Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen )
Chapter 127

As Maya looked for Connor, her repeated calls to his phone went unanswered.

Was she wrong about her suspicions?

Still, the individual in the white coat bore an uncanny resemblance to Connor.

Inside the emergency room’s infusion area, Mia lay on the bed.

The ordeal earlier had made her break into a sweat, but now she seemed to be recovering.

“Mia, it’s time you leveled with me. What’s really going on?” a stern voice pressed.

As Mia took a sip from her cup, she looked up to replace Connor entering the room, startling her andcausing her to choke momentarily.

Acting quickly, Connor gently patted her back. “Be careful. Let me fetch you another glass of water.”

Mia let out a cough, casting a vulnerable look toward Connor. Her eyes filled with tears, radiating an airof innocence.

Observing his sister’s expression, Connor’s initial anger dissipated, and genuine concern took its place.

He sighed deeply, dragging a chair closer to her bedside.

“Mia, my intent isn’t to reprimand you but to express my worry. You dropped the bombshell about beingpregnant so suddenly. How did you expect me to process that?”

Having gone to great lengths to locate and reintegrate Mia, their beloved princess, into the Lane family,it was expected that she would lead a life filled with serenity and comfort.

By the time she reached her thirties and considered marriage, her brothers naturally thought that itwould be their responsibility to choose the right man for her.

However, out of the blue came the startling revelation–she was already pregnant!

Mia’s eyes fell, and she murmured, “I understand, but all of this happened before you even found me.”

“Mia, can you tell me who the father is? I simply want to have a ‘friendly conversation‘ with him. As yourolder brother, I believe I deserve to know,” Connor urged.

Beneath his composed exterior, a tempest of anger swirled.

If not for concern out of Mia’s feelings, he would have confronted and swiftly dealt with the manresponsible for causing his sister such distress.

Mia pressed her lips together firmly. “Connor, that’s all in the past now, and I’d rather not discuss it.”

“Mia, you don’t need to be afraid. You have Jason, a lawyer who’s well–connected with prominent legalprofessionals. We’ll ensure that the man who hurt you faces the consequences!”

Mia was puzzled by Connor’s words, wondering if he had misunderstood the situation.

Lifting her eyes to meet his, she clarified, “Involving lawyers won’t make a difference. Remember, Ichose to

keep the child after we broke up. He doesn’t even know the child exists.”

Connor breathed a sigh of relief, initially fearing his sister had endured mistreatment.

Upon hearing the phrase “broke up,” a hint of displeasure shadowed his expression.

“Who could be so blind as to end things with you?” he inquired.

Connor held Mia in the highest regard, viewing her as the most perfect woman in the world.

He was convinced that only undeserving men would fail to recognize Mia’s worth.

Mia responded with a wistful smile. “I once harbored feelings for him in secret, but the emotional tollbecame

too much. I chose to move on, leaving the past behind,” she explained.

“Connor, I’d rather not revisit those memories or discuss him further,” she pleaded with Connor.

She was determined to steer Connor away from confronting Timothy, as such an encounter wouldundoubtedly bring trouble his way.

After all, the Barrett family stood as the most affluent in Bern City, wielding substantial influence andpower.

Furrowing his brow, Connor pressed, “Is the child Timothy’s?”

Mia paused, taken aback by Connor’s astute deduction. Did he catch a glimpse of Timothy escortingher to the hospital earlier?

Gathering herself, Mia swiftly replied, “No, it isn’t his.”

“Then why was Timothy accompanying you here?”

“I collapsed at the mall where I was working today. It just so happened that he was on a security patrolthere. Recognizing me from the time I cared for Grandma Laura, he quickly came to my aid.“
