Chapter 774 Luna paused, feeling somewhat awkward. “I was just concerned about you being alone in the hospital without anyone to take care of you.
“Since you didn’t wantto come, | thought maybe you would prefer Aunt Sharon's help. | only wanted to ensure your well-being.” “I've mentioned this before. Your concern should only be for Asher, not me. Please don’t waste your energy on me,” Timothy reiterated firmly.
Luna felt embarrassed by Timothy's straightforward response. “Tim, you've misunderstood. | simply didn’t want you to be alone without someone looking after you.
“If you hadn't brought up these things to my mom, she wouldn’t have cto the hospital and gotten injured in the first place,” Timothy snapped at her.

“But Aunt Sharon got hurt because of Ms. Monalize,” Luna blurted out.
Feeling a pang of guilt, she struggled to elaborate further. “I... | just happened to witness it by chance, that’s how | knew.
“Then tell me, why did my mom cto the hospital and not search for me, but instead. went downstairs to find someone else? What exactly did you say to her?” Timothy retorted. coldly, seeing through Luna’s schin an instant.
Just then, the doctor emerged from the emergency room. “Where are the patient's family members?” Timothy stepped forward. “How is my mom's condition?” “The patient fainted due to emotional distress, putting her at risk of a stroke. Fortunately, she was brought in just in time. It’s important to avoid upsetting her to prevent another episode,” the doctor explained.
Timothy's expression hardened. “I understand.” Shortly after, the unconscious Sharon was wheeled out, with Timothy accompanying her to the hospital room.
It didn’t take long for Sharon to regain consciousness. Spotting Timothy by her side, she exclaimed excitedly, “Tim!” “I'm here, Mom.” 1/2 As he approached Sharon, Timothy gently took her hand, offering comfort. “The doctor said you're okay, but you need to rest.” Observing the situation, Luna quickly stepped in, saying, “Aunt Sharon, you can’t imagine how worried Tim has been. He's been waiting outside the operating room for you.” Sharon's expression softened with relief, but then she noticed Timothy, also dressed in a patient gown. Suddenly, a memory dawned on her. “Tim, why are you in the hospital?” Timothy responded calmly, “It’s just a minor issue.” “Are you still trying to deceive me? You obviously intend to donate your bone marrow to that woman's child. It's incredibly risky. Do you wantto be consumed with worry?” Timothy's expression darkened. “Mom, | explicitly instructed Luna not to tell you about this.
“But Luna only toldbecause she was worried about you,” Sharon said.
Luna’s complexion paled. “Tim, please listen to me, I- “Enough! Your opinion doesn’t matter here,” Timothy snapped.
He didn’t even acknowledge Luna’s presence. Instead, he turned to Sharon and insisted, ” Mom, donating bone marrow isn’t as risky as you think. It's similar to donating blood.” “You're lying! Donating bone marrow can’t be compared to giving blood. | have no idea how bone marrow is even extracted. If something were to happen to you, how would | cope? Remember, the entire Barrett family depends on you!”

Sharon's emotions were running high, but Timothy remained composed. He retrieved his phone and said Mom, here's an article explaining how bone marrow donation is done. Please read it first.” Although she was skeptical, Sharon relented and took the phone.
However, Luna remained defiant. She was well aware that donating hematopoietic stem cells, yet she intentionally misled Sharon. As Luna was on the verge of speaking up, Timothy sternly instructed, “You, cwith me.” Despite her reluctance to leave, Luna was forcibly escorted out of the hospital room.
With a chilling glare, Timothy declared, “Effective immediately you're moving out of the Barrett residence. Leave Asher with my mother.”
