Chapter 1650
Remy flew back to Annenburg the next afternoon. Two days after he returned to Anneburg, Jane gave birth to a pair of fraternal twins.
Remy instantly phoned Elisa to share his joy with her.
This was not his first time being an uncle but it was different this time.
Previously, he became an uncle to his cousin’s child.
This time around, he was an uncle to his brother’s children.
When Elisa picked up his call, she was still staying in her house. She did not return to the Stones‘ residence.
After Mrs. Stone found out from Serenity that Elisa was staying in her own house, she did not take the initiative to call Elisa. There was a deadlock between Mrs. Stone and Elisa. Seemingly, they gave each other the silent treatment.
Mrs. Stone felt that she was right–it was her daughter who was immature, unfilial, and disobedient.
On the other hand, Elisa found her mother stubborn. Remy had gotten things squared away, yet Mrs. Stone remained resolute just because Remy was not a Wiltspoonian.
“The babies are born!”
Elisa was delighted to hear from Remy that Jane had delivered her babies. She immediately wished him, “Remy, congratulations. You’re now an uncle.”
“Thank you. This time, I’m an uncle to my brother’s children, who are a pair of fraternal twins. Our family members are all overjoyed, especially my brother. He can’t wait to celebrate it.”
“They’re fraternal twins. How wonderful!” Elisa screamed before she said with a smile, “I admire. your sister–in–law for giving birth to fraternal twins. The babies must be cute. Do you have photos of them? Send a few to me to have a look.”
“The babies are still in the incubators. I only saw them once. They’re very small but cute. I took some photos, and I’ll send them to you later. My mom said babies look different each day. Over time, they’ll get cuter.”
The two babies were born before the due date. Besides, they were fraternal twins. When they were born, they were not even six pounds each, and that was why they were still in the incubator.
“Congrats. This is wonderful. How I wish my sister–in–law could give birth to a pair of fraternal twins too. Oh, that’s impossible. She’s pregnant with a baby.”
Elisa purposely joked around. “Yeah, we meet every day.”
Remy stopped speaking on the other end of the line.
Elisa thought he was mad, so she was about to tell him that she was lying. At that moment, he happened to say, “I’m catching a flight back to Wiltspoon this afternoon.”
Knowing that his sister-in-law and her babies were safe, and that he had met them, he could not fight the urge to stay any longer.
He had to return to Wiltspoon to protect his woman!
Elisa laughed and said, “I was kidding. I haven’t met Mr. Reading since that night. It’s been a few days.”
Andrew was a clever person. Given that Mrs. Stone had made her intention so clear, how could he possibly not notice it?
Andrew probably wished he could draw a clear boundary with Elisa and that he had never met her.
