Chapter 826

Rachel suffered from a rare disease similar to Sage's, preventing her from leading a normal life.

While Sage's condition was somewhat more manageable, stemming from various complications due to

premature birth, Rachel's illness presented greater challenges due to its rarity.

Nonetheless, Rachel had grown accustomed to her condition.

As she looked at Sage, a hint of excitement painted her expression. "Finally, Sage can receive

treatment. I thought he would be pestering me in the lab for the rest of my life. Once he's treated, he'll

probably want to leave quickly. Kids can be quite a handful.”

Unfazed, Sage retorted, "Who wants to stick around here anyway?" Observing their playful banter, Mia

could discern the strong bond between Rachel and Sage. With a smile, she said to Rachel, "I believe

things will improve one day."

“I'm optimistic too. I've been researching a new medication lately that I'm confident will cure my illness.”

"I'm certain it will."

Mia was aware that despite Rachel's physical ailments, she possessed exceptional intelligence.

Over the years, Rachel had contributed significantly to the development of numerous medications in

Nicholas’ lab.

Unfortunately, none of them had been effective in curing her illness. Shortly after, Nicholas arrived with

the medical team. He turned to Mia and informed her, "The bone marrow has been examined, and

everything looks good. We will commence treatment now. Please wait outside."

Mia nodded, casting a reassuring glance at Sage. "Hang in there, Sagey! Mommy will be waiting for

you outside.”

Upon hearing his nickname, Sage's expression darkened. "Mommy, you're not allowed to call me that

anymore."

After all, he had a name, and it wasn't "Sagey."

Mia replied somewhat regretfully, "Why not? I think it's a lovely nickname, similar to your name."

Her daughter was named Ginger Lane, and her son was named Sage Lane.

As Mia exited the treatment room, the smile on her face gradually faded, replaced by a worried

expression.

Nicholas had pointed out that even with the bone marrow matching treatment, there was no guarantee

of Sage's complete recovery. Despite this, Mia clung to the hope that this treatment would allow Sage

to attend school and socialize like any other child. That would be enough for her.

While waiting outside, a sudden realization struck Mia.

She turned to Peyton beside her and instructed, "Have someone look into the situation with Claude and

Timothy at the airport. If Timothy has passed away, I'll need to arrange for his body to be brought back.”

Peyton nodded in acknowledgment. “I'll dispatch someone to the airport immediately to assess the

situation.”

Not long after, Dominic and Eva arrived, accompanied by Ginger. Upon seeing Mia, Ginger dashed

over to her. "Mommy, is Sage going to get better?”

Mia reassured her, "Yes, Sage will be healthy like you after this surgery. It's all thanks to you, my little

hero. You saved Sage."

Ginger beamed with pride; she had always been conscious of her intelligence.

As the surgery stretched on, Ginger eventually drifted off to sleep while waiting outside.

At that moment, Mia caught sight of Claude entering, his expression grim. She also noticed a wound at

the corner of his mouth, likely from the recent altercation.

Had Timothy caused this injury?
