Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen )
Chapter 564

With that, Timothy handed over a business card with Heath’s name on it. 

Jeremy’s face lit up with surprise as he took the card. 

This was no ordinary gesture–It was an olive branch extended by none other than the CEO of the prestigious Barrett Group. 

The opportunity to secure investment from Timothy held the promise of a bright future for Jeremy. 

That day’s lunch suddenly felt incredibly worthwhile. 

Observing Jeremy’s appeased expression, Mia couldn’t bear to watch any longer. She rose from her seat and exited the private room, making her way to the restroom. 

Contemplating the situation, Mia couldn’t deny that having influence and authority could be advantageous. 

Upon her return to the private room, Mia noticed that only Timothy remained, with Jeremy nowhere in sight. 

She casually inquired. “Where’s Jeremy?” 

“He had to attend to something and left early.” Timothy responded, fixing his gaze on her intently. “It’s just as well he’s gone. have something important to talk to you about.” 

Drawing in a deep breath, Mia asked, “What’s on your mind?” 

Timothy began, “Yesterday, outside your neighborhood, you brought up how it’s always been you who’s had feelings for me, that it was all one–sided, and that I never reciprocated those feelings-“: 

Mia’s eyes narrowed at this. She awkwardly cut him off, saying, “Alright, please don’t keep bringing that 

up.” 

Timothy’s lips tightened. “That’s not how I meant it.” 

“Timothy, do you still think I haven’t endured enough misery for your sake? I’ll admit, I once held feelings 

for you, and maybe I was too presumptuous in marrying you, causing you trouble. 

“But now that we’re divorced, why do you keep bringing up the past? Don’t I deserve some respect?” 

Her eyes teared up slightly. “We’re all human, with emotions. Can’t you let go of it, considering I once

loved you?” 

With that, Mia left the private room awkwardly. 

As she stepped out of the restaurant, Timothy hurried to catch up. “Mia, why are you leaving so suddenly? 

Hearing him, Mia picked up her pace. 

Seeing her hastening away. Timothy’s heart pounded with worry. He quickly moved to her side and took hold of her wrist. “Mia, have you forgotten that you’re pregnant?” 

Mia finally slowed down and responded in a calm tone, “I know. Let go of me.” 

Nonetheless, Timothy remained silent. He held her hand and continued walking. 

The alley was quite crowded at this hour, with many people coming and going, making it feel somewhat 

narrow. 

Timothy strode forward with a confident and authoritative demeanor, prompting those approaching to 

instinctively make way, impressed by the commanding presence he exuded. 

Mia walked behind him with her head down. She tried to pull her hand back, but Timothy held it firmly, 

refusing to release her. 

His grasp was firm and reassuring as they moved forward together. 

Looking down at their joined hands, Mia felt a mixture of emotions. 

Was Timothy suddenly showing kindness because he had a change of heart? Or was he concerned about potential backlash from her brothers now that she was the heiress of the Lane family? 

After a while, they finally reached the end of the narrow alleyway. 

Feeling the cold air and seeing the open road, Mia gradually regained her composure. Instinctively, she tried to withdraw her hand, but Timothy still held on. 

She glanced up at him, her eyes reflecting his silhouette. 

As their eyes locked, Timothy’s throat tightened. “Mia, don’t you feel anything?” 

Mia’s eyes flickered in response. How could she miss his shift in demeanor? 

Timothy’s intense gaze and his reassuring touch–these were moments she had once longed for. 

Yet, at this moment, Mia observed him with an unusually clear perspective. “Timothy, do you have 

feelings for me?”
