Timothy was at a loss for words. Of course he wouldn''t do that. He looked as if someone punched the


    living daylights out of him as he snapped, "How dare you chat with him in front of me? Are you ignoring


    me?"


    The malice evident on Timothy''s face stunned Brian.


    Brian''s puzzled gaze darted between Timothy and Mia as he asked, "Ms. Lane, who is this?"


    "l don''t know him."


    Timothy looked at her. "Can you stop making a scene?"


    Mia nced over at him and replied, "You''re one to talk.”


    Timothy turned toward Brian and said coldly, "She''s my girlfriend. Do I need to make it any clearer?"


    However, Brian shed a smile and replied, "Ms. Lane has many admirers. Countless men had shown


    up, iming to be her boyfriend. I''ll only believe you if she confirms it."


    "Do you have a lot of boyfriends?" Timothy gritted his teeth.


    Mia hesitated for a moment before answering, "Well, that was ages ago. Attracting so many suitors


    can''t be helped when I''m just too outstanding. "


    Timothy looked like he had just swallowed a lemon.


    "Do you need my help?" Brian inquired.


    Mia was overwhelmed by the overt tension in the air. To save Brian from any potential trouble, she


    finally said, "Not for now, thank you. See you in Nord City."


    Timothy frowned. How dare they schedule having a meal together in Nord City right in front of him?


    Was he practically invisible to them?

    Just then, Sofia asked tentatively, "Mr. Barrett?"


    "Get lost!" he snarled, visibly irritated.


    Sofia had also noticed the unusual rtionship between Timothy and Mia. She took her leave tactfully,


    steering clear of any trouble.


    Composed, Mia sat in her seat and ate fruit. She could feel his piercing gaze on her as he scrutinized


    her.


    She turned to him and asked innocently, “Why are you looking at me like that?"


    "Do you really have no idea?” Timothy clenched his jaw.


    Mia smirked and replied, "I know I''m pretty, but feel free to gape at me though. I''m not going to charge


    you anyway."


    Timothy nearly lost his temper. He loosened his tie and stared at her. "It''s been four years, but you piss


    me off as easily as always.”


    "I told you I lost my memories. I don''t remember a thing from the past.”


    "You might have lost your memories, but you''ve never forgotten that talent of yours," Timothy remarked


    Mia arched her brows. "Really? My brothers said I''m an angel. You''re the only one who thinks I have a


    bad temper. Have you ever reflected on whether it''s your problem?”


    Timothy was rendered speechless. Feeling resigned, he gave up on their argument.


    Heath handed a few documents to him to work on after they finished their meal.


    Feeling quite bored, Mia nced over at the pile of documents on his desk and caught sight of the


    words "Aide Castle” among them.


    She suddenly recalled that the Barrett family had intended to have a partnership with her. However, this


    issue was temporarily put on hold due to the bone marrow incident.


    Mia couldn''t help but probe. "Why do you have information on Aide Castle? Are you nning to


    coborate with them?"
