Upon hearing Laura’s voice, Mia’s expression instantly paled.
Had Laura overheard their conversation just now?
She felt momentarily flustered. The last person she wanted to hurt was Laura.
As Timothy and Mia turned, they noticed Laura waiting.
Mia’s expression became somewhat uneasy as she greeted her. “Hello, Grandma.”
“Why are you both lingering here? Let’s go and eat. I noticed you hadn’t returned for a while, and I
started
to wonder if you’d gotten stuck in the bathroom, so I came to check.”
Hearing this, Mia let out a sigh of relief. “Grandma Laura, we just had a short conversation and lost
track.
of time a bit.”
Linking her arms with Laura’s, the two of them made their way toward the dining room.
Timothy observed Mia’s departing figure, his gaze intensifying.
Throughout the meal, Mia deliberately ignored Timothy, who was seated across from her.
Turning to Laura, she remarked, “Grandma, you should rest now. I’ll leave first. I’ll come visit you again
soon.”
“Alright, be sure to spend more time with me before you depart for Nord City.” Laura responded.
Mia’s eyes brimmed with tears as she nodded earnestly.
Upon exiting the Barrett residence, she brushed away her tears. At that moment, a tissue was offered
to her, and she recognized Timothy’s refined and slender fingers.
With a fleeting look, she accepted the tissue and blew her nose forcefully.
Observing her somewhat brusque actions, Timothy furrowed his brow and inquired, “What’s the name

It appeared she had no intention of searching for the twins‘ biological father.
Witnessing her determination, Timothy tell a twinge in his heart. “Are you really okay with the twins
never knowing who then father is?” he inquired.
Mia turned away, a touch of bitterness evident in her eyes.
“In the end, that man remains oblivious to the bables‘ existence. He certainly wouldn’t want them, and
might even pressure me into terminating the pregnancy.
“Knowing this inevitable outcome, how could I bring myself to tell him?”
Mia had no idea what Timothy would do next after leveraging her twins to coerce her into staying in
Bern City. She certainty wouldn’t risk jeopardizing her bables!
The two stood in a standoff at the entrance of the residence, nelther budging.
Nonetheless, Timothy could detect an underlying tone in Mia’s words.
It felt as though she were subtly mocking his initial reluctance to have children and even pressuring her
to consider terminating the pregnancy.
However, that was a reality he couldn’t deny.
Furrowing his brow, Timothy spoke up. “I can drive you back. Do you want to go to campus or head
home?”
“It’s alright. I’ll walk on my own,” Mia replied resolutely.
“It’s not easy to find a cab around here, you know.” Timothy insisted.
Mia nodded. “I’m aware. My brother will come to pick me up.”
As she finished speaking, a sleek black luxury car pulled up next to them.
