Super CEO Daddy And His Baby Triplets novel Chapter 49

Chapter 49 Busted

Calvin would be cruel to everyone when he became ruthless.

He gave her a cold stare and said with a nonchalant grunt, "Stop acting pathetic! I know that you turned down the heat on purpose to make yourself sick. You think I'll feel sorry for you now, don't you? You wish!"

"Damn! He figured out my trick?" thought Jocelyn.

His piercing stare was fixed on her. Jocelyn avoided him rather than looking him in the eyes because she knew she was guilty.

She had been up all night planning a trick, but he saw right through it in a single sweep. Jocelyn was enraged because she had never met a more cunning and clever man than Calvin.

"Stop acting! Get up!"

Calvin then proceeded to the restroom.

Jocelyn had run out of options. She reasoned that since Calvin wasn't showing her affection, she could seek comfort from her two children.

Jocelyn rose from the couch and walked groggily to the kids' room, her hand resting on her brow.

Jocelyn walked right in after opening the door.

The sound of the door opening jolted Jeffrey awake. He got out of bed when he looked up and saw it was Jocelyn coming.

"Mommy!" Jeffrey yelled, rubbing his sleepy eyes.

"My dear Geoffrey!"

Like a wandering soul, Jocelyn entered the room and sat down on the couch.

Jeffrey realized there was something wrong with Jocelyn. "Mommy, are you okay?" he asked, running up to her barefoot.

"My head aches!"

Jeffrey reached out his tiny hand and placed it on her forehead as if checking for a fever. Then he yelled, "Ah! Mommy, your brow is scorching! You've got a fever!"

"That's right."

"Don't worry, mommy. I'll take care of you! You can lie down in my bed."

Tammy also awoke. She jumped out of bed, ran over to Jocelyn, and asked, "What's the matter, Mommy? Are you all right?"

"Well, I might have a fever."

"Your head is so hot! Here, please lie down on my bed. You should get some rest."

Tammy touched Jocelyn's hot forehead before bolting out of the room, hoping that Calvin would look after her mother.

Jocelyn was overcome with emotion that she was almost on the verge of tears. She pondered, "My children are the only people who truly care about me! Everyone else appears to be untrustworthy, especially my husband Calvin. He doesn't give a damn about me!"

Tammy didn't find Calvin in his bedroom, so she returned downstairs.

Tammy noticed Calvin and Beatrice in the first-floor dining room. She dashed up to them and yelled, "Oh, Mr. Austin! Grandma Beatrice!"

"What's the matter, Tammy?"

Beatrice was surprised to see Tammy still in her pajamas. The two kids would typically get up and ready for the day on their own, which was why Beatrice found Tammy's reaction so peculiar.

"Grandma Beatrice! My mommy has a fever. Please come and see her!"

In a panic, Tammy grabbed Beatrice's hand and tried to lead her upstairs.

"Your mommy has a fever?" Beatrice asked, surprised.

"Does Jocelyn have a fever?" she asked Calvin, who was eating his breakfast elegantly.

"Yeah," Calvin replied without any expression on his face.

Beatrice couldn't help but become irritated: Calvin's wife was ill, but he was sitting there alone, eating like a king.

Beatrice had just asked him for Jocelyn's absence from breakfast, to which he replied that she would arrive shortly.
