SWNOVELS Chapter 874
Turning to Peyton, Dylan inquired, "Is he Mia's ex-husband?"
Peyton maintained his composure as he replied, "I'm sorry, but I can't disclose that information. I hope you understand the importance of maintaining discretion outside of these walls. Here's the confidentiality agreement for you to sign."
Dylan eventually signed the agreement, although he was already convinced- that bodyguard was undoubtedly Mia's ex-husband!
It appeared that Timothy had become aware of Mia's newfound status as the heiress of the Lane family, which could explain his audacious attempt to make amends.
Nevertheless, Dylan was determined to keep this scoundrel away from Mia!
Meanwhile, in the private deluxe ward, Mia felt as though she had just stepped out from an alternate universe she dreamed up.
In the dream, she relived her experiences in the Barrett residence, including her marriage to Timothy and the mistreatment she endured there.
Like a flickering strobe light, fragments of memories raced through Mia's mind, swiftly passing by.
In the past, Mia had caught glimpses of these fragments in her dreams. However, they had always remained disjointed, lacking any cohesive narrative, and she hadn't felt personally affected.
This time, however, was different. She was overcome with deep distress.
Finally awakening from her slumber, Mia opened her eyes and found herself staring at the ceiling of the hospital room.
As she sat up to wipe her eyes, she noticed that tears had dampened a small patch of her pillow.
At that moment, a flood of memories from her time in the Barrett family rushed back to Mia.
Her emotions became profoundly complex at that instant. Over the past four years, she had forgotten everything about her time in the Barrett residence.
Her family had only alluded to her unhappiness there, yet she remained unaware of the details of her time there.
Now, however, everything came rushing back to her.
Mia swiftly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, her demeanor turning somber.
Thankfully, Mia emerged unscathed from the accident four years ago, and her children were also unharmed.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have hesitated to hold the Barrett family accountable.
As Mia contemplated Timothy's role as her bodyguard, a cold expression briefly crossed her face. Indeed, men could be pathetic.
In the past, when Mia had feelings for Timothy, he showed no interest in her, going as far as seeking a divorce and kicking her out.
However, everything changed after her reunion with her family.

"Just a slight headache," Mia responded as she gently touched her forehead, noticing a bump. It was undoubtedly from Connie's assault. For all those years, Mia hadn't dared to retaliate.
"Mia, please don't touch it. Your injury hasn't fully healed yet. It will take a few days for the swelling to go down. Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere else?"
Mia pulled back her hand. "No, nothing else."
