“Maverick, you never loved me all these years, did you?” “Be good. You're just a substitute.” ___ Never did Valencia expect that what her crush thought of her was a substitute for another woman. And never did she expect that the asshole would break the news to her after she gave herself to him a night before their wedding. Unable to take in the heartbreak, Valencia fled on her wedding day. Fast-forward to five years later; Valencia is now the anonymous owner of a company and the diligent mother of smart-ass quadruplets who think mom is the best and shouldn't be stressed. And the most important thing: Mom needs a capable boyfriend. Someone dared to attack their mommy? Mom will face-slap, and if Mom can't, Quadruplet will! A certain shameless man: ‘Darling, relax; I'll properly beat them up for you. After the beating, what do you think we should have next—a triplet or a sextuplet?’ Valencia: “….” Smartass quadruplets: Didn't you consider Mom to be a substitute? Scram. We don't recognize you!
View More"Finian, come here right now." Valencia sighed and rubbed her slightly protruding stomach, her eyes filled with helplessness after seeing Finian tug at Iris’ hair before running away again.Unlike the gentle quadruplets, Finian was the opposite. Finian was mischievous and troublesome, yet more than adorable enough to make your heart melt with a gaze. He was so devilishly mischievous, caring, and attractive all at the same time. So possessive and tricky that he had used tricks to chase away all the boys who had a crush on Iris so they wouldn't steal his big sister. So devilish that he always cried and knocked on the door every night, forcing Maverick to stay celibate until Maverick had no choice but to send Finian to the grandparents for a month—who were eagerly willing to raise him for his lifetime—so Maverick could enjoy loving time with his wife.Now Finian was messing up Iris’ hair while Iris was trying to help by arranging the gifts. Today was Maverick and Valencia’s fifth anniver
The days that followed in the countryside mansion went by in a blur, filled with excitement and sweet noises.The mothers were in charge of everything—food, the wedding venue, which was the mansion garden, etc.The fathers were in charge of the finances and supplying the wine. It was such a hefty task, filled with a lot of arguments and competition, because all the fathers wanted to contribute to the wedding financially.The grooms and Corbyn were in charge of music, speeches, MC, etc.The quadruplets were the flower children who used every chance to remind everyone that their parents were getting married.Valencia, Aviva, Aneira, and Lessie spent their time choosing the wedding dresses.During the week, a lot of wedding proposals also happened: Warrick proposed to Aviva to be his wife, Farewell officially proposed to Aneira, and finally, Amell proposed to Burke.Because of this, everyone decided to hold their weddings on Saturday. It would be a day of celebration.Two days before the
The sudden sweet aroma that drifted into Maverick’s nose made a pang of nostalgia hit him.Even though it had been years, he could still recall clearly—this was Valencia’s meal. Valencia prepared a meal for him?At that realization, Maverick’s eyes flew wide open, and at that moment, he saw Valencia pointing at the cart of food next to her.Valencia smiled and articulated just like he would have said, “Breakfast for a king. Freshen up and eat.”Maverick had always been awake long before she was, so Valencia had made sure to wake up early before he beat her to it and prepared a meal for her and the children.Not to mention that Maverick would definitely refuse to let her prepare the meal.Since he knew about her pregnancy, Maverick prevented Valencia from stepping into the kitchen or doing anything that would stress her out.And because last night was filled with fun, and all the men crashed into the countryside mansion where they were spending their vacation—drunk and tired—it made it
Immediately, the car paused at the Austeegard mansion. Maverick picked up the quadruplets in their usual style: Iris sat on his shoulder, Hudson rested on his back, and Iverson and Orson were carried with one hand each. He began to lead them toward the mansion while they talked about the fun they had during their five-day vacation.“We are home!” Valencia cheerfully announced and pushed the door open. Her words stuck in her throat when she saw that Lessie was the one who opened it.Lessie smiled and waved at Valencia awkwardly. “Welcome, Valencia. How have you been?”She unconsciously stepped aside for Maverick and the quadruplets to enter, revealing Mr. Carter and Amabella waiting at the door.Valencia’s lips parted and her eyes darted, not expecting their presence.Lessie stepped forward and bowed to Valencia in apology. “Valencia, I have always been filled with guilt for how I treated you. All this time I was jealous. A servant told me you looked down on us and hated us because we
Of course, after a day or two of resting, the restless and enthusiastic quadruplets wouldn’t let their parents forget their promise of bringing them to play.And every chance they had, they’d always remind the couple, so on the third day, Valencia and Maverick packed the quadruplets’ things and set off for their vacation.Even though the quadruplets were the ones who pestered their parents to bring them to play, when it was time to leave, they clung to their grandparents with reluctance. They expressed, “Bye, Grandma, Grandma. We’ll miss you.”Still, it wasn’t enough to hide how much of a good mood they were in.The quadruplets were in such a good mood that Aviva finally got the wish of Baby Orson letting her carry him and pull his cheeks, perhaps for the last time.Suddenly, Maverick’s phone rang, and he walked to the side to pick it up upon seeing that it was Axel who had called.“Master, I have cleared all the negative posts about Miss Valencia from the internet. I have sent Amelia
“Mom. Dad. Maverick. Valencia, you are here.”As soon as the two arrived at the airport lobby, they were greeted by the Austergaard, Vandenberg, and Cirillo families, including Aneira and her cute quadruplets—in masks—holding up a welcome sign to attract their attention.The two’s hearts softened and melted with joy, and they hurriedly approached them in long, quick strides. “Mom. Dad.”Valencia and Maverick greeted the parents and got down on one knee to engulf the quadruplets in a warm family hug.Valencia’s eyes narrowed in astonishment. It had just been a few days of separation—why did it feel as if her quadruplets had grown chubby compared to when she last saw them? She couldn't resist the urge to pinch their smooth cheeks, so she did.Valencia hugged the quadruplets again, feeling as if she had returned home. “Mom and Dad missed babies a lot. Did you miss Mom and Dad? Mom and Dad brought you many things, too.” She placed kisses on their cheeks and ruffled their hair endearingly.
