Chapter 101
Timothy’s face remained stoic. “Do you believe that divorce is the solution?”
“Well, I intend to convince Grandma to undergo the surgery,” Mia asserted.
Timothy’s eyes narrowed as he inquired, “And how do you plan on doing that?”
Mia hesitated momentarily before replying. “That’s none of your concern.”
At that moment, the hospital room’s door swung open, revealing Martha. “Ms. Mia, Mrs. Barrett Senior wishes to have a conversation with both you and Mr. Barrett. She has matters to discuss.”
Standing close by, Maya interjected with a hopeful smile, “I’ve also come to visit Mrs. Barrett Senior.”
“I regret to inform you that Mrs. Barrett Senior has no intention of seeing you,” Martha responded awkwardly.
A rigid expression settled on Maya’s face. She watched with resentment as Timothy entered the room with Mia.
Mia felt the weight of Maya’s intense gaze on her as she entered the hospital room. Nonetheless, she couldn’t let herself be distracted by it.
She held Laura’s cold hands gently. “Grandma, are you feeling any better today?” she asked, her voice tinged with concern.
In an attempt to lighten the heavy atmosphere, Laura replied with humor, “I might be under the weather, but I’m far from knocking on death’s door,” though her pale complexion hinted at her frail condition.
Timothy, however, responded with seriousness. “Grandma, I’ve arranged for your surgery next week.”
With unyielding resolve, Laura shot back, “I’ve made myself clear. I won’t proceed with the surgery!

Growing frustrated, Timothy snapped, “Are you attempting to use your health as leverage against me, Grandma?”
Unfazed, Laura retorted, “If that’s your interpretation, then so be it.”
Mia felt a profound sense of guilt as she observed Laura’s frailty.
She realized that Laura’s refusal for surgery stemmed from concern for her welfare.
Laura harbored a genuine fear–if the surgery didn’t yield positive results and Mia couldn’t recover, she wouldn’t be there to protect her in the challenges ahead.
Yet, Mia had decided to end her marriage with Timothy, directly conflicting with Laura’s wishes.
Having grown up an orphan, Mia faced hardships from her foster parents, finding solace only in the kindness
Patricia had shown her.

Over the last three years, Laura had warmly welcomed Mia into her life, treating her as a cherished granddaughter. Mia grappled with a deep concern for Laura’s deteriorating health.
Truly, the surgery couldn’t be delayed any longer.
In a decisive moment, Mia lightly placed Laura’s hand onto her belly, declaring, “Grandma, I’m going to have a baby.”
A heavy silence enveloped the hospital room.
Timothy stared at Mia in disbelief, his eyes fixated on her belly, struggling to comprehend her revelation–was Mia really expecting?
Meanwhile, on the hospital bed, Laura mirrored Timothy’s astonishment, her face a canvas of incredulity. “Is it
true?”
“Yes, Grandma, it’s true,” Mia confirmed, a gentle smile gracing her face. “We’re still in the early phases, we
