Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen

Chapter 258

Mia was taken aback by Timothy’s response.

Instead of offering the comforting words she had anticipated, he simply advised her to bear the pain.

Despite this, Mia recognized that, given the current circumstances, enduring was the only viable option.

Contrary to his seemingly stern words, Timothy’s actions were remarkably gentle.

Just then, Mia’s attention was diverted by desperate screams emanating from the other side.

She tried to look, but several men in camouflage blocked her view.

From the sounds, it appeared that her abductors were facing some form of reprimand.

Lowering her gaze, Mia noticed a bandage snugly wrapped around her ankle. She couldn’t help but be

captivated by Timothy’s profile, emanating both charm and elegance.

Mia found herself stunned, gazing into Timothy’s blue eyes.

Awkwardly averting his gaze, Timothy inquired, “Are there any other places that hurt?”

Clearing her throat, Mia replied, “No, I’m fine.”

Shifting her body slightly backward, she stole another glance at the commotion nearby. “Thank you for

coming to my rescue this time.”

Timothy set aside the first aid kit, his gaze weighted with concern. “In the future, perhaps you should

choose a more trustworthy man to safeguard your well–being.”

Mia pursed her lips and inquired, “How’s Felix?”

With a touch of disdain, Timothy responded, “His condition isn’t life–threatening.”

Upon learning that Felix wasn’t seriously injured, Mia felt a deep sense of relief, especially considering

he had sustained injuries on her behalf.

In that critical moment, who could have predicted the audacity of these men?

Timothy surveyed the group and posed the question. “What do you suggest we do with them?”

Mia lifted her gaze, meeting his eyes. “Is that question meant for me?”

Timothy furrowed his brows, revealing a touch of impatience. “If not you, then who else? We’re in

Upon hearing this, a shiver ran down Mia’s spine, and she swallowed nervously. “Let’s call the

police.”

“That’s a cowardly move.”

A wave of unease washed over Mia. “You do realize that murder is against the law, right? I don’t

want either of us to get into trouble.”

Upon hearing the word “us“, Timothy couldn’t help but smirk. “Come on, I was just kidding. Did you

really think I was serious?”

Mia clenched her teeth, exasperated by Timothy’s frustrating behavior.

It was hard for her to believe that she had felt a twinge of sentimentality toward him just a

moment ago!

In the next moment, Timothy shifted his gaze to his subordinates and inquired. “What did they say?

“They’ve admitted to everything. It’s confirmed that the adoptive parents of Ms. Bowen accepted a

ten–thousand–dollar bribe from this man.

“Not only that, but they also provided him with Ms. Bowen’s photo and address, instructing him to

abduct her.”

Upon hearing this revelation, Mia’s complexion turned pale. “I won’t let them get away with this.”

“The ongoing challenges with your adoptive parents aren’t new for you. Usually, you navigate

such situations adeptly when it involves me. What made handling your adoptive parents difficult

this time?”

Timothy’s intense gaze lingered on Mia, a flood of relief washing over him as he observed her safe

and sound.

He couldn’t fathom how Mia ended up being kidnapped and taken to such a remote place.

If Timothy hadn’t acted promptly, Mia might have found herself in genuine danger deep within the

mountains, where escaping would have been a formidable challenge.

Mia comprehended the gravity of the situation. Were it not for Timothy, the repercussions could

have been unimaginable.

“I

Bowing her head, she murmured, ever imagined these people would dare to kidnap me in a

bustling city.”

“Well, you should always anticipate the unexpected. Perhaps it’s wise to engage your wits when

you’re out and about!” Timothy sternly cautioned.

In a sudden realization, Mia lifted her gaze to him. “How did you know I was in trouble?”
