Triplets’ Attack: Game Over Daddy Chapter 109

Chapter 109 The Wade Family

Banquet Tiana received a call the minute she left the Hilton residence. The caller was her younger cousin, Nicolette

Wade. Why is she calling me today? She doesn’t talk to me much in the first place.

She ignored it, and the call eventually auto-declined. To her surprise, Nicolette called again. Tiana answered it

reluctantly, “Yes, Nic. What’s up?” Nicolette was the youngest daughter of Tiana’s second uncle, Leroy Wade. She

adored Elizabeth and stuck to the latter like glue. Consequently, Tiana disliked Nicolette. It did not help that

Nicolette often referred to her as “the mistress’ child.” “Fels, it’s my birthday today. Why aren’t you here? Where’s

my present?”

So she’s angling for a present. Tiana furrowed her brows in annoyance before replying flatly, “How old are you?

Kids can’t celebrate their birthdays. Did Grandpa allow you to hold a party?”

Michael believed in the virtue of frugality. As such, younger members of the Wade family were not allowed to hold

birthday parties. Tiana herself had never had-a birthday party, though she was already twenty-three. The thought

filled Tiana with indignance. The socialites frequently gossiped about her, claiming that Michael disliked her.

Tiana’s protests fell on deaf ears because these socialites had attended a party held by Elizabeth for her eighteenth

birthday. Nicolette merely insisted, “I’m eighteen, Fels. I’m an adult now. Anyway, be here as soon as possible!”

With that, she hung up, and Tiana cursed out loud, “This brat! I can’t believe she-hung up on me. Where are her

manners?” Then she received an address from Nicolette. Meanwhile, Elizabeth sat beside Nicolette at the latter’s

party. Six years had passed, but her relatives hardly changed at all.

Her aunts wore blinding amounts of jewelry, while her uncles, rather unfortunately, developed beer bellies and

thinning hair. Otherwise, they mostly looked the same. Nicolette had always been close to Elizabeth, and she made

Elizabeth promise to attend her eighteenth birthday party.

“You should eat more, Lizzy. Look at how thin you are!” Nicolette prattled as she filled Elizabeth’s bowl with food.

Nicolette’s mother, Francine, smiled.

She mock-chastised her daughter, “What do you know, Nic? Your cousin’s trying to maintain a figure. You’re still

young. We can’t eat as much as you without worrying about our weight.”

With that said, Francine began filling her daughter’s bowl with food. In truth, Elizabeth was not eating less to watch

her figure. She lost her appetite after witnessing Leonard’ rejection of Jessica’s pleas.

Jessica even went on her knees! I can’t forget how sad she looked. I need to think of a way to help her. From

opposite Elizabeth, Celine eyed her stepdaughter unhappily.

Celine’s rage ballooned when she recalled the beating she had taken the other day. Pettily, Celine asked, “Why

didn’t you bring your triplets over today, Lizzy? They should try the dishes here. The taste is exquisite.”

Nicolette’s birthday party took place at Amaranthine, a restaurant with a long history in Mistwood. Rumor had it

that royal cooks founded the restaurant, and its excellent culinary offerings kept it in business for centuries.

Accordingly, Amaranthine’s food came with a high price tag. Each dish easily cost hundreds. Silence descended

upon the table at Celine’s question. Elizabeth’s triplets were a taboo topic in the Wade family; her illegitimate

pregnancy had infuriated Michael to no end. Michael went from pampering Elizabeth to shunning her from the

family. He would not accept Elizabeth back into the family despite her attendance at Nicolette’s party. He evidently

saw the triplets as a stain on the Wade family’s good name. The Wade family’s patriarch was a proud man. Celine’s

frequent mentions of Elizabeth’s children screwed up the latter’s chances of returning to the family. Elizabeth

merely replied, “The kids are too rowdy. I wouldn’t want them to disturb the aunts and uncles with their chatter.”
