Chapter 770
Mia and Caleb’stood side by side, waiting for the elevator together. When the doors slid open, they were taken aback to see Luna seated in a wheelchair.
The atmosphere instantly grew tense.
Caleb cleared his throat, startled by Luna’s unexpected presence. “Luna, what brings you here?”
“I heard there’s a renowned orthopedic surgeon here, so I thought I’d come and see for myself. That’s when I ran into Tim’s secretary and learned about his hospitalization.”
Luna maintained a subtle smile, seemingly unfazed by the recent events at Aide
Castle.
Mia couldn’t help but admire Luna’s boldness. She certainly was shameless.
Standing outside the elevator, Mia exchanged a glance with Caleb before stating, “I think I’ll wait here for a bit longer.”
Caleb rubbed his nose, momentarily unsure of what to say. Who would have imagined encountering Luna here of all places?
Suddenly, Luna broke the silence. “Ms. Monalize, is Ginger still sick?”
Mia’s gaze turned cold. Without acknowledging Luna’s question, she turned away and walked off.
The elevator doors closed behind her.
Turning to Luna, Caleb asked, “Luna, how’s your leg holding up? You know Shelly has always been bossy since childhood. Why would you intentionally provoke her?”
“Caleb, I’ve tolerated Shelly for many years, but I’ve reached my limit,” Luna replied.
As she glanced down at her injured leg, her resentment toward Shelly intensified. She was determined not to let Shelly off the hook next time.

Looking up, Luna deliberately inquired, “Caleb, why is Tim suddenly in the hospital? Is he ill?”
“I’m not entirely sure. I only just found out about it myself,” Caleb replied cautiously.
He decided it would be best to avoid mentioning the matter to prevent unnecessary complications.
Luna sensed Caleb’s evasiveness, but she decided not to press further. After all, she was already aware that Timothy was hospitalized to donate his bone marrow. to Ginger.
With a façade of concern, Luna approached Timothy’s hospital room. “Tim, are you feeling sick? Why didn’t you let anyone know you were here?”
Timothy’s gaze turned cold as he glanced at Caleb, clearly displeased.
Caleb swiftly clarified, “It wasn’t my doing. We just happened to meet in the elevator.”
“Tim, it’s not ideal for you to stay in the hospital without anyone taking care of you. Hospital food isn’t as hygienic as home–cooked meals. How about I bring you food every day?”
Setting aside his iPad, Timothy met Luna’s gaze. “Don’t you have anything better to do? How are you still able to move around in a wheelchair?”
Luna’s expression wavered briefly. “Tim, don’t worry about me. Using a wheelchair isn’t a major issue.‘
“It seems like your injury isn’t as severe as Shelly’s. She’s still confined to bed.”
