“Mommy, will that wicked woman be okay?” they asked.
Marnie had mistreated them, but they were frightened at the sight of her gasping for air.
What if something happens to her and they me Mommy for that? What should we do then?
Seeing the triplets were worried, Neera softlyforted them, saying, “It’s alright. I read her pulse just

“Phew! That’s a relief!”
The kids finally rxed and shifted their focus back to Neera.

The kids sensed that their father’s invitation was clearly meant to allow him to spend more time with

Immediately, the trio pulled Neera’s hand and pleaded.
“Mommy, let’s go! Uncle Jean has invited us.”
“Yeah, go, go, go! After dinner, we can watch a show!”
“A show? What sort of show?” Neera asked in puzzlement.
Penny chuckled and said, “There’s a ballet performance at the Grand Theater. A famous dance troupe
is on a global tour. All three of us had bought the tickets. We nned to take you and Grandaunt out
tonight, but she can’t make it now. Let Uncle Jeane with us and don’t waste the ticket.”
