Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen novel Chapter 3

Mia clenched her fist around the pregnancy test. "If I really were pregnant, I wouldn't have agreed to the divorce."

"I suppose that's right. After all, a gold digger like you wouldn't let any opportunity to rise the ranks with a pregnancy slip. Still, even if you were pregnant, Tim wouldn't allow you to keep the baby. You're a peasant who doesn't deserve to give the Barrett family an heir, anyway," said Maya.

Mia turned to head into the walk-in closet, but Maya followed her. "Hold on. Show me that paper you took from the bedside table."

After some thought, Maya felt she couldn't rest easy until she knew what the paper said. What if Mia really were pregnant? She had to get rid of the baby.

Mia held the pregnancy test tighter. "This is my private business."

"Humph! Private business? I bet you're just trying to steal something expensive. Hand it over!" Maya stepped forward to pry Mia's fist open, even raising a hand to hit her.

Mia instinctively threw Maya over her shoulder. The latter landed on her back and wailed, "My leg hurts!"

"What the hell are you doing, Mia?"

At this moment, Timothy's cold voice rang out. Mia turned to see him walk into the room, and her heart jolted. She mumbled, "Timothy, it's not like what you think …"

The only response she received was him walking past her to sweep Maya into his arms. He happened to see the divorce agreement with Mia's name signed on the last page.

Timothy stared at it for a while longer. Had Mia signed the papers so quickly?

"Tim?"

Timothy returned to his senses and asked Maya lowly, "Are you okay?"

"My hand hurts, Tim. Is it broken? Can I continue playing the piano in the future?" Maya wept.

Timothy placed her on the bed. "I'm sure you're fine. I'll have a doctor check on you."

Then, he turned to look at Mia. "Apologize to Maya."

Maya was the heiress to the Lane family and had three older brothers who absolutely doted on her. If the Lane family were to find out about Mia laying a hand on her, they wouldn't let Mia off the hook.
