Mia turned around and spotted the neatly packed items. They were most likely clothes, as the baby criband stroller had probably been sent away earlier.

After a moment’s pause, she suggested, “Perhaps we should return these. Besides, Martha hasalready left, and she wouldn’t know.”

In response, Timothy furrowed his brows. “It’s not like I can’t afford these items. Just take them. You’releaving anyway, aren’t you? Consider them as gifts for the babies.”

Mia was momentarily caught off guard. Didn’t Timothy dislike children?

At that moment, Mia struggled to grasp Timothy’s intentions.

She averted her gaze. “There’s still quite some time until the babies are due, and no one around me

knows about my pregnancy. I don’t want to bring all this stuff home so early.”

Timothy’s eyes narrowed slightly. Did this mean Connor was unaware of her pregnancy?

Perhaps Mia had some reservations about Connor.

Considering this, Timothy’s demeanor lightened. “In that case, we can simply leave them in our homefor

now. You can retrieve them later when you have the time.”

“We’ll see. Besides, if you have children in the future, you can use them too.”

Timothy frowned. “I’ve already said I won’t have any biological children.”

Observing his serious expression, Mia felt even more reluctant to tell Timothy the truth about her

pregnancy.

Nonetheless, she didn’t want her babies to grow up in a home lacking parental love.

After leaving the mall, Mia headed straight to campus to study, mindful of her upcoming exams.

“Mia?”

Hearing her name, Mia looked up and saw Dana.

“Dana, what have you been up to these past few days? I haven’t heard back from you at all. Last time, Ieven got the conductor’s autograph for you. If you had come, you could have taken a photo with him.”

“Mia, I had to deal with some issues at home, so I couldn’t make it.”

With a guilty expression, Dana continued, “What have you been busy with lately?”

“I’ve been focusing on my exams, trying to graduate as soon as possible. You know I’ve been delayedfor

1/2:

a few years because I didn’t have enough social credits and electives,” Mia elaborated.

“What are your plans after graduation?”

“Well, I intend to go to Nord City after I graduate.” As Mia mentioned Nord City, a slight smile gracedher lips. After all, her family resided there.

After chatting for a while, Dana excused herself to go to the restroom and stepped outside.

She discreetly dialed Maya’s number. “Hello, Ms. Lane. I’ve learned about Mia’s plans. She intends torelocate to Nord City after finishing her exams and graduating.”

“Move to Nord City? Are you sure that’s what she said?” Maya responded, her grip on the phonetightening.

How dare Mia, that bitch, plan to go to Nord City?

Could it be that Mia recalled something from her past, or perhaps the Lane family has alreadydiscovered Mia’s true identity?

But that couldn’t be possible; if the Lanes had found the real heiress, they would have announced it by

now.

Maya’s expression hardened. “Find out why Mia is heading to Nord City, and do it quickly. We can’tafford to waste time.”

She was determined to uncover the reason before Mia’s relocation to Nord City.

If the situation was truly going downhill, she needed to act decisively and take preemptive measures!

After ending the call, Maya drove directly to the hospital to replace Connor, intending to extract informationfrom the Lanes.

She made her way to Connor’s office and found him there. “Connor, do you have a moment?” sheinquired.

“I’m quite busy right now. What are you doing here?” Connor replied, his tone cold.

Taking a deep breath, Maya said, “Connor, I have some good news for you–I’ve located the trueheiress of the Lane family.”
