Timothy stared at Mia. "Why are you so worried about me meeting our child?"

His answer angered her. "Timothy Barrett, if I hadn't taken you in as my bodyguard, you wouldn't even have the chance to come close to my child. Let alone see her. I wouldn't even let you have a video call with her. Stop crossing the line."

As soon as she finished, a man chimed in, "Mia Lane, why did you hurt my mother? You should've just come for me!"

Mia looked back only to find Lewis coming over with braces. He looked furious.

"The Bowens are literally everywhere," she thought to herself.

She sized him up. "You have the guts to confront me in person. And you're wondering why I hurt your mother? Let me talk some sense into you here. She told people to surround me in the restroom and hit me till I suffered a concussion.”

He barked, “That's because your bodyguard hit me first. She went up to you to settle the score.”

"And because your mother hit me, my brothers are going to deal with her. It's fair, don't you think so?" she retorted.

Using his family as his backer? She could do the same too.

Lewis was almost convinced by her words.

He gritted his teeth. "But my mother is still in the emergency room. The doctor even told me that her life was in danger! She had a lot of stitches because she was hit on the head.”

Mia spread her arms nonchalantly. “Why are you telling me this? I didn't do it. Look for the right person who did it."

“I know your family did it." Lewis then shifted his gaze to Timothy. “This bodyguard was the one who hit me, wasn't he? Nice to see him here. I've been looking all over for him. I'm going to teach him a lesson today. Boys, show him how it feels to be toothless!"

Mia couldn't believe her ears. “Lewis, do you really not know him?" Lewis seemed unbothered by Mia's question. “Do I have to know who a poor bodyguard is? It's time for him to remember who I am. I'm the one who'll beat him up until he loses all his teeth and becomes disabled. I will let him know what hell feels like."

“I'm impressed by your guts.” Mia clapped her hands.

He mocked, "Don't get ahead of yourself. Barrett Group is going to clinch a contract with us tomorrow. Then, we'll confront your family together and hog your companies. When that happens, you won't even have the chance to warm my bed.”

Mia's expression turned grim when she heard that.

Before she could retort, Timothy stepped forward and shielded her. With a rigid expression, he questioned, "Barrett Group is going to collaborate with your family to confront the Lane family?"

"Yup. Heard of Barrett Group? It's owned by the richest family in Bern City. Once we work together, I'll make sure to make you fall from grace. And her too!"

Timothy retorted coldly, "Who from Barrett Group wants to collaborate with you? Give me the name and position." He wondered who had the guts to do such a thing.

"Why so many questions? You're just a penniless bodyguard. This is a game between the rich. Someone poor like you wouldn't know anything about it. Stop acting as if you're the president of Barrett Group."

Mia tilted her head. "Well, he could be."
