CHAPTER 684: CHAPTER 684: I DON’T UNDERSTAND WHAT LOVE IS

He never imagined that back then, Serena was pregnant with triplets, and they were all his children!

This...how could it be possible?

Hayden Crawford stood up and walked over to the polished floor-to-ceiling window, placing one hand on his hip as he paced back and forth several times.

"Master... Master, what’s wrong?" Corvus cautiously looked at Hayden Crawford, feeling that his master seemed a bit...silly there, circling around.

Hayden lifted his head, his deep, narrow eyes settling on Corvus’ face, "This DNA paternity test couldn’t be wrong, could it?"

"Certainly not wrong."

"Pip and Stella are my children?"

"That’s what the DNA test results show."

"I have two sons and a daughter?"

"Um... yes."

Hayden felt a bit dizzy, his tall and upright figure swayed a couple of times, as his speculation in his heart was finally confirmed, but his mind was still a blank.

He always thought Pip and Stella were Serena’s and Seth’s children!

He deeply minded this fact; whenever he thought about Serena having children with another man, a gloomy and bloodthirsty rage burned in his chest, wishing to set the whole world ablaze.

But now, Pip and Stella were actually his children!

No wonder the moment he first saw Pip and Stella, he liked them instantly, perhaps this was... the deep bond of blood ties.

Hayden’s strong chest was heaving violently, his pupils constantly contracting, surprisingly, the usually domineering and overbearing man, at this moment, seemed a bit like a helpless child.

He had never thought, other than Caden, he had two other children.

Hayden’s legs went soft, feeling like he was walking on cotton, it felt so much like a dream.

This was all too unreal.

Serena actually gave him three children!

Ha.

Haha.

Seeing that Hayden was about to fall, Corvus immediately tried to support him, "Master, be careful!"

Hayden steadied himself, took a couple of deep breaths, and then let out two hearty laughs, "Great, they are all my children, Serena gave me triplets, I have both a leather jacket and a little cotton-padded jacket, I’m practically the ultimate winner in life, is there anyone else, I just want to ask, is there anyone else!"

"..." Corvus then realized that his master was just too happy, the happiness came so dizzyingly that his master was ridiculously giddy.

Indeed, there’s no one else!

Hayden now had countless ideas, many things he wanted to do, so he instructed, "Quickly find someone to renovate here, I need to add two children’s rooms, no, I’d better move directly, the villa is no longer suitable, after all, with my three kids, a growing family, it’s inconvenient, I’ll move directly to an estate, the kind with a children’s castle."

"Stella is a girl, she’s my little princess, I want to personally design her room, princess dresses, princess shoes, anything she can’t think of shouldn’t be absent..."

Corvus watched Hayden, spinning in circles and thinking, wishing he could bring the best things in the world in front of the three little ones, it was clear his master was truly happy, crazy happy.

In so many years, it was the first time Corvus had seen his master this happy, Corvus himself also broke into a smile.

At this moment, a melodious phone ringtone rang, Hayden had an incoming call.

Who?

Hayden was lost in building beautiful futures for the three little ones, suddenly interrupted by the phone call, he immediately furrowed his heroic brows, who was so tactless to call him at this moment, when all he wanted was to enjoy a moment of quiet joy?

Hayden took out the phone and saw... it was Caden calling.

Hayden pressed the button to connect, "Hello."

Little Caden’s cool, childish voice quickly transmitted from the other end, "Daddy, has the DNA paternity test result come out?"

"Yes, Caden, I’m officially letting you know now, you’re the big brother, Pip is your younger brother, and you have a little Mimi, you’re triplets, all born from your mommy’s belly!"

Hayden thought Little Caden would be happy, because he knew his son had always been preoccupied with his origin.

Little Caden thought he was born from a surrogate mother, while Pip and Stella were born from his mommy’s belly, so from the beginning, Little Caden was very hostile towards Pip, because he was both envious and jealous of Pip.

Now Hayden was telling Little Caden the truth about his origin, but Little Caden was silent and didn’t say a word.

Hayden’s smile paused, "Caden, what’s wrong, aren’t you happy to learn you’re triplets?"

A few seconds later, Little Caden’s muffled voice sounded, "Daddy, since we’re triplets, why doesn’t mommy want me?"

Hayden’s heart tightened, feeling as if his heart was suddenly grabbed mercilessly by a large hand, yes, earlier he was so overwhelmed with happiness that he forgot there were many doubts behind this matter.

Three years ago, didn’t Serena terminate his child?

The triplets must have been born in Alani, why would Serena send the eldest, Caden, to his side?

Now it seemed his father, Jude, must have known everything, and the ghost story that Caden was born from a surrogate mother was just what his father told him!

That damn old fox!

"Caden, back then there were many things between daddy and mommy, which can’t be explained in a sentence or two, you just need to know that mommy loves you."

Hayden was organizing his words, although Caden was a genius with high IQ, he was still a child who needed his mommy’s love, Hayden didn’t want his son to get hurt.

"Really? Even if you had many things happening three years ago, mommy didn’t want to come back to see you, then why didn’t mommy come back to see me in the three years she was away?"

Hayden, "... Caden..."

"Daddy, you and mommy keep telling me that you both love me, but I really don’t know what love is." With that, Little Caden directly hung up the phone.

Listening to the "beep beep" busy signal on the other end, Hayden’s heroic brows furrowed into a "川" shape, he tried to call Caden.

But the other end already transmitted a mechanical and cold female voice, "Sorry, the number you dialed is turned off."

Little Caden had turned off the phone.

Hayden was a bit worried about his son, he decided to find Caden early the next morning, and have a good talk with him.

But, what should he talk about?

Hayden sat down in his office chair, some of his earlier happiness and fulfillment dissipating, leaving behind confusion and hurt in his heart.

Three years ago she should not have terminated his child, moreover, she had lied to him!
