"You don't know anything," Sharon said.

Mia retorted, "I might not know everything, but Timothy is innocent. Before he knew the truth, he always regarded you as his mother. Even after he found out the truth, he has never mistreated you. "Besides, when you said you wanted the Barrett family's wealth, he agreed. Tell me, who else could do what he did?"

Mia felt that Timothy might have been hurt by Sharon's words.

He seemed impressive on the outside, but his identity was a dark secret.

Therefore, his relationship with Sharon became awkward.

Sharon's eyes reddened. "But I also treat him like my biological son."

"You're also his foster mother. Now everyone related to him is dead, and you're the only one he has. What are you afraid of?"

Sharon wiped off her tears. "I'm not afraid of anything. It's just that I felt that I can't trust anyone."

"Timothy is a man of his word. However, Grandma Laura said that if you remain stubborn, making the will public is her only option," Mia said. Immediately, Sharon tore the will into pieces.

Mia's expression remained calm. "The documents in your hands are photocopies. I didn't bring the originals. Do you think I'm that stupid?" Sharon said furiously, "Mia, you did that on purpose, didn't you?"

"You can think whatever you want. You can have all the money you want, but there's no way you can have Barrett Group's shares. I've said what I needed to say, and you can weigh the consequences yourself."

After saying that, Mia left the cafe.

It was the best for Sharon to take money. If she held the shares, the Hopkins would take everything from her, leaving nothing behind at all.

It was too bad that Sharon did not understand that.

As long as Timothy was around, the Hopkins would not dare to cross the line.

After Mia handled the matter, she was about to take her children to the hospital, but she found out that Timothy had sent a driver to take them there.

She went to the hospital straight away. When she arrived, the two children were still keeping Laura company.

Mia went to the next ward first. Timothy was leaning against the bed with a laptop in front of him.

Heath walked over to her and said, "Please advise Mr. Barrett. He hasn't eaten anything since yesterday and has been working non-stop. It's like he's going to work till he drops."

Mia frowned. "Please send some food here."

The moment she walked into the ward, Timothy's hands froze for a second, but his eyes were fixed on the laptop.

Soon, Heath sent some food to the ward.

Mia looked at him. "Now, Luna has been arrested, and Grandma Laura is getting better."

"Are you leaving?" Timothy looked at her. His gaze seemed emotionless.

Mia pressed her lips together. "Why not?"

Silence descended upon the room.

"This is the proposal of the hotel collaboration. It'll be useful for you." Timothy handed a document to Mia, but she did not take it. "I didn't say I'm going to collaborate with you," she said.

"It's a market research proposal for the hotel development at Bern City. It can help you to avoid pitfalls. Take it as compensation from me."

Mia took the document from him.

"Then you should eat first so that you won't drop dead. If you're not around anymore, these

businessmen won't respect me."

She put Timothy's laptop aside and placed the dishes before him.

Just then, a female voice sounded from the laptop. "Mr. Barrett, the meeting isn't over yet."

Mia looked straight at the laptop screen. "He needs to eat now. If there's nothing urgent, please discuss it later."

"Who are you?"
