Unable to tolerate the situation any longer, Timothy rose to his feet. He nced at the group of young
men, calmly removed his wristwatch, and tossed it outside the door. “Whoever grabs it first can keep it.”
For a moment, everyone was stunned.
Keith sneered, “How much could this watch possibly cost anyway?”
Raising an eyebrow, Mia replied, “It’s not that expensive, just a little over 80 thousand
dors.”
The moment her words trailed off, the young men, including Keith, swiftly stood up and dashed toward
the door.
With a cold expression, Timothy strode over and closed the door, ensuring it was securely
locked.
The room finally settled into a tranquil atmosphere..
Mia arched an eyebrow, ncing at Timothy before her. “Are you seriously going to discard an 80–
thousand–dor watch like that?”
Timothy stepped closer, his toneced with sarcasm. “Looks like your taste in men isn’t quite up to par;
they’re willing to walk away over a mere 80 thousand bucks.”
“Well, who can resist the allure of money? If you handed me 80 thousand dors, I’d make way for you
too,” Mia quipped in response.
Timothy’s demeanor turned serious as he gazed at Mia before him, questioning, “What did you want to
talk about by inviting me here?”
“A woman doesn’t summon a man in the dead of night just for conversation, Mr. Barrett. Are you truly
that naive?”
Timothy’s expression darkened upon seeing Mia sporting that familiar smug expression once again, his
irritation intensifying as he noticed the dimples forming at the corners of

her mouth.
Just then, Timothy approached Mia and leaned in, pushing her down onto the couch.
Peering down at Mia from above, Timothy spoke, “Ms. Monalize, given your unmistakable hints,
wouldn’t it be disrespectful if I didn’t take any action?”
Seeing Timothy draw nearer, Mia’s heart suddenly began to race with anticipation.
It seemed Timothy wasn’t ying by the usual rules, was he?
Before Mia realized what was happening, her feet left the ground as she was swept away.
In a matter of moments, Mia found herself in the bedroom, a sense of unease creeping over her. “Mr.
Barrett, what are you doing?”
As Mia found herself pressed against the plush bed, Timothy held her firmly on both sides, his voice
maintaining a gentle tone. “Isn’t this what you wanted by inviting me here? Why the sudden change of
heart?”
Timothy was curious to see how long Mia could keep up her charade.
Locking eyes with Timothy, Mia refused to betray any vulnerability. Suddenly, she wrapped her arms
tightly around his neck and pushed him down.
Perched on top of him, Mia looked down and dered, “So, Mr. Barrett, I guess this makes us an
official couple, doesn’t it? Perfect. I’ll make sure you get the reishi mushroom. But if we’re going to be
together, you’ll need to abide by my conditions.”
Her cascading curls framed her face, and a bold grin yed on her lips.
Nheless, Timothy appeared somewhat preupied, his eyes narrowing slightly. “What
conditions?”
“As my boyfriend, your devotion to me must be unwavering, with me holding the sole ce in your
heart. From now on, you must prioritize treating me with kindness above all else.
“Your affection toward me must be genuine, with no room for deceit. Everymitment you make to
me must be fulfilled, and your words should always reflect sincerity.
“I will not tolerate any form of deception or verbal abuse; instead, I anticipate your genuine care and
concern for me.
“In moments of mistreatment from others, I expect you to swiftlye to my aid without hesitation. My
joy should be your shared delight, and in times of sorrow, you must uplift my spirits.”
Timothy let out a soft chuckle in response. It seemed she was seeking hismitment, after all.
As Mia finished her rapid deration, she tenderly ced her hand on his cheek. “And most
importantly, you must forget about your ex–wife.”
