Chapter 414

It seemed that Timothy had managed to outsmart Jason, the esteemed lawyer from Nord City.

Mia reassured Jason, saying, “Jason, this situation isn’t your fault. I never intended to ask for anything anyway. Let’s just accept it for what it is.”

Jason remained silent, grappling with the sting of defeat.

“Please, Jason, promise me you won’t approach Timothy about the property settlement. I simply want to sever ties with the Barrett family.” Mia pleaded.

After all, within Mia’s belly lay what she considered to be her most precious asset: her twins. With that in mind, nothing else seemed to matter.

As Jason looked into Mia’s imploring eyes, a sigh escaped him.

At that moment, he finally understood the meaning of Connor’s previous comment about being unable to resist Mia’s pleas.

Now, Jason too found himself incapable of refusal.

However, despite agreeing to Mia’s request, he couldn’t shake off this lingering sense of injustice.
