Mia paused for a moment after hearing Timothy's voice. Why was he still around?

She turned to look at him. "Everything's fine. It's just that there are quite a few company affairs to be handled today."

"Is there anything I can do to help?"

"No, thanks. It's getting late. Mr. Barrett, if there's nothing else, you may leave," Mia said.

Timothy grasped the meaning of her words. "I'm waiting for you to get off work," he said bluntly.

Mia raised her brows. Didn't Timothy know that she was chasing him away?

However, Timothy stood rooted to the spot, as though he did not understand what she just said.

Mia knew he was pretending.

"As you can see, a lot of things happened today. I have to work overtime and might get off work very late. You don't have to wait for me." Timothy let out a faint sigh. "I don't mind waiting for you no matter how late it will be."

Mia was at her wits' end.

She turned to Peyton and said, "Let's go."

Peyton was confused. "Where are we going? Haven't you already finished instructing me about work just now?"

Mia's expression seemed a little uneasy. "We're going to work overtime. So much has happened today, so I have to keep an eye on things."
