Chapter 369
Timothy froze. He couldn’t believe his ears. How dare Mia go to the hospital to take care of that cunning bastard?
Adjusting his tie, he snapped. “That’s so kind of her, isn’t it?”
Right after he taught Felix a lesson, she eagerly went to the hospital to take care of him. She was literally disregarding him.
Could it be that she liked Felix? But didn’t she say the opposite last time? Indeed, women were skilled at deception.
Palpable tension hung in the hotel room.
Timothy looked like someone had just punched the living daylights out of him. Feeling terrified. Heath dared not utter a single word.
He knew Timothy would definitely be furious once he reported this situation to him. Yet, if he didn’t report it and Timothy found out later, he’d surely be fired.
Sometimes, he’d rather face the consequences right away than have to anticipate it.
Heath glanced at his watch, and added in a strained tone, “Mr. Barrett, you have to attend a very important banquet tonight. It’s hosted by the music colossus, Clement Sallow.
“It seems like he intended to pave the way for his daughter. He had called several times to invite you after learning you were in town.”
Heath thought Clement seemed intrigued to introduce his daughter to Timothy instead.
Timothy remained silent. He took out his phone and contemplated texting Mia. However, he didn’t know what to say, so he called her instead.
Meanwhile, Mia was peeling fruits for Felix. Her phone rang all of a sudden.
The caller ID was “Scumbag“.
Her face was flushed as she muttered, “I have to answer the call.”
In a hurry, she left the ward with her phone. She didn’t expect Timothy to call her. Could it be that he had come back from his business trip?
She cleared her throat before answering. “Anything?”

His voice sounded cold on the other end of the phone. “Well, Mia, I didn’t expect you’d be so generous. Why haven’t I realized that back then?”
“What do you mean?” Mia was scolded for no reason. Nonetheless, she couldn’t wrap her mind
around what he meant.
“What do I mean? Are you trying to play dumb right now? My staff told me you were taking care of
that cunning bastard at the hospital.
“Didn’t you say you didn’t like him? Why are you taking care of him as soon as he’s injured?” Timothy didn’t even realize his voice was dripping with jealousy. He felt like he was having some difficulty breathing.
Ma wasn’t entirely pleased when she was criticized out of nowhere. She scoffed. “Why? Do you have a problem with them? I did say I didn’t like him, but that doesn’t stop me from leading him
He felt like his blood pressure skyrocketed after her remark.
