Upon hearing Connor's words, Mia couldn't help but feel guilty. She nervously fidgeted and said, "Connor, it's a long story." "Perfect, I have plenty of tto listen," Connor quipped.
He was also curious as to why Mia chose to keep Timothy as her bodyguard. Did she still harbor feelings for him? Taking a moment to gather her thoughts, Mia explained, "Initially, I intended to dismiss Timothy when I went to the hospital. But I ended up keeping him around as a bodyguard just to see him embarrass himself. I never expected him to be so persistent and stay by my side." Mia had only wanted to play a prank on Timothy, which was why she kept him around as her bodyguard.
"Mia, Timothy is a cunning man. Don't let his words deceive you. It might be safer to keep your distance from him. What do you say about that?" Connor suggested.

Whether he's dead or alive, it's none of your concern." Mia let out a sigh and replied, "Connor, it's not like I care deeply about him. But he is the biological father of my twins. We can't just wish for his death, can we?" "If Timothy wasn't the father of your children, he'd be long gone by now." Mia felt a sense of relief upon hearing Connor's words. It seemed that Timothy was still alive.
"Mia, listen tocarefully. Please don't let Timothy near you anymore. He brings nothing but trouble. Every the's around, something bad happens to you. Try to avoid him as much as possible, do you understand?" Connor reminded her again.
Mia raised her hand and swore earnestly, "Okay, Connor, I promise. I'll make sure to keep my distance from him in the future." Connor's demeanor softened as he saw her adorable gesture of commitment. "Mia, are you feeling hungry? I can go grab sdinner for you." "I'm really craving those street tacos. Thanks, Connor!" Shortly after Connor left, Peyton entered the room, pushing the door open gently. "Ms. Mia, is there anything you need?" Lowering her voice, Mia inquired, "How's Timothy doing?" Peyton hesitated briefly before responding, "Honestly, the situation isn't great." Upon hearing this, Mia tensed. "My brothers didn't leave him crippled, did they? Or did they turn him into ssort of freak?" "It's not that severe. Referring to him as a freak is a bit harsh, but he did cclose to being crippled." Peyton proceeded to recount the events outside the operating room.
As Mia listened to Peyton's account of Connor nearly stabbing Timothy with a surgical knife, her emotions becentangled. She spoke slowly, "He didn't even try to dodge?" Was Timothy truly unafraid of death? After all, given Mia's brothers' genuine animosity toward him, they would undoubtedly act upon it without hesitation.

"Yes, Mr. Barrett's skills are quite impressive. However, at thatmoment, he didn't budge an showing no signs of backing down. He was adamant about seeing you, Ms. Mia. Isn't that commendable?" .
Mia's eyes betrayed a hint of sarcasm upon hearing this. "Do you seriously find his actions admirable?" Peyton paused for a moment before replying, "I mean, considering Mr. Barrett's status and position, it's indeed remarkable for him to go to such lengths." Besides, wealthy and powerful men like Timothy typically had no shortage of romantic options.
Hence, it was highly unusual for someone of his stature to take such perilous risks, especially when their life was at stake.

It's hard to shake off that bitterness." .
