Chapter 572

Why did Timothy want to disturb Mia’s mental state at such a critical moment?

Shortly afterward, Mia thought she heard the doorbell ring.

She snapped awake, unable to shake the thought that Timothy might have arrived.

Nonetheless, Mia pondered it carefully, convincing herself that she must have misheard. After all, there was no reason for Timothy to come up and find her.

Despite this, the knocking persisted.

Mia quickly opened her bedroom door, only to find Patricia heading toward the entrance. “Who’s knocking at this late hour?”

“Aunt Patricia-” Mia wanted to intervene, but it appeared to be too late.

As the door opened, Mia noticed Timothy standing outside.

He wore casual gray attire, a far cry from the serious and austere look he had in a suit during the day. This time, he emanated a more laid–back vibe.

Mia wore a slightly awkward but polite expression, taken aback by Timothy’s unexpected arrival.

Patricia’s eyes widened in disbelief at the sight of Timothy. “Mia, why why is he here?”

Standing by the entrance, Timothy politely stated, “Grandma requested me to bring her some gifts.”

“Ah, I see. Well, please come in.”
