Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen ) -
Chapter 575
After the exam concluded, Mia exited the classroom feeling utterly exhausted.
She had been fully immersed throughout the day, and now she felt completely drained.
The discomfort of sitting for long hours, especially with her pregnancy, had been challenging to endure.
Fortunately, her pregnancy wasn't too far along, so she managed to persevere through it.
"Mia," Connor and Claude called out as they approached her.
Connor promptly supported her arm, asking, "Are you alright? If you're feeling unwell, you need to let me know immediately."
"I'm alright, just a bit fatigued and hungry," Mia replied.
She understood Connor's concern for her pregnancy. Nonetheless, the babies inside seemed to recognize the importance of her examination, maintaining good behavior and not being overly restless.
Claude breathed a sigh of relief. "Now that your exams are over, let's grab a bite to eat. How about we go out for a nice dinner tonight?"
"Sounds good," Mia agreed.
Walking out of campus with her brothers, Mia spotted Nicholas' car. She greeted him politely, "Hi Nick."
She knew that Connor had asked Nicholas to wait for her during the exam because he was concerned about the babies growing inside her belly.
Despite Nicholas' typically stoic demeanor, his expression visibly softened upon hearing Mia calling him "Nick" affectionately.
The four of them then got into the car and left the university.
Nearby, someone captured this moment and sent the photo to his higher-ups.
Meanwhile, Timothy was taking a break after a meeting when Heath approached him with a phone. "Mr. Barrett, there's news from the university."
Timothy glanced at the crystal-clear photo on his phone. It showed Mia, surrounded by her brothers, getting into the car with a radiant smile on her face.
In the presence of her family, Mia's smile appeared even more endearing.
However, as Timothy observed the man in the driver’s seat, his eyes narrowed slightly. Wasn’t that the obstetrician?
With a grim expression, Timothy placed the phone down.
Mia's family seemed to have considered every detail, going as far as arranging for the obstetrician to wait outside. What else was there for Timothy to concern himself with?
Although Mia had already booked a flight to Nord City for next week, she didn't bring it up when Timothy visited her yesterday.
Suddenly, Timothy found himself unable to concentrate on his work.
He rose from his desk and exited his office, pacing anxiously. Unable to resist, he eventually called Caleb. "Hey, are you free right now? How about grabbing a drink together?"
Caleb was surprised by the sudden call. "This is unexpected; you're inviting me for a drink out of the blue. Last time, it was because of Mia, wasn't it? Is it the same reason this time?"
"Don't be ridiculous. Are you joining me or not?"
"Sure thing. Send me the address. Since you're the one extending the invitation, I've got to make an appearance, don't I?"
Upon Caleb's arrival at their usual meeting spot, he observed Timothy casually discarding his suit jacket, his shirt hanging loosely on him.
He appeared completely disheveled, exuding an air of melancholy.
"Listen, Tim, you don't just pull me out for a drink without reason. Come on, spill it. What's on your mind?"
Timothy emptied his glass of red wine, fixing his bloodshot eyes on Caleb. "Mia is leaving next week."
"Next week? But isn't Grandma Laura's banquet this weekend? Are you telling me she'll leave right after attending it?"
Observing Timothy's despondent state, Caleb pressed on, "So, what's your point here? I recall advising you to try winning her back before, but despite that, you ended up divorced. I thought you had moved on!"
"I thought I could move on too, but I don't want her to leave!"
Timothy's gaze solidified with determination. Now more than ever, he was resolute in his feelings. He was unwilling to let Mia slip away!
Taking a seat beside Timothy, Caleb spoke sincerely, "Let's be honest. If you had pushed a bit harder, splurged a bit more, and been more romantic before Mia found her family, you might have had a chance at winning her back."
