After contemplating for a moment, Timothy turned to Heath and instructed, "Arrange for someone to escort Luna back, and ensure she doesn't return to the hospital.""Understood, sir," Heath acknowledged before leaving the room.Meanwhile, Luna exited the ward and promptly dialed Sharon's number. This was the opportunity she had been waiting for."Ms. Maynard!"Startled, Luna turned to find Heath beside her. "What... What's going on?""Mr. Barrett has asked for a driver to take you back," Heath explained.A faint smile crossed Luna's face. It seemed that Timothy still had some concern for her.Putting her phone away, Luna stepped into the elevator and pressed the button for the ground floor.She couldn't wait to brag to Monalize about what had just happened.However, when the elevator doors opened, Heath intercepted her. "Ms. Maynard, Mr. Barrett has instructed that you return home immediately.""But I'm just going to see a friend," Luna protested."I'm sorry, but you can't. P

Mia couldn't care less about Sharon's attempts to complicate matters for her, but when it came to Ginger, that was utterly unacceptable.Sharon sneered, "Who do you think you are? Just because your family has some money, do you think you can marry Tim, given your baggage? Let me make it clear, that's not going to happen!""Who said I have any interest in marrying your son? Don't flatter yourself."Mia stepped closer, her tone stern, "Honestly, I'm only getting close to him to manipulate his emotions, and while I'm at it, I'll use him to save my daughter by taking his bone marrow. Once I'm done, I'll discard him like trash.""You... You despicable woman! It's no surprise you've turned out like this. You're nothing but trouble!"Mia's gaze turned cold, her expression distant. "Is it because you're haunted by guilt? Do you ever have nightmares of the dead returning to haunt you in the night?"Sharon trembled with anger. "What nonsense are you spouting? Who do you think you are?""T

Upon hearing Timothy's words, Luna's face drained of color. "Tim, Asher can't be separated from me!""Fine, take Asher and leave. Don't ever return to the Barrett family. I'll provide you with enough money to live comfortably for the rest of your lives. That's it," Timothy's voice was firm, showing no willingness to negotiate.Luna was frantic. "Tim, please reconsider. This is my fault. I shouldn't have meddled. I will apologize to Ms. Monalize and even beg for her forgiveness on my knees. Please, don't make us leave."Luna felt torn about taking Asher away.Leaving the Barrett family would mean losing her status, and having gained nothing in the end.Given the considerable effort and time she invested in becoming a part of the Barrett family, why would she agree to leave with Asher?She couldn't understand how Timothy could be so harsh as to kick her and Asher out of the Barrett family over a mere stand-in."It's too late. I've offered you numerous opportunities, all of which y

Upon hearing Ginger's words, Mia's expression shifted abruptly.She instinctively glanced toward Timothy, who wore a similarly startled expression, his gaze complicated as he looked at her.Mia was suddenly washed over by a pang of guilt.The next moment, Sharon spoke disdainfully, "Huh, it seems that nowadays anyone can just casually claim someone else as their father. What a lack of manners!"Shielding Ginger's ears, Mia escorted her to the ward's entrance and passed her over to Peyton. Mustering a smile, Mia remarked, "Ginger, why don't you go back first? Mommy will join you later."Upon seeing Mia's expression, Ginger instinctively pulled back, her neck tensing. Whenever Mia wore that smile, it meant that trouble was on the horizon for someone.After her words, Mia closed the door of the hospital room, the smile disappearing from her face instantly.Turning around, Mia regarded Sharon with a cold gaze. "I've heard that Mr. Barrett's father passed away a long time ago. Mrs. B

Panic flashed across Mia's face as her eyes darted toward the door, only to find Caleb standing there with a nosy expression. "Sorry for barging in," he spoke up.Mia figured that Caleb must have misunderstood the situation.Timothy's demeanor turned cold. "Get lost!""Fine then!"Caleb swiftly closed the door behind him and explained himself outside the restroom, "Please don't get the wrong idea, guys. I don't have any weird fetishes!"I heard a noise from the restroom and thought Tim might have fallen, so I pushed the door to check. Oh, wait, I just remembered that I left my clothes drying outside at home. I'll head back now."With that, Caleb left quickly. He certainly didn't want to be the target of Timothy's piercing stare.The restroom remained uncomfortably silent, as a blend of awkwardness and embarrassment hung in the air.Mia couldn't bear it any longer. She pushed past Timothy and hurried out of the restroom, feeling deeply embarrassed by what had just happened.Not
