Chapter 470

*15 BORES

Timothy gazed at the yellow rose in the passenger seat, questioning his sanity for making such a

gesture.

Meanwhile, Mia hailed a cab and swiftly departed from the college. Seated in the vehicle, she glanced

back at the campus, her phone ringing incessantly.

She held the phone but didn’t answer. She, too, was puzzled by Timothy’s sudden behavior.

She couldn’t help but recall what he had said last time when they were shopping for baby supplies.

Perhaps Timothy was trying to save their marriage, but Mia realized that his motivation was solely

because of Laura.

Before long, she received a WhatsApp message from Timothy. “Why did you run away?”

Mia’s emotions were tangled, and she decided not to reply.

Shortly after, another message arrived. “Don’t forget, this is Bern City. Do you think you can escape

from me?”

Enraged, Mia promptly called back, demanding. “Timothy, what is it that you want?”

“Finally, you pick up. Why did you leave like that?”

“You show up out of nowhere, causing a scene! If I hadn’t left, could I have continued studying

peacefully on campus for tomorrow’s exams? What exactly is your motive for appearing so suddenly

like this?”

Mia felt a creeping unease. Why was she being interrogated?

Timothy’s voice remained composed. “Well, I was simply trying to appease you.”

Appease her?

Mia was caught off guard by his comment, taking a moment to compose herself. “I don’t appreciate

being manipulated. And why would you even try to persuade me like that?”

As she spoke, Mia suddenly grasped Timothy’s intentions.

“You don’t seriously believe that a small gesture like this would persuade me to forgive you and call off

our divorce, do you?” she sarcastically remarked.

Timothy paused on the opposite end of the line, carefully considering his response. “I don’t extend this

gesture to just anyone,” he stated.

After all, he had always been discerning when it came to appeasing women.

Mia chuckled in exasperation. “Well then, Mr. Barrett, I’m not one to accept such advances from just

anyone either.”

“Would you like to find out?”

Mia hesitated briefly before asking, “Find out what?”

“Find out what it’s like to be charmed by me,” Timothy’s deep voice resonated over the phone.

Mia couldn’t shake the stifling sensation in her nose, feeling inexplicably overwhelmed with distress.

For three years, she had yielded to Timothy’s demands, bending to his every whim. Yet, now that she

had resolved to leave, he shamelessly tried to coax her into staying.novelbin

Mia pressed her lips together and declined, “I’ve already given it a shot. I won’t go down that road

again.”

With that, she ended the call. She gazed thoughtfully at the night sky through the car window, lost in

contemplation.

Upon her return home, Mia discovered Connor and Jason lounging on the couch.

She had assumed Jason would have returned to Nord City by now, so his presence came as a

surprise.

As Patricia headed into the kitchen, Jason leaned in and whispered, “Mia, while dealing with your

immigration paperwork in Bern City today, I encountered a problem.”

“What’s the issue?” Mia inquired.

*Since your divorce with Timothy hasn’t been finalized, his signature is necessary on these

documents,” Jason explained.

“No, Timothy absolutely wouldn’t agree to sign them, and I can’t risk informing him,” Mia instinctively

dismissed the idea.

Given Timothy’s behavior today, it seemed plausible that he would not only decline to sign the

documents but also potentially attempt to interfere.

“Jason, I prefer to handle the divorce proceedings myself. I’ll make sure everything is settled by the end

of this week,” Mia asserted confidently.
