Chapter 41
Triplets on Secret Mission
Chapter 41 Sean sat alone in the bathtub as the corners of his lips curled at the thought of Mollyâs bashful look. He removed his clothes and laid himself down in the bathtub. His limbs were outstretched as the warm water wrapped around him while he enjoyed some shuteye.
Even after some time, he could still feel the odd sensation on his collarbone. He could not help but touch it as he felt tingles around that area.
The next morning, Molly received a call from Grandpa Dave right after she was done eating breakfast with her triplets. âMolly, I want to move in with you,â said Grandpa Dave on the phone. Molly did not mind. In fact, she welcomed the idea very much.
âSure! Iâll pick you up, Grandpa.
âNever mind that! You donât have to come here and endure hell. Iâll pack my things and get the driver to send them over.â
Grandpa Daveâs deep voice echoed from the other end of the phone.
Grandpa Dave was persistent, so Molly did not argue any further. âThis is a good idea too. After all, I havenât gotten a car yet. I might as well wait for grandpa at home and prepare a room for him while Iâm at it,â she thought as she gave her address to Grandpa Dave. She then smiled and continued, âAlright then. Donât pack too many things, Grandpa. Iâve already gotten everything prepared for you.â âSure,â said Grandpa Dave. After ending their call, Molly started to clean Grandpa Daveâs room.
She organized everything as best as she could.
But Grandpa Dave still had not arrived even after she was done with the preparation. Molly frowned as she thought, âDid something happen?â The May Residenceâ Grandpa Dave had already packed his luggage and was about to leave the house.
Walter and Lara were confused when they saw him. âIs the old man going out for a vacation? A vacation sounds great! That way, he couldnât transfer his shares anymore!â âDad, youâre going out with luggage early in the morning. Are you going on a holiday?â
Walter let out a rare smile and asked.
Grandpa Dave took a glance at him. âMolly prepared a room for me, and Iâm going to move in with her. That way, you people canât bug me anymore!â
âWhat?!â Everyone was shocked when Grandpa Dave said that. Lara immediately voiced out, âDad! Youâre joking, right? That d*mn... girl couldnât even take care of herself. How could she take care of you?â
âHow did she even get a place? You didnât give it to her, did you, Dad?â Walter asked with a frown.
Grandpa Dave scoffed. âIf my granddaughter couldnât take care of me, are you going to do so? Look at you now, siding with an outsider. You even plan to give my shares to this outsider. Over my dead body!â
While he was speaking, he glared at Diana and continued, âSince youâve already acknowledged your own family, stop coming back to my family. After all, youâve already gotten what you wanted!â
Grandpa Dave was sharp, and his eyes seemed like they could see through anyone. He was obviously talking about the two percent of shares that Diana had gotten from Walter and Lara.
Dianaâs face went pale when she heard Grandpa Dave. She then lowered her head as if she had been wronged.
âGrandpa Dave, Diana just misses you and my parents. Thatâs why sheâs been coming back to visit you. She respects you, so you shouldnât talk about her like that. After all, sheâs been my sister for years.â Nathan frowned as he defended Diana.
Grandpa Dave immediately scowled, âDonât you forget that your real sister is Molly. Sheâs related to you by blood! Youâre all heartless, and itâs fine if you donât take her in. Iâll go and live with my granddaughter myself!â
He then turned to leave right after he was done speaking.
Everyone immediately stood up to stop him. Diana even threw herself at Grandpa Dave pretentiously and grabbed his arm, saying, âGrandpa, itâs all my fault. Donât leave. This is your home. If it makes you feel better, Iâll leave!â
âDonât touch me!â Grandpa Dave looked disgusted as he swung Dianaâs hand away. But while he did that, he lost balance and fell hard onto the ground. Suddenly, he could not stand back up and was looking like he was in immense pain. He had hurt his back.
