Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen ) novel Chapter 829

Timothy's brows furrowed. "Where are my secretary and bodyguard?"

"After you arrived at the hospital yesterday, everyone who accompanied you left. They didn't settle the medical fees or provide any contact details," the nurse explained.

"That's impossible," Timothy retorted.

A sense of unease washed over him. His staff wouldn't leave without a valid explanation.

Instinctively, he reached under his pillow, but his phone was nowhere to be found.

His phone was supposed to be in Heath's possession, yet both Heath and Joe were conspicuously absent.

Timothy had a strong suspicion about who might be responsible for this situation.

It appeared that the Lane family would stop at nothing to get rid of him.

This was Timothy's first experience with such a predicament. However, he responded calmly, saying, "Once I'm able to contact them, they'll handle the medical expenses. Please rest assured, I won't postpone the payment."

Mia stood silently beside them, her thoughts echoing Timothy's suspicions that Heath and Joe had probably been abducted on Claude's orders.

It seemed the goal was to leave Timothy isolated and vulnerable in the hospital.

"I apologize, sir, but due to numerous prior incidents, we require your family to settle the medical expenses immediately, or we'll be forced to discharge you."

Upon hearing this, Timothy suddenly shifted his gaze toward Mia, who stood by the door.

Feeling Timothy's scrutiny, Mia found herself overcome with unease.

"She's my family," Timothy asserted.

"Can I leave now?" Mia wondered silently to herself.

As she stood by the door, her unease intensified at Timothy's words.

It seemed Timothy was trying to deceive the hospital staff.

With a solemn tone, Mia addressed him, "Mr. Barrett, you can't just manipulate your words. Since when did I become your family?"
