Mia did not expect to bump into Timothy here. Sometimes, fate wasn’t exactly kind to her.
Naturally, Felix saw him as well. His eyes lit up once he realized Timothy was engaged to Maya, the daughter of the Lane family.
Tension hung in the air as they met in front of the restaurant.
Mia quickly averted her gaze.
“Mrs. Quilter, let’s head to our private room.”
However, Felix stepped forward and approached Timothy.
“Mr. Barrett, what a coincidence! Are you dining at this restaurant as well?”
Mia’s heart skipped a beat when she saw him greeting Timothy. When did he become friendly

She saw him saying, “Sure.”
Mia was flabbergasted. Struggling to grasp the situation, it finally dawned on her that Timothy had accepted Janice’s invitation.
What w
was wrong with him? Or has the end of the world loomed nearer?
Felix was equally taken aback. The last thing he’d expect was Timothy agreeing to dine with them.
Feeling absolutely irrational, Mia pondered on the possibility of leaving their company right now.
Janice was waving at her.
“Mia, what are you doing at the entrance? Hurry up and join us!”
