In Ginger''s eyes, Sage was very intelligent. Even adults could not understand the things he liked.


    Timothy roughly knew Sage''s area of interest from Ginger''s description. He thought his son was interested in nothing other than hacking techniques. The father-and-daughter duo chatted for a while.


    Timothy nced at the clock and said gently, "It''s gettingte. You should go to bed early. Children can''t stay upte, or you won''t grow taller."


    Ginger ended the call on her smartwatch and fell asleep in a good mood.


    Meanwhile, Timothy''s expression became worried as he looked at the call history.


    Caleb was humming a song while walking out of the bathroom. "Didn''t you talk to your daughter over the phone just now? Why are you unhappy now? Did she say anything to you? Oh! Does Mia have a new boyfriend or something?"


    "No, Ginger told me that Sage will be discharged from the hospital the day after tomorrow," Timothy said.


    "Oh, that cool little boy. But ording to our previous investigation, Sage is severely ill and might lose his life anytime. That''s why he has lived in the research institute all these years."


    Sage had been living in the hospital since birth. He barely got the chance to leave that ce.Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    When Caleb thought about this, he forgave Sage''s sarcasm and aloofness.


    Who had the heart to find fault with such a poor child?


    "I was surprised when I heard the news just now. But it must be true since Ginger said that. It proves that Nichs is much more capable than I thought. I have to admit, he saved my son''s life." Timothy''s expression was solemn and inscrutable. He could not describe his feelings now.


    Caleb sat on the couch and gave it some thought. "But Nichs is your love rival."


    Caleb knew from the start that Nichs was the man Mia was betrothed to at birth.


    Nichs had gone all out and cured Sage. He was close to Mia and was her children''s adoptive father.


    His existence was no doubt a great obstacle in Mia''s and Timothy''s rtionship in every aspect.


    "I know that, but I believe she will choose me in the end."


    Caleb remarked, "Where does your confidencee from? Why do you think Mia will surely choose you? Afterall, in terms of appearance and character, Nichs is not inferior to you.


    "He''s not a businessman, so he may not earn as much as you. But he''s a leading figure in the medical industry. You''re no match in this area. So I''d say your ratings are


    about the same.


    "But Nichs'' rating might be higher than yours. He saved Sage''s life, so the Lanes'' impression of him is better than yours."


    Timothy''s face fell after hearing the words. He red at Caleb and said, "Shut your mouth if you can''t say anything nice. Do you feel happy to belittle me? Caleb covered his mouth and made a gesture of zipping up his lips.


    "I remember your uncle bought a limited edition telescope before. Is that right?" Timothy said.


    "Yes, he bought it for his kid. But his kid lost interest in it after a while. He''s into excavators now."


    Timothy then asked, "Can you ask your uncle to sell it to me? I want it the day after tomorrow. The price and terms and conditions are negotiable."


    "But my uncle is notorious for being thrifty and exploiting others. Are you sure you want to make a deal with him? He''ll certainly seize the chance to take advantage of you," Caleb warned.


    Caleb reckoned that Timothy wanted to buy the telescope as a present for his son.


    Why was he willing to spend so much for it?


    Who was the one who said that one should not dote on children without boundaries? Where were Timothy''s boundaries now?
