Meet My Brothers

In that moment, a glimmer of hope flickered in Mia’s eyes.

Watching her frazzled appearance and wavering posture, Timothy noticed her deep almond eyes, their darkness exuding a sense of vulnerability and longing.

That brief interaction momentarily softened his heart.

Without hesitation, he stepped forward, clasping Mia’s hand to steady her.

Mia had braced herself for a fall, convinced that Timothy would favor Maya in any conflict between them.

Much to her surprise, Timothy decisively stood by her side this time.

Drawing closer to him, Mia gazed at him in disbelief. Her heart pounded, a blend of relief and anxiety.

The chilling thought of what could have transpired had she stumbled, especially for their unborn child, was too distressing to imagine.

Suddenly, Maya’s voice rang out, carrying a subtle undertone of resentment as she called, “Tim!”

Turning her gaze, Mia saw Maya still on the floor, her eyes showing signs of redness, nearly on the verge of

tears.

Mia blinked, surprised. She hadn’t expected Timothy to bypass Maya’s distress to come to her aid.

In that instant, Sharon emerged from the elevator, swiftly making her way toward Maya.

With concern etched on her face, she remarked, “Ms. Lane, how did you end up on the floor? Were you not careful? Let me help you.”

Although Maya hesitated briefly, she eventually stood up, explaining, “While discussing pregnancy matters with Ms. Bowen, we both lost our balance due to the slippery floor.”

Upon hearing this, Mia’s eyes narrowed slightly, a trace of skepticism crossing her expression. Was Maya subtly suggesting that Mia might have played a role in the accident?

Undeniably, Maya’s adeptness at deflecting blame while maintaining an air. of innocence was commendable.

Almost immediately, Sharon pointed an accusing finger at Mia, her gaze piercing. “Mia, couldn’t you have alerted Ms. Lane about the wet floor? Her fall could be attributed to your negligence. Do you grasp the potential repercussions if something grave had occurred?”

Mia remained unfazed,familiar with her mother–in–law’s propensity for criticism.

Pulling away from Timothy’s embrace, Mia nonchalantly remarked, “I’m no saint, it’s not in my nature to warn mistresses.”

After all, it had been Maya, the cunning instigator, who had clung desperately to Mia, orchestrating this deceptive scenario.

With those parting words, Mia turned on her heel and walked away.

The sudden absence of Mia from Timothy’s arms caused his brow to furrow in confusion.

Frustrated, Sharon turned to Tim, asserting, “Tim, observe Mia’s demeanor. Her arrogance has skyrocketed just because she’s expecting. Can’t you see through it? This is the real Mia.”

Maya was surprised that Timothy had overlooked her and rushed to Mia when she fell. It seemed that Mia’s

unborn child was the sole catalyst for this sudden protective instinct.

Unable to contain herself any longer, Maya finally voiced her concerns, “Timothy, I inquired about Ms. Bowen’s child, but her expression seemed guilty. I can’t help but suspect she might not be entirely truthful.

“While I mean no harm to your child, I believe that dishonesty is simply not acceptable.”

In a sudden realization, Sharon exclaimed, “I knew it! Mia couldn’t have become pregnant out of nowhere, she

must be deceiving us!”

The notion that Mia might not be truly pregnant brought a sense of relief to Sharon. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Tim remained tight–lipped. In truth, he too grappled with uncertainty about the authenticity of Mia’s pregnancy.

Maya assumed a magnanimous demeanor, stating, “Timothy, Mrs. Barrett Senior did mention that if Ms. Bowen is indeed pregnant, she would be open to the surgery.‘

“It’s possible that Ms. Bowen had good intentions. Let’s refrain from placing blame on her,”she added.

Without uttering a word, Timothy turned away and left the hospital.

Maya felt the urge to catch up, but her ankle which was sore from the fall hindered her movements.

Frustration etched deeply in her eyes as she observed Timothy’s retreating figure. Maya was disconcerted by the unexpected twist of Timothy rushing to Mia’s aid.

Outside the hospital, Mia stood amidst the commotion of passing cars, her emotions entangled in a web of

complexity.

Having witnessed Laura’s declining health just moments ago, Mia felt compelled to unveil her pregnancy. Yet, the prospect of confronting Timothy loomed ahead as a daunting challenge she wasn’t ready to face.
