Mia felt a rush of relief flood through her as she finally confessed the truth.
Keeping this secret had been a heavy burden, and she longed for the day when Sage could come out into the public without having to hide anymore.
Timothy was stunned by the revelation. "Two children? A boy and a girl?"
A whirlwind of emotions swept through him. He never imagined she was pregnant with twins.
The idea of having his own children seemed like a distant dream. But now, not only did they exist, there were two of them.
Mia pushed Timothy away and retorted, "Yes, they're twins. But what gives you the right to ask about my other child now? Do you even know how hard it was for me to bring them into this world?
"When I fell at the Barrett villa, I nearly lost both of them due to a miscarriage. The doctors had given up hope. They said my children's chances of survival were almost nonexistent. Where were you then?"
He froze upon hearing that and said bitterly, "I'm sorry I wasn't there for you."
She countered, "Your apology won't change anything. If saying sorry solved everything, why would we even need the police?
"Both children were born prematurely. One struggled to breathe, while the other wasn't breathing at all.
"The doctors battled tirelessly to save him, but he was left with severe complications. They cautioned that even if he survived, he might face mental disabilities. Despite all the odds, I chose to keep him."
She glared at Timothy and continued, "Do you even know how hard I fought to keep him alive? What gives you the right to ask about him?"
He staggered backward and felt a sudden void in his chest. Since reuniting with her, his heart had been on edge.
Timothy had been oblivious to Mia's struggles over the years. It wasn't until now that he realized his ignorance, after hearing her speak of the challenges of childbirth.
He stood there awkwardly and looked at Mia, "I'm sorry. If I could, I'd spend the rest of my life trying to make it up to your children."
"No need, Mr. Barrett. Our relationship ended the day we divorced four years ago. My children and I have moved on," Mia replied.
She was ready to leave when he stubbornly grabbed her wrist.
Mia turned back angrily and met Timothy's cautious gaze. She had never seen him look so petty before.

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...
