Chapter 68
Maya’s eyes flickered when she met Timothy’s gaze.
“It’s true. If you don’t believe me, ask Holly then. She was there all the time.”
Timothy glanced over at Holly, who noticed the warning look in Maya’s eyes.
She lowered her head immediately as she stammered, “Mr. Barrett, I-I was in the kitchen. I didn’t really see
what happened.”
Maya’s gaze tumed cold. She didn’t expect Holly to disobey her.
She hurriedly explained, “Tim, I didn’t know Ms. Bowen was the new designer. After all, you haven’t been satisfied with all the designers I’ve found. Ms. Bowen was responsible for our home renovation back then, so I
thought you’d like her design. That’s why I didn’t ask for your permission.”
With a stoic expression, Timothy strode toward the couch and picked up the design. It seemed so much better
to him as he flipped through it.
When he saw the design of a photo wall on the first page, he frowned.
“What’s this?”
“Tim, I thought it’d be nice for us to have a photo wall here. What do you think?”
“I think it’s better to have a funeral portrait there,” Timothy snapped. (1
Maya was taken aback by his words.
She forced a smile as she replied, “T-Then forget about it.”
Timothy set down the design as he glanced up at her and asked, “What are you doing here?”
With a hard-set smile, Maya answered, “I bought some fresh seafood and was thinking of making some for
you. I brought Mrs. Barrett some as well,”
“No need for that. Don’t do things like this in the future.”
Defiance flickered in Maya’s eyes as she watched Timothy ascending the stairs.
She turned toward Holly and dragged her to the kitchen.
A loud slap was delivered to Holly’s face as Maya scoffed, “What did you mean earlier? Didn’t you understand what I meant? You’re going to be very sorry if it happens again!”
She vented her anger on Holly. There was no way she would let that bitch, Mia, off the hook for taking it out on her..
When Mia arrived home, she realized there was a cut on her lips.
