Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen ) -
Chapter 149
Maya was staring at Connor with her pitiful eyes. Although she knew she was a substitute for thedaughter of the Lanes, she had been well off all these years.
Since Dominic had agreed to their marriage, Connor would surely agree to perform the surgery.
Yet, in the next instemt, he retorted icily, “No!”
He recalled Mia working as a caregiver at the Barrett residence and how Timothy treated her. Therewas no way that he would associate himself with their family.
Maya’s expression changed slightly.
“Why? Even Dominic had agreed!”
“That’s none of my concern. Since you’re so eager to marry Timothy, so be it. I’ve said what I have to.Yet, I never said that I was going to perform surgery on a Barett!”
“Connor, are you disobeying Dominic?”
Little did Maya expect him to go against Dominic.
With a nonchalant expression, Connor replied, “I have made myself very clear. You can marry anyoneyou like, but I never promised to do the surgery.”
“Connor, if you’re not going to do the surgery, how can I marry Timothy?”
“Didn’t you say you guys were close? Will he not marry you if I’m not performing the surgery?”
Looking slightly alarmed, Maya went up and tugged Connor’s hand.
“Connor, it’s nothing like that! Why can’t you just do the surgery for Grandma Laura? After all, we’refamily.
“Back then, you guys brought me back and promised to treat me well like your real sister. All theseyears, I’ve never asked anything from you all!
“It’s just a simple surgery, so why are you so reluctant about it?”
Connor wrenched his hand away. There was a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
“I won’t back down on this.”
He was firm on not performing surgery for a Barrett. He turned around and left the consultation room,leaving Maya behind.
He was headed for the safety exit to make a call.
“Dominic, did you agree on Maya’s marriage with Timothy?”
Dominic was in a meeting.
He paused and proceeded to answer, “That’s right. I did promise her that as long as she keepsGrandma Laura

“She mentioned that she wanted to get married to Timothy yesterday. Since she insisted on themarriage, I
agreed.”
“Timothy’s a rascal. He’s only marrying Maya to get me to perform surgery on Mrs. Barrett Senior. He’sa cunning one, for sure. Although Maya’s not our biological sister, is it okay for her to marry him?”
“Con, it’s her choice
There was a moment of silence.
“Dominic, you knew Mia used to be a caregiver at the Barrett residence. Plus, I’m positive that Timothy
definitely has a thing for her.
“If Maya’s married to him, we can’t avoid interacting with them. I don’t want the Barretts revealing Miaused to
work for them.”
Dominic’s brows drew together as he replied, “That makes sense. If Maya insists on marrying him, we’lldissolve our adoption relationship with her.”
“Yeah, that works.”
Connor finally hung up. After all, Maya had been living her best life with the Lanes.
However, things had been difficult for Mia for so many years. Thus, it was only right to prioritize herfirst.
He called Mia right away.
“Mia, I just finished my work. Where are you?”
“I’m at the lounge on the first floor.”
“Right, I’ll be there in a while.”
Just as Mia hung up, she lifted her head and happened to see Maya stepping out of the elevator. Sheseemed pretty devastated.
Wasn’t she as proud as a peacock earlier on?
Mia couldn’t help but wonder about Maya’s purpose for going to the hospital.
