Chapter 460
Upon hearing this, Mia stared at Timothy incredulously.
Was Timothy oblivious to her attempts to make things easier for him? After all, he used to detest it
when Laura arranged for them to spend time together.
Nevertheless, now that Timothy had agreed, Mia felt compelled to go along with it.
She could only stand and say, “Grandma, I’ll come see you again next time.”
“Go ahead, don’t forget to snap some pictures of your selections. If my legs were in better condition, I’d
love to accompany you and personally pick out items for the baby.”
Timothy chimed in, “Grandma, once you’re feeling better, we’ll have many chances to do that.”
Upon hearing Timothy’s words, Mia glanced at him, a trace of doubt flickering in her eyes.
Wasn’t Timothy under the impression that the babies in her belly belonged to someone else? Why
would he utter such misleading words to Laura?

Mia couldn’t resist breaking the silence. “In the future, it’s best if you refrain from mentioning anything
about the babies in front of Grandma Laura. If she were to find out, it could deeply upset her.”
With Mia’s departure from Bern City looming, her concern grew over Laura’s ability to cope with the
situation.
Timothy’s gaze grew solemn. “If we know Grandma would be upset, then let’s refrain from telling her.”
What did he mean by “refrain from telling her“?
Staring at Timothy, Mia was momentarily stunned. “But won’t Grandma Laura discover the truth
eventually?”
“As long as neither of us reveals the truth, the real parentage of the twins in your belly will stay
undisclosed. Therefore, they will be considered descendants of the Barrett family.”
Upon hearing this, Mia’s mind was flooded with uncertainty. It seemed like Timothy was prepared to
accept the twins in Mia’s belly to safeguard Laura’s health.
However, Mia believed that prolonging the situation wasn’t the solution.
Turning to Timothy, she suggested, “Mr. Barrett, with Grandma Laura now on the path to recovery.
perhaps it’s time to move forward with the divorce proceedings at the courthouse.”
At the mention of divorce, Timothy’s demeanor stiffened as he countered, “No, Grandma hasn’t fully
recovered yet. We should wait.”

Mia’s anxiety intensified, and she tightly grasped Timothy’s arm. “But I can’t afford to wait, and neither
can the twins growing inside me.”
Timothy glanced down, meeting Mia’s gaze. “So why not proceed with having them? Am I not capable
of caring for two little ones?”
“Timothy, are you out of your mind? The babies aren’t yours, so why would you want to take
responsibility for them?”
Mia couldn’t help but feel puzzled by Timothy’s behavior.

After all, why would someone as accomplished as him tolerate his wife carrying another man’s child?
Unbeknownst to Timothy, Mia had been deceiving him all along because she wanted to expedite their
divorce proceedings.
Initially, Timothy was understandably furious. However, to Mia’s surprise, he was now willing to raise
her twins.
As Mia gripped his arm tightly, Timothy’s expression became awkward.
Nonetheless, he regained his composure and commented, “Well, I don’t have any strong feelings about
children.
“If you’re willing to stay within the Barrett family and peacefully welcome the twins into the world, I’ll
regard them as my own and as future heirs of the Barrett family.”
Mia was at a loss for what to do next, thrown off by Timothy’s sudden willingness to take care of the
twins and his refusal to finalize the divorce.
Caressing her protruding belly, she couldn’t help but ask, “And what would happen if the twins turned
out to be biologically yours?”
