Chapter 777 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 tago. Mrs. Barrett, it must have been quite challenging for you to raise such a burden on your own all these years.” Sharon's expression froze. “Y-you... What nonsense are you talking about?” Despite living in luxury for many years, Sharon never expected anyone to dare to label. Timothy as a “burden”! Had Mia ever encountered a “burden” as wealthy as Timothy? “But | didn’t utter anything inappropriate. Didn’t you yourself mention earlier that a child without a father is considered a burden? “It seems to mirror your own circumstances quite accurately, Mrs. Barrett,” Mia countered, her smile carrying a hint of sarcasm.
“To be completely honest, Mrs. Barrett, | didn’t expect you to speak so negatively about yourself. What's troubling you so much? Why not share with us so we can support you and help you feel better?” Sharon was infuriated. “You must have misheard. | was insulting you and your daughter!” 1/3 “But isn’t Timothy also considered a burden: Sharon turned to Timothy in frustration. “Tim, did you hear that? She had the nerve to call you a burden!” Timothy's expression hardened. “Yes, someone did mentionbeing your burden when | was younger.” “Unbelievable! Whoever said that, I'll definitely have a word with them!” “It was Aunt Edith. She insinuated that | was a burden and said | might hinder you from finding a new partner,” Timothy revealed.
Sharon was filled with rage, her emotions in turmoil. She never expected to have her own words hurled back at her.
She couldn’t fathom why her older sister, Edith, would describe Timothy as a burden. What was she thinking? If Sharon were to remarry, wouldn't that involve transferring everything from the Barrett family to someone else? Mia looked at Timothy with astonishment. She hadn't anticipated him to be so candid.
It was truly surprising for him to acknowledge that he had been a burden.
Sharon felt deeply embarrassed. Addressing Mia, she said, “But Tim is the heir of the Barrett family. His status sets him apart from an ordinary child.” “But that doesn’t change the fact that you described him as a burden!” Mia retorted.
“You... You!” Sharon was too furious to cup with a response. In her with a response. In her rage, she fainted on the spot.
The medical staff quickly rushed to attend to Sharon and escorted her away.

Next to Sharon, Kaleb deliberately reminded, advise us Mr. Barrett, Mrs. Barrett nearly had a stroke after fainting yesterday. Didn't you advise us not to upset her further?”
Upon hearing this, Mia instinctively glanced at Timothy. After a moment's pause she said I hope you understand that no mother can endure her child being humiliated. My reaction was purely instinctive.”
Mia hadn't expected Sharon to be so fragile, given Sharon to be so fragile given Sharon's typically assertive demeanor. However, if Sharon were to suffer a stroke due to anger, it would undoubtedly complicate burden?” matters.
