Chapter 980 Timothy asked softly,
"
May I know if the child is a boy ora girl?"
1 "
Does it matter?"
Mia responded.
No.
I'm just asking out of curiosity.
How is his condition now? Is there anything else I can do to help with his treatment?"
Her feelings were a blend of emotions as she conveyed, '
His current progress in physical recovery is promising.
But it's not a complete recovery.
"1
The duration of the ongoing treatments required for him to achieve full health remains uncertain."
Timothy asked anxiously,"
What's his illness? I'll gather the best medical team in Bern City right away.
I refuse to believe we can't nurse him back to health."
Okay.
Please don't say things like that.
He is receiving treatment at my family home.
One day, he will recover,"
Mia said.
I
Can I see him?"
Thinking of how Sage had reacted to Timothy earlier, Mia hesitated before saying, "
He doesn't want to see you."
Timothy struggled emotionally and asked, "
Does he really hate me?"
Mia nodded.
"I
Yes.
The children have completely different personalities.
In their eyes, you're the one who abandoned us.
So, he won't acknowledge you or like you.
Seeing you won't do anything good for his well-being."
His expression contorted as a range of emotions coursed through him.
After a moment of silence, he said somberly,
If he doesn't want to see me, I won't force myself into his life either."
It's probably best that way."
Mia turned and walked into the research institute without looking back. Timothy stood alone by the roadside and watched her retreating figure. A wave of dizziness washed over him, and he nearly lost his balance.
Heath, who had been watching from a distance, hurried over to support him.
Mr.
Barrett, are you okay?"
After all, he had watched from outside when the commotion happened at the research institute.
Timothy had rushed in alone to intervene heroically.
They had remained outside to give him the spotlight.
Leaning against the car door, Timothy gazed in the direction of the research
institute.
Mia's words echoed in his mind, and he suspected the other child must be inside.
He tumed to his secretary and instructed,"
Find out how many children are at the research institute and gather all their
information."
Despite Mia's claim that the child didn't want to see him, Timothy felt an
overwhelming urge to ensure the child's welfare.
It was then that he fully comprehended the depth of his indebtedness toward the
mother of his children.
Heath asked, "
Mr.
Barrett, why do you want to investigate the children at the research institute?"
Quit the chatter and just do as I say."
Timothy's hand trembled as he pondered how many years he had missed
witnessing his children's milestones.
As Mia entered the research institute, she recalled her argument with Timothy
and rubbed her temples.
Yet, she was relieved that he finally knew about the second child's existence.
Sage approached Mia.
I
What were you talking about with that bad guy, Mommy?"
"
Mia kneeled in front of Sage.
He knows about the bone marrow matter and has figured out your existence.
But don't worry, I didn't tell him it was you."
His face tensed.
п
Mommy, don't worry."
Then, he turned and went into his room.
He locked the door before turning on his computer.
He sent a message in the group chat.
I
Guys, we've got ajob."
Chapter 979 Mia felt a rush of relief flood through her as she finally confessed
the truth.
Keeping this secret had been a heavy burden, and she longed for the day when
Sage could come out into the public without having to hide anymore.
Timothy was stunned by the revelation.
Two children? A boy and a girl?"
A whirlwind of emotions swept through him.
He never imagined she was pregnant with twins.
5 The idea of having his own children seemed like a distant dream.
But now, not only did they exist, there were two of them.
Mia pushed Timothy away and retorted, "
Yes, they're twins.
But what gives you the right to ask about my other child now? Do you even know
how hard it was for me to bring them into this world?"
When I fell at the Barrett villa, I nearly lost both of them due to a miscarriage.
The doctors had given up hope.
They said my children's chances of survival were almost nonexistent.
Where were youthen?"
1 He froze upon hearing that and said bitterly,
I'm sorry I wasn't there for you."
She countered, '
Your apology won't change anything.
"1
If saying sorry solved everything, why would we even need the police?"
Both children were born prematurely.
One struggled to breathe, while the other wasn't breathing at all.
The doctors battled tirelessly to save him, but he was left with severe
complications.
They cautioned that even if he survived, he might face mental disabilities.
Despite all the odds, I chose to keep him."
She glared at Timothy and continued,
Do you even know how hard I fought to keep him alive? What gives you the right
to ask about him?"
He hadn't realized how risky the twins' birth had been.
Even more shocking was that one of them had stopped breathing at birth.
He glanced at the furious Mia.
Though he longed to reach out to her, he found himself unable to move.
He cleared his throat and said, "
I know apologies won't change anything now, but can you give me a chance?"
"
No,"
she replied firmly.
I won't let you see him."
Timothy's breath caught in his throat.
"I
Even if he's disabled, he's still my child.
[won't let anything happen to him."
Mia retorted, "
What's the point of saying all this now? The children are growing up in my family.
They are well cared for and provided for.
He doesn't need anything from you.
I just need you to stay away from us and stop causing disruptions in our lives."
With that, she pushed him away.
He staggered backward and felt a sudden void in his chest.
Since reuniting with her, his heart had been on edge. Timothy had been oblivious to Mia's struggles over the years.
It wasn't until now that he realized his ignorance, after hearing her speak of the
challenges of childbirth.
He stood there awkwardly and looked at Mia, "
I'm sorry.
If I could, I'd spend the rest of my life trying to make it up to your children."
No need, Mr.
Barrett.
Our relationship ended the day we divorced four years ago.
My children and I have moved on,"
Miareplied.
1 She was ready to leave when he stubbornly grabbed her wrist.
Mia turned back angrily and met Timothy's cautious gaze.
She had never seen him look so petty before.
