“I'm Heath, Mr. Barrett's assistant. There’s been an urgent contract negotiation these past few days that Mr. Barrett needed toattend.
“However, to expedite matters and make arrangements for his hospitalization for the bone marrow donation, he had toreschedule the meeting with our partners.
“Normally, Mr. Barrett refrains from alcohol, but given the circumstances, he ended up drinking excessively.”Upon hearing this, Mia pursed her lips and responded, “I see. Please ensure Mr. Barrett gets back to rest as soon as possible.”
There was a hint of hesitation in Heath’s voice on the other end of the line. “Ms. Monalize, Mr. Barrett has been drunkenly callingout your name. Could you come over for a moment?”
“Alright, just give me the address. I'll be there shortly.”
After ending the call, Mia gently patted Ginger’s head. “I need to step out for a bit. Be good, wash up, and get ready for bed. I'llbe back soon to tuck you in.”
“Is it the bad guy looking for you?”“He’s had too much to drink, | need to go check on him.”

donation.
Considering the circumstances, Mia felt obliged to check on him. She certainly couldn’t risk Timothy backing out at such a crucialmoment.
Besides, it wouldn't hurt to pay him a visit.Exiting the hospital, Mia headed directly to the restaurant.

1/3table.

Approaching the intoxicated Timothy, Mia spoke softly, “Mr. Barrett, are you ready to leave now?”
At the sound of Mia’s voice, Timothy slowly lifted his head, his eyes reflecting a mixture of complex emotions. He replied in adeep voice, “You're here?”
“Yes, I’m here. Let’s go.”
Mia swiftly assisted Timothy to his feet. Her priority was to get the drunken Timothy into the car so she could swiftly return to thehospital and be with
Ginger.
She had initially anticipated some resistance, but to her surprise, Timothy cooperated obediently, following her lead withouthesitation.novelbin

For some inexplicable reason, Mia felt a growing sense of unease, as if something
was amiss.
Lost in her thoughts, she was abruptly jolted back to reality as the car came to a sudden stop.
Lifting her gaze, Mia caught sight of a villa outside the car window. In that
instant, a flurry of images flooded her mind, causing her to furrow her brow and draw in a sharp breath.
“What's wrong?” Timothy glanced down at Mia, noticing her hand reaching for her head.
He instinctively reached out to assist her, only to be met with a sharp push from Mia. “Don’t touch me!” she exclaimed.
Timothy's lips tightened coldly. “Does this place make you uncomfortable?”
