Timothy didn’t know why his grandmother asked him about this. He couldn’t answer her as he wasstunned

for a moment.

Then, Laura said in a casual manner, “I just had a video call with Mia just now. She’s still working at thestudio. Why didn’t you pick her up when heading home just now?”

Timothy calmly replied, “I’ll pick her up in a moment.”

“You should go now. There’s traffic on the way. You can have a meal with her at a nearby restaurantand then come home.”

“Grandma, how have you been lately?”

“I’m doing well. If you and Mia can give me a grandchild, I will be able to live for a longer time. Now,you go pick her up quickly. Stop talking nonsense. I get annoyed when I see you like this!”

Then, she hung up the phone.

Timothy was stunned at her actions, but seeing that grandmother was so energetic, he felt a littlerelieved.

He glanced at his watch and saw that it was quite late. Was Mia still working?

He took his suit jacket and walked out of his home quickly.

At the studio, Mia was alone and was working on a design plan on the computer.

The client for this project was a little demanding. The design she drew during the day needed somemodification, and her client needed the new design immediately as they were in a hurry to begin therenovation process. Hence, she had to work overtime to finalize the design and send it to them.

The office was empty, and she was the only one still working.

“Mia, you’re working overtime?”

Mia heard the voice and turned to see Felix walking in from outside. “Felix, why are you here?”

“I came to pick up something. I didn’t expect to replace you still here. You’re working quite hard.”

“I’m very dedicated to my work. After school starts, I probably won’t have this much time to continueworking

anymore.”

Felix smiled and said, “I’m here to take care of some things, too. We can leave together later.”

Mia was very focused on her drawing and did not notice Felix’s gaze.

An hour later, Mia finally finished the design and sent it to her client. She rubbed her sore neck.

Her stomach made a sound as the baby inside her belly was hungry.

Mia touched her abdomen and said in a soft voice. “I’m sorry, baby. Mommy will go eat now.”

Felix approached her and rested one hand on her chair. “Are you done yet?”

“Yes, let’s go.”

Mia stood up to leave while maintaining a distance from Felix.

Felix withdrew his hand without a word, and the two took the elevator downstairs.

“Mia, congratulations on being able to go back to school. If you encounter any difficulties in life or atschool in the future, you can come to me for help anytime.”

Mia smiled and said. “Thank you for the offer. I’m doing fine as of now.”

“I mean, you don’t always have to do things on your own. I’m your senior and two years older than you.You know you can come to me for help.”

Mia’s eyebrows slightly furrowed, but she replied calmly. “Thank you. It’s no wonder that your studio isdoing so well. It’s because you’re such a nice person and always treat your employees well

Felix understood the meaning hidden in her words and quickly changed the subject. “It’s late. I’ll takeyou

home.”

“You don’t have to. I’ll take a cab home.”

“You just said that I always treat my employees well. If I let you take a cab home and word got out, itwould damage the reputation of my studio. I’ll get my car from the garage. Please wait here.”

At this point, Mia had no choice but to give in. She stood at the roadside and saw a Maybachapproaching. The sleek black car reminded Mia of Timothy’s car. But Timothy wouldn’t be here so lateat night, would he?

At this moment, Felix’s car drove out of the underground garage and stopped on her left. “Mia, get in.”
