Eugene panicked at once, and he thought he was going to lose Olivia for good at that moment. Before he knew it, he hugged her and explained anxiously, âNo, no, no, Olivia, Iâm not hiding anything from you! I just learned about this as well. In fact, Iâm still very much lost. You can ask them if you donât believe me. They just came to me a few days ago.â
Them? Olivia followed Eugeneâs line of sight and found him looking at the triplets, and it stumped her. âT-Theyâre your sons?â
She pointed at them with incredulity. Eugene nodded guiltily and said, âI did a DNA test with them a few days ago. They really are my sons.â
Olivia staggered in response, and her head became woozy too. She couldnât believe the triplets she adored so much were Eugeneâs illegitimate sons.
Story of my life! North, on the other hand, seemed to have suffered a massive shock as he looked toward the triplets sitting next to him in a panic. Are they looking for their father? Seems more like theyâre stealing mine! Also, we share a father?!
His eyes turned red-rimmed, and his lips were pursed into a fine line as he glared daggers at his father, looking like he would disown his father at once if Eugene couldnât explain himself.
Oliviaâs gaze at Eugene was ridden with agony as she questioned, âWho did you have them with? Was it Azalea?â
Eugene wasnât doing any better either, and her was overwhelmed with trouble. Iâd have said it straight away if I knew anything!
âOlivia, North, please hear me out!â Eugene pleaded in a panic when he saw how hurt Olivia and North looked. âI donât know who their mother is. This is what I want to find out too.â
With that, he turned to North. âI lied to you earlier, North. I didnât make plans with anyone tonight. I was told they and their godmother. were here having dinner. So, I came to find out more about them. When I ran into you, I was worried you would get jealous, and I hadnât gotten to the bottom of this as well. Thatâs why I lied.â
Then, he turned back to Olivia and sighed helplessly. âBut whoâd have thought youâre actually their godmother?â
âSo, you choose to hide everything from me, huh?â Olivia monotoned with an icy gaze. âWhy am I always the last person to know? Why is it that everyone learns about anything before I finally do? Why, Eugene?â
Startled, Eugene hurriedly explained, âI have not intention of hiding it from you. I just learned about it this morning myself. I wanted to find out the whole story before telling you. Who else knows?â
âBut I learned about it before you did.â Olivia sneered. âDo you dare tell me again that you just found out this morning? Do you dare tell me youâd still tell me about it if Iâm not their godmother? You know what I hate the most, so why do you keep hiding things from me?!â
Feeling justly accused, Eugene defended himself and said, âIf you learned about it three days ago, then someone has surely set me up. If you only learned about it today, it could only mean that someoneâs watching me. Ask them. They came to me three days ago, and I just got the DNA report this morning. Curtis can attest to it...â
With that, he pulled his phone out and called Curtis, putting it on speaker. âCurtis, when did you give me the DNA test results for the three kids?â
âIâm sorry? The sudden question stumped Curtis for a moment, and it only exasperated Eugene. âJust speak the truth!â
âT-This morning, at ten,â Curtis replied in a fluster. âIs everything okay, sir?â At that, Eugene gazed at Olivia. âYou heard him. I didnât lie to you.â
Then, he turned to the triplets and asked, âYou three came to me three days ago, didnât you? Tell the truth. Iâm sure you donât want to see me and your godmother fight, right?â With that, the triplets gazed at Olivia and nodded solemnly.
Eugene let out a long sigh of relief in response. Then, he grabbed Oliviaâs hand and coaxed her, saying, âIâve been looking into this for the past few days; Iâm just as lost as you are. The only thing I can do is swear that I havenât been with any other woman. I wasnât able to explain how I got three sons out of nowhere, and I wanted to find out the whole story before telling you about it. I swear, I have no intention of hiding it from you.â
