Betty appreciates all that he did to assist her when she was In school, and she had a conversation with Nicolas because she believed that they were supposed to start their wedding preparation, and she said, "Nicolas, we've been for so long, and I wanted to ask you some questions, and I want honest answers"

"go ahead with your question," Nicolas said,

"do you have a girlfriend?" Betty asked,

"I'm with Nicolas," Betty said,

"you need to come, Benita fell, but she has been taken care of, but you still need to come," Betty's mom said,

"Okay, I'm right on my way coming," Betty said, and she picked up her handbag while Nicolas put on his canvas, and the two of them headed to Betty's mom's house,

Getting to Betty's mom's house, Betita and Bernard are playing around In the compound, while Benita sat down watching them, and when Benita saw Betty and Nicolas come to the house, "she said, Betita, Bernard, see mom and dad" and the kids came hugging their mom and Nicolas, and he gave them the snacks and three cups of ice cream that he bought for them, and the kids are happy with their mom and Nicolas,

Betty dialogue with the kid's nanny about the relocation to another area In the city, and she agrees to follow the kids because the kids had used to her, she played the role of mom whenever Betty was not around, and Betty changed the school of the kids to the nearby school, and Betty always wake up early every day before she could meet up with her job,

Two months later, Jake and Valery came to the North West province capital city on a visit, though Jake has wanted to meet with triplets since he had heard about them,

Valery knew that Betty was no more living with their mom, and when they arrived home, Jake was eager to see the mother of the triplets because of the story of one night stand he heard about Betty, but he didn't expect to be betty, and Valery never thought that Jake could ever meet Betty because she is not his type, she believes Jake likes wayward, glamorous, well educated and civilized girl, and Betty Is far from those qualities that Jake required In a woman,

A few minutes later, he looks around the house, there were no traces of those triplets, and he asked, "where are the triplets?"

"they are no more living here" Valery retorted,

"do you know where they were living?" Jake asked,

"I don't know but Alan Is around, he will lead us there" Valery retorted, "but why are you so eager to see these kids, they are my niece and nephew, why are you so bothered," she said,

"Don't be furious at me babe, the kids caught my attention, and they attracted to me, and I decided to meet them" Jake explained, "are we not here because of the kids?" he asked,

Alright,

Valery called Alan on phone, "sis, hi" Alan responded, "are you at home?" he asked,

"yeah, I'm at home, please come and lead us to Betty's house, don't keep us waiting," Valery said,

"I'm right on my way coming," Alan said,

"where are you?" Valery asked,

"Neighborhood" Alan retorted,

"Okay, waiting for you," Valery said, and she

ended up with the phone conversations,

A few minutes later, Alan walked Into the house, and three of them entered Into the car, and the driver drives them to Betty's house, and three of them came out of the car, and they walked to the doorstep of Betty's house, and they knock the door, and a voice came, and said, "hold on I'm coming" the nanny said, and she opened the door, and she said, "Betty Is not around", and she said, "come In" and the three of them entered Into the apartment, meanwhile the kids are Inside their nursery reading.

"When would she be coming back from the office?" Valery asked,
