Timothy swallowed hard. "So, even if Asher's my son, you'd be unbothered by it?" His gaze on Mia was serious.
"What is there to be bothered by? We're divorced. Whoever you have kids with doesn't have anything to do with me." Her tone was calm yet stern.
Irked by the answer, he loosened his tie. Although it was true that they were legally divorced, it was frustrating to hear that.
The conversation ended there.

The driver drove them to the hospital at the fastest speed possible.
Mia had ordered her men to find the said nurse in the hospital while she was on the way there. That way, the nurse wouldn't run away after catching wind of it.
Finally, Mia and Timothy could meet the nurse.
A while ago, some bodyguards caught her and locked her up in the room. She had a hunch that it was related to the bone marrow.
Her whole body was shaking. Regret consumed her. She rued the decision she made, taking the risk due to greed.
Mia kicked the door open, storming into the room like thunder.
Glaring at the nurse, she threatened, "If you want to live, tell me where the bone marrow is." Timothy added sternly, "You better not have thrown it away like what Luna told you to do." The nurse quickly admitted, "I didn't! I still have it!" Relief lifted the weight off Mia's chest when she heard that. The tension in the room willed away.
She approached the nurse. Her tone became gentle. "Very well. As long as you still have it, we can have a nice talk." The nurse hurriedly recounted, "Although Ms. Maynard told me to do whatever | want with it, | was worried so | kept it. It's safe.

There shouldn't be a problem with it." "Good, where is it?" "There's a shared refrigerator in the office. It's in a container with my non it." Timothy motioned for the bodyguards to look for the bone marrow.
Soon, the container was found. The bone marrow was perfectly fine.
The doctor checked the bone marrow. "It's nicely kept. We can use it." Those words lifted the weight off Mia's shoulders like a pair of invisible hands.
The nurse begged, "I'm so sorry. | did it because | needed the money to treat my family. The past few days felt so awful and | didn't dare to throw the bone marrow away.” Mia said, "If you don't want to be held accountable for this, you have to promiseone thing."
