"Mommy, why aren't you back yet?" Claudia's sweet voice came through the phone.Molly stepped forward and walked to the window again. She watched the raindrops hit the window, and it slid down. But, her heart was lit like a light."I won't be coming home tonight because of the rain. It's more dangerous to go home in this weather. So, I plan to stay here for a night and call to let you know," said Molly."Then, are Uncle Sean and Uncle Tony coming back?" This time it was Alex who asked. His voice was a little softer than Claudia's, and it sounded like he was far from the phone."Yeah, all of us won't be back today. There are rooms upstairs in this villa." Molly replied. She had no idea that the triplets were covering their mouths and snickering."It's okay, Mommy. You should get along well with Uncle Sean!" The triplets smiled and said. They were hoping that Molly would not come back. It would be even better if it rained every day!To the triplets, once Molly and Sean live there t
After a while.Molly was a little hungry. She lifted her head and asked Sean, "Do you feel like eating?"Molly felt that her stomach was empty, and there was nothing in it.Sean was not very hungry, but he knew that Molly was good at cooking. So, he nodded in response and said, "Sure."It would be like having a late-night snack.Molly got up after Sean replied, and she left the main hall.Just as Molly got to the kitchen, she stopped and found that Sean was following her in his wheelchair."I'll help you," said Sean.Molly moved swiftly. She had already picked a handful of onions from the vegetable basket and rinsed them with the tap."It's okay. You can just wait for the food by the table." Molly turned her head and glanced at him and refused directly."It's better to be respectful than to obey," said Sean.Sean's eyebrows raised slightly. He looked at Molly for a few seconds after answering. He could not help but think that Molly would be a good wife and loving mother.Se
Molly suddenly woke up. When she opened her eyes, her heartbeats accelerated.The explosion-like sound made Molly lose control for a moment. She wanted to exhale, but her chest felt uncomfortably tight.Molly sat up straight and tried to breathe calmly. She looked at the dim and dreary environment in front of her and tumbled around in her thoughts to recall the surroundings when it was daytime.Molly gradually calmed down and was no longer sleepy.'Why is it raining so heavily and thundering so loud?' Molly wondered.She could not help but begin to worry about the triplets at home.'Claudia was timid and afraid of thunder. Every time she hears the thunder, she will shrink into Molly's arms. I wonder how she is tonight.'Molly's mind was full of the triplets' cute little faces, and she missed them even more as the night went by.Molly tilted her head and glanced at the window. The rain was still beating against the window, and another white light flashed, followed by a low-pitch
Sean looked down at the thick black hair on the top of Molly's head. The warm yellow light shone a circle of luster reflected into his eyes.It was not dazzling at all."At the joints," Sean replied.Molly immediately understood and stretched out her hands to cover the joints of his legs. She massaged it with all her strength."It's normal. After all, that's where you got hurt," Molly said. After she said that, she did not know if that was a comfort or...Molly used her elbow as a fulcrum to drive her wrist joint. Her movements were gentle, and she used her strength moderately. Her palms were warm, and she slowly dispelled the soreness for Sean.Sean kept observing Molly and focused on her. He could not help, but his eyes darkened. He stared at her and did not dare to move his eyes."Why are you awake at this hour?" Sean asked.He wanted to hear Molly talk and listen to her voice.Molly smiled lightly and said, "I was woken up by the sound of thunder, and I thought about how C
"It's all in the past now, and things will get better in the future," said Sean.His heart ached as he listened to Molly retelling her past.Although Molly said it calmly, Sean could feel her pain. It was difficult for someone who had just stepped into society and had not even finished college to survive alone in a foreign country.But even so, Molly did not give up.Considering the three sensible and lovely children at home, Sean felt relieved for her. But, he also felt sorry for her at the same time.Molly was still massaging him to relieve the discomfort on his legs, but Sean could not help reaching his hand out and touching Molly's face."If only I could have met you earlier," said Sean.That way, Sean could help her and make her suffer less.Molly was stunned by the sudden touch, and her cheeks were slightly hot.Molly looked up at Sean and saw the obvious distress in his eyes. It would be a lie if Molly said she was not touched by his action.It felt like something was
The two continued to chat for a while, and the long night was gone with their chatting and laughing.The sound of the rain outside was like a piano playing song. The notes were from intense to low and fast to slow until the final chapter.The rain flowed from the leaves and dripped. It fell into the warm soil under the light from the villa.Sean raised his elbow, revealing his delicate and low-key wristwatch. After glancing at it for a second, he put away his hand and looked at Molly."It's getting late. Let's go back and rest," said Sean.'The rain isn't pouring anymore, and thunder is no longer roaring. So, Molly should be able to sleep well.' Sean thought.It would be bad for their health if they stayed up late. They both needed sleep.Molly looked at Sean and instructed him once more."Come to me if you feel any discomfort. You hired me to take care of you. So, don't force yourself to bear it. I will find a way to help soothe your pain," said Molly.Sean could feel Molly's
'It must be the three little ones.' Molly thought and picked up the call. There was a baby voice coming from the other end of the phone."Mommy~"Molly could not help but smile and replied softly."Yes, have you had your breakfast?""We did!" the triplets replied."How are you, Claudia? It rained heavily and thunder was roaring last night. Were you scared?" Molly asked softly and took a sip of hot tea."No, Mommy! I wasn't scared. I have my brothers with me!" said Claudia as she leaned closer to the phone. Her voice was soft and sweet. She glanced at her brothers beside her with a bright smile when she spoke.Last night, Alex and Ben knew that Claudia would be afraid. They ran to her room in the middle of the night to comfort her. Little Claudia slept between her brothers, and she slept soundly."Don't worry, Mommy. We'll look after Claudia when you're not around." Ben said immediately after Claudia had finished talking."Yeah, Mommy. Leave it to us." Alex followed and said.
"Then, we'll be going now," Tony said to Molly, pushing Sean out.Molly watched the two leave, and the door slowly closed with a click.Suddenly, she felt a little subtle.'Why does it feel like I'm watching a husband going to work and asking his wife to stay at home and wait for him to come back?'As soon as this idea popped up, Molly could not help but tap her head lightly. She talked to herself in her heart.'Molly, you have a wild imagination!'Molly was very busy the whole morning. The requirements for the villa's renovation were relatively strict. She was busy watching the blueprint of the research institute and supervising at work.When Molly looked at the time, she suddenly realized it was already time for lunch.Molly looked out the window when she heard the sound of a car's engine outside. The person who came out of the car was Sean.'This guy really came back to have lunch with me.' Molly thought.Molly had a smile, and a sweet sensation spread in her heart."It's
