Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen ( Mia Bowen )
M Chapter 573

Chapter 573 

After finishing her dessert, Mia took a sip of water. 

She couldn’t help but notice Timothy staring at her, his silence adding to the intensity of the moment. 

His narrow, elongated eyes bore into her, his handsome features sharply defined in the light. 

Mia felt increasingly uneasy under his intense stare. She lowered her gaze and curtly said, “It’s getting 

late, Mr. Barrett. Please leave.” 

With that, she dismissed him without so much as a glance. 

Given their divorced status, Mia felt no obligation to extend any courtesy toward him. 

Timothy eventually rose from the sofa, his figure illuminated by the light, casting a long shadow in the 

room. 

In the already confined space, his towering stature seemed to make it even more cramped, obscuring the 

light around Mia. 

His imposing figure loomed above her, and his expression was complex. 

Mia’s breath caught in her throat. She had never seen Timothy wear such an expression before. 

especially not directed at her. 

Taking a deep breath, she walked toward the entrance and swung the door open without a word, inviting 

him to leave. 

Casting a glance in her direction, Timothy proceeded to walk toward her. 

Mia had initially planned to step aside and allow him to pass, but he positioned himself squarely in her path. The narrow entrance barely allowed space for two people. 

She glanced up at him, somewhat puzzled by his demeanor. 

Just as Mia was about to yield, Timothy finally spoke up, “Please, take your exams seriously.” 

“Huh?” 

Mia hadn’t anticipated such words from him after the prolonged silence. She muttered in response, “I 

don’t need you to remind me. I’ll work hard regardless.” 

She watched as Timothy turned and walked away, closing the door behind him.

As Mia returned to the sofa, she felt a mixture of emotions upon noticing the pastry in her pocket. 

“Mia, has Mr. Barrett left?” Patricia asked as she peeked out from the door. 

Mia nodded. “Yes, he’s gone.” 

“What did he want? I was taken aback when I saw him at the door just now. He wasn’t causing trouble. 

was he?” 

“No, he stopped by to deliver some pastries that Grandma Laura had made.” 

Mia retrieved the pastries from her pocket and handed one to Patricia. Despite her complicated relationship with Timothy, Laura had always shown kindness to her. 

Before Mia found her family, Laura had been one of the kindest people to her, aside from Patricia. 

“Mia, isn’t Mrs. Barrett Senior’s banquet planned for next weekend?” Patricia inquired. 

“Yes, that’s correct.” 

Mia had discussed with Laura the possibility of postponing the banquet until after Mia’s exams, particularly if Laura intended to invite all of Mia’s brothers to the celebration. 

Laura had no objections and decided to schedule it for the weekend following Mia’s exams. 

“Mia, Grandma Laura has indeed been very kind to you, but now that you’ve reunited with your family and your living situation has improved, you should have more confidence. 

“The Barretts wouldn’t dare to mistreat you like they did before. Are you still considering returning?” 

“Aunt Patricia, why do you ask?” 

Mia was caught off guard by Patricia’s suggestion that she might want to return to her position as the young lady of the Barrett family. Unfortunately, that role didn’t live up to its reputation. 

“Mia, I remember you initially married into the Barrett family because you had feelings for Mr. Barrett. You were quite headstrong; how could you just forget about it? 

“Back then, I supported your decision to divorce because I was worried you were being mistreated by the Barretts. But now, who would dare to treat you badly?” 

Mia couldn’t help but feel exasperated. “Aunt Patricia, we’re already divorced.” 

“But Mrs. Barrett Senior still seems to have a soft spot for you, and your family’s circumstances have 

improved. 

“If you still have feelings for Mr. Barrett, you might want to contemplate it. Besides, Mr. Barrett seemed less distant toward you during his recent visit.”
