Chapter 468
Maya’s gaze took on a sinister edge as she spoke, “It seems I’ve underestimated Mla.
She’s managed to slip through the cracks!
“Everyone thought she pretended to be pregnant to deceive Mrs. Barrett Senior, but who
could have guessed Mia was truly pregnant? She’s fooled us all!”
It appeared that Mia planned to secretly give birth to Timothy’s child in Nord City and
leverage the newborn to solidify her position as Mrs. Barrett.
Indeed, that seemed to be her strategy.
Now, with the potential revelation that Mia might be the rightful heiress of the Lane family,
there seemed to be little standing in her way.
Wouldn’t Maya ultimately face a humiliating defeat?
No, that was out of the question!
A deadly resolve flashed in Maya’s eyes as she turned to Blake. “We need to eliminate Mia
and the unborn child in her womb immediately!”
Indeed, Mia had brought this upon herself!
After Maya left, Connor took a brief moment to collect his thoughts before reaching out to
Dominic.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDominic, there’s something important I need to talk to you about.”
Connor proceeded to narrate to Dominic the details of Maya’s inquiries over the phone.
In a solemn tone, Dominic replied, “It seems Maya might already be onto us, deliberately
finding a decoy
to throw us off.”
“Exactly. It’s as if Maya is intentionally obstructing Mia’s return to our family by arranging
for a decoy.
“It’s obvious Maya knew Mia’s whereabouts all along but pretended not to, leading us on a
fruitless
search for Mia.”
Connor’s voice turned cold. “Dominic, we can’t afford to let Maya remain any longer.”
“Yeah. On another note, all of Mia’s paperwork has been handled. It’s the perfect
opportunity for us to visit. We’ll confront the past, expose Maya’s deception, and ensure
she faces the repercussions she’s
due.”
“I agree.”
After ending the call, Connor’s lips twisted into a smirk. He was determined not to show
mercy to anyone
who harmed Mia.

In the days that followed, Mia remained on campus, focusing on her studies for the
upcoming exams.
Nonetheless, she couldn’t resist occasionally glancing at her phone and messaging
Timothy. “Mr. Barrett, when will you be available to complete our divorce proceedings?”
Yet, her messages appeared to dissipate without a trace, receiving no response
whatsoever.
Meanwhile, Timothy remained in his office, staring blankly at Mia’s texts on his phone.
Suddenly, he shifted his gaze to Heath and inquired, “What can I do to prevent the divorce
from being finalized?”
Heath hesitated for a moment before suggesting, “Perhaps try to coax her?”
Coax her?
Timothy furrowed his brow. He had never attempted to persuade a woman in this manner
before.
Mia had spent the entire day on campus, immersed in her studies.

head home.
As she approached the university entrance, she spotted a crowd gathered outside.
“Wow, that sports car seems really pricey, and that man is incredibly good–looking.”
“I wonder who the lucky lady is! With a guy that attractive, I’d be tempted to pursue him
myself!”
Mia felt a twinge of curiosity. Was someone perhaps declaring their love outside the study
hall?
Dana, even more enthusiastic, pulled Mia along, squeezing through the assembly. “I’ve got
to see how handsome he truly is!”
At first, Mia hesitated to join the crowd, but Dana’s persistence drew her in, eventually
landing her in the front row.
As Mia laid eyes on the man standing next to the sports car, her jaw dropped in
astonishment.
Timothy was dressed casually, appearing less formal yet still emanating an air of elegance
and refinement. He stood effortlessly, his striking and dignified features commanding
attention.
As Mia glanced over, he suddenly turned his head and locked eyes with her.
At that moment, her heart seemed to skip a beat.
