To the Love of My Life

Chapter 728: Chapter 728: I Have Triplets (18)
 

Ruby Gregory had always been curious about what Steve Burton had been up to that night when he suddenly bid her farewell, after he found out that the Triplets were his children. She was only curious for less than two days before everything became clear.

That night, Steve Burton called for an emergency family meeting at the Burton’s late at night and successfully tricked his parents into apologizing to the Gregorys on his behalf, re-establishing the marriage alliance between the two families. Even though they scolded and hated Steve that night, his father still instructed Madam Burton to buy some nice gifts in the city the next day, even leaving his driver for her to use.

Steve Burton’s father was always busy, but he made sure to return home at five o’clock in the afternoon that day, canceling all his work to help Madam Burton prepare the gifts. Finally, he instructed several servants to carry the packages and head to the Gregorys’ house next door.

Before leaving the Burton’s hall, Steve’s father suddenly remembered something and had Madam Burton take out two bottles of his treasured alcohol that he had been collecting for half his life. Then, he personally went to his study and fetched two boxes of high-quality Freedonian cigars before finally heading towards the Gregorys’ house.

When Steve Burton’s parents unexpectedly visited with so many valuable gifts, Maxwell Gregory and Lady Gregory were quite pleasantly surprised.

The two families, four parents, exchanged pleasantries first and then got to the point at hand.

Steve’s father found it hard to condemn his son’s ridiculous behavior, so in the end, Madam Burton spoke with a troubled expression, and after she had finished explaining, she kept apologizing for Steve.

Maxwell Gregory and Lady Gregory were genuinely shocked by the situation Madam Burton described.

In fact, for Maxwell and Lady Gregory, Steve Burton was still their most favored son-in-law. Although they knew from Madam Burton that Steve had previously secretly given Ruby contraceptive pills and were a little unhappy about it, they still decided to finalize the wedding for the sake of who were the Burton’s flesh and blood. Since Steve’s parents personally came to apologize, Maxwell Gregory and Lady Gregory were too embarrassed to put on airs.

So, regardless of what happened during the families’ negotiation, the atmosphere became more and more harmonious in the end. They even started discussing a grand wedding ceremony and the Triplets’ 100-days celebration without the consent of both Steve and Ruby.

By the end of the conversation, Lady Gregory and Madam Burton had even agreed to visit Ruby in the hospital together early the next morning.

It was then, during Lady Gregory and Madam Burton’s visit to the hospital, that Ruby found out what Steve had been up to that night.

That same day, the Triplets were finally free of their incubators and returned to their mother’s side.

At that time, Steve and Ruby were under the care of a nurse, feeding the Triplets. Suddenly, the door to the hospital room was pushed open, and Lady Gregory and Madam Burton walked in one after the other.
