Chapter 207 Call Him Daddy
Neera had indeed forgotten about it.
After what happened yesterday, part of her didnât want to go.
The triplets, however, were excited. All three of them had been looking forward to it for ages. She couldnât say
no.
After a brief silence, she decided to indulge their wishes. âIâm sorry. Mommyâs been so busy lately. I forgot about it.â
They were understanding and didnât seem to mind.
âThatâs okay. You work so hard for us, Mommy. Itâs normal to forget things sometimes!â
âYup! Weâre used to it. You donât have to say sorry, Mommy.â
âAll that matters is that we can all go out together and play!â
Neera found it amusing to watch each of them speaking in turn.
âAlright. Weâll go together. But all of you have to go to bed early tonight. We have to wake up early tomorrow.â
The triplets patted their chest. âDonât worry, Mommy. Weâll sleep early!â
The next day, Jean came over early from next door to pick Neera and the triplets up.
Any lingering resentment in her heart vanished in an instant when she saw how he kept his promise.
She wasnât a petty person and rarely held grudges. She greeted him warmly.
âGood morning. Have you had breakfast? You should join us if you havenât. We can head out after.â
Jean observed her for a moment. He nodded after seeing how calm she was. âSure.â
With the addition of lan, the group, now consisting of six people, had breakfast before setting off.
lan was in charge of driving, while Neera, Jean, and the three children sat in the back.
The triplets could barely contain their excitement.
âMommy, Uncle Jean, we made a lot of plans yesterday!â
Jean raised a brow in response. âOh? I suppose weâll be following your lead when we get there.â
Sammy immediately puffed out his chest with pride. âLeave it to us!â
Penny agreed with a grin. She couldnât wait to share the plan.
âWhen we get there, weâre first going to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. Thereâs going to be a lot of people there. So, letâs go early so we donât have to wait in line for a long time! Then, we can go to Jura ssic World and the Transformers Metrobase. Weâll go to WaterWorld in the afternoonâ¦â
Neera listened with amusement. âYou three must have planned this out well in advance to know so much.â
She had been so busy recently, it was rare for her to be out with the triplets.
She wasnât going to spoil their fun when they were so excited,
This was, however, an entirely new experience for Jean.
He had never been interested in amusement parks. He had only agreed to come so as not to disappoint the
children.
Yet for some reason, he felt a hint of an unfamiliar emotion when seeing the children so animated and excited
lan was sent to get tickets when they arrived at Universal Studios. The remaining five waited.
Neera was worried about losing the triplets in the dense crowd, so she instructed them to hold hands.
The triplets did as they were told, Penny held Jeanâs hand while Harvey held onto Neera,
The striking appearance of the two adults and three children together quickly attracted numerous gazes and discussions from onlookers,
âWow, that family of five is so good-looking!â
âIâm so jealous. Those are some prime genes. The man is handsome, the woman is beautiful, and their children are gorgeous too. Itâs unbelievable. Even their kids are so attractive. Iâm so envious.â
âWho wouldnât beâ¦?â
The triplets were delighted to hear the praise and couldnât help but wink at their mother.
âDid you hear that, Mommy? They think weâre a family of five!â
A family of five ⦠They had been called that the last time they went to see the fireworks together.
It was strange. Was there such a strong resemblance among them?
Neera couldnât help but stare at Jean.
Jean coincidentally also happened to look at her. In that brief moment of eye contact, she felt a subtle shift in the atmosphere, almost like a charge in the air.
She hastily shifted her gaze away and gently tapped Sammy on the head.
âThatâs because those people donât know the situation. Enough with the nonsense.â
Sammy spoke up in confidence, âWhatâs wrong with that? Iâll also call Uncle Jean âDaddyâ if he lets us!â
âMe too!â
Both Penny and Harvey raised their hands.
Neera was amused by her three little mischief-makers. With hands on her hips, she was about to deliver a loving educational lecture when Mo Yan returned with the tickets, cutting her off.

She helplessly said to Jean, âIâm sorry. The kids say anything that comes to their heads. Donât take it to heart.â
Jean didnât mind. âYou are my wife now. Calling us a family of five isnât exactly wrong.â
With that said, he followed the triplets into the theme park.
