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.

"

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.

"

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.

"

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.
