Chapter 714: Chapter 714: I Have Triplets (4)
Ruby’s tone, when speaking, was as casual as if she was recounting what she had eaten for dinner that night.
After listening to her, Steve’s initial reaction was to think that Ruby was playing a joke on him. He innocently blinked at Ruby and said, “Ruby, that was a really funny joke.”
A joke? She wasn’t joking at all; she was stating a fact.
Ruby furrowed her brows slightly, her expression becoming more serious, “Steve, I’m not joking. The Triplets are really your children.”
With a hint of innocence remaining on his face, Steve noticed Ruby’s expression becoming increasingly serious. His own expression beca slightly stiff, as he blinked and reached out a hand to touch Ruby’s forehead, “Ruby, are you confused?”
You’re the one who’s confused!” Annoyed, Ruby batted away Steve’s hand and stared into his eyes, emphasizing each word, “The Triplets are your children. If you don’t believe , you can have a DNA test conducted.”
Steve first rubbed his slightly sore hand, which had been batted away by Ruby, then repeated her words as if he had just misheard her, “The Triplets are my children?”
Ruby had been curious about Steve’s reaction to the truth these past two weeks; now that the mont had finally arrived, she couldn’t help but feel nervous. She unconsciously held her breath and gently nodded at Steve.
Steve seed to freeze in place, staring unblinkingly at Ruby. He appeared completely petrified.
Ti ticked away, and as Ruby looked at the man standing stiff as a statue before her, she couldn’t help but beco increasingly concerned.
Could he have gone stupid from shock?
Just as Ruby was about to reach out and touch Steve again, he suddenly jolted back to his senses. He quickly let go of Ruby, turned around, and dashed out of the ward, leaving only Ruby behind, staring incredulously as he left. srized, Ruby blinked, “Steve just left? Steve actually left after hearing the news?”
This wasn’t the scenario she had imagined…
–
Steve left the ward and rushed straight to the nursery, forcefully pushing open the door. Due to the loud noise, the nurse inside cast an unhappy glance at him.
Steve ignored the nurse’s gaze and walked directly to the incubator containing the Triplets. First, he looked at Chise and Candice, who were asleep, and then turned to see Candy, who was being carefully fed by a nurse. He then inexplicably asked the nurse, “How premature were these three?”
The nurse had always assud Steve was the Triplets’ father and found Steve’s question a little strange. She looked at him with a puzzled expression, “Sir, you’re their father, shouldn’t you know this better than anyone?”
Steve didn’t even bother acknowledging what the nurse had said, instead he repeated the question with a weightier tone, “Just how premature were they?”
Steve always had an unapproachable, aloof air about him, and with that now forceful tone, the power emanating from him beca even more apparent. The intensity terrified the nurse, whose hand twitched and spilled the milk all over Candy.
