"Who says I'm leaving? Let's head to the hospital now," Timothy responded.
Frustration gnawed at Caleb. "What for?" Timothy got into the car. "To check Ginger's medical record." His tone was monotonous.

"Nothing yet. I'll call him for follow-ups now." "It's fine. Tell him to meetoutside the hospital. I have something to ask him." Clouds of doubt were shrouding Timothy. He had to look into the matter in the hospital in person.
Heath said cautiously, "But the earliest flight back to Bern City is an hour later. We still have tto rush back to the airport now. Otherwise, we will have to wait for two hours." Reclining in his seat, Timothy responded, "Who says that I'm going to the airport?" Caleb arched his brow. "Is it a feign so that the Lanes will assthat you're going to leave soon? But in truth, you're not going to the airport." Timothy hummed in response, taking in the scenery outside the window. He wouldn't leave Nord City that easily.
It didn't take long for Timothy to reach the hospital.
A moment later, an ordinary-looking man approached the car. "Hi, Mr. Barrett," he politely greeted.
"Where's the medical record? Found anything?" The man quickly handed over the printed medical record, lowering his voice as he said, "Actually, we can't find anything from this medical record. Nothing's out of particular, but there is something weird." "Fire away." Timothy took the medical record.
"According to a janitor, the patient doesn't cto the hospital often. It's difficult to gain information because everything about that patient is confidential. I might give the gaway before I know it." Timothy contemplated for a while. "Continue the investigation. Take your time. Don't alarm the other party." "Yes, sir." Timothy wound up the window and skimmed through the medical record. Nothing was wrong with the data.

et "If I knew the answer to that, I wouldn't have needed to initiate an investigation. It's just a guess for now Nothing's confirmed. I'm not sure what's hidden from us either." Caleb stroked his jaw. "If Ginger is really the patient, there's no need for them to be this mysterious. The hospital doesn't have to cover for it. It's not like it's an embarrassing illness. Perhaps, they're trying to fool someone?" "To fool me." Timothy let out a humorless chuckle.
Mia was surely hiding something from him, but he didn't expect it to be related to their child.
Caleb rambled on his doubts, "But why is Mia lying to you? For your bone marrow? No, that's unreasonable. I'm sure she needed it to treat someone." Timothy continued, "But the patient is not Ginger. Mia cto Bern City and approachedwith Ginger with an ulterior motive." "If not Ginger, who could the patient be? Mia was so confident that your bone marrow would match with the patient's though." Right then, Timothy's eyes widened at Caleb. "What did you say?" Timothy seemed to have a vague idea of what was going on.
