Timothy gazed at the yellow rose in the passenger seat, questioning his sanity for making such a gesture.
Meanwhile, Mia hailed a cab and swiftly departed from the college. Seated in the vehicle, she glanced back at the campus, her phone ringing incessantly.
She held the phone but didn't answer. She, too, was puzzled by Timothy's sudden behavior.
She couldn't help but recall what he had said last time when they were shopping for baby supplies.
Perhaps Timothy was trying to save their marriage, but Mia realized that his motivation was solely because of Laura.
Before long, she received a WhatsApp message from Timothy. "Why did you run away?"
Mia's emotions were tangled, and she decided not to reply.
Shortly after, another message arrived. "Don't forget, this is Bern City. Do you think you can escape from me?"
Enraged, Mia promptly called back, demanding, "Timothy, what is it that you want?"
"Finally, you pick up. Why did you leave like that?"
"You show up out of nowhere, causing a scene! If I hadn't left, could I have continued studying peacefully on campus for tomorrow's exams? What exactly is your motive for appearing so suddenly like this?"
Mia felt a creeping unease. Why was she being interrogated?
Timothy's voice remained composed. "Well, I was simply trying to appease you."
Appease her?
Mia was caught off guard by his comment, taking a moment to compose herself. "I don't appreciate being manipulated. And why would you even try to persuade me like that?"
As she spoke, Mia suddenly grasped Timothy's intentions.
"You don't seriously believe that a small gesture like this would persuade me to forgive you and call off our divorce, do you?" she sarcastically remarked.
Timothy paused on the opposite end of the line, carefully considering his response. "I don't extend this gesture to just anyone," he stated.
After all, he had always been discerning when it came to appeasing women.
As Patricia headed into the kitchen, Jason leaned in and whispered, "Mia, while dealing with your immigration paperwork in Bern City today, I encountered a problem."
"What's the issue?" Mia inquired.
"Since your divorce with Timothy hasn't been finalized, his signature is necessary on these documents," Jason explained.
"No, Timothy absolutely wouldn't agree to sign them, and I can't risk informing him," Mia instinctively dismissed the idea.
Given Timothy's behavior today, it seemed plausible that he would not only decline to sign the documents but also potentially attempt to interfere.
"Mia, you really should expedite the divorce proceedings with Timothy. If you're finding it challenging, I'm more than willing to assist you," Jason offered.
"Jason, I prefer to handle the divorce proceedings myself. I'll make sure everything is settled by the end of this week," Mia asserted confidently.
Jason grinned in response. "Okay. Just so you know, Dominic is scheduled to arrive in a few days. It's perfect timing for him to pick you up and take you back home."
During that time, Dominic and his brothers planned to expose Maya's true identity, revealing her as a fraudulent impostor, while also unveiling Mia as the rightful heiress of the Lane family.

The readers' comments on the novel: Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen
Enjoyed reading this but I agree that the last chapter seemed rushed. Maybe if the author had done a few more chapters to let us know if they remarried or not - could there be a second book in the running. Anyway we'll done....
Who's Claude in chapters 276/277? Have I missed a chapter or something?...
I've never encountered a book with over 1,000 chapters. Does the author or platform not use an editor? The writing and grammatical errors are quite frustrating....
Why does it read status ongoing? If it’s ongoing chapter 1187 isn’t the end, I’m confused...
Chapter 1187 is the end? Too soon of a ending if its the ending they just ruined the sorty for me...
It reads 7 chapters per day, yet today only 2...
Patiently waiting for her to realize they belong together...
