“Yes,” Charlotte said, nodding her head. Truthfully, she continued, “Sorry, Mrs. Berry. I should’ve told you
earlier.”
Mrs. Berry sighed deeply. “Everyone makes their own choices in life, especially when it comes to
romantic relationships. If you like him, you should be with him—I can have no opinion on that. I hope he’ll
be good to you and the kids. However…”
Here, Mrs. Berry paused, looking rather uncertain.
“Mrs. Berry, what are you trying to say?” Charlotte asked.
“Miss, I’m just worried that an important family like the Nacht family might not be able to accept your
children,” Mrs. Berry said, frowning. “Doesn’t your boyfriend worry about that?”
“Of course not…” Charlotte said, completely sure of herself, “because the children are his.”
“What?” Mrs. Berry looked at her, stunned silly. “Are you kidding me? You are, aren’t you? Isn’t the father
of the triplets that—that gigolo from Sultry Night…”
“Yes, that’s him,” Charlotte couldn’t believe these words were coming out of her mouth, but she told Mrs.
Berry the truth anyway. “Four years ago, I got set up by Luna, but things turned out like this…”
After she finished telling the whole story to Mrs. Berry, Charlotte continued, “Actually, I knew who he was
from the start. But I thought he was irresponsible and unfit to be a father. In addition, I was scared of the
Nacht family’s power—what if they took my children and drove me away? That’s why I never told him
that he was the father of the triplets.”
“However, when I got into the accident, he conducted a DNA test using Robbie’s tissues. When he found
out the truth, he did so many things for the children. I felt very touched…”
“I see,” Mrs. Berry replied, sighing in disappointment. “No wonder our family keeps having all sorts of
dealings with the Nacht family. For a period of time, I wondered if they were flies that wouldn’t go away!
So the Nacht guy had arranged for all of this to happen…”
“Truth be told, I had lots of worries in the past,” Charlotte said, smiling bitterly. “I even wanted to uproot
the family from H City after you and Jamie recovered. We could’ve found a new place to leave. However,
so many things happened…perhaps this is meant to be.”
“Well, since both of you have already settled this matter, don’t think too much about it anymore,” Mrs.
Berry said reassuringly. “The children didn’t like him much before, right? What about now?”
“They’ve been getting along splendidly. There’s been a huge improvement, I believe.” Charlotte felt
extremely happy whenever she thought about this. “I didn’t think he would be so patient with the kids. He
put in a lot of effort to get close to them, you know.”
“That’s good, then,” Mrs. Berry nodded approvingly. “Look how he set up a clinic for us at home. He even
fetched me here from the hospital! I can tell he’s very caring towards you and the kids.”
“I overheard the medical staff talking about the clinic on my way here. Apparently, the medical equipment
itself already costs more than one hundred million. Because they needed it to be ready-made, they
brought the equipment straight from the hospital. Dr. Langhan will get customized ones from abroad later
on…”
“He didn’t tell me about any of this at all,” Charlotte said, feeling guilty again. “He must have told Ben to
look for Olivia to keep me company here.”
“You did well to find a man as thoughtful as him,” Mrs. Berry said, smiling. Here, her face clouded over
again. “But will his parents agree to your marriage? Clans like the Nacht family tend to have complicated
rules.”
Here, Charlotte thought of Henry Nacht. She felt a little unsettled. Henry had disliked her from the
moment he lay eyes on her, and he might not come to accept her in the future either.
“It’s alright, let’s take things one step at a time.” Mrs. Berry patted Charlotte’s hand cheerfully. “I’ve been
lying in the hospital for two months! My bones are completely frozen! Now that I’m finally out, leave the
kitchen to me. I’ll make all of you something nice to eat.”
Here, Mrs. Berry rolled up her sleeves and turned to leave the room…
Charlotte stopped her immediately. “Mrs. Berry, you just got out of the hospital. You should be resting
now.”
“Miss, you know me. I get all antsy and uncomfortable when I rest. I need to work if I want my energy
back.”
“Besides, the kids like my cooking. I haven’t made anything for them in such a long time! Please grant
my wish today.”
“Oh, alright then.”
