Mia added, "I did all this for fun. Nothing more. And it's surely not because I have lingering feelings for Timothy."
"Are you telling the truth?"
"Yes, I swear to God. There's another reason why I made him stay. Sage's treatment isn't going as smoothly as planned. He has not fully recovered yet.
"At that time, I thought Timothy could be of use when we needed something else from him. That was why I made him stay for a while."
Mia put on her best sincere expression so that Dominic would believe her.
"If so, why didn't you tell me that he was here? I could've just locked him up so that he couldn't go anywhere."
She broke in a cold sweat. "You know his character. I've been keeping from him that Sage is the patient, not Ginger. If you had done that, Timothy would've smelled the rat."
"So what? It doesn't matter. I can do whatever to him in Nord City. If I want him dead, he will be."
"Still, he is the father of my children. I don't think we should kill him," said a level-headed Mia.
She would never have any lingering feelings for that bastard.
"Fine. Consider him lucky. I'll let him off the hook for now."
Surprised, she questioned, "Did you do something to him?"
Could Dominic possibly be that quick?
"Not yet. I just sent an assassin after him for a talk, 'telling' him to vanish from your life."
