Mr. President You Are The Daddy Of My Triplets novel Chapter 278

Chapter 278: 278- Media

Marissa stood rooted to the spot when Nina approached her kids with an uncertain smile. All fresh after her shower and in a new pair of clothes, Marissa could see how her body was shivering, but she thought not to mention it.

Nina kneeled slowly and extended her hand to shake it with Abi, "Hello, little one," she said softly trying to control her quivering lips.

With a smile, Abi was quick to hold her hand and shake it vigorously making Nina and Marissa chuckle.

Nina then turned to Ariel and was taken aback by her face, "She is..." she twisted her neck a little to look over her shoulder, "she is just like..."

"Yeah. I know," Marissa nodded, agreeing with her. She was aware of who Nina was referring to. But right now, she wasn’t in the mood to tell her kids about her manipulative sister.

Nina at last eyed Alex and Marissa could see how her eyes were wide while observing his face, "Perfect replica of your father!"

She remarked in a whisper and offered her hand for a handshake, but Alex didn’t take it.

He raised his eyes to his mom with a shrug, "If she is Dad’s mom why are we meeting her now? Where was she up till now? And why did you let her stay outside our house?"

Marissa was caught off guard by the question. She surely underestimated her son when she allowed Nina to meet them.

"It’s not your mom’s fault, darling," Nina cooed, shooting a glance at Marissa, "Your mom DID ask me to come inside. It was MY stubbornness... and I’m sorry for that, love."

Marissa blinked in surprise. Was Nina supporting her? That too in front of her kids? She was taking the blame on herself.

"Why were you stubborn?" Alex asked her and Nina could see his father’s wisdom in his eyes.

"That’s because I wanted you all to live at my place with... without realizing that it’s too small for so many people," Right now this was the only excuse, she could come up with.

Alex who was observing the elderly lady’s face, nodded at last, in satisfaction, and held Nina’s hand.

"Good to see you, Ms. ..." The confusion was back in his eyes, but Nina smiled and cupped his cheek, "Grandma. I’m your grandma."

She turned to face the girls who were fluttering their eyelids in sheer innocence.

Nina gave the kids a tightlipped smile and spread her arms, "Can I get a hug, darlings?"

The kids stood there with hesitation evident in their eyes. As they watched Marissa, she nodded with a soft encouraging smile.

Abi was the one who took the first step towards Nina and placed her small arms around her neck. Ariel was the next in line and then Alex too followed her. They all hugged Nina who squeezed them to her and Marissa could see how she was crying and laughing at the same time.

Rafael! Where are you? Was it part of your plan to let the kids befriend their grandma?

"What should we call you?" Ariel asked Nina and started wiping her wet cheeks with her small hands, "Isn’t Grandma old-fashioned?"

Nina who was already stunned by the touch of those tiny hands tried to control her tears, "What would you like to call me, love?" she asked them softly.

"How about granny?" Abi asked excitedly, trying to snap her small fingers and failed miserably.

Nina chuckled and nodded her head wildly, "That sounds nice. If you like granny, then let’s keep it granny."

Marissa saw Alex pulling back from the hug, "But I would call you, Nina. Will that be, ok?" Nina furrowed her eyes and Marissa saw an odd expression crossing her face.

"Well!" she muttered, "you have taken everything from your dad, little one," She got up after kissing the kids’ heads.

They all almost bolted when heard Nina behind them, "I have given them warm milk and now they are sleeping peacefully in bed." _{freeωebnovēl.c૦m}
