The Triplets My Ex Never Knew About novel Chapter 275

Chapter 275: Chapter 275: Scott York’s Envy

"If that’s the case..."

Christian gestured for everyone to lean in. "I have a plan."

...

Five minutes later, Christian finished explaining his plan, and Master Mia offered her own suggestions.

Christian nodded, and Mia’s plan was unanimously approved.

Zachery: "?"

Scott York: "..."

He glanced furtively at Christian, a cautious thought forming in his mind.

’Will I... have friends too?’

...

After lunch, Estelle Lockwood suddenly raised an eyebrow. "Mia, where’s your watch?"

Each of the three little ones had a watch, custom-made for them by Nathaniel Sloan. The trio loved them and wore them whether they were eating or sleeping. But now, the watch on Mia’s wrist was gone.

Mia’s eyes darted around. Thinking of her plan, she quickly shushed her.

"Mommy, can I tell you later, okay?"

Estelle Lockwood was a little curious. "So mysterious?"

Mia nodded firmly. "Mhm! It’s very mysterious, so I can’t tell Mommy right now!"

Estelle Lockwood never minded her child having a few little secrets, so she just patted Mia’s head. "Just as long as you’re not getting into trouble."

Mia gave a big "Mhm!" and said, "I’m going to go play then."

After Mia left, Estelle Lockwood was sunbathing in the courtyard. Cupping her chin, she said, "Mr. Sloan, don’t look so stern."

Nathaniel Sloan lowered his gaze slightly.

Estelle Lockwood said, "See? Because you’re always so stern, Mia didn’t even dare to approach you."

Estelle Lockwood knew Mia well. She had watched this little one grow up. The moment she saw Mia’s eyes darting about, she knew what her daughter was up to.

She’d deliberately shown her the bare wrist, prompting a question about the watch, only to then declare it a secret and ask Estelle Lockwood not to pry.

All of it was for Scott York’s benefit.

Estelle Lockwood stroked her chin. "It’s probably something Scott York doesn’t dare to do, so Mia is trying to prove that her mommy is easygoing."

Nathaniel Sloan, on the other hand, was calm. He raised an eyebrow and glanced toward the two little ones in the corner.

’Oh? So Daddy isn’t so easygoing?’

Christian and Zachery: "..." ’Nope, not looking. We’re out of here!’

...

In another corner of the inn, Scott York’s eyes widened slightly as he said subconsciously, "Your mommy... she really didn’t press you for details..."

Scott York knew how valuable the watch on Mia Lockwood’s wrist was, yet Mia Lockwood’s mother hadn’t shown the slightest surprise when she saw it was missing.

But if it were him... Thea York would probably... No, no, if it were him, he wouldn’t even have a watch like that in the first place.

His aunt had told him he was the shame of the York Family, that he should have never existed. Because his parents were dead, his own survival was a mistake. If he had any sense, he should have died along with his parents.

But Scott York was afraid of pain and couldn’t bring himself to die, so he had clung to life. However, his aunt’s verbal abuse only grew uglier.

Yet, in Scott York’s mind, all of this was normal. After all, it was the only life he had ever known.

But now, after seeing Mia Lockwood and her mommy, Scott York was just realizing... could parents really be this wonderful?
