Chapter 870

Upon learning about Mia's head injury, Peyton grew deeply worried. He swiftly reached out to the doctors at the private hospital and hurried there without delay.

The medical team at the private hospital was already on standby. Unbeknownst to Mia, Connor happened to be among the hospital staff members.

As Timothy carried Mia out of the car, Connor was taken aback to see him. "What are you doing here?" he exclaimed in surprise.

Mia realized she was in a difficult situation as soon as she heard Connor's voice. There was no way she could hide anymore.

Deciding to go along with it, Mia closed her eyes and pretended to faint. Stepping forward, Timothy gently lowered Mia into a wheelchair. "Now isn't the time for questions," he stated firmly.

"She sustained a head injury from being hit with a bag, and she's experiencing nausea and dizziness. It seems to be a mild concussion." Observing Mia's pallid complexion, Connor didn't bother questioning Timothy's presence. Instead, he swiftly wheeled Mia into the operating room for assessment.

Meanwhile, Timothy stood guard outside the operating room, his eyes blazing with a cold fury at the mere thought of Mia's injury.

It appeared that the Bowen family was truly despicable.

Before long, Dylan arrived. He approached Peyton and asked, "What's the situation?"

Glancing toward the operating room, Peyton responded, "They're still conducting tests. Let's hope for the best for Ms. Lane."

As Dylan's eyes moved from the operating room to Timothy standing outside, his expression became more nuanced, a mixture of curiosity and suspicion brewing in his thoughts.

He couldn't help but ponder the nature of the relationship between Timothy and Mia. What exactly was their connection?

Half an hour later, Connor emerged from the operating room clad in a white coat.

Timothy hurried over to him, his concern evident. "How is Mia?" he asked urgently.

Connor shot Timothy a cold glare. "What are you doing here with Mia?" he questioned disdainfully. "I knew trouble would follow once you showed up."

Suppressing his impatience, Timothy asked, "How's Mia? What's her condition exactly?"

"So, now you're worried about Mia, huh?" Connor shot back. "If you weren't hanging around her, would she be hurt?

"And speaking of which, you never answered my question. Weren't you supposed to have gone back to Bern City? Why are you still here, lurking around Mia and causing trouble?"

Timothy remained silent in the face of Connor's accusations, only repeating, "I just want to know how Mia is doing."

"Listen here, Barrett, you've got no business knowing anything about her condition!" Connor was utterly furious; encountering Timothy never seemed to lead to anything good.novelbin

In a burst of fury, Connor turned to Peyton and commanded, "Get someone to remove this man immediately. Keep him away from Mia! I'll deal with him later!"

Timothy's expression turned icy as he retorted, "I won't leave until she's recovered."

"Well, Timothy, it seems you're not one to heed warnings," Connor remarked, his tone sharp. "Don't blame me for taking drastic measures then."

Without a moment's hesitation, Connor summoned his bodyguards. Casting a glance in Timothy's direction, he commanded, "Give him a good beating, would you? If he refuses to leave, incapacitate him!" Indeed, Connor had been itching to take action for some time.

Now that Timothy had fallen into his trap, he certainly wouldn't hold back.

Determination etched on his face, Timothy stood his ground, engaging in a fierce altercation with Connor's bodyguards. Despite being outnumbered, he refused to yield.

After all, Connor was Mia's third brother. Judging by their earlier interaction, it seemed Mia's relationship with Timothy was anything but ordinary. Pondering this, Dylan's curiosity only intensified.

Was Timothy really just an ordinary bodyguard?
