Chapter 353
Meet My Brothers
âWhat is it,â prompted Timothy in a low voice from the other side of the line.
Mia let out a wry cough. âIâm still trying to hall a cab at college. I might be late for more than an hour.
Could you wait for me, please?â
Timothy checked his wristwatch, a smile adorned his lips. But he used an impatient voice
nevertheless, âMia Bowen, how could you be late for our appointment? Are you doing this on
purpose?â
âIt is definitely not on purpose. Not a pushâandâpull trick either. Iâm serious about the divorce. I swear!â
The smile on his face vanished when he heard that. She seriously knew what to say at the bad
timing.
He coldly said, âYou said to meet up at 9:00 am, and you want me to wait for you in the end? Do
you know how busy I am every day, Mia Bowen? Do you know how much I earn per hour? Can you
I
pay me?â
His counter caught her off guard. âHow much? I can transfer you the money.â
âIâm not going to wait. Be on time.â He hung up the call.
Anxious, Mia called Timothy again but he didnât pick it up.
Left with no choice, she texted him, âI got a cab. Iâm already on my way there. Just wait me for a
little. I wonât take up much of your time.â
Her message made his mood better.
There was no way he would wait for her.
At that moment, Heath came over with a document cautiously. âMr. Barrett, your flight will take off
in less than an hour. If we donât leave right now, we wonât be able to arrive on time.â
âLetâs go.â Timothy nodded. His steps were light and steady as she walked out of the office.
Judging from the smile on his face, he seemed to be in a good mood.
Heath had a vague guess about the situation.
Ever since Mia got out of the car yesterday. Timothy had been in a bad mood. Heath actually
expected a havoc day. After all, it was the day Timothy was going to divorce with Mia.

Yet. Timothy had been burying himself in work. Who wouldâve known that he wouldnât go to the
courthouse at all?
Heath overheard the phone call that Mia was going to be late.
But Timothy didnât tell her that he himself wouldnât go to the courthouse at all.
It was as it a wollt playing games with an innocent sheep.
On the other hand, Mia headed to the courthouse by cab. When she arrived, there was no sight of
Timothy at all.
She went to the car park, but the result was the sameâhis car wasnât there.
Where was he?
Mia pulled her phone out to reach out to him.
âThe number youâre calling is unreachable. Please try laterâ¦â His phone was turned off.
Mia w
was dumbfounded, wondering if he still remembered it was the day they would proceed with
the divorce.
She had explained her stance over the phone. How could he possibly just leave?
In fact, the person who wished to get rid of her and divorce her was Timothy all along.
He already waited for three years, but he couldnât wait for an hour. Mia couldnât understand him at
all
She stayed for another half an hour outside the courthouse like a fool. She couldnât reach him through
the phone either.
Angry, she texted him, âTimothy Barrett, whatâs the meaning of this? Donât you want a divorce?
Perhaps you have felt guilty recently and fallen for me? Thatâs why you donât want the divorce to
happen?â
She bombarded him with questions. The message alone might be enough to annoy someone as
prideful as him.
That way, he would explain the reason for standing her up.
