Chapter 626
“If she’s not your daughter, why would she come all this way to find you? Didn’t you get dumped by some lady in Nord City? Could it be possible that Ginger is her child?”
“That can’t be.”
Caleb’s expression immediately darkened. He certainly didn’t want to revisit his troubled past in Nord
City?
Looking at Ginger lying on the couch, Caleb eventually conceded. He retrieved a damp towel from the
bathroom and used it to wipe off the cake residue from her hands.
Putting down the towel, Caleb inquired, “Tim, where is she going to sleep tonight?”
The two men exchanged uncertain glances. Despite their business expertise, neither had much
experience dealing with children.
Timothy’s gaze shifted to Ginger, who was awkwardly sprawled on the couch. Her resemblance to Mia
struck a chord with him, leaving Timothy feeling somewhat disheartened.
Finally, he muttered, “She said she wants to sleep on the couch.”
“Well, I guess that’ll do. I’ll fetch her a blanket.”
“I’ll go take a shower.”
Timothy couldn’t help but glance down at the lipstick marks on his clothes. As he reflected on the recent
incident, his expression became unreadable.
The woman from earlier bore a striking resemblance to Mia, except for the beauty mark at the corner of
her eye.
However, their personalities were entirely different.
The two men turned simultaneously and made their way toward the bedroom. Just before they entered, a
muffled thud emanated from the direction of the sofa.
It was evident that something had fallen to the floor.
Timothy narrowed his eyes slightly and headed swiftly to the sofa. There, he found Ginger peacefully
sleeping on the carpet.
Caleb chuckled. How has she not woken up yet?”
Timothy stooped to lift Ginger from the floor. As he did so, Ginger nuzzled against his chest and made a soft smacking sound with her lips, calling out gently. “Daddy.”
Finding a comfortable spot in his arms, she soon drifted off to sleep.
Timothy gazed down at Ginger in his embrace, his brow furrowing. “I didn’t say I was going to hold you
while you sleep.”
Ginger began to snore softly, her chubby hands clinging to his clothes.
Despite being able to easily move her hands away, Timothy decided not to intervene. Instead, he
carefully cradled Ginger in his arms and carried her to the bedroom.
There, he laid her down on the bed and tenderly covered her with a blanket.
Watching the scene unfold, Caleb understood why Timothy had a change of heart. After all who could
resist such an adorable face?
Leaning against the door, Caleb inquired. “Is your face still sore?”
Earlier in the hotel lobby. Timothy endured two slaps without uttering a word.
Timothy’s expression soured. “No one asked for your two cents.”
With that, he headed straight to the bathroom to change his shirt. Glancing at the phone number written
