Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen ) novel Chapter 6

Timothy saw the things that were strewn over the ground. They were all regular clothing. Mia hadn’t taken a single branded item with her.

Hadn’t she married him because she wanted those things? He couldn’t believe she hadn’t taken any of it.

Timothy’s gaze landed on the dirty recyclable bag, and he frowned. “Are you playing hard to get again? Whose pity are you trying to win again? It’s not like Grandma’s here!”

He hadn’t let her down in any way throughout their three-year marriage, aside from not having feelings for her. He’d never been stingy with her.

Even with the divorce, he was going to compensate her a huge sum. It was more than enough for her to live a comfortable life.

Did she really want to leave, or was she just putting on an act?

Mia held her phone tightly, still processing the news of her family having found her. In the past, she’d dreamed of her family finding her one day so she wouldn’t be alone anymore.

She was distracted by these thoughts, but in Timothy’s eyes, this was a silent admission.

Maya pretended to limp as she approached them. “Tim, she packed her things to leave but went to the kitchen to get that dirty recyclable bag to put her stuff in. She refused to listen to me no matter what I said.”

Kaleb chimed in, “I wanted to tell Mrs. Barrett not to use that bag, sir, but she refused to listen. She even threw the clothes all over the ground.

“Honestly, she has a branded suitcase, yet she’s using that recyclable bag to garner pity. If people were to hear about this, they’d think the Barrett family was mistreating her.”

A poignant silence filled the air. Mia stood there motionlessly as she listened to Maya and Kaleb frame her. She fixed her gaze on Timothy, wanting to know what he would say.

He gave her a sharp look and asked coldly, “Don’t you have anything to say?”

It was as she’d expected. A trace of mockery flashed in her eyes. “They’ve already said everything there is to say. I’ve got nothing.”

Timothy wouldn’t believe her regardless of what she said, anyway. There was no point in wasting her breath.
