Chapter 205
Connor tensed as soon as the nurse said that.
He was on the verge of being exposed!
Dubious, Mia looked at him. “Sister?”
She wondered if he had another sister.
He quickly explained, “Mia, you’re my only sister. I swear!”
Never once had he acknowledged Maya as his sister.
Connor’s nervous reaction tickled Mia’s funny bones. “I didn’t even say anything, Connor. Why so tense?”
It was as though a girlfriend caught her boyfriend cheating on her.
He let out a wry cough. “Anyway, I just wanted to straighten things out.”
He turned to face the nurse. “I got it. I’ll leave in a while.”
The nurse was interrupted midway because he knew who the guest was.
Today, Connor had an appointment with Timothy to discuss the surgical plan.
Who would’ve expected Mia to be sent to the emergency room? Her well–being was of utmost importance at the moment.
“You should go ahead, Connor. I can manage here.”
Felix reassured him, “Don’t worry. I’ll look after her.”
Connor nodded. “Rest up, Mia. We’ll head home together later.”

He pushed the door open to see Maya and Timothy. His expression spoke of tranquility.

“Yes. There was an emergency.”
Maya’s eyes lit up. “Was the patient a woman?”

Timothy suddenly cast his gaze in Connor’s direction, eager to know the answer.
If it was really Mia, Timothy wondered how she was doing right now.
Connor’s skeptical gaze alternated between the duo before fixating upon Timothy.
Memories of Timothy taking Mia to the hospital conjured up in Connor’s head, prompting a negative answer

He would never admit that, in hope that Mia sever ties with Timothy for good.
Maya sighed inwardly. It was a missed opportunity for her. If the patient turned out to be Mia, Maya could
seize the chance to degrade Mia, tarnishing her reputation further.
Timothy averted his gaze and suggested, “Let’s focus on the matter at hand.”
He personally came over to discuss the surgical plan for Laura’s case.
