Triplets?
Nora wanted to unconsciously answer, âDo I look like an animal to you?â.
But as she was about to do so, she suddenly remembered that, due to obstructed labor, she had fainted at one point during labor.
From her point of view, she had only fainted for a while. She had regained consciousness after a brief faint. The doctor then told her to keep pushing.
She then gave birth to a baby boy, who was taken from her by Henry. When she got off the delivery bed to retrieve her son, her belly kicked back into action, after which she gave birth to Cherry.
Justinâs assumption seemed too strange to her, so she couldnât help but respond, âItâs not impossible, but the chances are very low.â
Even she hadnât noticed three different heartbeats in her belly during her pregnancy.
Justinâs voice was full of joy. âReally? Then Iâll have the baby sent back. When heâs here, letâs do a DNA test.â
Seeing that he was so eager about it, Nora didnât object either. âOkay.â
Deep in her heart, however, she didnât hold out much hope.
However, she understood how Justin felt. Even she would find it rather distasteful if he had a child with another woman, not to mention Justin himself.
Besides, she wasnât such a saint as to treat Ruthâs child as her own.
If Ruth and Justin really did have a child together, could she and Justin go on as they were now? She couldnât guarantee it, couldnât imagine it.
She was too lazy to deal with overly complicated relationships.
After hanging up the phone, Nora returned to the bedroom.
Cherry was playing while Pete studied. Mia was sitting next to Pete, her chin resting on her hand as she watched him while he nodded.
Pete sighed helplessly. âMia, why donât you climb up on the bed and take a nap for a while.â
Mia sat up immediately. âIâm not sleepy, Pete!â
Pete: ââ¦â
Cherry looked at her. Though puzzled, she continued to play her game with her head down. As she played, she said, âPete, that boy is calling me again, should I answer it?â
âNo, you canât answer unless he apologizes to Mom!â
âOkie-Dokie!â In a soft, tender voice, Cherry replied, âIâll do what you say, Pete!â.
Pete was very pleased. However, he was very curious. âHow did you meet him?â
Cherry cocked her head to the side and replied, âI went to play with Princess Lucy once. You know how the Royal Family has a lot of rules and regulations, right? Princess Lucy was taking etiquette classes at the time, so out of boredom, I started playing with my phone. Then, someone nearby sent me a message. Without thinking too much about it, I texted him back and we chatted a bit. That guy is very strange. He only talks to me when itâs late at night, and the things he says are also very confusing. But he is very smart and has learned a lot of things on his own. Itâs been a long time since Iâve been in touch with him. If it wasnât for you forcing me to study, I wouldnât have remembered him either!â
Nora: â?â
She narrowed her eyes.
Princess Lucy was a good friend of Cherryâs in the UK. The girl often visited her, but since Nora needed to sleep, it was usually her aunt who took her.
If she had added him as a friend when she was at the palace, wouldnât that mean that the boy had been close to the palace? Or even that he lived in the palace itself?
Princess Lucy was part of the Royal Family of the U.K. Why would there be unrelated people in the palace?
So who exactly was this boy?
As she pondered, her phone rang again.
When she answered, Morrisâ voice came from the other end. âMiss Smith, Caleb Gray has successfully returned to the mysterious organization. He has said he will help us find the location of the mystery organizationâs headquarters in the near future.â
âAgreed.â
Nora replied indifferently.
Although she sounded indifferent, she had lowered her gaze coolly.
Her mother had been taken to the grave by the mysterious organization. She would definitely avenge her!
He asked, âHavenât they found any clues for all these years?â
Morris was silent for a while before he sighed and replied, âItâs very difficult for us to look for clues. First of all, itâs uncomfortable for us to do anything overseas. Secondly, they seem to be protected by very powerful peopleâ¦. Also, there are many places abroad that even Interpol canât reach.â
Nora understood.
Not all countries were like the United States. There were still many countries with monarchy. The United Kingdom was such a country.
It was as if there was a mysterious child hiding in Princess Lucyâs palace, but no one could get in to investigate!
As the two had nothing else to share, Nora hung up the phone.

Elsewhere.
Justin tapped the couch lightly with his finger.
He was pondering something with a frown.
Next to him, Lawrence felt like his boss had gone a little crazy.
He had just sent someone to California to investigate the person who turned in Miss Smithâs children back then. They were both waiting for news.
However, how was it possible that this child was the bossâs and Miss Smithâs? And why would her son end up in Ruthâs hands? Besides, he was in Truemanâs clutches?
These things were simply too complicated.
But wasnât it exactly as strange then?
Someone had called saying that his boss had a son and that he was about to die. When his boss went to the specified location, he had actually found Peteâ¦.
That wasnât all. Later, they met Cherry, and now, was Xander there too? Surely there wouldnât be a fourth, fifth and sixth child, would there? That would be too many children!
As I was thinking, agitated footsteps sounded outside the door.
Sean walked in. He looked at Justin and said quietly, âI found some information about that little clinic!â.
