Timothy glanced at the candy wrapper Mia held, making a mental note of the brand of the candy in his mind.
As they walked toward the ward together, Timothy spoke in a hushed tone, "Does Ginger know about her condition?"
"No, I haven't told her yet. She probably thinks it's just a mild flu," Mia replied, glancing at Timothy. "Please don't mention it to her later. Ginger simply believes she's anemic and needs your blood donation."
Timothy responded, "Okay."
Following their conversation, they proceeded together into the ward to visit Ginger.
Near the emergency exit, Luna lurked in the shadows. As she observed Timothy's kind gestures toward Mia and Ginger, jealousy consumed her. Why should someone like Mia merit such treatment from Timothy?
Frustrated, Luna resorted to pinching herself in an effort to regain control over her emotions. However, as she pondered Ginger's leukemia condition, she found herself unable to stifle a chuckle.
In her mind, it seemed like a fitting consequence.
Eventually, Luna pulled out her phone and dialed a number. "Mrs. Barrett, it's Luna. Can we meet? There's something crucial I need to discuss with you face-to-face!"
Luna was determined to prevent Timothy from donating his bone marrow to Ginger.
After all, Sharon would never approve of a divorced woman with a child marrying into the Barrett family!
…
In the hospital ward, Ginger played until she grew weary, eventually drifting off into sleep.
As Mia looked at Timothy, her gaze held a mixture of emotions. "Thank you for playing with her so patiently. Ginger hasn't had a father figure around since she was young, so she looks up to you a lot."
Watching Timothy's tender interaction with Ginger, Mia felt a curious emotion stirring in her heart.
Was this the power of familial bonds?
After a brief moment of silence, Mia replied, "Actually, I accidentally found out from my brothers that Ginger's father is from Bern City. However, I don't have any further details."
"It looks like you don't know your baby daddy too well, huh?"
With a poker face, Mia replied, "Who can remember the details of a one-night stand, anyway?"
As her words trailed off, she couldn't help but notice Timothy's expression darken considerably.
Clearing her throat, Mia continued, "But that was a long time ago. I was young and naive. We all have our rebellious phases, don't we?"
Timothy responded, "Give me all the details you have. Tracking down this person could take some time."
Mia's expression stiffened momentarily. This was certainly not the outcome she had anticipated.

The readers' comments on the novel: Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen
Enjoyed reading this but I agree that the last chapter seemed rushed. Maybe if the author had done a few more chapters to let us know if they remarried or not - could there be a second book in the running. Anyway we'll done....
Who's Claude in chapters 276/277? Have I missed a chapter or something?...
I've never encountered a book with over 1,000 chapters. Does the author or platform not use an editor? The writing and grammatical errors are quite frustrating....
Why does it read status ongoing? If it’s ongoing chapter 1187 isn’t the end, I’m confused...
Chapter 1187 is the end? Too soon of a ending if its the ending they just ruined the sorty for me...
