Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen novel Chapter 129

Chapter 129 

Upon spotting Connor, Maya dashed toward him, her face lit up with surprise and joy. “Connor, is that really you? I almost thought I was imagining things.” 

Connor furrowed his brow subtly and instinctively moved away from the infusion room, aiming to avoid being 

seen by Mia. 

Honestly, he now felt a twinge of regret. Why did he ever agree with Dominic to bring Maya home as a 

replacement sister? 

Now, each time he encountered his biological sister, Mia, a pang of guilt washed over him. 

Taking another look at Maya, Connor recognized the absence of a profound emotional bond between them. 

Given that Maya typically resided with Laura and seldom interacted with him and his brothers, their sibling 

connection lacked depth. 

Yet, from a young age, Maya consistently gravitated toward them, often displaying overt efforts to gain their 

approval. 

This lingering dynamic was also a reason for Connor’s lukewarm feelings toward Maya. 

With a strained smile, Maya questioned, “Connor, why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?” 

“Not particularly. Anyway, why were you looking for me?” 

“Connor, I’ve been trying to reach you earlier with no luck. You didn’t answer calls or respond to my WhatsApp messages. Seeing you here in Bern City, do you know how thrilled I am?” 

With Connor in Bern City, Maya felt a surge of optimism. 

Could his presence there mean that she was close to gaining his consent for Laura’s surgery? 

Maintaining his stoic expression, Connor replied, “Work has been keeping me occupied.” 

“Connor, I get why you kept your presence in Bern City a secret. But I genuinely care for Timothy. 

“If you help with his grandmother’s surgery, he’ll agree to marry me. You know I’ve rarely asked you for anything. Can’t you help me just this once?” 

Maya pleaded with a puppy–dog eyes. Her hunched stance made her look pitiful. 

At the mere mention of Timothy’s name, Connor’s expression hardened. “No way!” 

If Maya were to marry Timothy, wouldn’t that mean regular interactions between the Barrett and Lane families? Furthermore, what exactly was so appealing about Timothy anyway? 

Maya’s expression soured slightly. “Connor, why not? The Barrett family’s prominence in Bern City is undeniable, and Timothy is incredibly capable. He’d be a suitable match.”

“He’s been through a marriage.” 

“But I’m okay with that.” 

“I’m not.” 

With a stern tone, Connor asserted, “Maya, I’ll say it once more: I won’t perform the surgery, nor will I support your union with Timothy. I’m doing this for your well–being.” 

Without another word, he turned and walked away, leaving Maya standing by herself, her face etched with discontent.
