Chapter 128
Mia had quickly come up with a plausible excuse.
Noticing Connor’s lingering suspicion, she deftly changed the topic, “Connor, how did you figure out it was
Timothy who accompanied me to the hospital?”
Even though Mia had referenced her role as a caregiver in an affluent household, Timothy had maintained
discretion on the matter.
So, how did Connor immediately discern that Timothy was the one who had accompanied her?
A flicker of hesitation crossed Connor’s face.
Could it be that Connor was familiar with Timothy due to Maya’s longstanding affection for him?
Naturally, revealing such a connection to his sister was out of the question.
After a brief pause, Connor responded, “The registration and payment details displayed the name ‘Timothy.‘ A single glance was enough for me to recognize it.”
A sudden realization dawned on Mia. She hadn’t been aware that Timothy had also taken care of her medical
expenses.
She delicately touched her belly, feeling a wave of gratitude for running into Connor. Without his unexpected appearance, concealing her pregnancy today would have been a challenge.
If Timothy had urged Mia to follow the prescribed medication, she might have felt compelled to disclose the truth for the safety of her unborn child.
Connor’s attention turned to Mia’s belly. “Mia, are you planning to keep the baby?”
Mia’s hand paused, her resolve evident. “Yes, Connor, I’ve decided to keep this child. I’ll work tirelessly to make sure we have everything we need.”
“It’s not just about the finances, Mia. Why would you want to keep the child of such a scoundrel?”
“Because, for the first time. I won’t be alone,” Mia confessed.
A sudden pang gripped Connor’s heart. He momentarily shielded his face before regaining his composure. “If that’s what you truly want, then so be it.”
“By the way, Connor, I haven’t shared my pregnancy with anyone, not even Aunt Patricia. Can you help me keep it confidential?”
“Of course. And for now, it might also be wise not to inform Dominic. He may be understanding most of the time, but he can be impulsive. I don’t want him to push you into any hasty decisions about the pregnancy,” Connor agreed.
“Don’t take this the wrong way, but Dominic may have concerns about you taking on the role of a single mother,” Connor advised.

Mia nodded appreciatively. “I understand, Connor. Thank you.”
For Mia, she wasn’t just facing single motherhood–she was also navigating the complexities of being an unwed mother.
In many ways, the two roles seemed intertwined.
