Theo ran to the entrance and was about to throw himself into Mueve's arms. However, he stopped abruptly when he saw Will beside Marve.

A line of words in bold capitals, "It is over. Help floated over Theo's head.

Maeve widened her eyes in amazement as she looked at that child and then at this child, blank arid dazed.

'How... how could there be two Theos? thought Maeve.

Will did not expect things to turn out that way. His heart was racing. He looked at Maeve nervously with pursed lips.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

is Mommy frightened? Could she not accept having a baby like me? If I could bring my savings and grow up without spending a single cent of Mommy's, would Moruny accept me thought Will

Maeve remained silent. Will and Theo were feeling uneasy.

Theo kept winking at Will, asking him to at least say something

Will was so nervous that he could not receive Theo's gaze. He grew more and more lost in the long silence of Maeve.

Then Will was suddenly pulled into Maeve's arms.

Maeve felt utterly different from before as if she were holding on to a treasure that had been lost, with a hint of strength but fear of hurting Will.

You... you

are..." Maeve's voice choked slightly. She could not even finish her sentence.

Will could feel Maeve's trembling in her arms.

That trembling feeling spread from Marve's body to Will's heart, making him feel a little at a loss and inexplicably warm "Mom, I'm your other child." Will's nose tip twitched slightly, and he introduced himself to her in a low and formal voice. "My name is William Mcdaniel, and my nickname is Will. This is the fourth year you have brought me into the world." Will's last sentence made Maeve's eyes tear up uncontrollably.

'He is my child. He is really my child, whom I thought had died a long time ago and parted in a hurry before I could take another look at him thought Maeve.

Maeve hugged Will and sobbed. She used to have endless words to say to the ultrasound photo at night, but now she was hugging him and could not even say a word.

It turned out one could not hold back one's tears when overjoyed.

Will was at a loss and wanted to wipe Maeve's tears, but he realized the handkerchief was not with him, so he hurriedly replaced it with his sleeve.

He looked clumsy and disliked the little prince he used to be.

"Mom, don't cry." Will tried to hold back the tears in his eyes and comforted Maeve. He looked at Theo in a panic, wanting him to help persuade Maeve.

However, it was fine if Will didn't look, but once he did, he was doomed.

Theo was crying even more miserably than Maeve. He sobbed non-stop.

Will could not hold it imranymore. He buried his face in Maeve's neck and hugged her as he whimpered softly.

Originally, only Maeve cried.

Now, the three of them cried together. It was a triple cry of the parent-children gro

Especially when Theo cried, his voice would automatically turn into a few tunes, sounding like he was crying and laughing simultaneously. He was even more emotional than singing a play. Maeve's emotions were interrupted by Theo. Her tears finally stopped, but her eyes were extremely red.

She grabbed Theo's face and asked him, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "If your cry, cry, Why are you adding drama to yourself?"

Theo sniffed. "Mommy, I'm afraid your eyes are swollen from crying and you won't look pretty. I'm just cheering you up."

Will looked up and corrected Theo seriously. "Mommy always is beautiful."

"Wow, you've even learned how to flatter now!" said Theo.

Tm only telling the truth," said Will.

Maeve could not help but laugh. She hugged them in each of her arms, feeling an unreal sense of satisfaction

It was as if as long as she let go, everything in front of her would disappear.

The mother and son were connected. Will and Theo could feel Maeve's fear.

Theo tactfully pecked on Maeve's cheek. 'Mommy, I love you!"

As he spoke, he threw Will a look: What are you waiting for?

Will clenched his fists and mustered his courage to kiss Maeve on the cheek. "Mom Mom, I love you, too!"

His little face flushed. He was the one who took the initiative to kiss Maeve but was as shy as a girl who had been robbed.

Maeve burst out laughing and kissed each of their foreheads. "I love you, too."

"By the way, Mommy, I have an important question!" Theo raised his small hand with a rather serious expression. Maeve looked at him curiously. "What do you want to ask?"

"Who's older between me and Will?"

Theo's words changed the aura between Will and him. They looked at each other with sparks flying in their eyes. -

No matter how good their relationship was, they still had to compete when it was the issue of brotherhood.

It couldn't be helped. Everyone wanted to be the big brother.

Theo was confident. "It must be me! I'm clever, considerate, obedient, and omnipotent in housework. I also have a heart that loves and protects my younger brother!"

"You're suspected of false advertising. Your culinary skills are zero. You can't be considered omnipotent" Will refused to back down from Theo's boast. "The big brother should let someone more stable be the one. Only then can we promote the harmony of family relationships and sustainable development..

Maeve felt a little surreal

08.07 Sat, Nov 2

Those who knew it knew who they were running for to be the big brother.

Those who didn't know better would think they were running for president.

Each of them was more eloquent and reasonable.

Will and Theo exchanged blows for a few rounds without a winner. They looked at Marve and said, "Mommy, what do you think?"

Marve

aeve was silent and thought, I'm just going to watch the show

"Well, Theo. I know you want to be the big brother. This is good. Let's keep it that way," Maeve said tactfully. "Well, Will was indeed born a few minutes before you. Look..."

Theo seemed to have been struck by a bolt from the blue. The words "Impossible" were written all over his cute little face.

'How could I be the younger brother? I don't want to be the younger brother! How embarrassing it would be for the boys in kindergarten to find out! thought Theo,

The corners of Theo's mouth quirked up demurely. "I'll be good to you, little brother," he said earnestly to Theo.

Theo pouted gloomily. "If I had run faster back then, you would have to call me big brother."

Theo had staked his life's worth of dignity for borning a few minutes later! Maere's smile deepened as she looked at Theo's small, frustrated expression She suddenly felt something was wrong as she smiled.

"Darling, did you know Will long ago? Why didn't I hear you mention it before?"

Theo and Will looked at each other and thought, 'Oh, no, Mommy found out so quickly!'

"Mommy, it's a long story. Listen to my excuses... Theo looked at Maeve and blinked innocently.

Maeve snorted. "I want to hear how you want to defend."

I can tell they have known each other for a long time by the way they are so close. They've been keeping it from me!" thought Maeve.

As the big brother, Will stood up decisively. "Mom, Theo and I decided not to tell you after discussing it. We wanted to wait until you and Dad got back together before we had a chance to tell you."
