The days were at last less eventful.
Denise was doing well on set. Even the director had nothing but praise for her talents.
Soon, the triplets' birthday had arrived. The director gave Denise a special day of leave for her stellar performance at work.
On the other hand, Liam had hired the most prestigious event planner in the country to execute the triplets' party at a hotel in the city center. As the Hamiltons and the Watsons were sparse in number and did not wish to invite their business partners, they agreed to book half of the hotel and forgo the initial plan to book the whole venue.
Anthony and Benjamin were already dressed smartly in tiny suits early that day. They looked cool yet adorable.
Anthony essentially looked like a little Kenneth once he donned his outfit, whereas Benjamin looked like Natasha instead. Clad in their respective outfits, the twins exuded a sort of indescribable elegance.
When Natasha emerged from the room and saw them dressed as such, her lips curled upward.
“What is it, Nat?” Anthony asked at once. “Is there something wrong?”
“Not at all. You look very handsome!” Natasha gushed.
“Are you calling Anthony or Daddy handsome, Nat?” Benjamin asked, given the resemblance between his brother and father.
“I'm praising my son,” Natasha
assured.
“Then you should praise me instead as I look the most like you!” Benjamin protested.
“I'm referring to you. You're the most handsome one!”
Benjamin smiled with satisfaction at that. He then raised his eyebrows at Anthony, who shook his head helplessly. He even wants to compete over things like this.
“When is Denise coming back, Nat?” Anthony asked as he turned around to face Natasha.
“She should be heading straight to the hotel today,” Natasha replied as she ate her breakfast.
Anthony and Benjamin walked over and sat across from Natasha to begin having their breakfast.
“We haven't seen her in so long,” Benjamin said wistfully. “I wonder how she’s doing?”
“Don't we video call her every day?” his brother said.
“How's that the same?” Benjamin argued. “I can see her, but I can't touch her.”
Anthony grinned. “Sissy.”
“You sound as if you don't miss her.
Try abstaining from checking her
Instagram for an entire day if you
I ” can!
Anthony was rendered speechless.
I'll just pretend he didn't say anything.
Natasha chuckled at their banter. “All right, hurry up and finish your meal. We'll be going straight there after breakfast.”
Benjamin studied Natasha at that moment and noticed that she was still in her pajamas with her hair carelessly clipped up.
Though she was already beautiful enough bare-faced, he had received his orders.
“Denise sent me a message this morning, Nat,” Benjamin announced as he looked at her. “She told me to keep an eye on you and have you put on some makeup.”
Natasha sighed resignedly. “She's still poking her nose everywhere despite not being here.”
“She also said to have you wear the leftmost dress in the closet.”
She's being awfully specific.
Natasha's wardrobe was maintained by the triplets, with Denise in charge of procuring her outfits. That was how she was privy to what Natasha had in her closet.
Most impressive of all, Denise knew which clothes Natasha wore often and which ones she did not. As a result, the little girl was very familiar with the placement of each outfit.
“All right,” Natasha answered.
