Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen novel Chapter 286

Chapter 286 

Connor nodded. “I’m not the only person involved in this surgery. I hope you guys can cooperate with me.” 

The casual conversation lasted a few moments before the crowd dispersed from the meeting 

room. 

Connor was planning to leave when Timothy’s steely voice resounded from behind. “Dr. Lane, wait up.” 

Connor pursed his lips at that. He turned around begrudgingly and looked at Timothy coldly.” Anything? 

Timothy marched a few steps forward. It was a face–to–face confrontation where no one intended to back off. 

A moment later, Timothy broke the silence. “Dr. Lane, I’m grateful that you’re willing to perform the surgery for my grandmother. But I hope you can keep a safe distance from Mia. She’s still my 

wife.” 

“She’s your wife? How shameless of you. The divorce procedure will take place after the surgery, right?” 

Timothy narrowed his eyes. “I didn’t say that before.” 

“Are you going to go against your word, Timothy Barrett?” Connor grabbed Timothy by the collar with a cold expression. “If there isn’t a surgery the day after tomorrow, I would’ve punched you in the face right now!” 

As a doctor, he should take care of his hands all the time, especially when he has a complicated surgery to perform two days later. 

Nothing should happen to his hands. That was why he held himself back instead of going berserk when he saw Timothy. 

This bastard regretted the decision to divorce! 

Timothy stayed at his place. “Same here. I’ve put up with you for a long time.” 

“Well, well. Let’s have a proper fight after the surgery. The one who loses has to leave!” 

Mia happened to arrive outside the meeting room at that time, witnessing the dispute going on. 

She barged into the room. “Stop it right now!”

Mia separated the men by standing between them. “Be nice. Just calm down.” 

Connor primped his clothes. “I’ve said whatever I have to say. Let’s go, Mia.” 

“Really?” She shot him a dubious look. 

It seemed like she had come in time. Things didn’t get physical. 

Wordlessly, Connor held her hand and pulled her out of the meeting room. 

Mia went along with him and cast a backward glance at Timothy, who stayed riveted at the same 

spot. 

His eyes seemed to be carrying emotions she couldn’t read. 

A pang of unknown emotions hit her and she quickly withdrew her gaze. 

She must be seeing things. 

Why would he wear that kind of expression? 

Timothy remained standing at the same place while watching them leave, his eyes fixated upon 

their holding hands. 

His expression was gloomy. 

Once they vanished out of his sight, he loosened his necktie and looked at Heath. “Say, do you think that Mia has a bad judgment of character? Out of all people, it’s Maya’s brother she likes.” 

“I think she still cares for you. How about winning her back, Mr. Barrett?” Heath tested the water. Timothy’s hand paused and his expression became unnatural, “What for? Are you crazy?”

Timothy, whose pride took a hit, explained with a stiff expression. “I’m worried that Mia’s being scammed. Grandma will get worried too. I’m not acting this way solely because of Mia.” 

Heath was speechless. 

Timothy had the inclination to say things he didn’t mean to women sometimes. 

He had been acting out of character ever since Mia accepted his divorce proposal without any fuss. 

Mia followed Connor out of the private hospital. 

Sitting in the passenger seat, she sneaked a peek at him. “Connor, did the meeting go well?” 

“Yes. The surgery is scheduled to happen in three days.” 

The mention of the schedule recentered her, her expression solemn. “Connor, the surgery has to be successful. Mrs. Barrett Senior is important to me.” 

“Don’t worry. I’ll do my best.” Determination flashed in his eyes. 

For Mia, who was attached to Laura, he would do his best to cure Laura. 

That way, nothing about the Barrett family would hold Mia back. 

A grin played on her lips. “Now I’m at peace of mind with your promise.” 

“Come live in Nord City with us, Mia. Start a new life here with your baby. Stay far away from the Barretts.” 

“Sure, but now’s not the time.” 

Connor asked dubiously, “Is something holding you back?” 

She shook her head. “I want to complete my credit hours at college. Once Mrs. Barrett Senior recovers, I’ll try to persuade Aunt Patricia about it. Maybe after a few months, when my belly’s too big, I’ll come with you guys.” 

Calculations formed in his head. It was only a few months. He could wait that long. 

After the duo arrived at the hospital, Mia headed for the prenatal checkup right away. 

During the B–ultrasound, the doctor was surprised. “Congratulations! I can hear two heartbeats. You’re having twins.”

Mia looked at the monitor in disbelief. “Really?” 

“Yes.” 

Grinning happily, she left the room with the report. 

Connor walked up to her. “How was it?” 

“The doctor said I’m having twins and told me to get my blood drawn for a checkup.” She couldn’t 

stop smiling.
