Chapter 281
Mia sighed and surveyed their surroundings. “Connor, come with me. Let’s chat over there.”
do we need to go there? Can’t we just talk here?”
Connor’s face bore an expression of reluctance.
Mia gently tugged at his white coat. “Connor, please. Come with me. It’s not appropriate to discuss this
here. We might disturb Grandma Laura.”
Eventually, Connor compromised.
Mia guided Connor to the far end of the corridor. Bowing her head, she spoke nervously, “Connor, let
me explain.”
“Yeah, I’m listening. Speak up. What’s your relationship with Timothy, and whose child is in your belly?”
Mia took a deep breath and admitted, “Connor, by now, you’ve probably already guessed. The child in
my belly belongs to Timothy.”
“What? That jerk had the audacity to sexually harass you? Damn it, I’ll make sure to put an end to him.

Connor was furious upon learning about Timothy’s misconduct. Despite taking all precautions against
Timothy, he still managed to exploit the situation!
Connor’s eyes flared with anger. He swore to make Timothy pay for mistreating Mia and causing her
pregnancy.
This was beyond acceptable!
Mia anticipated that it would come to this, and she hastily seized Connor’s arm, urging. “Connor, calm
down.”
“I can’t calm down. Let go of me, I’m going to find Timothy!”
Connor’s eyes blazed with murderous intent. In his mind, he had already formulated numerous ways to
exact revenge on Timothy and obliterate any evidence of the crime!
Frightened, Mia’s eyelids twitched. “Connor, please, listen to me first.”
“There’s no need to explain. I already understand the situation. Mia, why don’t you stay at home? Once
I handle Timothy, I’ll bring you back to Nord City. Trust me, no one can harm us.”

“Connor, the situation is not as you imagine.”
Connor cast a reassuring gaze at Mia, saying, “Mia, there’s no need to fear. In the past, you were
isolated and vulnerable, hesitant to voice your concerns even in the face of mistreatment.
“Now, you have six brothers by your side. Each one of us is more than capable of dealing with Timothy.
Moreover, Jason, being a lawyer, holds the most expertise in handling such matters.
“Even if Timothy manages to survive, we’ll ensure he faces imprisonment.”
Mia’s eyelids twitched as she absorbed his words, and she swiftly replied, “Connor, I doubt the
effectiveness of the law in this situation.”
“Timothy’s harassment toward you is undeniable. Despite his status as a divorcee and the
president of the Barrett Group, we won’t allow him to escape consequences.”

Clearing her throat, Mia responded, “Connor, I haven’t concluded the divorce proceedings with Timothy
yet, and technically, our child was conceived during our marriage. Legally speaking, he
didn’t harass me.”
Upon hearing Mia’s detailed account, Connor found himself taken aback, seemingly struggling to fully
compréhend the information.
After a moment, Connor leaned against the wall, feeling a wave of dizziness washing over him.
Mia rushed to assist him; her voice filled with concern. “Connor, are you okay?”
“I–I’m okay, just trying to wrap my head around this. Mia, did you say you’re going through a divorce
with Timothy? So, you’re married, and Timothy is your husband?”
Mia nodded meekly in response.
“Mia, how could you not have shared such an important matter with us? Why keep it a secret? If I
hadn’t accidentally discovered your pregnancy, were you planning to keep it hidden forever?”
Mia paused before answering. “I ended up marrying Timothy accidentally, and I didn’t want others to be
aware of my relationship with him.”
“Mia, we’re your family. You should have confided in us about this.”
