Steve Burton's smile froze at the corner of his mouth when he heard the last sentence from the nurse. He found it difficult to even say that he wasn't the father of the children. Instead, he tried his best to maintain a composed demeanor, forced a smile, and continued taking pictures of Third-born.
As his phone captured the images with a "click," the sleeping Third-born suddenly broke into a grin. It was as if she had heard the sound of the camera.
"Sir, look—the third baby just smiled...Since her mom is so beautiful, I'm sure when Third-born grows up she'll be as gorgeous as her mom, a real 'country-toppling, city-toppling' beauty..."
The nurse beside him kept praising, but Steve felt a painful sting in his heart. He quickly made up an excuse about needing to use the bathroom and left the recovery room.
