Mia woke up groggily, her gaze instinctively falling on the sleeping Ginger. She signaled to Peyton and
quietly slipped outside.
Yawning, she asked, “What’s going on?”
“Mrs. Barrett woke up this morning and insisted on jumping off the building tomit suicide!”
Suicide?
Mia’s drowsiness vanished instantly, her brows furrowing. “I knew that old woman wouldn’t give up
easily.”
“Ms. Mia, Mrs. Barrett also insists on seeing you. The doctors and nurses are all over there trying to
talk her out of it.
“You don’t need to rush over. Mrs. Barrett is likely just putting on a show, pretending to want to jump off
the building for everyone to see.”
“Take me there,” Mia instructed.
She knew she had to go see Sharon.
Despite the severe side effects Timothy endured from his injection yesterday, Timothy had not
mentioned anything about it.
Considering it a favor to him, Mia decided to confront Sharon and find out what tricks she might be up
to this time.
Following Peyton, Mia made her way to the hospital room Sharon was in. The area outside was already
swarming with guards, doctors, and nurses.
As Mia calmly entered the ward, someone announced, “Mrs. Barrett, she’s here.”
Upon hearing this, Sharon immediately burst into tears, eximing, “Don’t you dare try to stop me! If
anyone dares to take Tim’s bone marrow, I’ll jump from this hospital building!”
With a single nce, Mia saw through Sharon’s facade. She addressed her directly, “Were you looking
for me?”

“I won’t allow Tim to donate his bone marrow. If he continues to disobey me, then I’ll jump from here.
Let’s see if he chooses his mother or a mistress like you.”
Mia pulled a chair over and sat in front of Sharon. “Come on, just give it to me straight.”
“But those were my honest thoughts.”
“If that’s truly the case, you should confront Timothy directly instead of sending someone to find me!
What are your conditions? Spit it out,” Mia demanded, seeing through Sharon’s ulterior motives.
Sharon’s face immediately lit up. “I know I can’t stop Tim from donating his bone marrow, but if I really
wanted to, I could take certain measures.”
“So, what’s the deal?” Mia’s patience was running thin.
“My condition is that you must end your rtionship with Tim. You can’t be with him,” Sharon asserted.
Mia arched an eyebrow. “Is that all?”
She had expected Sharon’s condition to be more demanding.
Sharon looked confused. “W–what do
you
mean?”
“It’s nothing. I can ept that condition, but you have to promise not to meddle with the bone marrow
donation anymore,” Mia replied.
She put on a slightly uneasy and guarded expression to swiftly dispel Sharon’s earlier suspicions,
feigning reluctance to adhere to her condition.
Upon Mia’s consent, Sharon breathed a sigh of relief. “Just remember to keep your promise. I won’t
hesitate to take action against you and your daughter otherwise.”
Standing up, Mia assured her, “Don’t worry, I won’t backtrack on my word.”
Initially, Mia had nned to leave after securing Timothy’s bone marrow.
In a sense, that scenario could be likened to a breakup, couldn’t it?
As Mia left Sharon’s hospital room, Peyton spoke up, “Ms. Mia, have you ever faced such unjust
treatment before? It’s outrageous that you had to submit to the Barretts like this.”
Observing Sharon’s threats toward Mia, Peyton couldn’t contain her indignation.
Mia’s lips curved into a slight smile as she replied, “As long as the bone marrow donation proceeds
smoothly, these threats are meaningless to me.”
After all, Mia’s top priority was ensuring Sage’s smooth recovery. Therefore, a temporarypromise
didn’t faze her at all.
