Triplet Mommy’s Triumphant Return by Quinn Hart

Chapter 19

“Don’t be afraid.”

Roderick sounded serious and gentle.

He sounded exactly the same as he did seven years ago!

It was him!

Every time she woke up from her nightmares over the years, she heard a voice.

“Don’t be afraid.”

That voice drove away the darkness.

She opened her eyes wide and saw a clear and handsome face.

“It’s you! NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

“Why did you leave me?”

Ignoring her resistance, Roderick held her in his arms.

Melanie remembered that he said that he would marry her.

She blushed.

However, when she thought about Elias, she couldn’t help imagining a wealthy family fighting over a kid, just like what she saw on TV series.

She thought, ‘Is a woman important to such a family and such a man? What they care about is the kid!‘”

Therefore, she pushed Roderick away.

“So what? I won’t give Elias to you. He’s my son.”

“He is our son!”

“So what? Even though the Lambert family is wealthy and powerful, they can’t take my son from

1. me.

“You and Elias are both important to me. Marry me, Mela.”

Seeing his serious look, Melanie’s heart skipped a beat.

She froze for a moment, opened the door, and ran out.

She was getting out of here!

She had to take Elias and–leave now!

13:53 Sat, 2 Mar G FR

Melanie retraced her steps to the living room and was surprised by what she saw!

She didn’t know that there were so many people in this room!

Everyone looked at her when she showed up!

“Is this my future granddaughter–in–law?”

On the large couch in the middle of the living room sat a smiling old man.

Melanie thought, “What’s going on? What should I say? Should I say yes?‘

Melanie felt somehow embarrassed.

“Come and have a seat, Melanie.”

Geoffrey Lambert, the old man waved at her again.

She didn’t move, but Roderick who followed her grabbed her hand.

“This is my grandpa, Mela.”

Melanie noticed that Geoffrey looked very spirited and kind, just like her grandpa, so she said, “Nice to meet you, Mr. Lambert.”

“Nice to meet you too, Melanie.”

Geoffrey smiled at Melanie with satisfaction and then looked at Roderick.

“Great. You look perfect for each other.”

Melanie was so embarrassed, but everyone present agreed with Geoffrey.

“You got me wrong. I don’t know him.”

Melanie felt a little panicked when she saw Elias was not there.

*Roddy is a nice guy. When will you get married, Melanie?”

Geoffrey looked very kind, but his words made Melanie helpless.

Melanie was stunned.

She thought, “Why do they keep asking me to marry him? Is it so easy to marry into such a wealthy family?

“I don’t think I’m ready for a marriage, Mr. Lambert.”

Geoffrey laughed.

“Fine, it’s up to you.

“Stay here tonight, Melanie. I’ve asked someone to get a room ready for you. Elias is new here and I’m afraid that he will feel insecure alone.”

Hearing this, Melanie couldn’t stand it anymore. She stood up abruptly.

“No, I’m here to take Elias back.”

“I don’t want to leave Daddy, Mommy!” Suddenly, Elias jumped out and shouted.

“Elias!”

Melanie was so mad that she wanted to beat him up!

Elias threw himself into Roderick’s arms and wouldn’t let go..

“I want to be with Daddy!”

Melanie couldn’t lose her temper in front of so many people, so she had to convince him patiently.

“We’re not sure that he’s your daddy. How about we leave now and come back next time?”

“He Is my daddy. I look exactly like him.”

Elias was not stupid.

He knew that as soon as he left the Lambert Manor, he would be sent back to the island.

“Elias!”

Melanie tried her best to restrain herself and warned Elias to listen to her.

Unexpectedly, Elias buried his face in Roderick’s shoulder and wouldn’t look at her.

Angie was shocked by what she had seen.

However, she was glad the next moment.

She thought, I can do whatever I want if I have a cousin–in–law like Roderick, can’t I?‘

“Why don’t you let Elias stay at the Lambert Manor since he wants to stay so bad, Melanie?”

“That’s impossible. He can’t stay at a stranger’s place.”

Melanie was a little mad.

When the Lambert family heard that she was determined to take Elias away, they all turned to Geoffrey, who sat upright on the couch.

At this time, a man in black came in, whispered something to Geoffrey, and handed him a file.

Geoffrey looked at it and smiled with satisfaction.

“Thank you for taking good care of Elias, Melanie, The Lambert family will treat him well from

now on.”

Melanie saw the words “DNA test on the file and felt hopeless.

She should have recognized Roderick earlier!

It was all because of her eyes.

If she had recognized him the first few times she met him, she wouldn’t be where she was!

The Robertson family!

The Robertson family hurt her and her mother, and now made her lose Elias!

She clenched her fists tightly, feeling desperate!

She thought, ‘Roderick is the most powerful man in Beloris and if he’s determined to take Elias away from me, he’ll make it no matter what happens!

I’d better compromise now and find a chance later to take Elias back to the island.”

Melanie thought about it for a while.

“Alright, Elias will stay.”

After saying that, she walked out of the door without looking back.

“Mommy!”

Elias rushed over and hugged Melanie.

“Are you leaving, Mommy?”

“Yes, I have a lot of things to do so I can’t stay with you. Are you sure you’re not coming with me?”

Elias looked at her and then back at Roderick.

“I want to be with Daddy, Mommy.”

“Okay, you can stay, but I need you to promise me one thing.”

Elias was glad that Melanie let him stay.

“I’ll do whatever you want, Mommy.”

“Great. You must keep your word as a real man!”

Melanie whispered to Elias, “Do not tell anyone about your two elder brothers.

“Can you do that?”

Elias asked gloomily, “I can’t?”

Melanie shook her head firmly.

“Okay, I promise!”

Melanie held Elias in her arms and kissed him on the cheek. “Good boy.”

1450 Sat, Mar G

No one in the Lambert family knew what Melanie had told Elias, but they were all happy to have

him with them.

+5.

Melanie went back to the Harbour Villa at once. Seeing Edward and Ethan safe and sound, she breathed a sigh of relief.

After thinking for a while, Melanie decided to send Edward and Ethan back to the island as planned.

Everyone was stunned at her decision.

Angie was the first to speak out against it.

“Melanie, I don’t understand why you wanna do this. I think that Roderick is very nice, and the children should have a father!”

Edward and Ethan were also anxious.

“Mommy, Elias can go to Daddy’s home. Why can’t we?”

Melanie was angry at this moment and didn’t wanna hear any of that.

“Edward, Ethan, if you still want me as your mommy, go back to the island immediately. If not, just go to the Lambert family. I won’t stop you!”

“Mommy!”

Edward and Ethan looked at each other and lowered their heads.

“Mommy, can’t we just stay here?”

“No. You have to leave here immediately.”

“Mommy, what about Elias?”

“I have my own plan.”

Melanie let Roy and Sam escort Edward and Ethan all the way.

Seeing the plane set off from Beloris, Melanie gradually calmed down.

“Melanie, I really don’t understand why you’re doing this.”

Angie handed Melanie a cup of coffee.

“Isn’t it good to let Roderick be the children’s father?”

“That’s not the point. It’s impossible for us to be together.”

Melanie sipped her coffee with a sneer.

“Why?”

Angie couldn’t understand.
