SWNOVELS Chapter 1283
Chapter 1283
Neera nodded in agreement, exchanged a few words with her aunt, and then went upstairs to pack her things.
The moment she got in the car and saw the triplets sitting in the back seat, she was completely surprised. “Why are you guys
wearing sunglasses in the car? And where did you get these sunglasses from?”
The triplets, each wearing a large pair of sunglasses, had their faces mostly covered by the glasses.
They looked quite silly.
In response to her surprise, the triplets acted nonchalantly.
Adjusting his sunglasses, Sammy calmly said, “Uncle Edward gave these to us. The sunlight at the beach is too strong, so we
wear them to protect our eyes.”
Harvey remained still and simply hummed, indicating his agreement.
Penny lowered her head slightly, pushing her sunglasses down to reveal her sparkling eyes. “Mommy, don’t we look cool? We
look cool, right?”
Neera was speechless. What is happening? When did my adorable little ones become só peculiar? They’re so unique! Isn’t
Edward busy running his company? How did he find the time to send the triplets gifts all the way across the ocean?
She rubbed her forehead, feeling frustrated. “Have you been in contact with Uncle Edward? How did he end up buying such
large sunglasses for you?”
Penny grinned and replied, “Uncle Edward went to Essley to visit our great-grandparents, as well as Grandaunt Nadine and
Granduncle Jeremiah.”
Sammy chimed in, “Uncle Edward took us out to play, bought us many gifts, and treated us to lots of delicious food. We thought
he looked really cool with his big sunglasses on, so we wanted to be just like him!”
Harvey hummed.
Neera didn’t know how to react. It seems the triplets are good at imitating others. With so many people around them spoiling and
pampering them, they seem to be getting naughtier every day.
She sighed helplessly, taking off Penny’s oversized sunglasses. “Alright. If you like wearing them, you can put them on when we
get to the beach. Wearing sunglasses in the car is just too strange.”
The triplets were still excited, but they obediently took off the sunglasses. They immediately started chatting about something
else.
Neera turned her head and looked at the man in the driver’s seat with a hint of helplessness. “These little rascals are so cunning.
In the past, it was just Aunt Adriana and me, so they always behaved. Now, with no worries and so many people indulging them,
I’m afraid they might become uncontrollable soon.”
Jean held the steering wheel and laughed indulgently. “So what? As long as they’re happy, they should do whatever they want.”
Neera was speechless. “You’re their father. How can you spoil them like this? Aren’t you afraid they’ll develop bad habits? It will
be difficult to manage them then.”
Jean didn’t mind. His handsome face was filled with tenderness and indulgence. “They’re still children, being mischievous is part
of their nature. It’s the age to have fun, so they should enjoy it. Besides, they are sensible and have a wonderful mother like you
to educate and set an example for them. The elders around them are all outstanding individuals. How could they possibly go
astray? There’s no need to worry unnecessarily, and furthermore...”
He paused for a moment, then continued in a gentle voice, “Before, they were so well-behaved that they restrained themselves. I
wasn’t there with them, and I missed those five years. Now, I have a chance to make up for it. How could I bear to let them
restrain themselves again? From now on, with you, with me, with a complete family, they can be as willful and mischievous as
they want. My children should be the happiest and most joyful children in the world.”
After hearing that, Neera was deeply moved yet somewhat surprised. “I thought you wanted them to stand out, to be as
exceptional as you are.”
Jean smiled. “All those things never mattered to me, including the so-called family business inheritance. It’s not important. What
matters most is the children’s own desires. If they enjoy doing business, then I will personally guide them and help them reach
great heights in that field. If they have no interest in business and have other passions and paths they wish to pursue, then I will
wholeheartedly support them and assist them as much as I can. My expectations are not high, as long as they can live without
worries, follow their hearts, and lead a joyful life, that’s enough for me.”
That was his vision and also what Neera hoped for.
For a moment, Neera was deeply moved. “Who would have thought you would be such a loving father?”
Jean chuckled. “What’s the matter? Have I always seemed mean?”
“Well, that’s not the case.” As she spoke, a sudden thought crossed her mind. After a moment of hesitation, she decided to ask,
“Hey... Actually, I’ve always had a question. If it were six years ago, and the man that night wasn’t you, and the triplets weren’t
your own children, would you still feel the same way?”
The triplets behind listened intently, their ears perked up in anticipation. Everyone was waiting for his answer.
Jean slightly turned the steering wheel and glanced at her. “Are you doubting me? Don’t you trust me?”
Neera quickly shook her head. “That’s not it. I’m just curious. After all, people often care a lot about their family and
bloodline...”
“I do care, but not to such an extent. Blood ties are indeed a bond, but they can’t determine everything,” Jean replied.
