Molly knew how he felt all along.Molly opened her mouth, but she could not get a word out of her mouth. She was a little puzzled.It was not because she did not know how to reject him. Instead, she did not want to say something too blatant since Benjamin helped her before.Both of them kept quiet for about five minutes. There was no better response than silence.Benjamin understood her and that was when the waiter served their food."Let's eat. Otherwise, it's going to get cold," he said.Molly nodded as she picked up the utensils. Then, she pursed her lips and said, "I'm sorry. I don't have plans for anything like that yet."Benjamin's heart hurt a little. He forced a smile while pretending to be fine. "It's all good. I just felt like telling you that after so long. I want to let you know how I feel."He indeed felt a lot more comfortable after telling Molly how he felt. "Don't feel pressured. Things are still the same between us. I just hope that you'd give me a chance whene
Alex was confused too. He frowned as he said while shaking his head, "I have no idea."Then, he looked at Sean, who was downstairs.'No matter what happened, I hope that it won't affect daddy and mommy's relationship. It took us so much effort to finally get them here.'The triplets did not want their effort to go down the drain like that at all.Sean went back to work after having dinner.He sat at his desk. There was a document on his desk that had a lot of words in it.He looked at it for quite some time, but he was still stuck in the first part.Sean noticed that he could not concentrate at all, so he closed the document and put it aside.He could not stop thinking about how Molly looked when she came back home just now. He was very irritated.'What did Benjamin say to her?'Sean stared at the decorations on his desk absent-mindedly. He was very bothered by Molly's response.He just found it hard to control his emotions whenever he thought about Molly.He realized that
'Benjamin could definitely do more than I could.'At least he would be able to be there for Molly immediately when she needs him.'Sean felt that he was useless, but he tried to hide it. He thought that the few minutes he spent in the room were longer than the entire day of waiting."What else could we be?"His worries flew off the handle after he heard Molly's response. Then, he said directly, "You can tell that Benjamin has feelings for you, right?"Molly's pupils shrank as she was a little surprised. She bit her lips and looked at Sean for a few seconds before she asked, "How did you know that?"'They didn't know each other, right? Somebody even told me that they had no connections of any kind with each other at all.'Sean chuckled when he saw Molly's reaction. "It's very obvious."He almost forgot that she could really be a dense person at certain things.For example, everybody knew why he could not get along with Benjamin, but she did not know at all.Molly blinked her e
A few days passed after Benjamin confessed to Molly in the café.Molly did not go to the hospital for a few days. She was scared to face him, and she thought that it would be very awkward for them to see each other.She was filling the tea bags in the living room. She put all the tea leaves she prepared into several small packs before tying a knot on them.Molly found out that they had finished all the tea bags when she was at home for these few days. So, she prepared some since she was free.That tea could help in cutting grease, improving one's metabolism, etc. Grandpa Dave was going out, so it would be best for him to have a cup of it after every meal.Sean came over to visit after finishing his work. He thought for a moment and arched his brows after seeing how Molly made herself busy in the living room.He could tell that she was avoiding Benjamin on purpose.Sean could not help but chuckle to himself. He did not want Molly to have too many interactions with Benjamin anyway
Grandpa Dave knew that he was going to lose after looking at the placements of Sean's white pieces.'He's so young, yet so intelligent.'However, it was not too late, and Grandpa Dave still had a chance to turn the game around.Grandpa Dave got serious and moved his black piece. Molly had watched them play for quite some time now, so she could understand what was going on and her chess skills were improving too.The battle between Sean and Grandpa Dave was so intense that Molly felt kind of intense too just from watching at the side.However, it was not right for a spectator to make any comments in a chess game, so she tried her best to control herself and watched the game quietly.Sean knew that it would not be easy for him to trick Grandpa Dave, so he had a backup plan. Grandpa Dave could not help but smack on his thigh after the game was coming to an end."You scheming fox!" Grandpa Dave was so angry that he started laughing. He did not expect that he would lose a chess game
"Of course not." Sean smiled. 'I'm not a petty person!'.The triplets who were playing were intrigued. "What happened?" They have some exciting news to share too.Before anyone could speak, they said, "Mommy! We were looking at the calendar just now and we realized that your birthday is coming soon!"The triplets were extremely loud, so Brycen could hear them from the living room. He immediately went out to join them."Molly's birthday?! We need to have a big celebration!" Brycen came over and poured himself a cup of tea before taking a sip. "Speaking of which, it's Molly's first birthday with her family. We have to give her a grand celebration!""Yeah," Sean agreed with him, which was rare. "We should really make some preparations.""Mommy, what kind of cake do you want?" Claudia stood next to Molly and looked at her curiously. "Do you like strawberry cake?"Everyone looked at Molly after Claudia asked her, as they waited for her response.Molly chuckled as she thought, 'What?
"Let me help you sit up. I thought it was cold this morning too, so you're probably sick because of the sudden change in weather. I can treat you, but you should get checked in the hospital first, just in case. I'm worried that this might cause other health problems, so you should rest in the hospital for a few days."Molly supported Grandpa Dave with both her hands and helped him sit up.Sawyer came up and looked at them without asking anything. He immediately helped Grandpa Dave get dressed and carried him downstairs while Molly gave him extra support next to him.Brycen already got Russell to wait for them at the door, so everyone went to the hospital with Grandpa Dave, including the triplets.Molly briefly told them about Grandpa Dave's condition on their way to the hospital, and they were relieved.After two hours, Grandpa Dave was done with his check-up in the hospital and Molly kept him company next to his bed.Brycen ordered Russell to get some breakfast for them as none
It was like Lara was trying to start a conversation with Molly, but she did not know where to start.After all, she had been yelling and insulting Molly for as long as she could remember.When she thought back about the past, she suddenly felt a strong sense of regret for whatever she had done. She looked at Molly's side profile and felt a weird sensation. It was her first time being nervous around Molly.Molly did not even stop scrolling through her phone as if she had no intentions to talk to Lara at all.Everyone in the room immediately kept quiet when they saw Lara talking to Molly.They all knew that Molly and the May family had countless conflicts, so they did not know if they wanted Molly to respond or not.Everyone was feeling rather awkward.But Lara did not give up. She just clenched her fists and asked another question in a softer voice, "Are Brycen and Sawyer doing better now?"Nevertheless, she only got silence as a response.Lara finally understood that Molly did
