Chapter 328
It wasn’t just because Mia hadn’t eaten much that morning. It was also because Maya nearly crashed into her, causing her breakfast to spill onto the ground.
Seeing Mia’s predicament, Timothy turned to Heath, who stood nearby. “Arrange for lunch to be delivered,” he ordered.
Mia quickly interjected, “Wait a moment.”
Beside her, Timothy’s expression hardened. “What’s the issue? Am I not allowed to treat you to a meal?”
Mia discreetly cleared her throat. “No, that’s not what I meant. I just lean toward lighter options, preferably something with soup and maybe a few fruits.”
A tense silence followed her request.
Straightening his collar, Timothy commented, “Mia, it appears you have a talent for making demands. Did I promise to treat you to a meal?”
Without hesitation, Mia shot back, “Given that visitors have arrived to see Grandma Laura, isn’t it

Accustomed to Mia’s sharp wit, Timothy responded calmly, “Well, you’ve been dining at the Barrett
residence for three years.”
“Yeah, but I didn’t gain weight during those three years. The fact that I’ve gained weight in such a short time after moving out–what does that suggest?”
Timothy narrowed his eyes. “Are you saying I mistreated you?”
“Hmm, whether you mistreated me or not, deep down, you know the truth!” Mia shot back.
Exasperated, Timothy exclaimed, “Despite our lack of emotional communication over the past three years, I’ve never treated you unfairly. Your living expenses and pocket money have always
been sufficient.”
Mia coldly snorted. “Sure, you’ve never mistreated me in that regard. However, your mom had always implied that I shouldn’t utilize your funds, emphasizing your hard work and cautioning me
