Timothy circled to her back to pull out the chair for her. “Please, have a seat.” “Thank you.” Mia gladly accepted the offer.

For four long years, Timothy had been tirelessly searching for Mia.
His gaze fixated on the mole beneath the corner of her eye. His hand couldn't help but reach out for it, but she dodged him.
She leaned back in the chair, her gaze cold. “Isn't that a bit premature? We haven't built that level of closeness yet, Mr. Barrett.
