Timothy proceeded to give a brief exnation of how Mia’s identity was exposed.
Caleb leaned back on the sofa. “So, that’s how it went down. I told you from the start that Ginger might
be your daughter, but you didn’t believe me!
“You even called me an irresponsible scumbag. Well, who’s the real scumbag now?”
“You don’t need to bring that up,” Timothy replied sharply.
After changing into loose hospital attire, he settled onto the sofa. “She still hasn’t admitted to being Mia.
Don’t interfere too much when you visit tomorrow.”
Caleb appeared somewhat taken aback. “What’s happening? You’ve already shown her the evidence.
Why is she still refusing to admit it?”
Timothy paused before answering, “She ims she has amnesia.”
In reality, he had initially nned to expose her, but seeing Mia’s pitiful state when speaking about
Ginger, he couldn’t bring himself to do it.
“Timothy, are you really falling for TV drama clichés like amnesia?”
“I honestly struggle to believe it.”
However, Timothy’s decision not to expose Mia’s identity earlier was also to prevent upsetting her
emotionally.
Caleb sighed in response, “But that does make sense. Your rtionship with Mia was turbulent before,
and then there was the incident in your family, where Mia
almost lost her children.
“She probably still holds some resentment toward you deep down, which is why she’s refusing to admit
she’s Mia.”
Timothy was well aware of this, which was why he hadn’t called out Mia’s
amnesia ruse.
Plus, with Ginger’s illness, he found it increasingly challenging to confront the
situation.
“Tim, I suggest you act as though you’re unaware and handle this situation delicately. Let’s wait until
Ginger’s health improves before discussing it with Mia. After all, Ginger’s condition isn’t currently
stable.”
“For now, that seems like the most sensible approach.”

The thought of Ginger undergoing surgery at such a young age weighed heavily on Timothy’s
shoulders.
The following day, after apanying Ginger for breakfast, Mia spotted Caleb emerging from the
elevator with a gift in hand.
Caleb announced, “I’vee to see Ginger.”
“She’s inside.”
Mia was aware of Caleb’s close friendship with Timothy, so she wasn’t surprised to find him visiting
while Timothy was hospitalized.
Entering the hospital room, Caleb spoke up, “Ginger! Look at what I got for you.”
Ginger’s eyes sparkled with excitement, but she quickly masked her emotions, pretending to be in a
slightly bad mood. “What’s this?”
As he approached her, Caleb opened the box. “It’s one of those mystery boxes
that sold out on Xanier Indst time.‘
Ginger eximed, “Does it have hidden items too?”
“Yes, all twelve hidden items are inside.”
“Wow!” Ginger was ecstatic.
Seeing Ginger so delighted brought a smile to Caleb’s face. He had made sure to acquire the hidden
items from scalpers the previous night, knowing how much Ginger would love them,
After spending some time ying with Ginger, Caleb and Mia left the room together.
“You can rest assured about Ginger’s treatment. Tim has already coordinated
with a top–notch medical team to oversee her recovery,” Caleb assured.
Mia’s smile dimmed slightly at his words. After all, such arrangements were
unnecessary.
Nheless, she maintained herposure and replied, “I understand, Mr. Gomez. And thank you for
the lovely gift you brought for Ginger.”
“Don’t mention it. Tim’s a close friend. Besides, I’ve grown quite fond of Ginger. It almost feels like fate.
If you ever find yourself needing assistance in Bern City, please don’t hesitate to reach out.”
“I’ll keep that in mind,” Mia replied. She could sense Caleb’s genuine concern for Ginger.
Continuing the conversation, she asked, “How’s Mr. Barrett doing? I’ve heard that donating bone
marrow involves quite a few shots, and there can be some side effects too, although I suppose it varies
from person to person.”
“He’s scheduled for the procedure this afternoon. If you’re worried, why don’t you join me to check on
him?”
“That sounds like a n.”
Mia saw this as an opportunity to showcase her acting skills.
