After a brief pause, Mia spoke up, “Jason, are you serious?”

“I don’t joke about these things, Jason replied.

Mia couldn’t help but feel uneasy. “So… you probably haven’t gone to see Timothy yet, have you?”

“I just did. I came to pick you up right after.” Jason replied.

Mia felt a sense of dread wash over her.

If only she had clarified everything with Jason earlier, none of this would have happened.

Turning to Jason, Mia asked, “Jason, why didn’t you inform me about something this important?”

“Mia, I should be the one handling these matters for you. You don’t need to worry about it at all.

“Leaving a marriage with nothing is simply unacceptable. Asking for money doesn’t make you

materialistic.

“These are all toxic beliefs that men try to instill in women, manipulating them into thinking they

shouldn’t value money. But in the end, it’s these men who benefit,” Jason explained.

Upon hearing this, Mia couldn’t help but sigh. “I understand that you’re looking out for me, but my

situation with Timothy is more complicated than that of other divorced couples.”

“There’s no difference, Mia. Trust me,” Jason reassured her. “I’ll ensure you receive your maximumrights

and benefits.”

Feeling emotionally drained, Mia murmured, “Jason, these conditions you’ve outlined–Timothytransferring all his shares to me, along with millions in cash, numerous properties, and stakes insubsidiary companies–how did you uncover all of this?”

Of course, Mia was aware of the Barrett family’s wealth!

Just Timothy’s shares alone held significant value.

How could Mia possibly request the entire stake in the Barrett Group?

Jason replied calmly, “Have you forgotten what I do for a living?”

“Jason, it’s unlikely the Barrett family would agree to these terms.” Mia remarked skeptically.

Jason replied nonchalantly, “Timothy has already given his consent.”

What?

Mia was stunned. “Timothy agreed? That can’t be possible!”

“He even put his signature on it. If you don’t believe me, see for yourself,” Jason asserted.

Mia swiftly flipped to the final page and confirmed Timothy’s familiar, bold signature.

Now, Mia was utterly bewildered.

How could Timothy possibly have agreed to it?

Was he not in his right mind?

Observing the traffic lights ahead, Jason commented, “Despite Timothy’s shortcomings, he’ssurprisingly generous regarding your divorce.

“He signed the papers without even reviewing them. It seems he has a great deal of trust in you.”

Mia thought to herself: “Well, it turns out he signed the papers without even a single glance, just as I

suspected.”

Considering Timothy’s character, it seemed improbable that he would agree to such stringentconditions!

Mia was at a loss for words. “How did the conversation go? Why did he sign the document withouteven

taking a look at it?”

It was completely out of character for Timothy.

Jason raised an eyebrow. “I initially drafted it this way as a negotiating tactic, not expecting him toagree. However, I never imagined he would sign it without even looking at the content.

“He probably assumed it was the property settlement agreement you had prepared. That’s why I

mentioned his apparent trust in you.”

Mia was taken aback. How had she not recognized the extent of Timothy’s trust in her?

As she gazed at the property settlement agreement bearing Timothy’s signature, an array of emotions

washed over her.

“Mia, there’s no need for you to handle any of this yourself. I’ll take care of everything on your behalf,”

Jason assured Mia.

“Jason, there’s something I haven’t told you. Before marrying Timothy, I signed a prenuptial agreement.

None of these assets are legally tied to me.”

“What?”

Jason pulled the car over to the side of the road, his gaze fixed on Mia in disbelief. “Mia, did you really

sign the papers?”

“Yes, I did,” she affirmed.

Jason cursed under his breath. “No wonder Timothy signed the agreement so readily. He must have

been expecting me, hasn’t he?”
