The Billionaire's Hidden Triplets CHAPTER 80
—Mabel—A slow heat crept over my skin.I turned my gaze to the window as our convoy slowed in the popular Wharf Marina.Wait. Could it be what I was thinking?After we pulled up, the security detail stepped out first and scanned the elegance of the dock, before opening our doors.Alec stepped out first and helped me out. I scanned the panorama and brought back my gaze on him. “What do you have up your sleeve?”He smirked. “If I tell you now, will it still be a secret?”“We're in a wharf. You're here to show me a yacht, isn't it?”He gasped. “Brilliant. Yes, I want to show you 'our' yacht,” he said.Our yacht.He was referring to his property as ours. Although it wasn't on paper, it warmed my heart.He offered his arm. “Shall we?”I accepted his invite and kissed his cheek. “Please, lead the way.”We shared a smile, then walked down the dock.Dock lights flickered across the rippling waters and the several yachts along the pier.Footsteps echoed behind us... his men, silent and discr

—Mabel—Saturday came in a wink.The stars twinkled in the sky as guests arrived at Dr. Hart's banquet.Cameras flashed behind barricades, eager to capture every precious moment.Across the city, inside a private dressing suite in Alec Rivera's Green Oak mansion, I stood before a vanity as Émilie Laurent rounded me for the umpteenth time.The glam team had come and gone.My makeup was flawless.My hair had been styled in an elegant updo, glossy strands pulled back to reveal my neckline and shoulders.I continued to gaze at the television to my left. At the guests still arriving the banquet in real time.According to rumors, only the top five contenders for the government contract had been invited, alongside high-ranking military officials, influential politicians, prominent scientists and CEOs.Tonight was a display of calculated power and prestige.“Violà!” Émilie straightened behind me. “What do you think?”My breath hitched as I took in the dress.It was futuristic with a mermaid-s

—Mabel—The ride was a quiet one.Angelina's words kept replaying in my head as we drove past the streets of Washington.“Are you OK?” Ruth asked.I nodded, but I was far from alright.Ruth placed a hand over mine on the chair. “Mabel.”I met her gaze. “Angelina sure knows how to spoil the mood,” I murmured.“She’s after your peace. Don’t give it to her.”We exchanged a smile.“Thank you for standing up for me back there.”Ruth gave my hand a squeeze. “You're welcome.”“Are you sure you don’t want me to drop you home?” I asked.“No, please. I’ve got a car waiting for me at the Elysian Table.”We exchanged a grin just as the convoy pulled up in front of the restaurant. Ruth leaned in for a parting hug.“I'll see you next time.”“Be safe,” I whispered.She straightened, and opened the door, then turned around with a wink. “And tell the kids I said hi.”I nodded and watched her shut the door.Ruth strode to her ride, paused and waved as though knowing I was watching through the tinted wi

—Mabel—“Go on. Answer it!” I urged, half-smiling, half-curious.Her fingers trembled as she swiped to pick up. “H-Hello?”There was a pause. Her lips parted slightly, and her eyes shimmered as she listened.“I thought you weren't going to call...” Her voice broke.I leaned forward, anxious.I could hear his voice at the other end, low and tender. It softened every inch of her in ways I'd never seen before.“Yes, l understand,” she continued and wiped her eyes.Another pause.Then, she let out a breathless laugh and lowered her glass. “Really? Of course, I’d like that.”She nodded, as if he could see her, then added, “I love you too.”The call ended, and she stared at her phone, dazed.“Well?” I asked.Ruth looked up and grinned. “That was him,” she repeated.“I know!” I chuckled. “What did he say?”“He said things got hectic the moment he landed in Seoul—back-to-back conferences, that one of their aircraft had an engine failure during a flight.”She drew a breath. “You were right, I

—Mabel—My best friend sniffled over the phone. “Hello, Mabel. I-I know you're busy, but I need someone to talk to.”A bullet of panic rose in my throat.“Sure, bestie. I'm all ears.”There was a pause before she sniffled again. “Can you—can we sit out? Please?”“Of course. Name the venue and time.”“The Elysian Table. How about now?”I nodded. ”Alright. I'll be there in a moment.”She hung up, and I stared at my phone.What could be wrong?Did something between her and Kyu-hun? Or was this about me too?My thoughts spun in circles, so many questions and not a single answer in sight.Without wasting time, I grabbed my bag. I was about to head out of my office, only to remember my convoy didn't come with me to work today.Cursing under my breath, I returned to my desk and quickly texted the head of my security.‘I need my convoy. Now. At the office.’A ding notification signified that the message had been delivered. Then came a text notification. ‘On our way, ma'am.'I exhaled and sl

—Mabel—An ex calling late into the night was odd.What did she want?I grabbed the phone from the nightstand and sat up.My thumb hovered over the answer icon.Part of me wanted to pick up and find out why she was calling Alec, but that'd mean prying into his privacy.And I wasn't known for that.Besides, he'd affirmed his loyalty to me countless times, had proven more than once how he was committed to only me.I lowered the phone back on the nightstand and went to sleep.The next morning, Alec was still asleep when I stirred.Quietly, I slid out of bed, threw on one of his shirts and headed out of the room.I went to the kids with the intention of preparing them for school.But I walked into their room and saw them already dressed up.It turned out Alec had ordered two of his housekeepers to care for the children.One of the housekeepers was brushing Eloise's hair before the dresser.And the other was tying the boys' shoes laces.“Mommy!!” the children blurted as they saw me lingeri
