she never bothered to refute it.

With a heavy heart, Timothy closed his eyes, haunted by memories of Mia’s attempts to explain herself,

knowing deep down he had never fully trusted her words.

Timothy had always prided himself on his ability to understand people and their motives, yet with Mia,

he found himself faltering.

This left him feeling not just unsettled but also weighed down by a sense of guilt.

“Tim, what’s bothering you? I had a talk with Mia in the university hall yesterday. She wouldn’t dare tonovelbin

mention that property settlement agreement again.”

Releasing his grip, Timothy’s gaze darkened. “What exactly did you say to her?”

“Well, I handed Mia the divorce papers for her review, or more precisely, a photocopy of them, just to

prevent any chance of her tearing up the original in case she became upset.

“Perhaps this will help her snap out of her fantasies.”

Timothy couldn’t help but remember the previous day when he saw Mia smiling warmly at Claude.

However, when she glanced at him, there was a sense of detachment in her eyes.

Timothy assumed that Mia had found someone new, hence her distant attitude toward him.

It was only later that Timothy realized Sharon’s involvement, but Mia remained silent about everything.

In a swift gesture, Timothy crumpled the divorce agreement in his hand, causing Sharon to tremble

beside him in fear. “Tim, what are you doing?” she asked nervously.

With a serious expression, Timothy replied, “Mom, please go home for now. I need to focus on my

work.”

“Tim, how about I keep this document for you?” Sharon proposed.

Just as she extended her hand to take it, Timothy swiftly avoided her grasp, his gaze piercing. “This

matter concerns me. I think it’s best if I keep it,” he insisted.

“Okay, okay. Just make sure to keep it safe. Oh, and by the way, your grandmother has been

recovering well lately.

“You should schedule some time to go to the courthouse with Mia and finalize the divorce

proceedings.”

Timothy sat alone in silence, lost in thought as he stared at the prenuptial agreement in his hands.

“What is it that you’re trying to decide on?”

Seated at the edge of the bed, Mia watched as Laura showcased an assortment of baby cribs and

strollers on her tablet.

Her expression grew complex as she glanced at the items, her heart filled with a bittersweet sensation.
