Caleb decided to be direct, hoping to catch Ginger off guard.

After all, it was easy to deceive children with just a few words.

Upon hearing Caleb's question, Timothy grew somewhat uneasy. Why couldn't Caleb be more subtle?

Since the phone was on speaker, Timothy could hear Ginger's voice on the other end as well.

Just then, Ginger's sweet, childish voice came through, "I'm not sick, you're the one who's sick!"

Caleb's expression shifted to one of surprise, and he shot a glance at Timothy. Could it be that Timothy's suspicion was correct?

There was a pause on the phone before Ginger replied, "To help me get well, obviously."

"Ginger, don't play games. You just admitted you're not sick. I know the secret between you and your mom."

Ginger was momentarily caught off guard, feeling a bit flustered. However, she quickly regained her composure and responded seriously, "Are you silly? Mommy told me that I'm all better now, so I'm not sick anymore."
