Chapter 662

Mia’s blatant confrontation evoked more questions in Timothy. He was expecting her to feel guilty after he put it explicitly. However, her attitude was free from guilt and nervousness. She only appeared surprised.

He had faith in his observation skills when it came to reading people’s emotions. Yet, he failed to read anything from her face.

Mia sighed upon realizing that she had guessed correctly. She then leaned back in the chair, hand resting on the armrest.

A knowing smirk touched her lips, and a shift in the atmosphere hinted at a newfound confidence. “Mr. Barrett, with all due respect, your flirting skills are old–fashioned. Even soap operas have moved beyond these tired clichés. What makes you think I’d fall for it?”

Disappointment gnawed at her. She’d held onto the hope that he was different. Yet, here he was, mirroring the same tired patterns. He was no less different from the men she knew. The only “difference” was his outdated flirting techniques. She could almost laugh–how close she came to falling for them.

“Amnesiac? Me?” Mia’s voice squeaked, a mixture of disbelief and indignation. The words wouldn’t form. Speaking to Timothy felt like an insurmountable task.

She stood up. “Sorry, Mr. Barrett. I don’t think there’s any point in continuing this. My time is valuable.” Her patience had limits.
