Timothy entered the bedroom, gently placing Mia on the bed before kneeling beside her to remove her high heels.
Upon noticing the blisters on her feet, he proceeded to massage them with care.
Once he finished, Timothy stood up and calmly instructed Peyton and Gertrude, "Please bring some hangover remedy."
Gertrude nodded promptly. "Of course, I'll prepare it right away."
Peyton stood in place, his expression betraying a hint of discomfort. "Mr. Barrett, Gertrude is here to attend to Ms. Mia. You can leave now."
"It's alright, I'll stay. You can go."
Upon hearing this, Peyton felt a lump form in his throat.
Timothy's words exuded confidence, seemingly unconcerned about any potential wrongdoing on his part.
Given Timothy's gender, it was inappropriate for him to offer such intimate, personal care to Mia.
Peyton was also mindful of the dynamic between them; navigating the present circumstances was undoubtedly challenging.
Recognizing the possibility of Timothy becoming the future master of the house, Peyton realized he couldn't afford to offend him.
Nonetheless, Peyton remained committed to his professional ethics as Mia's assistant.
Clearing his throat, he spoke up, "Mr. Barrett, I'll leave Ms. Mia in your care for now. But remember, your role is that of a bodyguard. It's important not to overstep your boundaries."
Timothy's eyebrows raised slightly as he caught the implication in Peyton's words. "I won't do anything to her for now," he replied.
Upon hearing Timothy's reassurance, Peyton finally felt comfortable enough to leave the bedroom.
However, a lingering sense of unease persisted; he couldn't shake the feeling that something was off about Timothy's words.
The emphasis Timothy placed on "now" left Peyton pondering his intentions for the future.
It seemed that Timothy was indeed a wolf in sheep's clothing.
Was Mia unknowingly welcoming danger into her own home?

The readers' comments on the novel: Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen
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...
