Chapter 23

“Mia, why aren’t you answering the question? Say something.”

Mia cast an awkward glance at Timothy before muttering, “W-What am I supposed to say? You should ask Timothy about it.”

Why were they making things difficult for her?

Save for that one time, Timothy never slept with her, so how was she supposed to get pregnant?

Timothy cleared his throat before responding. “Why’re you asking about such things, Mom? We’ve been using contraception. That’s why she hasn’t gotten pregnant. I don’t plan on having any kids yet.”

When Mia heard his last sentence, she looked down at her abdomen. It seemed like she truly needed to protect this baby of hers.

Laura chimed in anxiously, “You’re already 30 years old. Why don’t you want to have kids yet? I’m afraid I’m going to die before I get to see you become a father.”

“Grandma, as long as you agree to get the surgery, you’ll definitely live enough to see that happening,” Timothy said.

“Hah! Don’t even try to use that on me. You want me to agree to the surgery? Sure. I will when Mia’s pregnant. Otherwise, I won’t even consider it.”

Once Laura finished speaking, she turned around and left.

While following her out, Martha quietly assured, “Ms. Mia and Mr. Barrett have a good relationship. I’m sure it’s only a matter of time before they have a child.”
