Not long after.The taxi turned into a neighborhood and stopped by an apartment.Molly took her luggage and brought her three little ones to move into the apartment.The house was not huge, but it had everything she needed, and they were brand new too. The place looked very clean, and the environment was not bad either. She put down her luggage and walked to the balcony. The sunlight shined through, and the room was filled with soft warmth.“What do you think? Do you guys like this house?” Molly asked gently.Three of them said unanimously, “Yes!”Ben let out a bright smile and said with his sweet mouth, “We’ll like everything as long as Mommy picked it!”Molly chuckled and touched Ben’s head. She then started to clean the house briefly before unpacking her luggage and tidying up the little ones’ room.It was already noon when she settled down with everything.“Mommy, I’m hungry.” Claudia put her hand on her belly as she said.The other two little guys stood there and looked.
When Molly reached home, she looked at Tony, who was still following behind them. She asked flatly, "Haven't you had enough?"Tony looked composed. "Dr. May, I won't give up until you agree to treat my boss."The three little ones were next to Molly as they looked up at the pestering Uncle Tony. They started to feel bad for him and supported him by persuading their mom. "Mommy, money is money. Aren't you angry? Turn that anger into energy and use it to earn a huge amount of money from him to let off some steam!""That's right, Mommy! Aren't we going to bring great-grandpa over to stay with us? We should stay in a big house and hire a servant to take care of him. How are we going to do that if you continue acting like this?" Ben chimed in.Even Claudia started to act cute as she said, "Also, isn't Grandaunt Sue going to stay with us when she comes back to Northfolk next time? It seems like this room is a little too small!"Molly's expression shifted, and it was obvious that she was
The next day.Molly woke up early. She tied her long hair up and put on an apron before preparing breakfast for three of her children. The meal consisted of flavorful risotto, baguettes, and some toast."Mommy." Alex's adorable voice rang behind her.Molly stood in front of the dining table as she looked in the direction of his voice. All she saw were three of her babies standing together in their fluffy animal pajamas, hugging their bolsters with a sleepy look on their faces, which made them look even more endearing.Molly's heart softened. "Go brush your teeth and wash your face. Get changed before you eat.""Okay!" The trio said in unison as they ran back to their room. They were done freshening up very quickly and walked out after getting changed before they sat obediently at the table.Knock! Knock!Someone knocked at their door just when they were done eating."I'll get it."Claudia exclaimed as she hopped off her seat agilely and ran toward the door with her tiny legs.
The door opened in an instant!Standing behind the food was Tony.He looked down and saw the triplets as he showed a confused expression. "Oh, it's you, kiddos. What's the matter?""Is Uncle Handsome in?" Alex looked up and asked straight to the point.'Uncle Handsome?' Tony wondered.He paused for a while before realizing that they were talking about his boss. "Yes, he is.""What's going on?"Right after Tony responded, Sean's deep and attractive voice rang behind Tony.Sean had heard the commotion and directed his wheelchair in their direction to see what was happening.The triplets all tilted their head past Tony to look at Sean. Their eyes twinkled as they walked in a straight line and bowed to Sean.Both Sean and Tony were confused by their actions.Sean arched his brows slightly.Alex pursed his lips gently and puffed his rosy cheeks as he said seriously, "Sorry, Uncle Handsome! We would like to apologize for the misunderstanding earlier on. We're the ones who took yo
Tony got the presents ready after a few minutes. He then walked behind Sean as they headed to the house next door.Ding dong!Tony walked up and pressed the doorbell."I'll get it!" Claudia offered to open the door as she knew that it was Sean.She stood on her toes to open the door when she saw Sean sitting in the wheelchair behind the door. "Uncle Handsome, Uncle Tony! Please come in."Claudia brought them in and said obediently, "Lunch isn't ready yet, so please sit over here for a while."Alex was sensible too. He took the initiative to pour Sean and Tony some water and was afraid they would get bored from waiting, so he asked, "Do you want to watch some TV, mister?""I'm good," Tony rejected his offer flatly.Ben already felt close with Sean, so he said, "We'll be neighbors from now, so you don't have to be so prim, mister."Claudia walked on her short legs as she cupped two handfuls of candies with her hands and walked to Sean. She then lowered her voice carefully and wh
Ben and Claudia purposely squeezed in next to Sean, forcefully pushing Tony away. They were extremely welcoming as they scooped the food for Sean. "This shrimp is delicious; these sweet and sour ribs too! These are my mom's signature dishes; you have to eat more of these!""How does it taste?" Ben asked with anticipation.The food on Sean's plate had obviously increased, but he did not look frustrated at all. Instead, he answered them seriously after tasting all of the food, "Not bad indeed."Sean did not answer them half-heartedly because they were little children.The triplets' eyes twinkled when they heard his answer. They were overjoyed.'As expected!''His taste is exactly the same as ours!'Molly felt extremely defeated when she looked at her children, who had changed. 'Though he's rich, you don't have to be this warm to him,' Molly thought.She squinted her charming eyes as she felt that something was off. Mother knows best, so Molly could tell that they had other motive
Sean was stunned when he heard what Molly had said!The tense atmosphere was immediately relieved by her words.He looked at Molly with a frown as he could not understand her motive.Tony was confused as well. "Why?"'My boss is doing just fine, so why is she asking him to lie down all of a sudden?'"To inspect his legs, of course! What else?" Molly said frankly. Her calm expression was, in turn, making them seem like they were overreacting.Tony was relieved as he thought, 'It's not our fault you didn't make things clear. It's natural for us to have our suspicions.' He said, "Alright, then I'll help my boss lie down. Do you want him on the couch or the bed?"He was by Sean's side to give him a hand when it was needed. After all, Molly might not be able to move Sean's 6ft. tall body. Besides, it can save them from an awkward situation too."If it's convenient for you, it's best that we continue in the room. If that's out of the question, the couch is our last resort." Molly tho
However, Sean gave in when he considered that Molly was only doing it to treat him. Just as the saying goes, "out of sight, out of mind," so Sean closed his eyes shut.Unfortunately, Molly did not allow him to forget.She was pressing on different areas on his legs as she asked, "Do you feel anything? Do you feel anything here?""No." Sean's voice was slightly deep as he was extremely upset.'My legs are already crippled!'Molly's endless questions were like a reminder that he was a cripple!After some time, Molly was still asking Sean continuously, and he answered all her questions truthfully, which all had the same context: he did not feel anything.Suddenly, a pang of soreness rushed up to him from his legs. Sean opened his eyes abruptly and said, "That spot just now was sore!"This long-awaited feeling was something that he had never experienced before.A string of laughter echoed.Sean looked in the direction of the voice and realized that it belonged to Molly!She was
