A daring speculation took shape in Timothy's mind.

Caleb paused momentarily. "If not Ginger, who could the patient be?"

"The last sentence."

"Mia was so confident that your bone marrow would match with the patient's?" Caleb realized something as well. "Tim, are you guessing that you have another child?"

Mixed feelings began to stir in Timothy's stomach as he nodded. "Yes, a hidden child."

"But, Tim, even if Mia had given birth to another child with another man, why was she so confident that the bone marrow would be a match?"

As soon as Caleb finished, the air in the car turned chilly.

Anger clouded over Timothy's features as he glared at Caleb.

Caleb gulped. "W-What?"

Heath, who was sitting in the passenger seat, chimed in, "Maybe, Ms. Mia was pregnant with a twin back then!"

Caleb slapped his thigh upon realization. "Oh, right! Why didn't I think of that?"

"If you can't use your brain efficiently, you can donate it to those that need it," Timothy warned.

"Oh, calm down, man. You knew that she was pregnant, didn't you? And you suspected that the child belonged to another man. You even wished for her to abort the baby. Plus, you didn't know that it was a twin?"

That hit the sore spot.

Timothy loosened his tie. "I didn't notice. I wasn't in the right state of mind back then."

After all, he misunderstood Mia at that time, thinking that she was a gold-digger.

Caleb gloated over Timothy's misfortune. "Tim, if you had a chance to turn back time, would you suggest a divorce?"

Timothy growled, "If I had a chance to turn back time, I wouldn't have saved you from drowning in the sea when you were ten years old."

Caled pouted at the cruel statement.

Timothy looked at Heath. "Find out how many children Mia has and if there are other children in the Lane family."

If Mia had given birth to twins, the Lane family wouldn't have been able to cover the tracks that well.

The dauntless Caleb blurted, "What are you going to do next, Tim? If the Lanes find out that you didn't leave, they'll surely send another assassin to hunt you down. Are you sure you can stay alive until the day when the truth comes to light?"

Timothy was calm. "Heath, set up an appointment with the mayor of Nord City."

The Lane family didn't hold all the cards in Nord City.

In fact, they were on bad terms with the mayor of Nord City. They have been maintaining an ambiguous relationship as of today.

As the classic saying stated, the enemy of his enemy would be his friend.

...

Mia arrived home, but she had a bad feeling. Something bad was going to happen.

"Mia, you're home."

Her head snapped upward and she saw Dominic on the couch.

Alarmed, she asked, "Dominic, you're home earlier than usual today."

She recalled the fact that the lawyers visited the Bowen family to give them the documents.

Since the lawyers had met Timothy, that meant Dominic already found out that Timothy was in Nord City.

Otherwise, a workaholic like Dominic wouldn't have returned home from work this early.

Feeling guilty, she let out a wry cough and walked toward the couch.

His features were stiff. "Since when was Timothy in Nord City? Why didn't you tell me? You even let him be your bodyguard. You guys fooled me!"

"Hear me out, Dominic. I made him my bodyguard just to make fun of him. Jason drove his bodyguards and assistant away anyway. Timothy was all alone. He could only become a beggar in Nord City. How could I miss such an opportunity to make fun of him?"
