Connor's surgical knife was exceptionally sharp, its edge gleaming ominously.
Nevertheless, Timothy remained motionless, almost as if he had resigned himself to whatever fate awaited him.
In that tense moment, even Jason found himself holding his breath.
With a swift motion, the knife sliced through Timothy's sleeve, drawing blood as it left a jagged tear in its wake.
Observing Timothy's lack of reaction, Connor gritted his teeth and remarked, "You're truly tempting fate, aren't you?"
What a madman!
Unfazed, Timothy glanced at the blood-stained knife, his expression devoid of emotion as he replied, "Even if you were to kill me now, my answer would remain unchanged. I won't leave."
Enraged, Connor prepared to strike again, but Jason intervened. "Connor, why don't you go check on Mia's condition? I'll handle this."
Even if they wanted to destroy Timothy, now wasn't the right moment to do so.
Upon hearing Mia's name, Connor reluctantly put away the surgical knife. With one final glare at Timothy, he warned, "Consider yourself lucky today. But don't think you'll escape next time."
After Connor left, Jason fixed a cold stare on the disheveled Timothy standing before him. "Speak up. What are your true intentions?"
"I've already told you."
"We're all sensible people here, so I trust you'll be equally astute in this matter. Mia is now the heiress of the Lane family, and Ginger is invaluable to us. You should understand that Mia is no longer the vulnerable orphan who could be intimidated by your family."
Jason's voice dripped with mockery as he reminded Timothy of his family's mistreatment of Mia in the past.
Lowering his eyes, Timothy admitted, "I understand. I just want to make things right now."
"How virtuous of you, Barrett," Jason retorted sarcastically. "But what can you possibly offer to make amends? Mia has everything she desires now. What makes you think you have anything worthwhile to contribute?
"Where were you when she suffered at the hands of your family, or when she almost died giving birth? Could you endure the suffering she went through? Obviously not."

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...
