Charming Mommy of adorable triplets novel Chapter 880

Chapter 880

“Grandpa, won’t you come with us to Daddy’s birthday party?” Daisie asked with her head tilted.

“I’m too old for a party now. I can no longer stay up late as you young people do. I have to go to bed early and get up early to keep myself healthy.” Nicholas took a sip of Earl Fray tea.

After the family had dinner, Nicholas went back to his study while Colton and Daisie went for a stroll with Maisie in the courtyard.

Sitting alone in the study, Nicholas looked through some old items, and when he looked up again, the first thing that caught his attention was Nolan, who was leaning against the door silently.

He was astounded and put down the items in his hands. “Why didn’t you go for a walk with your kids and wife? Why have you come here instead?”

“Why didn’t you tell me about your gastric?”

Nicholas lifted his gaze. “It’s just a tiny issue, so what can I say?”

Nolan walked to the desk and took a glance at the old box that was lying on the desk, which contained the mementos that belonged to his mother. “Have you been suffering from gastritis since very early on?”

Nicholas did not answer.

Nolan looked at him. “After Mother passed away, you submerged yourself in heaps of work. That was when it started, wasn’ t it?”

Nicholas took a deep breath, leaned back in his chair, and looked out the window at the setting sun. “I lost your mother very early on in my life, and I’d think of her whenever I was free. Thus, all I could do was fill all my time with work. You should now understand how I felt back then too. When you thought you had lost Zee three years ago, I think you wouldn’t even be able to take care of yourself if it weren’t for me.

“But back then, I could only carry all the burdens by myself, I would even have given up on life if it wasn’t for you.”

Nolan lowered his gaze. “Then you should’ve told me.”
