Meet My Brothers

Mia paused for a moment after hearing Timothy's voice. Why was he still around?

She turned to look at him. "Everything's fine. It's just that there are quite a few company affairs to be handled today."

"Is there anything I can do to help?"

"No, thanks. It's getting late. Mr. Barrett, if there's nothing else, you may leave," Mia said.

Timothy grasped the meaning of her words. "I'm waiting for you to get off work," he said bluntly.

Mia raised her brows. Didn't Timothy know that she was chasing him away?

However, Timothy stood rooted to the spot, as though he did not understand what she just said.

Mia knew he was pretending.

"As you can see, a lot of things happened today. I have to work overtime and might get off work very late. You don't have to wait for me." Timothy let out a faint sigh. "I don't mind waiting for you no matter how late it will be."

Mia was at her wits' end.

She turned to Peyton and said, "Let's go."

Peyton was confused. "Where are we going? Haven't you already finished instructing me about work just now?"

Mia's expression seemed a little uneasy. "We're going to work overtime. So much has happened today, so I have to keep an eye on things."

Peyton understood and nodded. "Oh... I see."

Mia glanced at her naive secretary. He was quick-witted normally, but why was he dense now?

Mia walked to the office and looked at Peyton. "Peyton, do you know that a secretary could lose his job if he doesn't have good common sense or can't read the room?"Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Peyton was aggrieved as he explained, "Ms. Lane, according to your usual work schedule, you have never worked this late. I've said nothing wrong. Could it be that I guessed right? Are you avoiding Mr. Barrett?"

Mia denied it immediately. "Are you kidding me? When did I avoid Timothy? Why would I do that?"

After saying that, Mia sat in a chair and picked up a document. But she couldn't focus on it.

When she

at the rerned around and looked

below her, she saw

Timothy standing at the center of

the banquet.

He was standing under the lights, and his silhouette looked tall and slender.

Mia turned to look at Peyton. "Please chase him out."

"Ms. Mia, I don't think I can do it," Peyton said.

He could chase anyone else out, but the man standing there was none other than Timothy Barrett.

"Should I do it myself since you can't do that? Why don't you be the boss instead?"

Peyton walked away with his head hung low.

Mia was sitting in the office alone as she watched Peyton walking toward Timothy.

After a while, Timothy turned to look in the direction of her office.

Mia quickly hid herself behind the curtain. Did Timothy notice anything?

Outside, Peyton stood in front of Timothy. "Mr. Barrett, Ms. Mia would like you to leave."

Timothy glanced at the office before asking gently, "Has she had her dinner?"

Peyton thought Timothy would be annoyed. He did not expect Timothy to ask whether Mia had had her dinner. Peyton thought briefly and replied, "I don't think she has eaten much."

"I'll send food over. Please make

ney arrangements when t

here. It's been a

for everyone."

After that, Timothy turned around and left the venue.

Peyton glanced at Timothy's back

and thought to himself, et

instruction felt the same as MS Lane's. What makes Timothy think that I would obey him?"

Peyton wondered why Timothy divorced Mia.

He was obviously still into her.

When Mia saw her secretary return to the office, her expression seemed slightly awkward. "Is he gone?"
