ncing down at Timothy, Mia couldn’t help but notice the shift in his expression. Instinctively, she
remarked, “What’s wrong? Can’t youply with this?”
Without hesitation, Timothy pushed her aside and rose to his feet.
Mia nearly stumbled but managed to steady herself just in time.
Observing Timothy by the bedside, Mia remarked, “Mr. Barrett, my proposition seems quite reasonable,
wouldn’t you agree?”
In the depths of her eyes, there was a glimmer ofplexity. It dawned on her that she had mistaken
him for someone else.
Timothy was, in fact, her ex–husband, the scoundrel she had once been married to!
Yet, Mia refused to acknowledge it, preferring instead to taunt Timothy before her.
Timothy stood by the bed, calmly adjusting his shirt, his heart weighed down by Mia’s
words.
If she truly were Mia, wouldn’t she ask about their past instead of making such a proposition at this
critical moment?
Perhaps it was bing evident–she might not be Mia after all, just someone bearing a striking
resemnce.
After adjusting his attire, Timothy turned to Mia on the bed, his gaze prating. “Indeed, it’s an
enticing offer, but I’m sorry, I must decline.”
“And why is that?” Mia inquired, somewhat unwilling to ept Timothy’s rejection and eager to
understand his reasoning.
Mia doubted that Timothy’s refusal was due to lingering feelings for her, which might exin his
reluctance to pursue a rtionship with another woman.
If that were the case, Mia wouldn’t have endured such hardship in the past.
Locked in a silent exchange, Timothy stared deeply into her eyes, his gaze carrying a hint of scrutiny.
“I’m not interested in other women,” he dered before exiting the bedroom.
Left alone, Mia watched his departing figure, a sense of exasperation creeping over her. She couldn’t
help but wonder why Timothy insisted he wasn’t interested in other women.
It seemed that men often failed to value what they had until they lost it, only then realizing their regrets.
Mia wasted no time in summoning Wade. “Has Timothy been involved with other women during these
years?”
Wade promptly responded, “There’s a woman named Luna Maynard, and she has a son who appears
to be around the same age as Ms. Ginger.”
“Damn, he even has a child,” Mia muttered as realization sank in.
Given that both Luna’s son and Ginger were simr in age, it became apparent that Timothy had
indeed been unfaithful to Mia back then.

A glint of coldness flickered in as she realized that everything she had endured back then was because
of Luna.
Well, it seemed that merely pping her was too lenient a form of retribution.
Wade cautiously suggested, “Ms. Mia, considering the despicable nature of the Barretts, perhaps it’s
best to refrain from investing any more time in them.”
Wade feared that any further interaction could lead to unforeseen consequences, and he dreaded the
prospect of bearing the responsibility.
After all, Timothy was someone Mia had once loved!
Mia rose from the bed. “You’re right. I’ve wasted far too much time on the Barrett family.”
Indeed, Timothy was nothing more than a scoundrel, not deserving of her time or energy.
ncing at the time, Mia realized it waste; she might as well return to apany Ginger to sleep.
She casually draped herself in a bathrobe and stepped out. However, as she exited the hotel. room,
someone suddenly hurled a bucket of water at her, drenching herpletely!

In that instant, the silence was so deafening that Mia could hear a pin drop.
With aposed demeanor, she wiped the water from her face and lifted her gaze to see Luna
standing beside her, her lips forming a cold smile. “Seems like you’re asking for trouble!”
Luna was furious. “You shameless, wicked woman, give Tim back to me! Let me make it clear,
shameless women like you will never marry into the Barrett family, nor will Tim’s mother ever ept
you!”
