Chapter 722
Meet My Brothers
Timothy glanced at the candy wrapper Mia held, making a mental note of the brand of the candy in his
mind.
As they walked toward the ward together, Timothy spoke in a hushed tone, Does Ginger know about
her condition?â
âNo, I havenât told her yet. She probably thinks itâs just a mild flu,â Mia replied, glancing at Timothy.
âPlease donât mention it to her later. Ginger simply believes sheâs anemic and needs your blood
donation.â
Timothy responded, âOkay.â
Following their conversation, they proceeded together into the ward to visit Ginger.
Near the emergency exit, Luna lurked in the shadows. As she observed Timothyâs kind gestures toward
Mia and Ginger, jealousy consumed her. Why should someone like Mia merit such treatment from
Timothy?
Frustrated, Luna resorted to pinching herself in an effort to regain control over her emotions. However,
as she pondered Gingerâs leukemia condition,
she found herself unable to stifle a chuckle.
In her mind, it seemed like a fitting consequence.
Eventually, Luna pulled out her phone and dialed a number. âMrs. Barrett, itâs Luna. Can we meet?
Thereâs something crucial I need to discuss with you faceâtoâface!â
Luna was determined to prevent Timothy from donating his bone marrow
to Ginger.
After all, Sharon would never approve of a divorced woman with a child marrying into the Barrett family!
In the hospital ward, Ginger played until she grew weary, eventually drifting off into sleep.
As Mia looked at Timothy, her gaze held a mixture of emotions. âThank you for playing with her so
patiently. Ginger hasnât had a father figure around since she was young, so she looks up to you a lot.â
Watching Timothyâs tender Interaction with Ginger, Mia felt a curious emotion stirring in her heart.
Was this the power of familial bonds?
Timothyâs glance briefly swept over the sleeping Ginger before settling on Mia. âYou mentioned earlier
that you initially thought Caleb was Gingerâs father, right?â
âYes, thatâs correct,â Mia replied in surprise, sneaking a glance at him. Was Timothy onto something?
Timothy followed up, âSo if Caleb isnât the person youâre searching for, does that mean the individual
youâre looking for is from Bern City?â
Mia nodded. âI think so.
Curious, Timothy pressed on, âWhat made you initially believe that Caleb was Gingerâs father?â
Mia sensed the conversation taking an unforeseen turn. She paused before responding, âMr. Barrett,
may I ask why youâre inquiring about these matters?â
âWell, if Gingerâs father is from Bern City, I can assist you in locating him. After all, I have a knack for
finding anyone in this city.
âThe nurse mentioned that Gingerâs biological father has a very high compatibility rate. Given Gingerâs
condition, itâs crucial for her biological father to come forward.â
Upon hearing Timothyâs explanation, Miaâs tense demeanor eased slightly.
She had worried that he had discovered something significant.
After a brief moment of silence, Mia replied, âActually, I accidentally found out from my brothers that
Gingerâs father is from Bern City. However, I donât have any further details.â
âIt looks like you donât know your baby daddy too well, huh?â
With a poker face, Mia replied, âWho can remember the detalls of a one- night stand, anyway?â
As her words trailed off, she couldnât help but notice Timothyâs expression.
darken considerably.
Clearing her throat, Mia continued, âBut that was a long time ago. I was young and naive. We all have
our rebellious phases, donât we?â
Timothy responded, âGive me all the details you have. Tracking down this person could take some
time.â
Miaâs expression stiffened momentarily. This was certainly not the outcome she had anticipated.
