Chapter 25

Mia thought that if she ever told anyone else about it, she would probably get snuffed out!

Timothy pursed his lips and scoffed, “Don’t get ahead of yourself. I was just pretending for Grandma’s sake, I’m not interested in you.”

Mia stood up. “That means I can leave now, right?”

“Hold it. What if Grandma finds out you leave alone in the middle of the night? How am I supposed to explain things to her?”

Mia thought about Laura’s chilly hands. Hesitating, she asked, “When is Grandma going to get surgery?”

“Didn’t you hear her? She refuses to get one.”

Frowning, Timothy added, “Before she agrees to get the surgery, don’t tell her about our divorce.”

“Alright,” Mia agreed without hesitation. “I’ll try my best to get Grandma to agree to the surgery.”

Timothy’s expression improved. “Let’s sleep.”

Mia took out her phone and sent Patricia a text. “Aunt Patricia, I won’t be coming back tonight. Help me inform Dominic.”

She had promised to head back tonight, but there was no way she could leave now.

Laura’s health had deteriorated. Mia couldn’t let Laura worry about other things before she got the surgery.

After all, she had put up with everything for three years, so what was the harm in waiting for a few more days?
