Meet My Brothers

Maxa trailed closely behind Sharon, a hint of disapproval crossing her face when she noticed Mia seated.

Although Mia perceived Maya’s scrutinizing gaze, her present circumstances left her with little capacity to reffect on it.

With a commanding tone, Sharon directed Mia, “Stand, Mia! We can’t have Ms. Lane standing. She’s an esteemed quest

As Mia began to stand, Laura held her back, but Timothy quietly murmured, “Stay seated. It’s fine.”

Sharon promptly argued, “Tim, what’s the issue? Can’t Mia stand briefly? Ms. Lane went out of her way to

come visit and we couldn’t even offer her a seat. It might become town gossip if we don’t.”

Maya tactfully added. “It’s quite alright, Mrs. Barrett. I can stand.”

Laura responded with a touch of sternness, “Mia is expecting, she ought to sit.”

The news landed like an unexpected bombshell.

Mayo was at a loss for words.

Sharon, looking at Mia in disbelief, exclaimed. “That can’t be right. How did this happen so suddenly?”

Defensively, Laura countered, “What are you implying? Aren’t you pleased about Mia’s pregnancy?”

A sinking feeling enveloped Sharon, realizing that Mia’s alleged pregnancy could jeopardize Maya’s future

with Timothy.

Timothy intervened with a firm tone. “That’s enough. Grandma needs her rest. Let’s step outside.”

Laura dismissed him with a cheerful demeanor. “Tim, take care of Mia and the little one on the way.”

She continued with a reassuring smile. “And don’t worry about me, just schedule the surgery. I’ll make sure to

take good care of my great–grandchild as they grow up.”

Hearing Laura’s agreement to the surgery lifted a weight off Mia’s shoulders.

As the group left the room, an awkward tension lingered.

Disregarding the others, Mia headed straight for the elevator, eager to leave.

Sharon pulled Timothy aside, her voice hushed as she admonished, “Tim, didn’t I warn you against getting Mia pregnant? Couldn’t you have been more cautious and taken preventive steps?”

Faced with his mother’s straightforward remarks, Timothy’s mouth twitched subtly. “Mom, this concerns me

cirectly.”

“It’s not just your life on the line anymore. With Mia expecting, we need to consider Ms. Lane and her family. Marrying into these circumstances might not be readily accepted by them.” Sharon retorted.

Sharon had envisioned a prosperous heiress as her future daughter–in–law. Just as that dream appeared

As Mia emerged from the elevator, Maya’s voice sharply resonated, “Wait.”

Before Mia could respond, Maya swiftly descended the stairs and forcefully gripped Mia’s wrist. “You’re faking this pregnancy, aren’t you?”

Maya still questioned whether Mia’s pregnancy was genuine.

Just as Mia was about to respond, Timothy stepped out of the elevator. Alarmed, Mia forcefully pushed Maya away, demanding, “Let go of me!”

From her peripheral vision, Maya also noticed Timothy’s presence.

With a calculated coldness in her gaze, she abruptly released her grip and feigned a fall, creating the illusion that Mia had shoved her to the ground. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

As Mia’s hold loosened, she staggered backward, her complexion turning pale. Instinctively, she cradled her belly, prioritizing the safety of her unborn child.

Maya’s gaze swiftly found Timothy, her eyes filled with desperation. “Timothy, please help!”

At the same time, Mia instinctively turned to Timothy, seeking support.
