Forbidden Passion

Taylor didn't know what to buy for the first visit to see the children, and it just so happened that Grace had some free time recently and was bored at home.

Taylor asked her to go to the mall together, picked out clothes, shoes, and toys, and went to Lakeview Estates with bags in hand.

Grace said, "Isn't it a bit abrupt to go without giving them a heads-up?"

"What's abrupt about it? It's not like we don't know each other," Taylor said nervously, rubbing her hands. She felt a bit anxious about meeting Hubert, Boris, and Noomi.

It would be fine if they looked like Phoebe, but what if they looked like their biological father?

Grace glanced at her and secretly sent a text message to Phoebe, [Phoebe, my mom wants to visit your house to see the kids.]

Phoebe was in a meeting and didn't see the message.

Grace waited for a long time without a reply from Phoebe and thought to herself that she had already given a heads-up, so if anything went wrong, it wouldn't be her fault.

The car drove into Lakeview Estates and stopped outside the Ziegler Villa.

It was a beautiful day, and Ruby was swinging in the yard with the four children. Hearing the sound of an engine outside, she turned to look.

Through the iron fence, she saw Taylor and Grace getting out of the car. She quickly stood up and said to Ethan, "Ethan, keep an eye on your siblings; we have guests."

Upon hearing about the guests, Hubert, Boris, and Noomi trailed behind Ruby to the gate like little shadows, and Ethan had no choice but to follow.

Taylor stood at the door, tugging at her clothes, just about to ring the doorbell when the door opened from the inside.

Taylor was momentarily stunned to see Ruby, "Miss Adams, what are you doing here? Isn't this Phoebe's house?"

She had made sure to get the right address before coming, so it couldn't be wrong.

Ruby said calmly, "I live at Phoebe's house. Mrs. Reynolds, Miss Reynolds, are you here to see Phoebe? She's at work and not home."

Twins were common, but triplets were not.

"Are these the kids? They are so beautiful, like dolls. Grace, look, don't they look like Phoebe?" Taylor's heart melted at the sight of the three adorable children.

Oh, how unfortunate they weren't her grandchildren!

Grace stared at Hubert, Boris, and Noomi without blinking. The adorable children looked very much like Phoebe, with noses, mouths, and face shapes almost identical to Phoebe's. Phoebe's genes were too strong.

However, their eyes and eyebrows looked somewhat familiar, though she couldn't place where she had seen them before.

Hubert, Boris, and Noomi walked up to Ruby and looked up at Taylor. Boris, being friendly, asked, "Granny, are you here to see my mom? She's not home; she has to work to support the family."

"Granny, you look so pretty," Noomi said, then looked at Grace, "Miss, your dress is so beautiful; I like pink too."

Taylor and Grace's hearts were simultaneously captured by Noomi.

Grace squatted down and asked, "What's your name?"

"My name is Noomi."

"My name is Hubert."

"My name is Boris."

The three introduced themselves, and Grace patted each of them, "You are so cute, but you should call me Auntie Grace."

Once Phoebe and Theodore remarried, they would be her niblings.

Even if they didn't remarry, she wanted to be their relative; she really liked them, they were so well-behaved and polite.

Who could refuse such adorable children?

Taylor was so excited she couldn't speak. Seeing Grace quickly bonding with Hubert, Boris, and Noomi, she didn't want to be outdone and said, "I am your grandmother. I bought lots and lots of toys for you today. Beckett, bring the things inside."

The kids' eyes lit up at the mention of toys. They peeked outside and saw someone taking large bags out of the trunk.

"Wow, there's my favorite Lego," Hubert and Boris's eyes sparkled.

"And my favorite doll!" Noomi jumped up excitedly, reaching out to grab the big box. Grace took the box from Beckett Savage and said, "The box is heavy; I'll carry it for you."

Only Ethan stood lonely beside Ruby, enviously watching them each get a gift and happily go inside.

Taylor then noticed Ethan. She didn't know Phoebe had four children. Seeing Ethan close to Ruby, she remembered the rumors, "Miss Adams, is this your child?" "Yes," Ruby replied calmly.

Taylor sighed, "Having a child out of wedlock, you must have had a tough time these past two years. I've heard some things about you; you are really brave." Ruby's eyes welled up, "Thank you, Mrs. Reynolds."

Taylor patted her shoulder and bent down to touch Ethan's head, "What's your name? Do you like police cars?"

Ethan, a bit shy, hid behind Ruby and said timidly, "I like them. I want to be a police officer when I grow up."

"Having a dream is great. This police car is for you," Taylor said, handing the police car to Ethan from Beckett.

Ethan looked up at Ruby, and seeing Ruby nod, he reached out to take it and politely said, "Thank you."

Ruby quickly invited Taylor inside to sit. Just as she finished making coffee for them, Evelyn and Pamela returned from grocery shopping. Seeing guests in the house, they looked towards the living room.

Meeting Taylor's eyes, Evelyn was surprised, forgetting to change her shoes, and quickly walked in, "Taylor, what brings you here?"

Taylor stood up, smiling, "I heard Theodore moved into your house. I was worried he might be bothering you, so I came to check. Evelyn, has Theodore been any trouble?"

Evelyn forced a smile, "No trouble at all. After all, Theodore was once Phoebe's husband. I have nothing against him. He came here to recover from his injuries, and it's only right for us to take care of him."

Evelyn's words were meant to tell Taylor that Theodore was just here to recover and wouldn't remarry Phoebe, so Taylor could rest assured.

Hearing this, Taylor thought it was unacceptable. She thought Theodore had moved into Phoebe's house and still hadn't won over her mother.

"Evelyn, you are kind to take him in. It's Theodore who is inconsiderate."

"Not at all, you are too polite. Please, have a seat. Pamela, could you wash some of the fruits we just bought? Mrs. Reynolds, we didn't know you were coming, so we didn't prepare anything. Sorry for the inconvenience," Evelyn said.

Taylor quickly waved her hand, "No, it's totally fine. We dropped by unexpectedly and didn't mean to intrude."

After a few polite exchanges, they sat on the sofa. Taylor looked at the children playing with blocks nearby and sighed, "I never thought Phoebe would already be a mother of three kids. It's just that our Theodore isn't so lucky."noveldrama

Evelyn wasn't sure of Taylor's intentions and could only smile beside her.
