Chapter 644

Caleb answered, “We found her and her mother took her back.”

On top of that, both Monalize and Ginger had stomped his foot! He felt so wronged!

Luna gingerly caught a glimpse of Timothy’s expression before looking at Caleb. “Did the kid say

anything?”

“Are you afraid that she might say something?” Timothy interrogated.

“You’re misunderstanding me, Tim. We all know what they look like. I just want to confirm if that woman

is truly Mia Bowen. That’s why I asked.” Her face was pallid.

She feared that Ginger might expose her, which would cause a misunderstanding between her and the

men.

She could offer an explanation only after she figured out what happened.

Timothy replied indifferently, “Stay out of this.”

“I’d like to do something as one of the Barretts. I want to find Mia as soon as possible and get to the

bottom of Mrs. Barrett Senior’s incident.”

“Leave!” He suddenly lost his temper, his eyes were steely.

That took her aback, as she didn’t expect the sheer mention of the incident would anger him.

Timothy had been acting out of character ever since he met the woman who resembled Mia.

Four years had passed and yet he couldn’t forget about her.

Caleb stood up to alleviate the mood. “It’s getting late, Luna. You should get back and rest up.”

Upset, she bit her lip but still she left the room nevertheless.

Caleb gazed at the angry Timothy, his tone sounded helpless as he said, “Why are you angry? Didn’t

you

decide to stay to confirm whether that woman is Mia or not?”

Timothy walked to the wine chiller and poured himself a glass of wine. He hadn’t been consuming

alcohol because Ginger was around.

“Give me a glass of wine too, Tim.”

“Do it yourself.” Timothy stood before the floor–to–ceiling window while holding a glass of wine.

The somber sky dawned upon the sea as the waves rolled. The surface was serene without any boats

or

ships.

Caleb walked up to him. “We still have time, Tim. I know Luna has put her foot in her mouth. I bet what

happened to Mia that year wasn’t an accident.”

Hearing that. Timothy downed his glass of wine in one go.

“The auction tonight is the main reason we came here. There’s no room for mistakes,” Caleb reminded.

Timothy’s fingers tightened around his wine glass. “I know.”

“What the fuck? What are you wearing on your wrist, Tim? We’ve been friends for years and I didn’t

know that you’re into this kind of thing!”

Timothy dropped his gaze onto the pink smartwatch on his wrist, which reminded him of Ginger.

He smiled. “It’s a gift from your daughter.”

“Although she’s not really my daughter, she gave you a gift but not me? I don’t get her.” Caleb was

bitter

about it.

“Whenever you can’t figure out something, it’s time to reflect on yourself.”

“Personality–wise, I’m better than you, though.”

Timothy caressed the smartwatch. He couldn’t put a finger on the strange feeling swelling in him.

At the same time, Mia was sitting on the couch in a different room.

Mia was listening to Ginger’s recount of her exploration. Ginger gesticulated to give Mia a better picture

of it.

Her six brothers‘ faces were shown through the monitor.

When they heard that Ginger was found, they urged Mia to make a video call so that they could see
