Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen

Chapter 565

Mia stood on the bustling street, watching him intently.

Passersby couldn't help but notice Timothy's striking appearance, causing them
to turn their heads.

Under the dim streetlight, Timothy's gaze appeared somewhat uneasy as he
responded, “Mia, are you truly that self-absorbed?” m

As soon as the words left his mouth, Timothy immediately regretted them,
pursing his lips.

Mia nodded. “Well, Mr. Barrett, if you're not interested in me, please stop being
around me or making these kind gestures. It might give me the wrong idea that
you're developing feelings for me.”

Timothy's throat tightened. “I do these things because... because I want to
compensate for neglecting you over the past three years.”

It seemed that Mia wasn't the stereotypical gold—digger he had once imagined.
Mia's eyes showed a subtle fatigue, her mouth carrying a hint of bitterness. She
replied with a feigned. nonchalance, “Compensate? So, what do you think I'm
lacking right now?”

Considering Mia's position as the heiress of the Lane family, Timothy believed
she lacked nothing and

was well-provided for.

He pursed his lips, responding, “This is different.”

But Mia pushed back, saying. “There's nothing different. When the Barrett family
turned me away. Mr. Barrett, there was no trace of guilt from you. It was just your
family’s condescension and oppression.

“Now, as the heiress of the Lane family, I have everything I could want. So, when
you suddenly claim it's out of guilt that you want to compensate me, who would
believe such a story?”

Timothy frowned. “Do you think I'm treating you this way because of your status?
Is that the impression

you have of me?”

“Then what, Mr. Barrett? If you genuinely regret your actions, then act like a
decent ex-husband! Stop pretending as if you don't exist.”

Timothy's expression turned grim. Mia had previously compared a responsible
ex-husband to being essentially nonexistent.

After Mia spoke, she turned and walked away.

Within moments, Antonio's car pulled up beside her. “Ms. Mia, are you ready to
leave?”

Without a word, Mia bent down and entered the car.

She leaned back in her seat, mulling over Timothy's words. They struck her as
utterly absurd.

The notion of him compensating her felt unnecessary. She didn’t need it at all.
Timothy stood alone on the roadside for a while before eventually entering his
car.

He pulled out his phone and dialed a number. “Grandma, I need your help with
something...”

Mia rode back to campus in Antonio's car.

Throughout her afternoon study session, she found it difficult to focus, with
Timothy's actions weighing

heavily on her mind.

As Mia prepared to pack up and head home for dinner, she received a call from
Jeremy. “Hello, is

everything alright?” she answered.

“Hey Mia, are you at the campus right now?”

“Yes, I'm in the study hall.”

“Be careful. Ramona is heading to the university to look for you. I made a
mistake by mentioning our

lunch in the group chat.

“Ramona insisted on reaching out to you, but I didn’t give her your phone
number. Despite that, I have a

up

feeling she might still turn on campus.”

Mia frowned. “I understand.”

After ending the call, Mia slung her backpack over her shoulder and exited the
study hall.

Departing from campus early would likely spare her from crossing paths with
Ramona.

Nonetheless, trouble seemed to have a knack for finding her, regardless of her
efforts.
