Super Wife’s Three Babies

Chapter 1278

Chapter 1278 Eugene’s Confession

Jewel turned her head away in distress as she was unable to bear hearing such words. She had learned about Mason’s death from Alex’s subordinates.

She was worried that Olivia would be utterly overwhelmed by guilt. That was why she had rushed over in a hurry.

However, she didn’t expect Olivia to become so agitated that she fainted.

She thought the child already knew the truth, but now seeing his hopeful expression, it was clear that he wasn’t in the know.

Alex’s hand lightly patted Jewel’s shoulder as a gesture of comfort.

For a while, everyone fell into silence, not knowing how to console Blake. Perhaps it was because they couldn’t bear to see the hopeful light in his eyes dim.

The explanation Eugene made up was already something the child could barely accept, let alone such a cruel truth.

Mason died because of them! This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

Nonetheless, Hector didn’t seem to be worried about this matter. He didn’t seem to be listening to their conversation at all. Instead, he was just staring absent-mindedly at a certain spot.

After a while, he suddenly stood up and said, “Eugene, come with me.”

Eugene glanced at Hector, who had already walked away, and instructed Jewel and Alex, “Stay here with Blake.” Then, he quickly followed Hector.

Hector walked until he found a secluded place before stopping.

Eugene also stopped while looking at him with suspicion. “Mr. Gedding, is there anything you need?”

Hector inhaled deeply and he did not look at Eugene as he asked abruptly, “You’ve known for a long time, haven’t you?”

Eugene was momentarily stunned by his question. What?

Fortunately, he was quick-witted, and immediately retorted, “Are you talking about the matter with the three children?”

Hector looked at him in silence.

Eugene nodded. “I’ve known about it, but Olivia was afraid that it would upset you, so we didn’t say anything.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he clearly heard Hector inhale sharply.

Apparently, although Hector had suspicions since he hadn’t heard the truth in person, he had always held onto a glimmer of hope.

Hector seemed to be overwhelmed with mixed emotions, unsure whether he was more angry or fearful.

After a while, he sneered. “What were you planning to do if I didn’t agree?”

Eugene looked at him with a serious and sincere gaze. “You won’t disagree. You love them dearly, and you know they will be better and safer with their biological parents. You’re just unable to accept it emotionally for now.”

Hector was caught off guard by his words and glared at Eugene fiercely. It would be a lie to say he wasn’t angry. These were children he had raised for many years, and suddenly, they were going to be taken away one day. How could he accept such a notion?

He could understand and empathize if he wasn’t involved. He knew that they would be better off with their biological parents, and he understood all of this.

Nevertheless, he wasn’t a machine. He had flesh and blood and thoughts of his own. He genuinely couldn’t find it in himself to accept this!

He closed his eyes as he felt a sense of resignation well up in his heart and sighed wearily. “I really didn’t expect that in such a big world, you and Olivia would end up together like this.”

Eugene couldn’t help but gulp nervously. “Perhaps this is fate, Mr. Gedding. I know you’re reluctant and worried. Your feelings for them are deeper than ours as their biological parents. Although they call us ‘Daddy’ and ‘Mommy,’ they were brought into this world by you as their grandfather. Not only do the three children have familial feelings for you, but Olivia and I are also sincerely grateful to you.”

Hector glanced at him and muttered in displeasure, “I always thought they called you two ‘Daddy’ and ‘Mommy’ because they recognized Olivia as their godmother. It turns out I was the only one kept in the dark.”

Eugene immediately tried to divert his attention, saying, “Mr. Parsons only knows that they are my children. He doesn’t know they’re Olivia’s children. Mr. Gedding, Olivia and I can empathize with you. We don’t want to make it difficult for you. If the children stay with you, we would also be unwilling to let them go. We just want to minimize any harm that could fall on the children. That way we could go through this gradually and become a family over time.”

Hector merely snorted with displeasure. “If I had known, I wouldn’t have used your genes.
