Chapter 303 Kyle finds out – 1
Liliana, Jonathan, and all their friends lived a non-gossipy, uneventful life in the next few years.
Jennifer got married to Junior Doctor Cox.
Jacob’s company got listed.
Leonardo stabilized his business and left to complete his studies.
Vincent and Alice McDraw tied the knot.
Henry had a whirlwind romance with a difficult patient, and they ended up in a shotgun wedding.
Henry collaborated with his cousin Amelia to perform some of the miraculous medical feats which brought the Qazi family to the forefront of the Medical industry as they had been for generations.
Terry Draw ended up with his assistant’s sister. Surprisingly, that was the most challenging match as his assistant accused him of betraying him. He took a long time to accept the truth.
Terry completed the Green Field orphanage within the stipulated time. His achievements were widely renowned, and he ended up as the spokesperson for Green Living.
He would go on to collaborate with several charities and manage most of the non-profits under Liliana’s wing.
Eventually, he left Jonathan’s company to work full-time for Liliana. His entire family ended up in one or the other job under the Petrova empire. Terry was insanely strict with his relatives to ensure Liliana would never have a reason to doubt him. He did not want to be the reason behind any negative news about the Petrova family.
Mariana and Liam brought home a pair of twins – a boy and a girl – from a nameless surrogate.
Jacob had a boy, and he adopted a girl of similar age to make them like twins.
Liliana had given birth to twin boys. Fortunately, those boys came out screaming and healthy.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Five years after Liliana gave birth, at 35, Mariana naturally gave birth to a boy with James.
With twice as many boys in the house – the three girls were everyone’s darlings. However, Liliana kept them on their toes.
They would make a fuss and had opened a “Hate Mommy Lil!” club when they were pre-teens. But as they grew up, they always visited her for advice or dresses. Later in their twenties and post that – the girls had a much friendlier relationship with Liliana.
The boys, however, were very protective of their mothers and sisters. Their fathers had drilled it deep in their bones.

Kyle had enjoyed a complete family life for three years. He had a mommy, daddy, grandma, and siblings.
As such, Madam Preston was very upset about Liam and Mariana’s decision to divorce.
However, she found no reason to decline when Mariana brought it up.
How could she?
She had witnessed Mariana living like a widow for three years and raising her children with the help of her friends.
Liam was busy and barely ever home. His work kept him away from his marriage.
He was running after some drug dealers, in some rescue mission, undergoing closed training, attending an honorary event, or working in some drill.
He had achieved multiple accolades and brought the P City Military and Preston family to new heights, but his marital life was a total failure.
Mariana had summed up their marriage very eloquently.
“Grandma, I love you. I will always love you. You will always be my family.”
“I had always seen Liliana’s triplets as my own. Kyle will always be my family, and he will always call me Mommy.”
“But Grandma, next time anyone asks for my husband’s name, I am afraid I will take Jonathan’s name or Jacob’s or James’s. Or even Eric.”
“I used to see Liam way more when we were just friends. He always made an effort to see his friends. Besides, he is always working with Lil on some intel she has. So, we saw more of him.”
“Liam and I were afraid this would happen. That’s why we never wanted to get married in haste. But now we have tried and failed. I can see how hard he tries. I don’t want him to think about what’s more important – spending time with me or eradicating prostitution.”
“This is so unfair for both of us.”
Grandma Preston had no choice but to agree.
She couldn’t ask them to continue to live together miserably.
Mariana moved out to a Villa between Preston Family and Jonathan’s Villa. She kept the twins with her. Kyle only had a few months before joining Military school, so Kyle also stayed with her.
She made sure all three kids spent time with their great-grandmother.
