"Nanny Seth, can you hold Zeki first? I'll just wash the makeup off my face," Clarisse said after a few minutes when she noticed that the kids loved to touch her face. Earlier it was Jahzara and now it was Zeki. She was worried for the kids.
"You can go, Miss Clarisse," said the nanny, and Clarisse ran to the bathroom with her phone immediately.
She didn't bring anything with her since she was only supposed to attend a wedding, but fortunately, Cayenne brought a lot of things with her. She called Cayenne to ask if she could use some of the facial wash she brought and the latter agreed.
Clarisse cleaned her face thoroughly before wiping it dry with a towel.
When she returned to play with the kids, Jahzara was wriggling in Julia's arms while trying to reach Clarisse. She was moving a lot and it was getting harder to make her stay still, so Julia could only let go of the little girl.
Jahzara crawled her way to Clarisse and happily touched the woman's knee before climbing her way up to sit properly on her lap.
Clarisse giggled as she hugged the little girl and kissed her chubby cheeks several times. "I want to go home and bring you with me. You're so sweet. Do you recognize me now?"
Jahzara just laughed happily while touching Clarisse's face – her eyes, her nose, her lips – it was like the little girl was studying the woman who was holding her.
"The little princess likes you a lot," Rey commented while taking a picture of them. "Do you want me to send you the pictures?"
"Yes, please," Clarisse answered almost instantly. "I'll send them to Kath. She'd be dying in jealousy."
"You're evil," Rey said while shaking his head with a faint smile on his face. "I'll take more pictures of you and everyone else. I'll send them later. Why don't you sit together with Luiz? Let us see if you will look good as parents."
With Rey's intervention, Julia was left alone. They even took Zeki from the nanny so they could take more pictures with the triplets. On the other hand, she could only watch them having a good time together.
"Let me see the pictures," Clarisse said and Rey handed his phone to her. "Zeki is so cute. Look at that pout."

MINI THEATER
Luiz arrived with a beautiful woman to babysit the kids with the help of the nannies and bodyguards. Cayenne reminded them what they can do while preparing to leave the room.
Not wasting another second, the pretty woman held Jahzara in her arms.
"Uncle Luiz is with another girl," Jahzara said while touching the woman's face as if studying her. "Which of his girls do you like the most?"
"Aris (Clarisse)," Aziel answered instantly.
"Me, too," Jahzara said before turning her attention to Zeki. "What about K?"
"The one holding you."
Aziel and Jahzara couldn't believe that the youngest would choose someone he just met for the first time. They didn't even know her name.
A few minutes later, Julia came back who, as far as they knew, was their father's cousin. They don't like her though. She asked to hold Jahzara and Luiz's new woman gave Jahzara to her. Even though she didn't like what was happening, she could do nothing but behave properly because their parents weren't around.
"By the way, we haven't introduced ourselves. I'm Julia, Stefan's cousin," said Julia while holding Jahzara in her arms. "Sorry, I can't give you a handshake. I don't want to hold the little girl with one hand."
"No, it's fine. I'm Clarisse. I'm Luiz's girlfriend."
Aziel and Jahzara looked at each other instantly before shifting their gaze to the woman who was now holding Zeki. They felt a little foolish for not recognizing the woman.
"Well, at least, uncle is not cheating again," Aziel said while tugging Luiz's watch to pretend he was busy with it.
