Chapter 1423 1423: Doting parent (1)
In the end, Aisha gave the Branch of Life back to Moon.
Moon was surprised by this and even tried to give the Branch of Life back to Aisha, but she said, "There's no need for me to take this from you. He was the one that gave it to you in the first place."
Then turning to me, she said, "I don't take gifts from other women. He'll give me something on his own."
Moon had a bit of a complicated look in her eyes when she heard this, but she eventually nodded in agreement.
Though it didn't seem like either of them were interested in what I was thinking.
That just put a bitter smile on my face.
But I knew that this wasn't even the worst part yet.
…
"You even lay your hands on the mothers of your wives?"
I was sitting on my knees with my hands up above my head.
This wasn't something that anyone was making me do, but I knew that it was better to do this now than to be made to do this later. Doing it ahead of time would actually help make them less angry.
And judging by the looks on their faces, it was clear that they had some choice words for me.
But there were also some emotions on their faces that I couldn't understand either.
With an awkward cough, I said, "I would never do something like that. It's just that…"
I didn't finish my words since it really was hard for me to say anything else after this.
Just how was I supposed to explain what kind of conclusion Aisha came to after everything that happened?
There wasn't anything that could explain the kind of situation that I found myself in.
After I said this, there was an awkward silence that lingered in the air.
Naturally, Moon and Aisha weren't here since this was something that involved them. If they had been here, it certainly would have been much worse because the two of them weren't planning on helping at all.
After this long silence, Rose finally asked, "Then you're saying that you have no interest in this at all?"
A confused feeling filled me when I heard this as I didn't understand what she meant by this, but to ask her…
Well, I didn't want to die yet.
So in the end, I just simply shook my head while keeping it down.
Since I was keeping it down, I couldn't really see what kind of expression was on their faces, but I assumed that it wasn't good since they fell silent once more. As I waited, it really felt like my heart was about to jump out of my chest.
But in the end, it didn't seem like there was anything that was coming.
I slowly peeked up and found that there were no expressions on the faces of my wives.
It seemed that none of them were actually showing their anger, it seemed that they were hiding it deep down with the way that they looked at me.
But of course, I wouldn't actually say this out loud since I wasn't looking for death.
That meant that this awkwardness continued for a while as I waited for their reaction.
It was just that never came.
"Ba, ba."
We were all caught off guard by the sound that suddenly rang out, but we also immediately recognized the voice that rang out.
We turned over to see that there was this little baby girl who was crawling over.
It was my daughter.
It was also Rose's daughter.
Her name was Lily.
When Lily appeared, the look on Rose's face started to change.
She no longer had the same expressionless look that was on her face, but rather there was a trace of warmth that appeared. It wasn't directed at me at all, but it seemed that it was relieving some of the anger that she was feeling.
In the end, it wasn't just Lily alone who appeared.
There were two more babies that suddenly appeared behind her.
"Ba ba."
Both of them said the same thing as they came crawling over to where Lily was.
These two were naturally also my daughters.
One of them was my daughter with Cecilia, Isabella.
The other was my daughter with Haley, Freya.
When these two appeared, the looks on the faces of Cecilia and Haley also relaxed.
But it wasn't just the two of them that relaxed their expressions.
It was also Angela, Veronica, and Elsa that relaxed their expressions.
Even though the three of them were just stepmothers, that didn't stop them from falling in love with these three babies. They treated them as if they were their own children and didn't hold anything back when doting on them.
They could be considered quite the doting parents with the way that they acted.
But I also had to brag about how smart my daughters were.
They knew that their father was in danger, which was why they had come to save me. This kind of intelligence just went to show what kind of geniuses my daughters were.
In a sense…I was also a doting parent.
But it wasn't as if I was going to admit it.
Not to mention that there was what they had said earlier.
It was clearly them calling for their 'papa', so I was just waiting for them to come over to my side.
Only it turned out that this wasn't the case.
The three of them crawled over to their mothers and leaned their heads in towards their chests. With the way that they placed their heads on their chests, it was very obvious what they wanted.
They were just hungry…
Still, I didn't let that get me down as that meant that they were smart enough to come looking for food when they were hungry.
They were still geniuses.
The doting nature of their mothers was what saved me, but I also wanted to dote on my daughters as well.
What do you think?
