Meet My Protective Brothers Chapter 781

Mia's mind went blank. She never expected that she would kiss Timothy, let alone be the one to initiate it.

She swiftly averted her gaze, her ears flushing bright red. At that moment, she found herself at a loss for words.

All she wanted was to vanish into thin air.

Noticing her embarrassment, Timothy's mood lifted unexpectedly. "Are you feeling shy?"

Mia immediately became displeased. "It was completely accidental. Why would I feel shy? I just find the situation a bit awkward!"

"Given our relationship, there's no need for awkwardness."

Upon hearing Timothy's audacious remark, Mia wanted to push him away. "Hey Mr. Barrett, how about you get up first? Your current behavior might come off as a tad inappropriate, don't you think?"

Timothy didn't budge. Instead, he looked at her sternly. "You were the one who stepped on my foot, causing us to fall. Let's approach this rationally, shall we?"

"Then please get off me first!"

"My leg is numb!" Timothy retorted.

Mia doubted his leg was really numb.

Just then, the hospital room door swung open as the doctor entered. "Mr. Barrett..."

Mia turned to see the doctor at the entrance. Overcome with embarrassment, she quickly covered her face with her hands.

Timothy immediately got up and leaned against the headboard, his expression serious as he addressed the doctor, "What's the matter?"

"Mrs. Barrett's condition isn't serious; it was just a fainting spell."

Timothy remained composed, replying, "I see."

Despite his initial inclination to leave, the doctor hesitated before continuing, "By the way, Mr. Barrett, since your bone marrow donation is scheduled for tomorrow, I suggest avoiding strenuous activities, including sexual activity, in the next few days. It's not conducive to your health."

Timothy was taken aback by this direct reminder.

With her face still covered, Mia swiftly responded to the doctor's statement, explaining, "It's not what you're thinking. I was just helping him up, and we accidentally stumbled. Nothing inappropriate happened."

"Hmm, I see, but it's still important to be cautious!"

Mia felt frustrated. It seemed the doctor didn't fully believe her explanation.

Shortly after, the doctor left, leaving only the two of them in the hospital room.

Exasperated, Mia sat upright on the bed and shot a glare at Timothy, who was leaning against the headboard calmly. It seemed that men had thicker skin than women in situations like this!

Without uttering a word, Mia rose from the bed and exited the room without looking back.

Observing her embarrassed and angry expression, Timothy couldn't help but smile. Finally, he caught a glimpse of her true emotions.

Upon leaving the ward, Mia gently touched her face, noticing that the warmth had yet to dissipate entirely.

As she brushed her fingers across her lips, she vividly recalled their kiss. To her surprise, Timothy's lips didn't feel cold. Instead, they had been pleasantly warm.

Mia couldn't ignore the allure of Timothy's impressive physique; the sensation under her touch spoke volumes.

"Mommy, why is your face all red?"

At Ginger's question, Mia quickly lowered her hand. "It's probably because I hurried up the stairs just now. Oh, and Ginger, please disregard what that lady said earlier."

"Mommy, is she Daddy's mom?"

Mia nodded and replied, "Yes, according to your bloodline, Mrs. Barrett is your grandmother."

"But she doesn't seem to like me."

Children indeed had a knack for picking up on such nuances.

Mia gazed at Ginger and reassured her, "You don't need her approval! You have plenty of people who adore you!"

As usual, Ginger, with her carefree attitude, quickly shrugged off the incident.

Noticing that Ginger was unaffected by Sharon, Mia felt relieved. If Sharon's comments had caused any psychological scars on Ginger, Mia certainly wouldn't have taken it lightly.

Early the next morning, Mia was abruptly awakened by Peyton. "Ms. Mia, something has happened."
