Timothy lowered his gaze and glanced at Mia, asking, "So, what's your offer?"

Meeting Timothy's suggestive gaze, Mia swiftly adjusted her expression, retorting, “You're mistaken. I'm a person of integrity!" Shortly afterward, the store attendant arrived with a small toy, stating, “This toy is on sale for exactly 50 dollars. It's the least expensive item in our store and also a suitable gift for you, sir."

Glancing at the modest toy, Mia couldn't help but notice its simplicity compared to the lavish gifts Timothy had previously selected for Ginger. Without hesitation, Timothy picked up the toy and placed 50 dollars in cash on the table, declaring, "I'll take it."

Mia was surprised by Timothy's sudden decisiveness. She hadn't realized Timothy could be so flexible and accommodating.

Having decided to visit Ginger in the hospital, Mia realized she needed to prepare some gifts in advance.

Since things weren't panning out with Timothy, she would have to persuade Ginger to play along in another scheme.
