Chapter 412
Timothy sat back in his chair, calmly observing Jason standing before him.
After a moment of scrutiny. Jason handed over his business card.
“I’m a lawyer with Beacon Attorneys in Nord City. I’m here to represent Ms. Bowen in discussing the divorce proceedings
between you two.”
Timothy glanced at the business card on the table before returning his gaze to Jason. “What does she
want to discuss?”
Jason swiftly retrieved a stack of documents and laid them out on the table.
“Here is the
the draft of the property settlement agreement for your divorce, detailing the division of assets. Mr. Barrett, please take a moment
to review it.”
Without glancing at the documents, Timothy remarked, “Wasn’t she previously set on taking nothing? What led to this change of
heart?”
Mia had not only changed her stance but had also sent the top lawyer from the Lane family to negotiate
with Timothy!
It seemed like Mia had truly outdone herself this time.
Upon hearing this. Jason realized that Connor had hit the mark. Indeed, Mia genuinely didn’t want any of Timothy’s assets!
However, as an experienced lawyer, Jason had dealt with enough divorce cases to understand that
assets were the most reliable leverage; he was determined to make Timothy pay a hefty price!
Jason spoke calmly, saying, “These details aren’t important, Mr. Barrett. But for the divorce to go. smoothly. I recommend
reviewing these documents. If you have no objections, you can just sign
n them.”
Timothy accepted the documents with a cold expression, neglecting to read its contents. He signed the last page and then
forcefully set the documents down in front of Jason.
Narrowing his eyes, Timothy warned. “Please let Mia know that if she changes her mind again in the future, she shouldn’t expect
me to be accommodating.”
Glancing at Timothy’s signature. Jason raised an eyebrow. “Are you sure you don’t want to review it?”
“There’s nothing in there that’s worth my attention,” Timothy replied curtly.
Indeed, Timothy was known for his straightforward nature.
Jason nodded and retrieved one of the copies, placing it on Timothy’s desk. “As per the agreement, Mr. Barrett, you should start
handling the procedures in the next few days.”

Timothy, however, simply gazed at the documents before casually tossing them toward Heath. “You take
care of it.”
After Jason finished packing up the documents, he stole another glance at Timothy. “Even though Mia spent three years of her
life married to you, at least you’re handling this divorce like a man.”
Timothy remained silent. He didn’t view this comment as a compliment.
After Jason left, Heath reviewed the property settlement agreement and suddenly broke out in a cold
sweat. “Sir, are you sure you don’t want to look over the agreement?”
Was Timothy oblivious to the fact that he was on the brink of bankruptcy?
After completing her tasks on campus, Mia checked the time and decided to head home promptly for
dinner.
Today had been exhausting, and she planned to rest early to tackle tomorrow’s workload.
Approaching the university’s entrance, Mia spotted Jason stepping out of a car parked by the roadside.”
Mia, over here,” he called.
“Jason, what brings you here?” Mia asked as she approached with a cheerful step.
Jason handed her a lunch box, saying, “Have some food to keep you going. There might be traffic on your way back.”
“Thanks, Jason.”
As Mia settled into the passenger seat, she noticed a briefcase. “Jason, did you come from work?”
“Yeah, I just finished handling a divorce case.”
As Jason calmly drove away, he glanced at Mia in the passenger seat. “Feel free to open it and take a
look.”
Mia’s hand paused, a sudden sense of unease washing over her.
She retrieved the documents from the briefcase and saw the title “Property Settlement Agreement.”
As she perused the detailed list of assets, her face paled in shock.
