Chapter 338 - Not twins but triplets
Enrick reached the outer gates of the huge mansion which is his belongs to his big brother. It is highly guarded with both humans and tech. Earlier they even used to use specially trained dogs, but his sister in law has a fear of dogs so from that day no dog has even entered the mansion gates.
He sighed and went inside…
"Uncle Butler, did young Madam had her dinner" he asked.
And as expected she denied to even touch her food. Sighing again he took her dinner and went upstairs to her room.
Danielle is sitting on the recliner and is engrossed in reading her novel, which was of course written by her itself. She is named similar to Daniel because he himself insisted. He treated her like his own sister and took extreme care of her.
She is missing him but her hubby requested her to not contact him till Sarah is made to loose her memory .
"Elle, Why didn't you eat yet." Rick asked her and sat beside her.
"I am not hungry Rick. I am missing your brother" she pouted.
"I know but still, you are not recovered yet. So, please eat something. Otherwise your boyfriend will kill me" Rick pleaded her.
"I will save you. Don't worry about that and tell me about Sarah. He told me that the serum is already prepared, I don't want my brother to have a heart break. I am worried Rick" she worried.
"Hey…hey, stop it right over there. If you start crying again, the whole mansion is going to shiver. Buy I will assure you that Sarah and Daniel will be together forever. Now please eat" He pleaded again.
"Fine. Feed me" she opened her mouth and pointed.
"Why did I get childish sisters. I just fed that brat and came. Anyway I don't have other choice" he winked and started feeding her.
"What is your plan to inject the serum into Sarah" she started firing questions.
"Ah.. Your father is helping his future son in law to save his 'son's' heart. So by the end of this weddings she will be free of struggles" Enrick said.
"Brother Rick, Sister Elle…" a twelve years old boy sprinted towards them.
"Jasper.. sweety" Danielle hugged him as soon as he climbed into her lap.
Rick sighed softly. This little guy is his big brother's competitor in getting Elle attention. They fight too often for her but this little brat was always the winner.
"Little master. Am I visible?" Rick asked bowing his head.
"No dear servant. I can't see anyone here except my beautiful sister in law. Who are you anyway?" Jasper asked in cute voice.
"Oh my baby…" Danielle kissed his cheeks and hugged him tightly.
Rick sighed and smiled. He fished out a big bag of chocolates and started to unwrap it. "Elle, as there is no one here I will eat them by myself" he smirked.
Jasper pouted and crawled into Rick's lap. "Brother Rick. I missed your chocolates so much you know…" he snatched the chocolate and started eating.

Maria came searching for Jeff when she found him sipping bear in his suite. He looked shaken up and tipsy.
"Jeff, are you mad. If grandfather see you like this you will be grounded again." She shouted angrily and snatched away the bottle from him.
"Mom. I will ask you something. Will you promise me the truthful answer" he asked seriously.
"I will Jeff. Please don't ever do this again" she sat beside him and took his hands into her own.
"What is the relation between me and Jean" he asked as his voice choked a little.
As soon as Maria listened to his words he heart started thumping erratically. Did he listen to her conversation with Thomas…
Do he knows the truth now…
"Mom, I have listened to your conversation with that person whom I recognized as one of your best friend in that group photo. But I wanted to listen the truth from your mouth" he pleaded her.
Maria closed her eyes and took a long breathe. Her hands shivered in his big warm hands. She couldn't muster up her energy to talk about this.
What if he blame her for separating him from his mother and sister….what should she do…
"Jean is your sister. You are elder than her just by one minute" Maria teared up as soon as she remembered it .
Jeff pursed his lips and controlled his tears. He is happy that Jean is his real sister. He has been craving for a siblings love but at the same time he felt sad that they didn't have a childhood together.
"My birth mother.." he trailed off. Afraid that this topic would hurt his 'mom'.
Maria understood his intentions and smiled sadly. No matter what she is his mother who raised him and she is sure he will not hate her.
"Sophia, my twin sister is your real mother Rick. She loved you so much till her death. She has her own reasons why she gave you to me. Don't hate her…please" Maria pleaded him.
"So, I am not your illegitimate child. You lied to grandparents. But why?"
"Why did you tolerate all his scolding's over nothing. Why did you sacrifice so much.."Jeff asked her crying.
"I…" Maria couldn't utter a word. She didn't know how to explain it to him.
"Why did my mother do this. Why did you hide the fact that my mother didn't die twenty five years back." Jeff asked her.
"It is to protect her children in her w.o.m.b. She wanted you to have a peaceful life" Maria said and wiped away his tears.
"Peaceful life Huh….Wow!!! I really had a peaceful life but not a happy life. How did she think I would be happy if I was separated from them." Jeff leaned into his mother's embrace and cried.
"Jeff, At first she wanted to give both of you a happy life. She didn't wanted to separate you. But due to some circ.u.mstances she later opted to give a secured life rather than keeping you both all to herself." Maria sobbed.
"Protected life. What does that mean" He frowned.
"Yes, protected life. Because you are not twins but triplets. Your elder brother was killed the next day you are born. Which mother could bear to loose another child" Maria cried as she clutched her chest.
"Please tell me what happened mom" Jeff urged her as tears started rolling in his eyes.
"They named him Jasper. Unlike you and your sister he was born with a weak heart" Maria started…
