Mia watched as Sharon and Edith grappled with each other, her eyes involuntarily shifting toward Timothy nearby.

He had thought this secret was securely guarded, shared solely between himself and Laura. However, Sharon's evident awareness of the situation took him by surprise. Indeed, this revelation should have been a crushing blow to Timothy.

Nonetheless, he remained remarkably composed and stoic, showing no visible signs of distress at the unfolding chaos.

Turning to Mia and the children, Timothy calmly directed, "Take the kids and wait in the private lounge. I'll handle things here and join you shortly."

Mia hesitated, unable to articulate her thoughts in front of Ginger and Sage.

After a brief pause, she nodded and replied, "Alright, let's go to the private lounge and order something. We'll wait for you there."

Sensing that Timothy might need some space, Mia didn't push the matter and quietly led Ginger and Sage away from the commotion.

Neither of them voiced any objections as they followed Mia.

As Sage moved forward, he couldn't resist stealing a glance back at Timothy's silhouette. The complexity of Timothy's identity had truly caught him off guard.
