The CEO’s Betrayal: My Ex-lover Has Triplets

Chapter 17″ They are not yours

“Congratulations, Sir.” Enock said to his boss with a smile on his face.

Aaron’s happiness was contagious as he celebrated the news. He walked towards the visitor’s lounge, got down on his knees and embraced the other two kids all while carrying Willa in his arms.

Something exploded in his chest and he felt overwhelmed with emotions. He couldn’t believe it! Everything felt surreal. Tessa whom he thought he would never see again was back in the City and she had his children. His heart soared as he thought about how the woman he loved was also the mother of his three children.

Three! At once!

What a blessing it was!

“You’re mine. You’re my kids,” Aaron confirmed, his voice choking as he suddenly thought of how he had missed out on the most important parts of their lives.

He was never there when they were born. He didn’t hold them or change their diapers. He didn’t put them to sleep or experience being a first-time Dad.

His heart clenched as he held the three children and he ended up shading tears. He couldn’t protect his children and that’s because he wasn’t told about them! ‘Did Tessa hide my kids to punish me? If that was her aim, then she achieved her goal.”

The pain that Aaron felt at not being a part of his children’s lives was beyond description.

“I’m so sorry. Daddy is so sorry. I didn’t know about you.”

He really felt like shit. He was sure it appeared as if he had abandoned his kids when he was never one to shirk his responsibilities.

Aaron let go of the kids so he could take a good look at them. Seeing how Nia and Reagan resembled him and how Willa resembled her mother, warmth spread through his chest. However, the kids were not used to him so they weren’t as sentimental as him. More tears rolled down his cheeks when they looked at him as though he was a stranger.

‘I can’t believe Tessa had my children and didn’t tell me about them. I had a right to know!”

At the same time, Willa’s eyes watered when she saw her father crying. She wiped his face with her chubby fingers, asking, “Don’t cry, Daddy. Why are you crying? Did someone bully you too? Don’t worry. Willa will protect you.”

Aaron chuckled and took her small hand in his. He shook his head, his heart feeling full as he said, “No, I’m just happy to have found you.”

Reagan who was quiet glanced at Aaron, inquiring, “Are you really our Daddy?”

Aaron ruffled his hair and surprisingly, the little boy didn’t get angry like he usually does.

“I am your Daddy. When we went to the hospital earlier and the nice nurse swabbed the inside of your cheeks and mine, that’s when I found out you are my children.”

ey are no

Reagan frowned and crossed his arms, throwing Aaron a series of questions. “Then why don’t you live with us if you’re our real Daddy? Shouldn’t mommies and daddies live together? What do you mean you didn’t know about us? How can a daddy not know he has kids?”

Aaron was at a loss for words. He noticed how Reagan was too smart for his age. He didn’t know how to explain everything to the kids because he didn’t want to put Tessa in a bad light. If the kids still longed for him, it meant Tessa had not bad-mouthed him in front of them so naturally, he wouldn’t make her look bad in front of the kids.
