NovelAppChapter 716 Feeling relieved, Asher set down his utensils and headed toward the play area.
Now, only the three adults remained at the table.
Luna was determined to improve Asher’s image in Timothy's eyes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe explained, “Tim, | understand that Asher has been a bit spoiled. When we get home, I'll ensure he learns how to eat on his own. | won't allow the nanny from the Barrett family to continue feeding him anymore.” “Hmm.” Timothy simply responded with a humm.
As Mia finished up her meal, she turned to Timothy and asked, “Why does Asher need a nanny from the Barrett family to take care of him?” While the investigation revealed little about Luna's relationship with Timothy, it was evident that Luna, along with Asher, had been living in the Barrett residence.
Indeed, their relationship appeared to be anything but ordinary.
Luna’s expression brightened with a smile. “It’s challenging forto raise a child by myself. After a previous bad experience with a nanny, Mrs. Barrett was concerned for Asher’s well-being and arranged for a new nanny to assist.” Finally, Monalize inquired about Asher’s identity.
Mia raised an eyebrow. “Is Asher your son, Mr. Barrett?” “No,” Timothy denied firmly.
Luna seemed somewhat embarrassed as she uttered, “Regardless, Asher is still part of the Barrett bloodline.” Mia was puzzled by Luna's statement. Despite Timothy's denial that Asher was his son, Luna continued to insist that he was connected to the Barce lineage.
However, Timothy was an only child! “Oh! I'm going to beat you! I'll keep hitting you until you're dead! How dare you take my toy!” Suddenly, Asher’s voice echoed nearby.
As Mia turned around, she noticed Ginger being pinned to the ground by Asher. Her expression quickly shifted, and she dashed over without hesitation. “Why are you attacking her?” Pushing Asher aside, Mia quickly scooped Ginger up, embracing her tightly, “Ginger, are you alright? Can you let Mommy know if you're hurt?” Nonetheless, Ginger offered no response. She weakly leaned against Mia's chest before slipping into unconsciousness.

Knowing Asher, he’s not typically that rough. Is it possible that Ginger might be suffering from sother ailment?” Timothy sternly intervened, “Luna, keep your mouth shut!” With that, he picked up the unconscious Ginger and cradled her in his arms. “I'll take her to the hospital.” Mia's eyes reddened slightly as she glanced back at Luna, a hint of hostility in her gaze. “If anything happens to Ginger, | won't let you off the hook.” Luna instinctively shielded Asher behind her. Nervously, she asked, “What do you plan to do? Asher is still so young; he doesn’t grasp the situation.” “You'd better pray Ginger is alright!” Mia retorted as she left the lounge, leaving Luna visibly shaken.
With a pale complexion, she turned to Asher and asked, “Asher, why did you hit Ginger, especially with Uncle Tim nearby? How many times have 1 reminded you? You need to win Uncle Tim's favor and be on your best behavior when he’s around.” “But Mommy, | can’t stand her. | hate her for taking Uncle Tim away from me.” Asher threw a tantrum, seemingly oblivious to the gravity of the situation.
Meanwhile, Mia and Timothy rushed Ginger to the nearest hospital.
Ginger was swiftly taken into the emergency room, illuminated by flashing red lights outside.
Mia's anxiety surged as she turned to Timothy, her tone laced with an ominous warning.
“If anything were to happen to Ginger, | would never forgive Luna and Asher. Your relationship with them means nothing to me. Mark my words.”
