Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen

Glancing at Mia, Sage inquired, "Mommy, why are you asking this question?"
Given Ginger's affection for Timothy, Mia was interested in comprehending Sage's viewpoint as well.
A smile graced Mia's lips as she responded, "Just curious, that's all." "Mommy, I have no interest in seeing him. Ginger might have been influenced, but not me." Sage's stance was unwavering; he had no intention of acknowledging Timothy.
Mia couldn't help but notice the striking similarities between Sage and Timothy, extending beyond mere physical resemblance to encompass their personalities. Therefore, Sage's hesitation to acknowledge Timothy didn't come as a surprise.
Two men, one older and one younger, both exhibiting a common streak of stubbornness.
Mia offered Sage a comforting pat on the head. "It's alright. However you choose to engage with him, it's entirely your decision. Mommy won't meddle.”
"Mommy, does that mean you won't intervene if we choose to accept that man in the future?"
Feeling a pang of sorrow, Mia replied, "Yes, I won't interfere."
After all, she believed that every child deserves to have a father.
Sage spoke sincerely, "Mommy, since that man didn't want us before, I won't acknowledge him now. Don't let his sweet talk fool you." "Mommy won't," Mia assured him.
Observing Sage thrive and grow stirred a complex array of emotions within Mia. When Sage was born, doctors had predicted he wouldn't survive past a month.
Yet, in what felt like the blink of an eye, he was already four years old. At dinner, Ginger and Sage eventually made amends, their earlier argument seemingly forgotten.
As Mia checked her phone, she spotted a missed call from Peyton. Stepping outside to return the call, she asked, "What's up?"
"Ms. Mia, remember how you tasked me with keeping an eye on Mr. Barrett? Well, today he went straight to the Barrett Group's branch office. I suspect it's probably to handle the partnership with the Bowen family."
"Okay, thanks for letting me know," Mia said before hanging up.
She had expected Timothy to take charge of the situation. However, Ralph's involvement would undoubtedly complicate matters. Regardless, it appeared that Timothy would encounter some trouble ahead.
Another day had passed.
At the luxurious five-star hotel, Timothy found himself immersed in managing the conglomerate's affairs. Having been absent for several days, there was a considerable backlog of work demanding his attention.
Upon concluding a video conference, he turned to Heath and inquired, "When is the signing ceremony with the Bowen family scheduled?" "It's set for 2:00 pm, at The Grand Auburn Hotel," Heath responded promptly.
"Very well, is everything arranged?" Timothy asked, his eyes glinting with resolve.
He was determined to thwart any potential partnership between the Barrett Group's branch office and the Bowen family.
In the past, Timothy had never directly overseen the operations of the Nord City branch.
Given the Lane family's considerable influence in the city, they consistently undermined the branch's business operations.
Timothy understood the underlying reasons and therefore refrained from
imposing any demands on the subsidiary's performance.
Despite these obstacles, Timothy had no desire to pursue a partnership with a company such as the Bowen Group.
Caleb cast a glance at Timothy and inquired, "Any updates from Mrs. Barrett's end?"
Given Timothy's recent visit to the subsidiary to discuss terminating the partnership, it seemed likely that Ralph would enlist Sharon's intervention.
Before Timothy could respond, his phone buzzed with an incoming call from Sharon.
Waving his phone in his hand, he commented, "Well, speak of the devil, right?"

Taking out his phone, Caleb suggested, "I'll give her a call and find out."
