The Billionaire Twins Need A New Mommy! novel Chapter 724

Chapter 724: Of course, he knew.

"And I’m glad you finally found the courage to face this... reality with me."

Lola didn’t think she had any tears left for this. In her mind, she knew she had to tell Atlas about the situation. That no matter how much in love they were with each other, and even though they already had the twins, there was no chance for them to have another child they could raise together.

But the moment those words caressed her ears, a tear rolled down her cheek as if by magic. Then her lips began to tremble as a lump formed in her throat.

She knew he wouldn’t get angry. She had even expected everything he might possibly say just to console her. But... not this.

Of course, she whispered in her head. Of course, he knew.

It wasn’t classified information. This was something anyone could find if they looked into her closely. She knew that at the back of her mind. She had simply denied the thought and refused to assume—despite knowing, deep in her heart, that he had probably already found out.

Atlas had uncovered the truth about her parents first. What more about something this easily accessible?

So what held her back?

Naturally, it was what she had confessed about.

It was a reality she wasn’t ready to face—a cruel truth she didn’t want to accept, one she found absurd. After everything she had been through, it felt unfair. Even when she already had the twins, a loving husband, his family, and everything she could ask for, it still felt unfair.

Which only made it worse, because it made her feel ungrateful.

She already had everything, so what was unfair about that?

That was the question that lingered in her mind. Perhaps it was something her conscience fed her to stop her from dwelling on it. Or simply to make her feelings sound shallow.

"Huh..." escaped her lips as she chewed on them.

Atlas let out a helpless sigh and pulled her into his arms. "Come here," he said, embracing her gently.

The moment Lola melted into his arms, she buried her face against his shoulder and sobbed like a child. She clutched his back, trying to form words, but none came. All she could do was sob and sniff, drenching his shoulder with tears and snot while he patted her back.

"Huhuhu! I’m sorry!" she wept. "For making you wait so long before I found the courage — hic!"

She tried to form a complete sentence, but her sobs kept getting in the way. Meanwhile, Atlas remained silent, simply patting her back until she slowly calmed down.

Eventually, she pulled away. She was still sniffing, hiccupping every few breaths. It had been a long time since she had cried like a child until her nose was red and her eyes a little swollen. Yet he still gently wiped her tears away.

"How—" she hiccupped. "How long have you known?"

Still wiping her cheek, he answered, "For a while now."

"..." She pursed her lips. "Why didn’t you tell me?"

"Hmm... Penny told me not to."

"Huh?" she blinked. "Penny knew?"

"She’s a busybody," he replied calmly, "and peeked at the document while I was checking it." He looked her in the eye. "Then she told me not to do anything... and called me annoying."

Her brows knit slightly as Atlas explained further, keeping it short and precise.

"So I waited until you were ready," he continued. "Until we could talk about what we could do—or whether we’d choose what we already have. I’m fine with either. I’m satisfied with you and the twins, but I won’t lie and say I don’t want a bigger family."

He paused and gently pinched her cheek. "However, it’s your body. My heart won’t change either way."

Lola sniffed sharply, her brows furrowing. "Really?" she muttered.
