Chapter 733: Chapter 733: Giving You Six Dollars (3)
Everyone who came brought a gift, as it felt improper to come empty-handed. Three gifts came simultaneously as triplets were born. They had stayed in the hospital for nearly a month. Day by day, they didn’t realize how much stuff they had until they began packing. Merely the Triplets’ clothes alone added up to three boxes carried to the car by the servants.
So, when Madame Burton’s phone rang, she paid it no attention, focusing only on packing their luggage.
Steve Burton observed his mother intently to see if she would check her phone. When he noticed that she continued to ignore it, he texted her once again.
Madame Burton, still unresponsive, was directing the servants to handle the porcelain items carefully and place them skillfully in the car to avoid damage.
After Madame Burton was done with her directions, Steve Burton, who couldn’t contain himself any longer, reminded his mother out loud, “Mom, your phone is ringing again.”
“Oh,” replied Madame Burton nonchalantly, as she turned to discuss with Lady Gregory how they could arrange the toys to take up the least space in the car.
Feeling somewhat frustrated, Steve Burton exhaled deeply and, gritting his teeth, dialed his mother’s number.
The ringtone echoed for quite a while before Madame Burton finally fumbled her phone out of her pocket. Steve Burton hurried to disconnect the call.
Madame Burton checked her call log to see that it was Steve who had called. She was about to respond to him when he snapped at her, “Mom, who called you?”
Madame Burton gave Steve Burton a perplexed look, during which Steve quickly texted her: simply three concise words: “Check your message.”
Madame Burton received the text, first casting an odd stare resembling a nerve check at her son, then she verified the message.
“If you want the Triplets to officially enter our family’s household register as soon as possible, you might want to subtly suggest to Lady Gregory about my marriage with Ruby.”
“?”
“Check your message.”
Although Madame Burton was not sure what Steve Burton was up to, the content of the first message moved her. So, she discreetly put away her phone and gave a relaxed reply to Steve Burton, “Your Dad called.”
Afterwards, she continued packing with Lady Gregory.
Approximately a minute later, Madame Burton spontaneously suggested to Lady Gregory, “Quinn Family, Ruby’s confinement period is almost over. Should we start considering their wedding? Otherwise, we won’t be able to celebrate the Triplets’ 100-days celebration.”
Ruby’s mother did not sense anything inappropriate, she responded, “Indeed, it is time to consider their marriage.”
Then, Lady Gregory addressed Steve Burton, “Steve, when are you planning to get married?”
Steve Burton, of course, couldn’t wait for them to get married immediately. However, he pretentiously conveyed a deep respect for Ruby’s wishes and sincerely replied, “I will follow whatever Ruby’s preference.”
While saying this, Steve Burton sent another text to his mother.
Madame Burton looked down at her phone to check the message then suggested, “Lady Gregory, we need to make sure the wedding is grand and ceremonious, we can’t rush it. However, the Triplets are already a month old, and they should be registered into the family’s account. Coincidentally, Ruby is being discharged from the hospital today, and furthermore, today is an auspicious day. How about they go and get their marriage license later? What do you think?”
