Female Novel
Chapter 853
Taking a deep breath, Mia made the decision not to answer Liam's call. She couldn't think of a good explanation at that moment.
Shortly after Liam's call was disconnected, he sent Mia a WhatsApp message, saying, "Mia, if you don't pick up, I'll call Dominic."
Seeing this message, Mia immediately dialed Liam's number back. She couldn't afford for him to involve Dominic, as that would only complicate matters.
Before long, Mia heard Liam's voice through the phone. "Mia, you finally picked up. Tell me, who's the bodyguard the media captured?" Mia knew that Liam had called to inquire about this matter.
She cleared her throat and responded, "Who else could it possibly be? He's the new bodyguard. I'm clueless as to why the media is spreading these rumors."
"He looks quite similar to Timothy, doesn't he?"
"Really? I didn't notice."
At that moment, Mia felt extremely anxious. With Liam now aware, it wouldn't be long before her other brothers found out as well.
Liam couldn't help but sigh. "Mia, even if he's just a new bodyguard, your interaction with him seems quite intimate. He even hugged you in front of the reporters! Are you sure there's nothing more between you two?"
"Liam, you have to trust me. During the signing event, I had a slip-up, and the bodyguard acted quickly to save me. Otherwise, I might have ended up in the hospital by now."
Mia swiftly shifted Liam's focus to her fall, and as expected, Liam became immediately concerned about her well-being.
"Mia, I understand now. That's a relief. I had assumed you kept Timothy around as a bodyguard."
Mia nervously chuckled and replied, "Come on, Liam, that's impossible! You're overthinking things!"
"Alright, I was just concerned about you. That's why I called to inquire about the rumors of you and the bodyguard. But don't worry, I'll promptly arrange for the tabloids to be retracted. I don't want Dominic and the others to get the wrong idea," Liam assured her.
Mia felt a pang of guilt. "Thank you for believing in me, Liam."
"You're my sister, and I trust you more than anyone else. I believe everything you say," Liam replied.
After ending the call, Mia rubbed her temples with a guilty conscience, feeling like she had let Liam down.
It seemed like another day of assuming the role of the defiant younger sister.
Peyton cautiously inquired, "Did Mr. Liam figure out Mr. Barrett's identity?"
"He had his suspicions initially, but I convinced him it was merely a resemblance, so Liam didn't delve further."
Peyton continued, "Ms. Mia, shall we return to the hospital now, or is there another place you would prefer to go?"
After all, their earlier visit to the hospital had been interrupted.
"Let's head back to Meadowview Estate."
At this point, whether or not she regained her memories was not Mia's main concern.
What she truly desired was to witness the aftermath of Timothy's altercation. It was too intriguing to pass up!
Upon reaching Meadowview Estate, several cars swiftly pulled up nearby.
A sudden unease washed over Mia. Could it be that Dominic had arrived?
Stepping out of the car and seeing the Bowen family approaching, Mia felt relieved. As long as it wasn't Dominic and her brothers, she could handle it. Mia raised an eyebrow, a subtle smirk dancing on her lips as she asked, "What brings you here?"novelbin
Visibly furious, Lewis retorted, "Mia, don't act naive. Chuck and Harper had a consensual deal at the Om banquet, but now you're bringing in the police and even consulting lawyers for her. What exactly are you trying to do?" Upon seeing the Bowens, Mia had already deduced that they had come for this specific issue.
However, she hadn't anticipated Lewis siding with Chuck as welDim seemed that birds of a feather did indeed flock together.
