Chapter 827 Observing the injury on Claude's face, Mia was overcome by a sense of unease.
It seemed evident that Claude and Timothy had engaged in a scuffle. Mia couldn't shake off her concern for Timothy's well-being at that moment.
Noticing Claude's injury, Eva asked, "Claude, how did you get hurt? Did you get into a fight with someone?" Mia's heart raced with anticipation as she waited for Claude's response. She, too, was curious about what had transpired during the altercation.
Claude seemed a bit uneasy, taking a moment before replying, "Oh, it's
nothing. I just accidentally bumped into something." Mia's expression shifted to one of surprise upon hearing Claude's response.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe was surprised he didn't mention Timothy. Was it because he knew Dominic was present? With Connor now in the medical facility supervising Sage's treatment, only Mia and Claude were aware that Timothy had arrived in Nord City with her.
However, it seemed improbable that this was the reason for Claude's silence about Timothy.
A chilling possibility suddenly crossed her mind. Was Timothy already dead, silenced permanently?
Noticing the look in Mia's eyes, Claude suddenly felt a bit disheartened. It appeared that Timothy was truly at odds with their family! While they waited outside, Dominic turned his attention to Mia and remarked, ""Mia, I heard someone from the Barrett family was responsible for the bone marrow incident." His tone dripped with malice.
Upon hearing this, Mia swiftly clarified the situation to Dominic.
Dominic's expression immediately turned grim. "Indeed, the Barretts can't be trusted." Claude agreed, nodding in affirmation.
"I feel the same way." Eva spoke up, advising Mia, "Now that you're back, please refrain from going
back to Bern City and stay away from the Barretts. They bring nothing but trouble." Mia obediently nodded and replied, "I understand." After all, her sole purpose in going to Bern City this time was to find Timothy and secure his bone marrow.
Ginger, who was nearby, caught snippets of the adults' conversation.
She let out a yawn, rolled over, and quietly covered her Apple watch.
Sage's treatment continued until midnight before finally coming to an end.
Nicholas stepped out and addressed them, saying, "The surgery went well, but Sage needs a few more days of observation. There's no need for you to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmgo in and see him at the moment. It's best to head back and get some rest." Upon hearing this update, the Lanes breathed a collective sigh of relief.
With tears welling up in her eyes, Mia expressed, "As long as the treatment is successful, that's what truly matters.
Thank you, Nick." "Don't thank me. You should be grateful to yourself for swiftly finding a matching bone marrow," Nicholas replied.
Standing nearby, Eva chimed in, "It's late now, and since the treatment went well, let's all head back and get some rest. We can visit Sage in a couple of days once we're allowed to." Following Eva's suggestion, Mia
returned to the Lane residence, The news of Sage's successful surgery filled her with joy. However, after finishing her evening routine, she found herself too energized to sleep.
Perhaps it was because she had dozed off excessively during the plane ride.
Just then, Mia received a WhatsApp message from Peyton: "Mr. Barrett and Mr. Claude had a one-on-one fight at the airport, and it looks like Mr. Claude lost." Mia hadn't anticipated that Claude and Timothy would end up ina physical altercation.
It made sense now why Claude didn't mention anything when Eva inquired about his injury; he must have been embarrassed about the loss.
Mia quickly replied to Peyton's message: "Where is Timothy now?" "He's at the hospital." "Why is he at the hospital? Didn't he win the fight?" "After Mr. Claude lost, he ordered his bodyguards to beat up Mr. Barrett, which led to Mr. Barrett being hospitalized. I've heard his injuries are quite severe." "Do you think his injuries could be life-threatening?" Mia asked.
