Chapter 425
Mia was taken aback as she looked at the shredded papers, marveling at how swiftly Maya had torn through the thick document.
She seemed to be genuinely furious.
With the papers now reduced to fragments, Maya fixed a piercing glare on Mia. “You won’t be able to sign it now,” she stated firmly.
With Mia unable to sign the divorce document, its validity was unquestionably voided.
Mia kept her silence, directing her gaze at Timothy instead. She inquired, “What’s our next step?”
Mia understood that she couldn’t intervene directly, but she also discerned that Maya had indirectly presented a solution. With the document torn to shreds, its legal validity was now nullified.
Seeing the hint of satisfaction in Mia’s eyes, Timothy’s smile vanished instantly. Speaking calmly, he remarked, “I have another copy.”
Mia was completely shocked by this revelation.
Meanwhile, Maya’s cries grew even louder.
Despite nearly losing her temper, Mia chose to respond with a smile upon noticing Maya’s distressed
state.
“That’s wonderful, Mr. Barrett. Just remember to bring it to me next time. I’ll print out another copy sign it for you. Don’t forget, alright?”

Maya was caught off guard.

Indeed, Maya had tirelessly strived to leave behind her orphan status, eventually securing her position as the heiress of the Lane family.
Her long–standing goal was to marry into an esteemed family and achieve the status of a wealthy and influential young lady.
Nonetheless, Maya was not about to reveal her true feelings. She swiftly countered, “Certainly, it wouldn’t bother me. But what entitles you to take such a large sum of money?”
“Because Timothy is willing. Do you have any say in the matter?” With those words, Mia swiftly walked
off the stage.
Growing anxious, Maya turned to Timothy, questioning. “Are you honestly going to walk away with nothing and transfer all your assets to Mia?”
Maya still couldn’t wrap her head around it!
How could a man act in such a manner? Particularly Timothy, who came from a wealthy lineage and possessed numerous assets. After all, he didn’t exactly build everything from the ground up with Mia.
