Chapter 680: Your Mommy Gave Birth to Triplets
CHAPTER 680: CHAPTER 680: YOUR MOMMY GAVE BIRTH TO TRIPLETS
Serena was sleeping, and when Hayden Crawford shook her like this, she pouted her red lips in dissatisfaction, "Mmm, go away, don’t disturb my sleep!"
"Serena Sterling, how can you still feel like sleeping at a time like this? Get up and explain clearly, what do you mean Pip is my son?" Hayden Crawford felt like he was going crazy; he had never thought, never dared to think about it.
"Pip..." Serena was still murmuring in her sleep, "Pip, you need to take care of... Stella, you as the brother must take good care of Mimi..."
Stella?
Hayden suddenly recalled the little pink and tender dumpling he encountered at the airport that day, a porcelain-like little girl who was simply a miniature version of Serena Sterling. At that time, she had melted his heart.
He knew Stella was Pip’s sister; they were fraternal twins.
Stella, Pip, and his son Caden Crawford were the same age, all three years old. Could it be...
Hayden quickly thought of a possibility, and his deep narrow eyes were instantly filled with turmoil. He realized he might have been living in a deception his whole life!
Tonight he discovered an earth-shattering secret!
...
Little Caden Crawford was brought back to the villa, "Young master, sir is waiting for you in the study."
"I know." Little Caden Crawford went upstairs and pushed open the door to the study.
It was already late at night, and outside the lights were off, with the whole world quiet, but the study was brightly lit. Hayden Crawford hadn’t slept; he was sitting in his office chair, a cigarette burning between his long fingers, enveloped in smoke.
The ashtray was already filled with cigarette butts, clearly showing that Hayden had been smoking here for a long time. The study was filled with a choking smell of smoke.
Little Caden Crawford walked up and quietly opened a window to let fresh air in from outside. He looked at Hayden, "Dad, what’s wrong with you?"
Little Caden Crawford had been urgently brought back because he received an order from Hayden.
Little Caden Crawford and Hayden had depended on each other for support for three years. It was the first time he had seen such a father, one now so deep and cold that it was frightening.
Amidst the swirling smoke, Hayden had furrowed his handsome brows into a tight "川" character. He flicked the ash into the ashtray, then spoke, "I need you to find Pip for me as fast as you can."
"This Pip is a top-notch computer hacker. I’ve had a few encounters with him, and we’re evenly matched. He’s very cunning and good at counter-tracking, so it will take some time to find him." Little Caden Crawford said objectively.
At this point, Hayden took out a photo and slid it in front of Little Caden Crawford.
Little Caden Crawford looked down, his eyes lighting up. The photo was of little Stella, her delicate little face identical to Serena Sterling’s, just like a little pink and tender dumpling.
Perhaps due to a mutual feeling, Little Caden Crawford almost immediately in his heart concluded that this was his mommy’s daughter. "Dad, what does this mean—didn’t mommy only give birth to Pip? She also gave birth to little Mimi? Did she have twins?"
"Heh," Hayden took a long drag on his cigarette and then exhaled the smoke, giving Little Caden Crawford a glance. "Why not say your mommy had... triplets?"
Triplets?
Both Hayden and Little Caden Crawford were geniuses with high IQs, never wasting words on each other. Upon hearing the word "triplets," something quickly flashed across Little Caden Crawford’s bright eyes.
"Dad, that joke isn’t funny at all!"
Hayden withdrew his gaze and said faintly, "Indeed, it’s not funny."
Father and son both fell silent, the atmosphere in the study oppressive and heavy.
After a while, Hayden spoke in a low voice, "You just need to keep Pip preoccupied for me, making him unable to attend to anything else."
"Dad, you’re going to capture this little Mimi?" Little Caden Crawford quickly realized Hayden’s plan.
Hayden nodded, "Exactly, once we capture Stella, Pip will naturally show up, and the truth will surface."
Little Caden Crawford agreed, and the father and son reached an understanding. "Okay."
...
Stella had already started attending kindergarten. With her high beauty, sweet personality, kindness, and politeness, she was a bona fide little princess, becoming the kindergarten’s superstar, beloved by everyone.
However, today an unexpected event occurred.
A pretty little girl, with one hand on her hip and the other pointing at the delicate little Stella, shouted, "I’ve never seen your dad drop you off. Do you even have a dad? My mommy told me that kids without dads are little bastards, and nobody likes bastards."
The girl who insulted Stella was named Tanya. Before Stella came to this kindergarten, Tanya was the most popular little princess, but once Stella arrived, she quickly stole Tanya’s spotlight, turning her into a mere backdrop.
Not only that, but Tanya’s dad had once come to pick her up from school and happened to meet Serena Sterling. Serena’s stunning beauty had left Tanya’s dad speechless and mesmerized.
Since then, Tanya’s dad had become infatuated with Serena, showing up every day to pick Tanya up, just to catch a glimpse of Serena.
This comparison led to hurt, and Tanya’s dad began to despise Tanya’s mom, calling her a hag who didn’t take care of her figure, embarrassing him when they were out.
Tanya had caught her mom crying in secret many times.
Tanya deeply disliked Stella and her mom, feeling that Stella not only stole her spotlight but her mom also disrupted her parents’ relationship. Her mom said Serena was a vixen, seducing other people’s husbands.
Tanya also noticed Stella’s dad never came around, heard Serena was never married, and that she had a child out of wedlock, making Stella a little bastard who seduces men every day.
"Stella, I heard you don’t have a dad, haha, you’re really pathetic. Although you lack one dad, your mom has many uncles, right? Those uncles are all your mom’s lovers, and she gets you a new dad every day!"
Stella was naturally soft and protected meticulously from a young age, never insulted in such a nasty manner, especially not about her beloved mom.
Stella’s little face turned cold as she stepped forward, glaring at Tanya, "I have a dad, and my mom is not a vixen!"
Tanya immediately reached out and pushed Stella.
But Stella wasn’t one to be trifled with, and she promptly engaged Tanya in a scuffle.
