Chapter 759

Timothy glanced at the villa outside; it was their former marital home.

Mia held her head, taking a moment to recover from the sudden, piercing headache.

Eventually, she lowered her hand and looked at the villa outside, sensing a strange familiarity.

She spoke meaningfully, “Mr. Barrett, if I’m not mistaken, this is the marital home you shared with your ex–wife, isn’t it?”

Timothy’s eyes narrowed slightly. “Yes.”

“Do you reckon anyone would be pleased to see a house where their partner’s ex once resided? Feeling uncomfortable is quite normal, wouldn’t you agree?”

Timothy fell silent, picking up on the sarcasm in her tone. He couldn’t believe how composed she was. How had he not noticed her acting skills before?

He continued, “Since we’re already here, would you care to join me inside?”

Upon hearing Timothy’s invitation, Mia abruptly turned her head to face him. Mr. Barrett, are you asking me out?”

A subtle smile graced her lips, while her eyes emitted a charm that was both mature and captivating.

Timothy met Mia’s gaze, his throat tightening slightly. “You could say that.”
