Mia raised her head, studying Timothy. His face reflected in her crystalâclear eyes.
They stood in the corridor, where the windows welcomed the warm summer breeze.
He saw himself in her eyes, his heartbeat picking up its pace.
âMia Bowen, youâve become more shameless since we last met a few days ago. Do I look like I have
feelings for you?â A quick denial.
Despite his steely expression, his eyes wavered. He even tucked at his necktie to mask his mixed
feelings.
âOkay. Then, why do you care so much about my relationship when you donât even like me? Why tell
me that those men are bad guys? Donât you think that youâre crossing the line as my ex- husband?â
âThatâs because you have a bad judgment of character.â
She nodded in acknowledgment. âYou have a point. If I had good judgment of character, I wouldnât
have chosen you.â
Frustration boiled within him as he gritted his teeth. âDonât you regret this, Mia Bowen.â
He left after saying that.
Bitterness reached the tip of Miaâs tongue as she watched him leave. She caressed her belly. confident
that she wouldnât regret it.
After coordinating her emotions, she held the plate of fruits into the room. âGrandma.â
âMia, did you see Timothy? He came by.â
She paused. âNo.â
The reflex reaction of a lie brought a pang of guilt.
Laura grabbed Miaâs hand. âYou mustâve missed him. He went downstairs for the meeting about
my surgical plan. He should be back later.â

What should she do? Would a fight break out when Connor saw Timothy?
Mia was on edge. Anxiety got the best of her. âGrandma, I want to attend the meeting too.â
Mainly because she wanted to observe the situation. If a fight really broke out, she could at least
stop them.
Laura asked, âWhat for? Itâs enough for Timothy to go alone. You know how boring a meeting can
1. be. You should keep me company.â
She managed a forceful smile. Actually, it wasnât that she wanted to attend the meeting, but she wished
she could stop a fight from happening.
âGrandma, you donât know what Iâm going through right now,â she sighed inwardly.
What should she do? On what excuse could she attend the meeting?
At that moment, almost every doctor in the hospital gathered in the meeting room downstairs to
finalize the surgical plan.
As the main doctor in charge, Connor took the center seat and highlighted the things that required
more attention in detail.
Timothy joined, sitting in the last row. He was annoyed to see Connor in the same place, but he
reined his emotions in because Connor was the main doctor in charge of Lauraâs surgery.
Needless to say, Connor was aware of Timothyâs presence. A cold glint flashed in Connorâs eyes.
The sheer sight of Timothy made Connor want to punch him.
How dare this bastard marry Mia in secret! And impregnated her at that!
The thought of her almost becoming a widow irritated Connor to the.bones.
The two men didnât wish to see each other.
Nevertheless, the presurgical meeting ended smoothly.
Other doctors admired Connor upon hearing his explanation. âDr. Lane, weâve learned a lot from
this. Donât worry. Weâll be careful not to let you down.â
