Mia had almost lost hope, but to her surprise, Timothy arrived just in time to intervene and drive away the two
unfamiliar men.
A swirl of emotions engulfed Mia.
With a hint of apprehension, Timothy confessed, “If anything were to happen to you, I wouldn’t know how to face. Grandma.”
Upon hearing his words, Mia lowered her gaze, masking her feelings.
With a forced smile, she responded, “I appreciate your help back there.”
“Well, I couldn’t just ignore being called ‘ sweetheart‘ like that.”
Mia remained silent.
As they exited the secluded grove, Mia spotted a security vehicle parked nearby.

somewhat familiar–they were the same. men who had assaulted her earlier.
Yet now, they appeared severely bruised, limping as they moved, their previous arrogance replaced by defeat.
If it weren’t for their clothing, Mia would have almost failed to identify them.
Turning to Timothy beside her, she inquired, “They seem to be in bad shape. Did you have a hand in this?”
Standing next to her, Timothy replied coldly, “I merely taught them a lesson. They got what was coming to them.”
With her head bowed, Mia couldn’t help but feel a sense of contentment as she observed the two men, looking utterly
disheveled.
After all, who wouldn’t appreciate someone standing up for them like this?
In that instant, Mia’s phone rang. She reached for it and noticed an incoming call from Connor.
Gripping her phone, Mia stole another

glance at Timothy.
As Timothy observed the incoming call flashing on her phone screen, he pursed his lips. “Go ahead, take the call.”
Stepping aside, Mia answered her phone. “Hello.”
“Mia, are you still at campus? I just finished work. I’m on my way to pick you up.”
“It’s okay, you don’t have to. I’m already in the car. I’ll head back myself.”
“Okay, don’t forget your prenatal check- up at the hospital tomorrow morning. For the next appointment, we can schedule it in
Nord City. That way, we won’t need to be secretive about it.”
After confirming with Connor, Mia ended the call, her mind lingering on his words.
Indeed, she was going to leave Bern City
soon.
As Mia turned around, Timothy firmly instructed, “Get in the car. I’ll drive you home.”

After a brief pause, Mia nodded in agreement. However, Timothy fixed her with a penetrating gaze.
As they settled into the car, he couldn’t resist asking, “Why did you lie just now? You hadn’t left yet, so why did you turn down
Connor’s offer to pick you up?”
“Because I need to discuss something with you.”
Mia lifted her gaze to meet Timothy’s, her clear, almond–shaped eyes mirroring his silhouette.
Timothy’s breath hitched, his voice masking his inner turmoil. “So, have you reached a decision?”
“Yes, I have.”
Her response made Timothy’s heart race.
Considering Mia’s past dishonesty, he felt somewhat reassured, believing he could probably predict her decision.
Clearing his throat, Timothy remarked, I trust you’ll make a wise decision.”

Mia took a deep breath and met his gaze. I’ve decided to leave here and move to Nord City.”
Timothy’s fingers quivered slightly as she said that, disbelief flickering in his
eyes.
A tense silence hung in the car for a
moment.
Timothy’s gaze softened, and he pressed his lips together before asking, “How did I fall short compared to Connor?”
Mia avoided Timothy’s gaze, afraid he might see through her true intentions.
With a lump in her throat, she responded, “I’ve decided to have the twins in Nord City. I can’t let them grow up in an unwelcoming
family environment, so I’ve chosen to leave Bern City for their well–being.”
Aware of Timothy’s aversion to children, Mia was determined to keep the fact that her twins were biologically his a secret.
