Hearing their tearful words, Samantha's heart ached. She hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? Why are you crying? Who bullied you?"
Alex sobbed, "Mommy, you are our biological mother."
Samantha had always known that they wanted her to be their biological mother, but she didn't take their words seriously, thinking they just missed her. She said gently, "Silly children, even though I'm not your biological mother, I've always treated you as my own."
Especially after finding out that Elliot was Suzy's son, and considering the ominous situation regarding Alex and Noah's birth mother, she cherished them even more.
From then on, she no longer had any concerns about interacting with them as she did before.
Alex let go of her and hurriedly explained, "No, you are our biological mother in terms of blood relationship."
Samantha asked puzzled, "Who told you that?"
She didn't remember giving birth to a pair of twin sons.
Noah said, "Father told us himself. He's outside now."
Even more puzzled, Samantha let them out of the study and saw Ethan in the living room, coaxing Charlotte, "Charlotte, I am your biological father."
Charlotte didn't believe him and continued to hide behind Grandpa Miller, still afraid.
Ethan patiently continued, "Daddy was wrong before. Daddy shouldn't have treated you like that. Can you forgive Daddy? Daddy promises to treat you well from now on. Can Daddy hug you?"
Charlotte still shook her head, resisting.
A hint of hurt flashed in Ethan's eyes, accompanied by more self-reproach.
Samantha walked over and asked, "Ethan, what's going on? Why did Alex suddenly say that I am their biological mother? When did Charlotte become your biological daughter?"
Ethan handed her the documents.
"This is the DNA test I conducted. The firm results show that Alex, Noah, and Charlotte are triplets. I am their biological father, and you are their biological mother."
Samantha was dumbfounded, as if struck by lightning.
Trembling, she opened the folder.
There were three paternity test reports inside.
The first was for Alex, Noah, and Charlotte.
The second was for Charlotte and Ethan.
The third was for Alex, Noah, and her.
It clearly showed that they had a 99.9% blood relationship.
So, Alex and Noah were really her biological sons.
Charlotte's biological father was also Ethan?
But, she clearly gave birth to twins back then. How could they become triplets?
Seeing her confusion, Ethan explained, "Back then, you were indeed pregnant with triplets. However, because the third child was hiding behind the other two, it wasn't captured in the ultrasound.
During childbirth, you did give birth to triplets. However, after giving birth to the first one, you fainted.
At that time, the children suffered from temporary shock and cardiac arrest due to suffocation during childbirth.
The doctors thought the child had died. But in fact, they were resuscitated.
However, due to the child's congenital deficiencies and premature birth, the chances of survival were low. Suzy then paid the doctor to dispose of Alex.
The second child was Noah, who was taken away by Suzy after birth.
The doctor who performed the surgery on you couldn't bear to do it, so he hid the truth about Charlotte from Suzy. That's why she was fortunate enough to survive."
The sudden revelation brought tears streaming down Samantha's cheeks.
She had no idea that this had happened back then.
Ethan continued, "After you gave birth, you took Charlotte and hid in an orphanage. The director of that orphanage was the mother of the doctor who performed the surgery on you. She secretly saved Alex's life, but fearing that Suzy would find out, she placed him in the orphanage and found a way to send him back to you without you knowing he was your biological child. That's why she came up with the adoption scheme."
Samantha looked at Alex and Noah, tears streaming down her face, filled with excitement.
Are they her son?
Surprisingly, Alexander and Noah are actually her biological sons.
Over these four years, her son has been by her side, yet she was completely unaware, always thinking he was her adopted son.
If it weren't for Elliot's appearance, she might have never known the truth in her lifetime.
Ethan added, "Suzy didn't initially know that you were pregnant with my child. The reason she didn't harm Noah and even brought him back was to use Noah to take away the shares of the Miller Group from you.
Unexpectedly, in an accident, she saw me once and immediately recognized that Noah was my son. She then bribed the servants at my home and got a sample of my hair for a paternity test.
After confirming that Noah is indeed my biological son, she brought him to claim paternity and lied, claiming to be the biological mother of the child.
In the end, all this was my negligence. I only sent someone to check her survival records and didn't take her to do a paternity test with Noah."
No one would have thought that the woman who came to claim the child was not actually the biological mother of the child.
It was all because of this negligence that led to various misunderstandings later on.
It's all Suzy's cunning.
With the truth revealed, Samantha hugged Alexander and Noah tightly, tears falling like broken pearls, "My children, my children... I'm sorry, I didn't protect you well, which made you suffer so much, and we only recognize each other now..."
Alexander and Noah held Samantha's waist tightly.
"Mommy, we don't blame you. If we blame anyone, it's Suzy for being too cunning and ruthless..."
Noah also said, "Yes, we are all victims. Everything is Suzy's fault."
Hearing their words, Elliot lowered his head in sadness, twisting his clothes tightly with his hands.
Alexander came out of Samantha's arms, looking pitifully at Samantha, and said softly, "Mommy, can our family stay together? I really can't bear to be separated from you and Charlotte."
Samantha didn't immediately agree, but she had made up her mind.
If Ethan could let go of the past and still accept her, she would stay with them, never leaving.
Looking at Ethan's eager eyes, Samantha let go of Alexander and Noah, walked to Charlotte's side, and said softly, "Charlotte, he is your daddy. Haven't you always wanted a daddy? Why don't you go over there now?"
Charlotte, however, hesitated and didn't move.
The unpleasant experiences from before made her reject her biological father instinctively. She felt that this father didn't like her, and she was afraid of him.
Ethan knew he had been too harsh on her before. He walked over step by step, touched her little head, and said softly, "Charlotte, I am really your daddy. Daddy was not good to you before. Can you forgive me?"
Charlotte looked at him for a long time before asking, "Are you really my daddy?"
Ethan nodded, "Yes, I am your biological daddy."
Charlotte asked again, "Will you really be nice to me, like me, and treat me well in the future?"
Ethan's eyes welled up, "Yes, I will definitely be nice to you, like you, and treat you well. Can you forgive daddy and give daddy another chance?"
Charlotte, who had been frowning, finally softened and smiled sweetly.
"Since you're asking me, I'll give you another chance!"
With that, she crisply called out, "Daddy..."
Ethan was choked with emotion, squatting down, pulling Charlotte out from behind Grandpa Miller, and hugging her tightly, stroking her hair over and over.
"Don't worry, I will never be mean to you again. I will definitely treat you well..."
Charlotte's small body was soft and gentle, completely different from the feeling of being held by Alexander and Noah. There was also a faint milky scent.
He wished he could knead her into his heart.
Charlotte also hugged Ethan's neck tightly, taking the initiative to kiss him on the face.
Ethan was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes.
Grandpa Miller looked at this scene, unable to hide his pleased smile.
This is what a true family reunion means.
It's great.
With Ethan protecting Sammie in the future, he can rest assured as well.
