Chapter 557
After being interrupted. Timothy glanced briefly at Claude before reluctantly
shifting his gaze toward Mia.
Mia met his gaze and stated. “I'm home now. You should go back.”
Timothy furrowed his brows, insisting, “I have a few things I'd like to tell you.”
Although his words were cut short by Claude's interruption, Timothy still wanted
to clarify what he meant.
Mia suggested. “We can discuss it later. There's no need to hurry at the
moment.”
She then addressed Dominic and Claude. “Let's head back. It's pouring outside,
and I'm already soaked.”
Mia didn’t want to linger any longer, fearing another confrontation might arise.
Noticing Mia's damp clothes from her earlier attempt to intervene, Dominic
reluctantly agreed, “Alright.
let's go. Make sure to change into dry clothes as soon as possible. We don’t want
you catching a cold.”
Timothy could only watch helplessly as Mia walked away, gradually fading from
his view.
Alone in the pouring rain, Timothy felt the cold drops beating against his face, his
usually charming
appearance now disheveled in the downpour.
In the world of business, Timothy was accustomed to being in control, but with
Mia, he felt a sense of
powerlessness that was unfamiliar to him.
Heath retrieved the umbrella from the ground and approached Timothy, holding it
over him. “Mr. Barrett.
the rain is getting heavier. We should head back,” he suggested cautiously.
Nonetheless, Timothy stood in silence, unmoving. His gaze shifted upwards
toward the nearby
residential building, its illuminated windows emitting a gentle warmth.
In that moment. Timothy couldn't help but reflect on the emptiness of his own
home. From his initial
discomfort to the present moment, he slowly came to realize, albeit belatedly, the
true extent of what he
had lost.
As Mia stepped into the elevator with her brothers, she wiped the raindrops off
her forehead.
Standing beside her, Claude asked, “Mia, why did you return with Timothy today?
Weren't you planning to
take a cab?”

Mia replied, “I didn’t mean to keep it from you guys, but with such heavy rain,
taking a cab didn’t seem
like a safe choice.
“So. I decided to share a ride back. But please don’t worry, this small incident
won't sway me. After all,
Timothy and I are already divorced.”
She then turned to Dominic, calmly reassuring him, “Dominic, I understand your
concern, but trust me, I won't change my mind.
“As the heiress of the Lane family, I have the freedom to make my own choices.
Besides, a good horse doesn't graze on what's behind it.”
Dominic affectionately patted her hair and said, “Alright, go back and take a
warm shower quickly. We don’t want you catching a cold.”
Claude added, “We'll stay out here.”
With a nod, Mia exited the elevator and entered her home.
Dominic and Claude watched her until she was safely inside before departing.
Dominic's previously gentle expression instantly hardened.
sure someone keeps an eye on
Timothy. We can't risk any trouble from him until Mia finishes her exams and
leaves Bern City.”
“Dominic, trust me, I'll take care of this.”
