Chapter 772
After visiting Adriana, Jean left with the triplets.
As they left the hospital, the triplets asked him: “Is there anywhere else you’d like to visit, Uncle Jean? We cantake you around!”
Jean took a look at the time. “Let’s go get your mommy and have lunch together first. We’ll go around later in theafternoon.”
The triplets were elated. “Okay!”
They got into the backseat of the car, and introduced different places to Jean as they traveled down the road.
“We’ve been living here since we were young, Uncle Jean! We know the place very well. We can take you to visita lot a lot a lot of different places…”
Jean listened to them attentively as they uttered random things sporadically.
As the car kept driving smoothly down the road, he suddenly couldn’t find the impulse within his chest andinterrupted them.
“Can you call me daddy?”
As soon as those words came out, the triplets’ voices suddenly stopped. They were stunned by what they justheard.
Sammy scratched his head. “Huh?”
Harvey said quietly: “Why are you asking that out of nowhere… Uncle Jean?”
Penny tilted her little head, she was just as puzzled.
Jean kept silent for a few more seconds, and decided to be honest with them. He then took out a piece of paperthat he had been carrying from his pocket slowly.
“I saw this when I went into your room some time ago.”
Shock was written all over the triplets’ faces the moment they saw the piece of paper he was holding.
They looked at Jean simultaneously and asked uncertainly: “You… You know about everything?”
Jean nodded, and curled the corner of his lips with a half-smile.
“You three little silly things. You’ve done a great job at keeping this a secret, huh?”
The triplets felt a little guilty as they blinked their eyelashes cautiously and asked: “Then… aren’t you angry atus?”
Jean raised an eyebrow. “Angry? Now why would I be angry?”
“Because we’ve lied to you for so long…” Sammy swallowed his saliva, and said timidly.
“I’m not angry at all.” Jean responded in an instant, his eyes clear as day.
How could he have the heart to be angry at them?
The triplets exchanged glances, and asked again timidly: “Then, does that mean you accept us?”
Jean didn’t say a word, his bright eyes looking at each of their faces, one by one, taking in their tensions andfears. He felt both distressed and loving at the same time.
He then broke out an affectionate smile under the complicated yet expectant eyes of the little ones.
“I’ve liked you guys even before I knew of your identities. Now that the truth is out, why wouldn’t I accept youguys? If you had come clean to me earlier, I would’ve accepted you guys sooner if I had known.”
Hearing this, the triplets couldn’t suppress the sheer joy and excitement in their hearts.
Fearing that this was all a dream, they pinched their own cheeks simultaneously.
“...Ouch!”
They then stared at Jean’s expression carefully again.
They could feel that he wasn’t lying to them, so they cheered in excitement.
“Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!”
Finally being able to call Jean “daddy” openly and freely, the triplets were so happy that they called it out overand over again like little birds.
Sammy and Penny then excitedly threw themselves into Jean’s arms.
Jean could feel the softest part of his heart had been hit hard as he hugged the two of them.
He used his hand to hug the two little ones with much strength. He was deeply satisfied to feel their embrace.
Harvey was just as excited too.
Although he had always been the more reserved one, he didn’t throw himself into his hug, his eyes were red too,as he shyly called: “Daddy!”
Jean smiled, and stretched out his other hand to pull Harvey into his chest and hugged him tightly as well.
It felt like Jean had the whole world in his arms at that moment.
Ian, who was driving, felt just as elated as he witnessed the scene through the rearview mirror.
Ho ho ho!
His master and the children had finally recognized each other!
There was nothing in the world that was more moving than this!
The father and children hugged each other for a while, then the triplets got anxious again.
“Daddy, does mommy know about this already?”
Jean could see their worries, and shook his head. “No, I haven’t told her yet.”
“Phew, thank god.” The triplets sighed in relief.
Then, they hurriedly advised their father. novelbin
“You better not tell mommy just yet! We still don't know how she would react to this, so we should definitely testthe waters first.”
“Exactly! After all, what had happened initially had given much mental trauma to mommy. We hid this from herbecause we were scared that she might get frightened. What if she can’t take it… It would be a lot of troublethen…”
“Yeah! Let’s wait until the time is right, then tell her. That should be better! That way, she won’t be so resistant,maybe the knot in her heart would be untied by then.”
Seeing that the triplets had been so invested and worried about the matter, Jean felt that they were veryheartwarming and hilarious. So, he agreed. “Okay, I’ll do as you say.”
