Chapter 555

Mia’s suspicious gaze irritated Timothy.

He turned to face her. “Is that how you see me?”

“Isn’t it the truth, though?”

“When have I ever acted in such a way?”

Mia slammed her hand on the leather seat. “Don’t play Innocent! Wasn’t it you who had Mr. Shaw talk to me last time, suggesting that I take an additional course in the Music School to delay my graduation?”

Timothy fell silent instantly, acknowledging that he did have that intention last time. But how could he possibly admit to it now?

Mia stared at him intently. “Why aren’t you responding? Say something.”

Timothy casually crossed his legs, resting his hand on the seat. “I suggested it to Mr. Shaw because! had noticed your talent for playing the piano beföre. But after you declined, did I ever pressure you?”

Mia turned her head away in frustration, angered by Timothy’s slickness.

The car lapsed into silence again. Timothy stole a glance at Mia, admiring her fair complexion and the dimple that formed as she pursed her lips.
