Female Novel
Chapter 975
Mia's mind was in turmoil due to Louisa's overwhelming audacity earlier. Amidst the chaos, Mia had forgotten that Sage was right by her side and he had witnessed everything.
She regretted bringing Sage along to see the commotion at the entrance. If he hadn't been there, Sage and Timothy wouldn't have run into each other. At that moment, she didn't know what to do next.
Sage looked up at the towering figure before him. It was his first time seeing Timothy in person. Previously, he had only seen Timothy in videos or photos.
Sage maintained a stoic expression as he fixed his gaze on Timothy. His attitude and impression toward Timothy were bad, to say the least.
Timothy couldn't help but notice Sage's presence. The boy's arrogant demeanor felt strangely familiar to him.
As their eyes met, Sage found Timothy intolerable.
Timothy naturally sensed the hostility from Sage. He frowned and remarked, "This is an affair concerning the grown-ups, brat. Best you stay out of it."novelbin
He didn't give it much thought since Sage was just a kid. Timothy was certain that a child wouldn't be his love rival.
Sage grew indignant upon hearing that. In a childish tone, he retorted, "Why should I stay out of it? But I—"
Before he could finish, Mia stepped forward and covered his mouth. She didn't want him to blurt out anything.
She turned to Timothy and said, "He's always been stubborn since he was little. Mr. Barrett, let's not get into a fight with a child."
Then, she gestured to Sage with her arms, "Why don't you go inside with the nurse? I'll join you after I've sorted things out. We'll play together later, okay?"
Sage looked at her and stubbornly shook his head.
She felt a headache coming on. Sage was as stubborn as Timothy. Now, she didn't know how to handle the situation.
Just then, Nicholas rushed in with the others. He made a beeline for Mia and asked, "Are you okay? Are you hurt?"
Mia let out a sigh of relief upon seeing him. "I'm okay, but there was an incident at the research institute earlier.
"A woman from Yellow Island
stormed in with her bodyguards and caused trouble. They had injured all the security personnel, so I had the woman and her bodyguards@aken to the police station."
Nicholas replied, "I heard about it on my way here. I'll handle things at the police station.
"But I'm more concerned about your safety. I heard there was a confrontation, and you were pushed to the ground. Are you alright?"
He looked at her apologetically. "I
never imagined that a lunatic would do something like this. If I had known, I would have made sure she regretted coming to Nord City last night."
He replied nonchalantly, "I never agreed to any blind date. It was just a coincidence last night.
Mia cleared her throat and
remembered something. So, she
quickly placed Sage's hand in
Nicholas's and said, "I need to
handle something now. Could you take him inside?"
