NovelEnglishSage set aside the paper he had been holding. "You were quick to act just now. It's a good thing I was here with you." When Ginger received the call on her Apple Watch earlier, Sage happened to be nearby. Upon hearing Caleb's words, he immediately sensed it was a ruse.
Fortunately, Sage discreetly stepped in to prevent Ginger from revealing too much, even going as far as jotting down a response for her on paper.
Given the ambiguity of the conversation, Caleb likely wouldn't take Ginger's words seriously.

After all, Sage wasn't as gullible as Ginger. He was well aware of how Timothy had abandoned Mia.
Had it not been for Mia's brothers finding her in time, she would have faced considerable hardship.
These were not matters that Timothy could simply dismiss with a few casual words and sinexpensive gifts.
"Sage, Daddy really isn't that awful. He buysso many gifts and often textsto ask if anyone is bothering me." "Don't be fooled by him. Mommy hasn't forgiven him yet. You're just a little traitor!" Sage exclaimed.
At the mention of "little traitor," Ginger immediately grew anxious. "I'm not a little traitor! I will always support Mommy!" "But you were just praising that man a moment ago! You're being a little traitor!" Furious, tears welled up in Ginger's eyes; she certainly didn't consider herself a betrayer.
Just then, Mia pushed open the door and entered the ward. "What's going on? Are you two arguing?" Ginger rose to her feet, huffing indignantly. "You're so dumb, Sage. I don't want to talk to you anymore." With that, she stormed out of the ward without looking back.
Mia couldn't help but glance at Sage. "What happened?" "She's just a bit petty, getting worked up over a few words." "But she's your younger sister; you should be kinder to her." Sage replied arrogantly, "I'm doing her a favor by telling her the truth. You all spoil her too much. She might end up being taken advantage of in the future." Seeing Sage behave like a little adult Mia couldn't help but feel xasperated "Stop acting se low-up. You're only four years old 'ou're not a forty or fifty-year-old nan." >wAs Mia spoke, she affectionately tousled Sage's hair.

Mia paused briefly before replying, "He'll be leaving soon. Why do you ask?" "It's nothing. Since I've recovered from my illness, I don't need that man's assistance anymore. It's pointless for him to stay around." "I understand. You don't need to concern yourself with him." Mia's main focus at the moment was Sage's well-being.
Thus, following their ruse with Timothy at the hospital today, Mia promptly brought Ginger to visit Sage.
While Sage's recovery was progressing positively, he hadn't completely regained his health.
Mia had initially believed that with a timely bone marrow transplant, Sage would fully recover and lead a normal life like any other kid. However, reality didn't always align with expectations. Despite this, Sage's health had shown remarkable improvement. He was now able to attend ment kindergarten, albeit with sprecautions due to his medical condition. For Mia, seeing Sage well was a relief in itself.
She couldn't help but sneak a glance at Sage, noticing his uncanny resemblance to Timothy.
Mia's gaze grew complex as she asked, "Sage, would you like to meet him?" The "him" she referred to was Timothy.
