Chapter 83
Mia was utterly puzzled. What did Timothy mean by that?
In a hushed tone, he continued, “Why? Am I right? So you can’t deny it, can’t you? And I thought you’re always so good with your words.”
Mia attempted to break free from his grip. Yet, his strength was too overpowering for her to struggle her way
out.
Well, she would just play along, then.
She could no longer care less.
Tugging on his tie, she snapped, “Mr. Barrett, I wasn’t two-timing! I’ve never asked you out.”
“Didn’t you text me yesterday? Did you forget about it?”
“Oh, that,” Mia replied as she glanced up at him. “That’s different.”
“How is that different? Go on, try and talk yourself out of this again. The rumors are circulating all over the
internet. Do you think I’m blind?”
She tilted her head to the side, her fingers twirling around his tie as she said, “If that’s what you think, there’s nothing I can do either.”
Timothy was dumbfounded. That sounded like what he always said back then.
Nonetheless, he glared at her and said, “Do you need me to remind you again that you’re still a married
woman? Are you that eager to two-time someone when you haven’t even got a divorce? Are you not worried
that you’re going to end up in trouble?”
“Oh, thanks for your reminder. Well, two-timing might get me into trouble, but that won’t be the case if I date
more than two men at once, right?”
Infuriated, Timothy snapped, “Mia Bowen, why did I not know you’re such a despicable woman?”
“Because we’re just not meant for each other. So, Mr. Barrett, are you free tomorrow? Just drop by at the
courthouse before you go to work, will you?”
He froze and eventually loosened his grip on her.
“Are you that eager to proceed with the divorce so you could live happily ever with your new boyfriend?”
When Mia heard him, she stood up straight and retorted, “I don’t care about your opinion. There’s no need for me to explain to you.”
No matter how she explained herself, he wouldn’t believe her. Thus, she didn’t see the need to explain.
Timothy noticed the crib beside her. He suddenly recalled she was taking folic acid tablets as well.
His expression became grim as he stiffened his lips.
