Chapter 560
'It must be the three little ones.' Molly thought and picked up the call. There was a baby voice coming from the other end of the phone.
"Mommy-"
Molly could not help but smile and replied softly.
"Yes, have you had your breakfast?"
"We did!" the triplets replied.
"How are you, Claudia? It rained heavily and thunder was roaring last night. Were you scared?" Molly asked softly and took a sip of hot tea.
"No, Mommy! I wasn't scared. I have my brothers with me!" said Claudia as she leaned closer to the phone. Her voice was soft and sweet. She glanced at her brothers beside her with a bright smile when she spoke.
Last night, Alex and Ben knew that Claudia would be afraid. They ran to her room in the middle of the night to comfort her. Little Claudia slept between her brothers, and she slept soundly.
"Don't worry, Mommy. We'll look after Claudia when you're not around." Ben said immediately after Claudia had finished talking.
"Yeah, Mommy. Leave it to US." Alex followed and said.
After Molly listened to what they had said, she felt warm in her heart, and her smile became wider.
The three little ones had never let Molly worry at any time. They were sensible and considerate.
"Mommy, what about you? Did you sleep well there last night?" The three little ones asked. They could not hold back their excitement, and they added, "Did anything happen with Uncle Sean?"
Molly could not help but laugh. Sean took a bite and could not help but glance at her.
'What's so funny?' Sean wondered.
"I had a great night, and so did Uncle Sean," Molly replied. She looked up at Sean, but she did not expect that he had been staring at her for a long time.
The triplets heard Molly's reply, and they knew that if they continued to ask, they would not be able to get any answers.
Molly was caught off guard when their gaze met, and her heart skipped a beat. But, she quickly calmed down, she looked at Sean and asked, "Would you like to talk to the children?"
The triplets hurriedly got closer to the phone and could not wait any longer. They said, "Yes! We missed Uncle Sean too. Mommy please passed the phone to Uncle Sean! He must have missed US too!"
Molly, Tony, and Sean on the opposite side heard what the triplets had said, which echoed at the center of the dining table. They all could not help but smiled.
"Okay." Sean agreed.
Molly handed Sean the phone directly.
Immediately, the triplets talked to Sean for a while, and he looked happy at the end.
'I wonder what they were talking about.' Molly wondered.
They had finished breakfast at the villa, and Sean had to go to the company to deal with some matters.
"Are you going back home?" Sean returned the phone to Molly and asked her.
If Molly wished to go home, Sean would drop her at the company.
"No, there are still many things to deal with here." Molly refused while helping Tony clean up the dining table.
