Meet My Brothers

Mia found herself questioning how Timothy had conveniently arrived at that pivotal moment, right after her return from the hospital with Ginger and Sage. Timothy paused briefly before explaining, "Since Ginger and Sage are finally here, I thought it would be a good time to bring them some gifts."

It became evident that Timothy's timely appearance was due to the gifts he had prepared, dispelling any initial suspicion Mia had of Luna's involvement.

However, the timing appeared to align well, particularly in light of Luna's recent infiltration of the hospital.

Given Luna's reputation for vigilance and caution, it seemed plausible that she would patiently await the perfect moment to act.

Patricia swiftly stepped in, acknowledging, "Your kindness is greatly appreciated, Mr. Barrett. I haven't had the chance to get any gifts for Ginger and Sage since their arrival.

"If you've already prepared something, please bring it in, and we'll ensure it's set aside for them."

Had Timothy not arrived promptly, Patricia, Mia, Sage, and Ginger would have been at a significant disadvantage against Noah, Pamela, and Diane.

Nevertheless, Patricia couldn't help but notice a slight easing of tension between Mia and Timothy.

Was it possible that Laura's influence had played a role in improving their relationship?

Mia refrained from intervening, acknowledging that Timothy's timely arrival had spared Patricia and the children from potential harm.

This time, Mia admitted her own oversight, regretting the absence of any bodyguards with her. After all, she never anticipated such an incident occurring in this location. Shortly after, Heath and his team arrived with the gifts, swiftly occupying a substantial portion of the living room.

A faint smile played on Mia's lips as she remarked, "Why did you purchase so many?"

Timothy remained composed as he elaborated, "I wasn't certain about Ginger and Sage's preferences, so I picked up a variety of items. They can choose what appeals to them." Mia was utterly stunned. Timothy's extravagant gift-giving mirrored her brothers' lavishness perfectly.

It was truly remarkable how her children hadn't been swayed by growing up in such opulence.

Patricia, too, was surprised by Timothy's generosity. She paused briefly before commenting, "Mr. Barrett, you've bought quite an array of gifts. The children might not be able to appreciate all of them."

With a hint of arrogance, Sage remarked, "I already have all these gifts. So, I'm not really interested in any of them."

Timothy gestured toward a sizable box, remarking, "These are accessories for the telescope you received last time. I've heard they greatly enhance the viewing experience." Sage hesitated for a moment before swiftly realizing the truth. "You're the one who bought that telescope?" he asked.

Upon noticing Sage's reaction, Mia grinned sheepishly as she admitted, "Yes, he was the one who bought that telescope. He managed to sneak it past me last time." Sage's expression froze, torn between irritation and indifference.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Patricia gently took Sage's hand and encouraged him, saying, "Feel free to take it. Since it was your father who bought it, it's only right to accept. You shouldn't hesitate."

Despite Patricia's encouragement, Sage remained silent.

On the contrary, Ginger appeared to be quite fond of Timothy's gifts. She picked up a doll's box and commented, "I like this one. We can do without the rest."

Mia admired Ginger's considerate nature. Even in this situation, she chose to spare Timothy any embarrassment.

Noticing Ginger's thoughtfulness, Patricia affectionately patted her head and said, "Oh, our sweet little angel! Just let me know what you'd like for dinner tonight, and I'll prepare it for you."

With that, Patricia guided Ginger and Sage into the kitchen, providing an opportunity for Timothy and Mia to have some private time.

Observing the heap of gifts on the floor, Mia remarked, "There's really no need for all these gifts. Our home is already overflowing, and Ginger and Sage have everything they need. Why go to such great lengths?"

As Mia's word's dwindled, Timothy's expression hardened. "Besides buying gifts; I'm at a loss for how else to reconcile with them. If the kids aren't keen on these presents, we could always consider donating them to charity."
