Chapter 283

Mia raised her head to see Timothy standing not far from them. His eyes held a dark glint.

Her breathing hitched.

What was Timothy doing here? This was such bad timing.

If Connor saw Timothy, things would go out of control.

An idea crossed her mind. “Connor, I almost forgot to ask you something. How is Mrs. Barrett Senior doing? Why are you the one examining her today?”
