Chapter 887

Mia pretended not to notice the icy stare from Timothy. In fact, she found him annoying since the day
she recovered her memories.
If the Lane family hadn’t found her, it would’ve been tough for her to raise two children all alone.
Besides, it would’ve been easy for Timothy to win custody of her children, without her brothers’
defense.
The Lanes’ power and authority was why Timothy was willing to go as far as putting himself down to be
her bodyguard.
Mia was clearly aware of the reason behind it, hence the constant self- reminder to keep staying
rational; she kept reminding herself not to be charmed by his fake persona.
She looked at Nicholas. “I’ll be discharged from the hospital today. Eva told me to eat at home. If you
have time, fancy having a meal together at our place?”
“Sure, I have nothing to do in the afternoon anyways.”
Nicholas obviously noticed Timothy, and he was surprised by the latter’s presence.
The alarm in him rang off, as he knew what kind of relationship Timothy had with Mia.
Both men were engaged in a staring competition, irked by each other’s presence.
Timothy was alarmed as soon as he saw Nicholas. Timothy knew Nicholas very well.
The man who had an engagement with Mia.
Timothy’s mood soured after Mia invited Nicholas home for a meal. Frowning, Timothy said, “Mia, I
have something to say to you.”
“What is it?” She looked at him.
“I have to speak to you alone,” he emphasized.
Standing there, Nicholas could tell what Timothy meant, but he kept silent.
Mia refused, “You can say it here. No outsiders here anyways.”
She noticed the shift in his expression as soon as she said that. Reading his mood was the thing she
learned best in the past. Obviously, he was angry and she knew exactly why.
But she didn’t care about it anymore. His mood was none of her business.
Annoyed, he pursed his lips. “It’s inconvenient because someone else is here.”
“Nick is not an outsider.”
“But he is, to me. I want to ask something about Ginger.”
Hearing that, Nicholas suggested, “If it’s about Ginger, you can consult with me, Mr. Barrett.”
Timothy snorted. “This is none of your business though.”
“Why not? He’s the godfather,” Mia retorted.
The idea of Nicholas being Ginger’s godfather irked Timothy. “Mia Lane, how could you appoint
someone as the godfather so randomly? Have you asked for my consent?”
In addition to the engagement, Nicholas being the god-father might indicate the high possibility of
Nicholas getting together with Mia. Besides, Ginger might not dislike the idea of it either.
Timothy, who had always been prideful, was finally flustered. He had a feeling that he was going to lose
Mia again.
Mia mocked, “Who are you to interrogate me, Mr. Barrett?”
On what ground was he exerting dominance? Why must she ask for his consent?
Before she could add something else, Nicholas said, “Mia doesn’t need to ask for your consent for this,
Mr. Barrett. You’re the one who doesn’t have the right to make the call.”
“This is between Mia and I,” Timothy pointed out sternly.
