Secret Triplets: The Billionaire's Second Chance

Roderic Penn

I stood at my mother’s open grave in the freezing rain, my heels sinking into the mud. The space beside me was empty. My husband, Hilliard Holloway, had promised to cherish me in bad times, but apparently, burying my mother didn't fit into his busy schedule. While the priest’s voice droned on, a news alert lit up my phone. It was a livestream of the Metropolitan Charity Gala. There was Hilliard, looking impeccable in a custom tuxedo, with his ex-girlfriend Charla English draped over his arm. The headline read: "Holloway & English: A Power Couple Reunited?" When he finally returned to our penthouse at 2 AM, he didn't come alone—he brought Charla with him. He claimed she’d had a "medical emergency" at the gala and couldn't be left alone. I found a Tiffany diamond necklace on our coffee table meant for her birthday, and a smudge of her signature red lipstick on his collar. When I confronted him, he simply told me to stop being "hysterical" and "acting like a child." He had no idea I was seven months pregnant with his child. He thought so little of my grief that he didn't even bother to craft a convincing lie, laughing with his mistress in our home while I sat in the dark with a shattered heart and a secret life growing inside me. "He doesn't deserve us," I whispered to the darkness. I didn't scream or beg. I simply left a folder on his desk containing signed divorce papers and a forged medical report for a terminated pregnancy. I disappeared into the night, letting him believe he had successfully killed his own legacy through his neglect. Five years later, Hilliard walked into "The Vault," the city's most exclusive underground auction, looking for a broker to manage his estate. He didn't recognize me behind my Venetian mask, but he couldn't ignore the neon pink graffiti on his armored Maybach that read "DEADBEAT." He had no clue that the three brilliant triplets currently hacking his security system were the very children he thought had been erased years ago. This time, I wasn't just a wife in the way; I was the one holding all the cards.

In the Night Phoenix Hotel.

Mia Yao leaned against the edge of the bed, wiping her high-end single lens reflex camera.

She was neither a reporter or a journalist, but after what she had gone through these days, she felt that she was perfectly qualified for the job.

Plus, taking the secret photos was exciting. It gave her a sense of adrenaline rush that she had never felt before even if she hadn't gotten her target in the past few days.

If it wasn't for her sister's happiness, she wouldn't have experienced this feeling in her life.

Mia Yao couldn't let her sister marry off to a stranger.

A person that she still hadn't met.

He was said to have gone to a business trip abroad.

It had been three days since she got the news about him. He should be back by now. Even a turtle was quicker than him.

If she still didn't catch him here, then she would stomp into the Su Family as his future sister-in-law just to see who he was.

'Just wait and see, my brother-in-law!'

Maybe it was because she had waited for his appearance for the last three days that she became more curious about him.

Ethan Su... Just the mention of his name already brought up hundreds of questions.

The young master of the largest financial group in the world –the Derrick Group– was said to be terrifying.

In just six years, he had built and expanded a company of his own called the Harrison Group. In fact, the strength and influence of his group was comparable to that of the Derrick Group.

The fact that a man could start such a large company out of nothing showed that he could be as ruthless as he was determined and as decisive as he was cold.

He wasn't a good man, and that was something she was sure of.

Mia Yao shivered at the thought.

She was so frightened as recalling the moment she wanted to go knock on the Su Family's old residence just now.

What the hell was she thinking about to meet such a scary person like him? She had been waiting for him the last few days, and she was already drowning with anxiety.

Mia Yao froze upon hearing footsteps approaching her corner.

Reflexively, she grabbed the camera and rushed to the door.

Someone came in.

She carefully opened the door and squatted as she stared at the camera in her hand, ready to take pictures at any time.

As the footsteps steadily approached, her heart beat was going faster and faster. A part of her hoped that she wouldn't be disappointed by the results.

Finally, two figures appeared in front of her camera. Mia Yao brightened up almost immediately. Without hesitation, she quickly took pictures of the scene.

It was not until there was no one there was she able to scan through all the pictures that she had taken.

Mia Yao frowned.

Who was the man in the blue suit?

It couldn't be Ethan Su. He was supposed to be almost as old as her father, but this man looked so young.

Confusion filled her eyes.

She bent over, waiting to find the next wave of opportunity to take their pictures in case she had missed anything.

"Let's go." A man's voice was heard.
