Chapter 725: Chapter 725: I Have Triplets (15)
Steve feigned an expression as if being scolded by Madam Burton, admitting his mistake while emphasizing the three children again, “I know I was wrong, but thankfully all four of them are safe, no major harm done. Although they were born 40 days premature, all three children are very healthy. The doctor said they can all be discharged with their mother in a few days.”
As he reached this point, Steve quickly noticed the corners of his eyes on his mother’s face.
As expected, the moment he deliberately emphasized the triplets, his mother no longer cared about Ruby and his previous affairs, and immediately said happily, “That’s right, as long as they’re safe, that’s all that matters!”
Madam Burton then asked again, “Where will they stay after being discharged? Have the nannies and caregivers been arranged? We need to hire more caregivers for the three children. Sigh, caregivers are all outsiders, so they can’t be left unattended. How about this, Steve, when Ruby is discharged, bring her and the kids directly to our home. Mom has time, and mom will take care of her and the kids.”
Steve had been waiting all night for his mother to utter these words. He was filled with joy at his success, but on the surface, he pretended to be troubled, “Mom, didn’t I just say that Ruby and I haven’t gotten married yet? She and the kids aren’t part of The Burtons, it’s not right for them to live in our house. Besides…” Steve raised his head and looked at his father, “Dad just said, what I did was disreputable, how are we supposed to explain this to the Gregorys…”
“Yes, that’s true too.” After Steve said this, Madam Burton nodded, thought for a while, and said without hesitation, “How about this, your father and I will go to the Gregorys, apologize and make amends, and get you two married quickly.”
After saying this, Madam Burton looked at Steve’s father.
At this point, Steve didn’t forget to take the opportunity to add, “And the 100-days celebration for the three children should be celebrated.”
Steve’s father felt a little embarrassed when he thought about what his son had done, but in the end, considering his three grandchildren and his son’s lifelong happiness, he nodded and coldly said to his wife, “You find a time and go buy some nice presents.”
After that, Steve’s father couldn’t help but glare fiercely at his son, turned to everyone at the table and said, “Alright, it’s getting late. Let’s all go and rest.”
He then stood up and left the meeting room without looking back.
Others followed suit, standing up to leave the room. Before they left, they congratulated Steve.
With his objective achieved, Steve gleefully accepted everyone’s congratulations.
He could have easily mentioned Maya’s meddling, but he didn’t, because even though she was the main cause of all this, Ruby had already been engaged to another man, which could have caused some discontent among The Burtons’ elders. However, if he mentioned that he had given Ruby the contraception pill, everyone in the Burton family would feel guilty towards Ruby. Considering the three children they had together, no one would have any intention to care about Ruby’s past engagement, they would only want to make it up to her and the Gregorys.
PS Steve’s intentions are so good~~ There are two more chapters, like these three chapters, they will be posted together when they are finished~
