Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen ) novel Chapter 865

Tension immediately filled the air as Mia turned to see Timothy and Dylan standing in front of the car door.

She remained silent, curious about their confrontation.

However, Dylan showed no signs of yielding. He stood casually by the door, blocking Timothy's access. "Sorry, but Mia and I have plans to dine together tonight. It just doesn't feel right having a bodyguard in tow, you know?"

Dylan was taken aback by the bodyguard's audacity. He had never encountered one so bold as to insist on sitting in the backseat with their employer.

Yet, Timothy stood his ground. "As her bodyguard, it's appropriate for me to sit here."

Dylan persisted, "Actually, it's more suitable for a bodyguard to sit in the front passenger seat."

The two men locked eyes, neither showing any sign of backing down.

In the next moment, Dylan turned to Mia and proposed, "Mia, why don't you decide? Where should the bodyguard sit?"

Mia paused briefly before suggesting, "How about we all sit together and make room for everyone?"

Timothy's expression soured instantly at Mia's suggestion. Through clenched teeth, he objected, "Mia, are you serious? I have no desire to play the third wheel!"

Dylan's temper flared at Timothy's retort. "Watch your language, Mr. Bodyguard," he shot back sharply. "Please keep it civil. There's no need to make a fuss about 'three's a crowd'.

"Mia and I are simply friends, and you're her employee. We're just going out for a meal like any other group of friends. If you hadn't insisted on sitting beside Mia, none of this would have happened!"

Mia's smile faltered slightly at Timothy's remark. With a smirk, she offered, "Dylan, why don't you come sit with me?"

Dylan's demeanor turned smug as he glanced meaningfully at Timothy. "As a bodyguard, you should know how to follow protocol."

With that, Dylan stooped to enter the car and forcefully closed the door.

Outside, Timothy stood alone, adjusting his tie in frustration. His gaze briefly darkened as he glanced at the two figures inside the car.

In all his years, he had never encountered a manipulative "nice guy" who could outwit him!

Indeed, Timothy found Dylan's behavior utterly repulsive.

As Peyton was about to enter the car, Timothy blocked his path and nonchalantly claimed the front passenger seat.
