Timothy maintained a stern expression and said, “I won’t deceive Grandma.”


    He turned to his secretary and said, “Have you found the doctor you were looking for?”


    “Yes, we’ve found someone. They’re experts in this field and are willing to perform the surgery for Mrs.


    Barrett


    Senior.”


    “Very well. Arrange everything as soon as possible, and ask the doctors toe over quickly.”


    The two women beside Timothy exchanged nces. Shelly couldn’t help but speak up, “Timothy, didn’t


    you say that Maya’s brother would perform the surgery for Grandma Laura? I heard that he’s the best


    doctor in this


    field.”


    “I can’t wait that long.”


    He would never fight an unwinnable battle.


    Shelly felt that something was going wrong. If that was the case, then what would happen to Maya?


    She


    needed to inform Maya about this.


    After a sleepless night, Mia woke up and touched her pregnant belly. She was unable to make a


    decision..


    She decided to call her fifth cousin, Jason.


    He answered immediately and asked, “Mia, what’s the matter? Do you need money from me?”

    Mia was somewhat amused by his joke. She said, “Jason, I want to consult you about something.”


    “Yeah, go ahead.”


    “I have a friend who has been married to her husband for several years, and they recently agreed to


    get a


    divorce. However, she discovers that she’s pregnant but doesn’t want to reveal it to her husband’s


    family. She


    wants to keep the child with her.”


    “That’s easy to deal with. After the divorce, she can raise the child by herself. The father has no right to


    the


    child’s custody. Generally, the child stays with the mother.”


    Mia breathed a sigh of relief and asked, “What if the father’s family finds out before their divorce is


    processed and wants to take custody? How can she regain custody?”


    “Mia, is this friend of yours very close to you?”


    “Well, we have a decent rtionship.”


    “Since she’s your good friend, I’m willing to be herwyer. I’ll ensure that your friend regains custody of


    her child no matter what.”


    “Okay, I’ll let her know. I’m not sure what sort of decision she’ll make.”

    better. After all, it was not easy to win a legal battle against the Barrett family, which was very wealthy


    and influential.


    However, Mia couldn’t bear to see Laura suffer from illness without doing anything.


    In the afternoon, Mia went straight to the hospital.


    As soon as she walked out of the elevator, she saw Maya standing before Timothy. The two were very


    close, almost as if they were embracing each other.


    Mia stopped in her tracks. She then said loudly, “It seems I came at the wrong time.”


    Timothy’s expression stiffened when he heard her voice, and he subconsciously stepped back,


    widening the distance between him and Maya.


    When Maya turned around and saw Mia, a hint of provocation shed across her eyes. “It’s fine.


    There’s nothing between us anymore.”


    Mia felt a tightness in her chest. She wanted to turn and leave but thought of Laura’s condition, so she


    decided to stay instead. She walked toward the two of them.


    Mia looked at Maya and said calmly, “When is Grandma Laura’s surgery going to start?”


    Maya couldn’t meet Mia’s eyes. She answered with feignedposure, “That depends on many


    factors. It should be soon if things go well.”


    Mia knew what Maya was implying.


    She looked at Timothy and said, “Let’s go to the courthouse now and get a divorce.”
