"It might not be so simple. Mr.
Shelbert has always desired a male heir to continue his family legacy. Since he doesn't have a son, a grandson would likely suffice.
"My point is—he won't easily allow you to take Asher away, especially since legally, Asher is Luna's biological child. If you pursue custody, you have no legal standing," Mia explained.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt appeared that resolving this matter would be challenging unless Timothy voluntarily disclosed the truth about Asher's parentage. However, Mia knew this was highly improbable.
Moreover, Luna would likely escalate her actions if Timothy were to reveal his true identity, | Timothy hesitated before asking, "Is Sage okay? I heard they were in a fight." "You should be more concerned about Asher," Mia replied. "After all, Nicholas taught Sage self-defense techniques, and he ended up pinning Asher to the ground and giving him quite a beating." Timothy breathed a sigh of relief at Mia's words. He knew Sage had faced many challenges growing up. | Upon hearing about the altercation earlier, Timothy swiftly put everything else aside and hastened to Sage's side.
However, he hadn't expected Asher to be the one involved in the fight with Sage.
Mia paused before continuing, "Regarding Luna's ankle tattoo, I've conducted some investigation. I strongly suspect she was behind the attack back then.
"When I hinted to Luna that Grandma Laura would soon wake up and recover, her reaction was quite telling. She seemed unusually anxious about the prospect of Grandma Laura regaining consciousness." Timothy's expression grew serious.
"I've also initiated a reinvestigation into the maids from that time. Though we haven't uncovered concrete evidence, some witnesses recall seeing Luna sneaking upstairs to visit
Grandma." "But we lack direct evidence, don't we?" Even if Mia were to confront Luna head-on, there was no way to conclusively incriminate her.
Lowering his gaze, Timothy reassured her, "Since you've considered it thoroughly, I trust you have a plan in place. Whatever it is, I'll stand by you." Mia acknowledged his support with a nod. "Got it, those are your words, not mine. When the time is right, I'll fill you in on the details." After a brief exchange, Mia left the kindergarten. However, Timothy trailed behind her. "Where are you headed? Let me give you a lift," he
suggested.
""No, thank you. I have my own car.

"I'm confident that a partnership between Aide Castle Hotel and the Barrett Group would be mutually advantageous. With my expertise in Bern City, I can ensure the hotel's development reaches unprecedented heights." Glancing back at Timothy, Mia responded, "I'll need some time to consider this. There are other potential collaborators, so I must weigh my options carefully." "Regardless of their identity or what they bring to the table in terms of investment or management, none of them can match my capabilities,"
Timothy asserted confidently "That may not necessarily be true," Mia countered.
Stepping forward assertively, Timothy rebutted with a penetrating gaze, "But there's one aspect where they all pale in comparison to me." Turning to face him, Mia inquired, "So, spill it. What other unique qualities do you possess?" "Well, my loyalty. I'll always stand by you. The complete management control of Aide Castle Hotel in Bern City will remain firmly in your hands.
"I won't meddle in any way, and I won't betray your trust. As you're aware, betrayal is unfortunately common in the business world."
Mia lowered her gaze momentarily.
"You're not wrong," she conceded, lifting her head to meet his gaze, "But that doesn't mean I'll automatically choose you." "Regardless, it's clear that selecting me is the most advantageous option for you," Timothy insisted.
Mia narrowed her eyes, sensing there was more behind Timothy's assertion.
What did he mean by suggesting that choosing him was the optimal decision?
