My triplet brought me a husband Chapter 23
Karl’s POVI can’t lose her again. At this point it just feels like the universe is against me.Lennox.I vowed never to speak of that name again. Why does he always find a way to keep interfering with our lives? Even from another damn city.I couldn’t stop thinking about them being together, even if it’s just for work. Knowing Lennox, he’ll want her back or the kids at least. And there is no way Diamond will ever allow him have the kids.If she goes, I lose her.After Diamond broke the news to me, I was devastated, to the point where I couldn’t utter a word. I just stood there staring at her. It all seemed too cruel to be true.The irony.Everything was finally falling into place. I know she said she wasn’t interested in being more than just friends but I can sense that she’s just afraid. I had no intention of pulling away after her rejection. I was going to assure her that there was nothing to be afraid of. That we will keep the past behind us and have a new beginning. But I guess t

Diamond’s POV“Mummy I can’t find my superman PJs”, Hayden yelled from their room.“I’ll come look for it baby.”I was packing for our trip to New York. The boys had scattered their things all over the place making it hard for me to put it all together. Braden and Jayden didn’t need as much assistance as Hayden. Especially Braden.I didn’t know how many things to pack since I had no idea how long we would be gone, so I just ended up packing as much as I could. I shouldn’t have told the boys that too because now they wanted to carry all their stuff. Hayden already had six PJs in his bag but he still wanted to pack the superman PJs.I went to the boy’s room to help them park and search for Hayden’s superman PJs. Who knows, I could even talk him out of carrying it.“Jayden, you all done?”“Not yet Mummy.”“Mummy?”, Braden calls.“Hmm.”“Is Uncle Karl still following us to New York?”, he asks.“Yes baby, he is”, I respond smiling with both ears.And at that exact moment, we hear the honk

Diamond’s POV“How can I help you?”“It is you. I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me.”The person, whoever it was, just kept staring at me after I had asked her a question. I couldn’t recognize her. Even if it’s been 7 years, I’m a doctor so remembering things is kind of my forte. If I knew her then, I should be able to remember her but the face didn’t ring a bell.“Do I know you?”“Oh sorry, I’m Marylou, Agatha’s friend.”Agatha.That’s the last name I wanted to hear. I looked up at the sky and closed my eyes silently asking God…Can’t I just stay one day in New York without being hunted by my past?It was inevitable anyways. Knowing Agatha, once she learns that I’m back, she would want to confront me. Probably to tell me to stay away from Lennox. Which is exactly what I plan to do. At least for the first time we will be on the same page.Noticing that I didn’t respond, she continued…“I was just driving when I saw you. It’s been so long, what, like 10 years. It’s good to see

Lennox’s POV “I don’t like my Barbie doll anymore Daddy.” “What’s wrong with it Nat?” “She said she’s prettier than me.” I laughed and she pouted. How did she even speak to the doll? I tried recalling if she had any Barbie dolls than could talk or make sounds. The only dolls she had that made sounds were animal dolls. So how did Barbie tell her she’s prettier? Thinking about how hilarious it sounded I laughed out loud which only made her more upset. “It’s not funny Daddy.” Natalia whined as she teared up. “I’m sorry princess.” I tried to contain my laughter. “How could she say that?”, I played along. “Exactly Daddy, she’s not my friend anymore.” “No we’re not going to fight with her okay. Promise me you’ll speak to her and you’ll become friends again.” “But…” “No buts Princess, if you speak to her I’ll get you ice cream. Deal?”, I ruffled her hair and she giggled. “Deal.” At that moment, someone knocked on the door and Natalia ran to check who it was. “D

Chapter 27Lennox’s POV Agatha and her friend looked like they had committed a crime. They kept looking back and forth between each other and me. Agatha’s friend opened her mouth to speak and shut it again. She had been doing that for the past 5 minutes as we stared at each other. I was equally shocked at the news I had just heard. There’s no way Diamond was back.Agatha was the first to speak.“How long have you been there Lennox?”“Long enough.” “You were eavesdropping on us?”, her hands moved up to her hips.Here we go again. But I couldn’t worry about that, all that occupied my mind now was Diamond. I couldn’t believe she was back. Why?“You weren’t going to tell me that she’s back?”, I said equally putting up a defensive act.“So what if she’s back Lennox, what difference does it make? What’s going to change? Oh wait, you plan to leave us for her, don’t you? You are such a cheat Lennox. Are you happy that she’s back?”I wondered how she even thought that far. She mo

Diamond’s POVI was feeling a lot of things, but one surpassed. Rage. And not entirely at Lennox. I was upset with myself for noticing how good he still looked. He was definitely pulling of that stubble and his brunette hair was brushed to the side with some strands falling behind. The suit he wore.It looked like it was custom made for him and knowing Lennox it probably was. He looked so normal, like the events of 7 years ago had no effect on him. It’s not like I expected him to be damaged or anything but I couldn’t stop the uneasy feeling in my stomach as I noticed how unaffected he looked.I turned away from him and focused on the Director as he spoke.“You’re here Dr. Winthrop.”“Alright time for formalities. Dr. Smith, Dr. Winthrop. Dr. Winthrop, Dr. Smith. You two will be working together on this surgery.” He grinned. It seems all Medical Directors are always so friendly and jovial.Lennox continued staring at me as the Director introduced us. I decided to speak f

Lennox’s POVI couldn’t take my eyes off her. It was as if she had bloomed. Before we were asked to sit I took my time observing her body. I tried my best not to make it so obvious but I guess I wasn’t discreet enough for Ralph. He saw how lost I was in Diamond. I mean who wouldn’t be?She looked so beautiful and it was hard not to stare regardless of what our relationship had been like in the past. He put us in this situation on purpose. ‘Things to attend to’ my ass. She had gained more weight which only made her curves more evident. She wore a sleek black dress that hugged her body tightly. The green wedge she was putting on made her outfit look simple yet sexy as hell.With a body like that she could pull of anything. Seating beside her, I stared at her face, her black hair which she wore in a pony tail made her hazel eyes pop.She cleared her throat to speak and unintentionally I spoke at the same time too.“How…”“So the…”We both laughed.“Go ahead”, I encourag
My triplet brought me a husband Chapter 30
Lennox’s POV So it was true. Agatha’s friend was right. Are they together? Married? A lot of questions ran through my mind. I just sat in the car for the longest time and deadpanned not knowing what emotion to portray. Diamond looked at me for a while too, probably trying to read my emotions. I just kept on staring at Karl and as he neared the car my attention was back on Diamond who seemed unbothered. Or was she trying to contain whatever she felt? She closed the door to the passenger’s seat and I followed suit. I walked to the other side of the car to meet them. My legs definitely weren’t in sync with my brain. Why are they living together? Or do they just happen to live in the same building? I was able to see my brother clearly now. He had also changed a lot just like Diamond. Looking at him, I felt my heart squeeze. My little brother. I did miss him, more than I would like to admit. I began to recall our childhood memories. How we wou

Diamond2 years later…I looked around happy with the table arrangement. Lennox would sit beside me of course, the kids and then Karl and Rebecca beside each other. The oven dinged and I went over to check the chicken. Rebecca loves her chicken golden brown and properly crisped, so I left it in for a few more minutes.Rebecca and Karl were coming over for dinner and final preparations for their wedding tomorrow. She had always wanted to go on her honeymoon the night of her wedding, so I won’t get to see her for a while after tomorrow. That only reiterated the need for this dinner. Lennox and I would be hosting them, alongside the kids. We were happily married now and might I say, this two years have been the best of my life. A lot had happened within the span of two years. My parents and I were finally on good terms although we don’t speak frequently because that can’t just change after so many years. I had gotten a permanent job at the hospital. After the incident with Tim, he an

Diamond My hands were trembling as I made my way to Lennox’s room. Karl was behind me and I could sense that he was equally as anxious as I was. Rebecca had gone to inform Lennox’s parents about his condition. I slowly knocked on the door before letting myself in. I turned to see that Karl wasn’t following me in. He nodded and closed the door behind me. Lennox was staring at me intensely as I walked across the room to the bed. “Hey”, I said as I sat beside him. “Hi”, his smile was wide and genuine. He took my hand in his and brought them up to his lips, placing a small kiss on my knuckles. “I was so scared…”, I began as tears filled my eyes, “I’m sorry”, I said cleaning the tears off my eyes. “What are you sorry for, you didn’t do anything” “Exactly, I didn’t do anything. I couldn’t do anything, I…I thought I was going to lose you. I couldn’t bear the thought of not seeing you again, of not having you in my life.” “Diamond…”, he squeezed my hands gently and looked into my

Karl I paced around the hospital hallway after my discussion with the doctor. He had spoken to Diamond first since I was nowhere to be found. After making sure Hayden was alright, I left the hospital to go search for Agatha and Lennox since they both had mysteriously disappeared. Rebecca had to stay with Diamond and the kids for emotional support. But during my vague search, I saw on the news that Lennox had been shot by an ex-convict. I had never been more sacred in my life. I began panicking and stumbled over anything and everything in my way, but I didn’t bother to pick them up. I had been to the bar I met Lennox in. At that point I just searched everywhere Lennox would normally be that I was aware of. The bartender and a few drunk men yelled at me as I exited the bar but I payed no attention to them. I immediately ran to my car, fondling with my keys, before I finally opened it. I hopped in and sped off quickly in the direction of the hospital. A lot of things went through my

DiamondHayden was awake and could finally have visitors. He’d have to stay in the hospital for a few days before he could be discharged. The doctors had to monitor his progress and recovery. “Put that down”, I ordered Braden who was accessing some of the equipment on a tray“I know you’re curious, I was too at your age, but these are sharp objects and not something you play with”, he pouted and stepped away from the tray, “I’ll get a nurse to take the tray out”Jayden was sitting beside Hayden on the bed, he had not left that position since we came in to see Hayden. I hated having to put them through this, it was my mess, they didn’t have to suffer for it too.I left the room to get a nurse to come clear the tray.I was about entering the room when I turned to see Rebecca running to me. She got to where I was standing, breathing heavily.“What’s wrong, Rebecca? Why are you running?”She was still panting heavily but managed to get her words out.“Le...Lennox, he was rushed to the ho

LennoxI had never felt more scared in my life. My heartbeat elevated as we ran into the hospital. I tried to collect my thoughts. I felt so guilty. I never should have let Natalia out of my sight. If anything happened to her it would be my fault and I wouldn’t be able to live with myself.We rushed to the security office. Rebecca was there, in a heated argument with one of the security guards.“What’s going on?”, I asked as we neared them.Rebecca turned to me and said the man wouldn’t allow her see the security footages. I mentally smacked myself in the head, why didn’t I think of this first before running to the police station.Agatha walked passed me and began threatening the guard who seemed unfazed by her words.We had to get permission from the board in other to view the footages but there was no time for that. So I stepped forward willing to plead with the guard. To my surprise he recognized me, and his tone changed to one of respect.“Dr. Winthrop, are you with t

AgathaI wasn’t sure I had heard right.“What did you say?”, I asked, anger and disgust clear in my tone.Diamond stood her ground looking as confident as ever.“You heard me…”“Diamond”, Lennox called and my eyes immediately flew to him.I couldn’t believe it. Lennox was the father of these bastards?How is it even possible?They are probably a year younger than Natalia. So when did it even happen?Where they still seeing each other behind my back?So many questions swirled in my head. I assumed a variety of conclusions.But deep down there was one final conclusion which I didn’t want to accept. And it seemed like the most reasonable…She had gotten pregnant before their divorce.That would mean he didn’t cheat on me or betray me.I turned to look at the two boys with identical faces. I had never seen it before, mainly because I never bothered to observe them, but there was a resemblance to the Winthrops…to Lennox.I shook my head in disbelief.Turning away from the b

DiamondWe were in the waiting room, expecting the feedback from the doctors in the OR.Everywhere was tense. The boys clung to me tightly.Rebecca had gone to get coffee, even though it was pretty late for that.She came into the room with a plastic cup of coffee at hand. She had asked if I wanted some but I declined.She gulped down the entire cup before assuming her position of resting on the wall again. Even when there were many available seats.Lennox was also in the room, although I didn’t dare look at him.Our conversation earlier was pretty heated. And it ended with me leaving the rooftop in tears. I didn’t even know when he entered the room since I was lost in my head.It hurt so much because everything he said was true. I hadn’t really thought about it then. But I could see now that what I did was wrong, not only to Lennox but to my boys too.Could you really blame me though?I was humiliated and I had no one. And my boys deserved the best. They still do.The door

Lennox‘His father’s blood is a match’The words kept replaying in my head. I didn’t understand.Why would the doctor call me Hayden’s father?Maybe he made a mistake.“What are you saying Doc?”, I asked.“Well you know how we are incorporating new technology into every field in this hospital. So we used the STRs for a more accurate and faster result”The STRs…It is a specific genetic marker.That method would not just check the compatibility of the blood group but also genetic similarities.No I couldn’t believe it. I shook my head turning away from the doctor.“Here are the results”, he said for more confirmation.I slowly took them from his hands, eager yet scared to see what it was.I unfolded the paper.Positive…Match…Applicable…He was right. The Doc was right.So many thoughts swirled through my head. I didn’t even know where to start.“You can come in for the transfusion whenever you’re ready”, he said, bringing me back to reality.He turned away from me

Diamond I blinked a million times. Maybe my eyes were playing tricks on me. I couldn’t believe that was Hayden on the floor. Rebecca shook me yelling my name before I finally snapped out of it.The realization dawned on me.I quickly ran to Hayden who was lying unconscious. The boys began to cry tugging on Hayden. He was bleeding from his head. I looked up at Natalia, her expression had gone from angry to frightened.I turned to her sharply and yelled.“Why did you do this? Why did you push him?”, I was so furious now I couldn’t think straight.“What the hell is wrong with you?”“I don’t…I” she stammered, and her eyes widened in shock when she saw the blood flowing from Hayden’s head.The boys kept crying now and fought the tears that threatened to fall.I hurriedly carried Hayden in my hands and Rebecca ran to get the keys to the car.No communication was needed.I rushed to the car and placed an unconscious Hayden in the back seat and I hopped in sitting beside him
