Mia''s eyes were welling up with tears.


    Timothy couldn''t understand her. "I just don''t get it. You knew the bone marrow was missing this


    morning, but why did you proceed with Ginger''s surgery so soon?"


    Only then did Mia calm down. A slip of the tongue would give the game away. She had to stay calm.


    Now that Sage was in the vacuum chamber, Timothy''s bone marrow from yesterday was the only way


    to save Sage.


    Determination recentered the focus in her eyes. She had to find that bone marrow!


    She exined, "The doctor made a mistake. They didn''t check the container when they received it."


    Timothy disapproved, “Fools. You shouldn''t have sent Ginger back to Nord City."


    Mia quipped, "If it wasn''t for your mother, none of this would have happened! It''s all because of your


    mother!”


    Heath came up to them. "Our men headed to the ce Mrs. Barrett went, but they couldn''t find her.


    ording to them, she didn''t go there at all.”

    In other words, Sharon lied.


    Timothy''s face fell. "And what are you standing here for? Get our men and look for her! If she didn''t go


    on a trip, she must be hiding somewhere. I''m sure she hasn''t left Bern City."


    Mia admonished, "Mark my words—the bone marrow you donated yesterday is the only thing that can


    save my child''s life. If she can''t give it back or if she destroyed it, she''s a murderer. And I will never


    forgive her. I don''t break promises. I will make sure she pays for it with her life!"


    At that moment, her eyes flickered with malice.


    Timothy stared at the woman before him, who seemed different from how she was four years ago. Mia


    was now Ms. Lane. She had everything, almost as much as the Barrett family had. On top of that, she


    had brothers who loved her a lot.


    Timothy knew it wasn''t a joke; it was a warning that could turn into reality.


    He responded calmly, “Like you, I''d also like to find the bone marrow so that Ginger can be well again.


    Do you think I would hurt her? I''m her father!"


    "But who would you choose between your child and your mother?"


    "I won''t let it transpire to that stage.”


    "You better keep your word." Mia turned and left the hospital.


    Time was of the essence. She had to send some men to track Sharon down.


    Timothy followed after her, concerned. "Where are you going?"


    She looked back. "Home, of course. You better pray for your men to be faster than mine. I can''t


    guarantee what will happen if I find her first."


    She got into the car and mmed the door shut.


    At that moment, she felt that Dominic was right—the Barretts were bastards. She should stay away


    from them.


    Timothy wanted to get closer and say something but was stopped by her bodyguards.


    Feeling helpless, he watched her car leave.


    He loosened his tie and undid a few buttons while trying to calm himself down.


    Never in his wildest dream had he expected things to go out of hand.


    His very own mother had dug him his grave.


    Heath couldn''t help but pity Timothy. Winning Mia''s heart back was difficult to begin with, and this


    matter had simply made it worse!


    In the car, Mia received a call from Dominic. She went silent for a moment before answering the call.


    "Dominic."
