Peyton replied: "I don't think so."
Upon hearing that Timothy's injuries weren't life-threatening, Mia let out a sigh of relief.
As long as he didn't lose his life, it wasn't too serious of a matter.
Reflecting on Timothy's altercation, Mia couldn't suppress the hint of amusement creeping up to her.
She had advised him against leaving the plane with her, but he ignored her warning.
Now, he was facing the consequences.
The next morning, Mia headed straight to the hospital after breakfast.
She couldn't possibly miss such a golden opportunity to add insult to injury, could she? Upon entering the hospital ward, Mia spotted Timothy lying in the bed, dressed in patient attire and sporting bandages on his head and hands.
Mia cleared her throat and approached Timothy, trying to suppress her laughter. "Mr.Barrett, how are you feeling now? Have you learned your lesson?"
Timothy instinctively looked up at the sound of her voice, his expression turning somewhat awkward.
This was undoubtedly a new low for him.
Seeing Timothy with bandages around his head, Mia struggled to contain her laughter.
Timothy's expression darkened.
"Why are you laughing?"
"My apologies, Mr.Barrett. It's not often that I laugh, but sometimes the situation just gets the better of me," Mia replied, approaching Timothy with feigned innocence.
"Remember my warning yesterday? I told you not to disembark with me, but you didn't listen. Now, you're dealing with the consequences," she continued.novelbin
Timothy's complexion paled as he gritted his teeth.
"I was careless."
"Calling it careless is an understatement. We're in Nord City, not Bern City. You need to come to terms with this reality."
Timothy's resentment was palpable.
He knew that Claude had only acted tough because of the backup he had yesterday.
Speaking with a cold tone, Timothy vowed, "It's because I didn't have a group of bodyguards with me at the time.
But once I'm out of this hospital bed and back on my feet, I won't make the same mistake again."
"Timothy, I suggest you maintain a low profile and leave Nord City promptly," Mia cautioned.
However, Timothy shifted the conversation, asking, "My bone marrow sample arrived yesterday. When will Ginger's treatment start? I'd like to stay until it's finished."
Acknowledging Sage's successful treatment, Mia replied calmly, "Her treatment has already commenced. Don't worry, I'm optimistic it will progress smoothly."
Mia refrained from mentioning that the treatment had already concluded.
After all, Timothy remained unaware that Ginger wasn't the recipient of the treatment.
Mia gazed at him and spoke firmly, "I came here simply to assure you that Ginger's treatment will be successful. It's best for you to leave Nord City as soon as possible. I'll head out now."
As Mia turned to leave, Timothy's voice called out from behind, "Mia, I won't leave Nord City easily.I've made it clear that I won't depart until I witness Ginger's full recovery with my own eyes."
Looking back at him, Mia retorted,
"Fortunately, it was Glaude and M Connor who came to pick me up yesterday.
If it had been Dominic instead, Timothy, do you reckon you'd still be here in the hospital to speak to me in this manner?"
"Whether I'm alive or not is my own concern," Timothy replied defiantly.
Mia was infuriated by his attitude.
"Fine, have it your way. Let's just pretend I didn't come today."
It seemed Timothy failed to recognize her gesture of kindness.
As Mia prepared to storm out of the ward, a doctor and a nurse entered abruptly.
Approaching Timothy, the nurse inquired, "Excuse me, sir, have your family members arrived yet?"
Timothy's face remained stoic as he replied, "What seems to be the issue?"
"The medical expenses for your hospitalization and surgery haven't been settled yet.
We'd like to know when your family will be able to come and make a partial payment for these costs.
Given that you're not a resident of om Nord City, the hospital policy Om mandates an advance payment for medical expenses." Mia raised an eyebrow.Was Timothy in debt for medical expenses?
