Olivia sighed in response. âWhat excuse can you use if we only visit her two weeks later?â âMy girlfriend wants to see her too but canât leave because of work, so we couldnât come until now, Eugene answered. âIsnât this good enough?â
To that, Olivia nodded and said, âIâll check with Director Norris and see if we can shoot all of my scenes at once. Iâll go with you once Iâm done.â
Having an inexplicable feeling that he was given a second chance at life, Eugene hugged her tightly, relieved that she was willing to trust him. Thank goodness! I nearly lost her.
âOkay,â Eugene answered huskily before the couple returned to Haven Lounge, where Jewel and the kids observed their emotions. Seeing that the two were doing okay, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief..
âCarter, you guys at least know where youâre from, right?â Olivia directed her gaze toward the triplets after returning to her seat.
âWeâre Mastarian, Carter replied. Hearing this, Olivia felt relieved. Theyâre not from Nambahd. Thatâs a sign that their mother isnât Azalea, right?
âBut weâve performed in many places,â Blake added, prompting Olivia to ask, âDo you guys know Professor Geddingâs full name, then?â
The boys shook their heads in response. âWe call him Grandpa while everyone else calls him Professor Gedding.â Still unsatisfied, Olivia pressed for more answers. âAre there any other people in your family?â
âWe have uncles and aunts, Carter explained. âMany, many of them.â At that, Olivia and Eugene looked at each other. They couldnât get any useful information out of the boys! Just then, North spoke up. âGive me the address of where you used to live.â
âItâs not that we donât want to tell you, North, but Grandpa forbids us from telling anyone. Either way, itâs also very secluded. You guys wonât be able to find it even if I tell you,â Carter explained.
âAnd how do you know I canât locate it?â North argued, unconvinced. âIâm not lying. Not even a cunning rabbit will be able to locate it,â Carter replied gravely, rendering North at a loss for words. He couldnât believe Carter proclaimed his failure when there were only so many places he couldnât hack into.
âIâm sure you know that your daddy is also my daddy, so I wonât harm you. Give me the address. Iâll try to locate it.â
At that, Carter gazed at his brothers and shook his head. âIâm sorry, North. We promised Grandpa we wouldnât reveal it, or both Grandpa and us would be in danger.â
âForget it, North. No need to give them a hard. time.â Olivia stepped in, then turned to the triplets. âDid you boys come out this time to look for your father?â
In response, the triplets gazed at each other and exchanged their thoughts before Carter spoke on behalf of the three of them.
âYes. But we donât like this Daddy, so weâve decided not to acknowledge him as our father. Youâre all we need.â
While Eugene was at a loss for words, Olivia shifted her gaze to the man and said teasingly, âSome father you are.â
At that, Eugene explained to the triplets, âI treated you guys terribly that day because I thought a bad guy sent you over to mess with. me. It wasnât directed at you. Will you guys let me make it up to you?â
However, the triplets shook their heads after exchanging glances with each other. A chuckle escaped Olivia, and she suggested, âHow about this? You guys can decide whether to acknowledge Eugene as your father after heâs found your mother.â
With that, the triplets went to a corner and deliberated quietly. âCan he really help us find Mommy?â Blake questioned, and Carter argued, âBut isnât our mommy dead?â
âGrandpa also said our daddyâs dead, but look at him sitting there, alive and kicking, Blake argued. Just then, Terry, who had been silent all this while, spoke up. âWe already have our godmother, though.â
Blake and Carter glanced at each other in response. âYouâre right! Would Godmother think we donât like her anymore if we find Mommy?â âAlso, thereâs a chance that Mommy will fight Godmother over Daddy.â
With that, the three nodded at each other and returned to their seats when Carter spoke on behalf of him and his brothers again.
âWeâve decided not to look for our mommy anymore. Youâre all we need, Godmother!â
Olivia was shocked and flattered. She couldnât believe she meant so much to them that they would choose her over their birth mother.
