The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet

Chapter 1764

Alaric was gearing up for a comeback to Hertha's remark when the door to the children's room swung open, and two little bundles of joy, toddling on their tiny legs, came rushing out, closely followed by Ashton.

"Daddy, Mommy, you're back!"

"Daddy, Mommy, we missed you so much!"

Julian and Helena, like little penguins, wobbled their way towards Alaric and Hertha, their adorable voices melting hearts along the way.

Alaric's previously sullen face instantly lit up with joy. He hurried over, bending down to scoop Julian and Helena into his arms, gently pressing his cheek against Helena's soft little cheek, and then doing the same to Julian.

The tender touch of their innocence was enough to melt Alaric's heart.

"Daddy's back, and so is Mommy. We're getting married, so you'll always have us to love and care for you. Aren't you excited?" Alaric couldn't wait to share the good news with Julian and Helena.

Julian nodded vigorously, beaming: "Yeah, so happy! Daddy and Mommy are getting married!"

His joy was so palpable it seemed like he could almost fly.

"Daddy, if you and Mommy are getting married, does that mean you'll sleep together? Where will we sleep then?" Helena tilted her head, her big, curious eyes fixed on Alaric, posing a question that went straight to the soul.

Alaric paused, instinctively glancing at Hertha.

Sure enough, Hertha's face was a shade of red, a mix of embarrassment and annoyance. She stepped forward, taking Helena from Alaric's arms into her own, explaining, "Mommy isn't going to marry him just yet. I'm still mad, not cooled down."

Saying this, she cast a worried glance at her father. It was so awkward, especially with her parents there, and Alaric brazenly telling the children about marriage, prompting such an embarrassing question from them.

"It's my fault, shouldn't have made you wait so long, but I wanted to make sure everything was perfect. That's why I took a bit longer. Here, I I've even brought the household registration booklet," Alaric quickly apologized, realizing the reason behind Hertha's reluctance. Content

Knowing the reason meant they could work towards a solution, as the fear was not in the unknown but in the lack of understanding.

They had agreed earlier that once he brought the household registration booklet, they could immediately get married.

However, due to a driving mistake,

he had hit Hertha and Thalassa, landing Thalassa in the hospital. He had spent the past few days taking care of Hertha and Thalassa which delayed their marriage registration.

Now, discharged from the hospital, his first order of business was to rush to get married, even before they had the chance to get the registration.

With everything finally settled, Alaric was eager to make Hertha his wife, legally binding her to him.

"Don't make it sound so sweet, who knows what you're really up to?" Hertha rolled her eyes at Alaric.

"Where's the household registration booklet, let me see it," Kimberly didn't wait for Hertha's response, her smile fading as she turned to Alaric.

"In my pocket," Alaric quickly retrieved the household registration booklet from his suit pocket, handing it over to Kimberly.

He had kept the booklet on him at all times, ready for the moment they could get married, safeguarding against any mishap.

Getting his hands on that booklet hadn't been easy, and losing it was not an option.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

Kimberly, wiping her hands on her

apron, took the booklet from Alaric, flipping through it, satisfied, she smiled: "Good, I came prepared too, brought the booklet from home. Bob, go fetch ours."

With that, she signaled to Ashton.
