Forbidden Passion
Chapter 713 Who Do Hubert, Boris, and Noomi Resemble

Cindy thought Phoebe would join her in cursing, but instead saw Phoebe looking melancholic. She lit a fire and leaned in front of Phoebe, saying, "What's wrong? I thought you'd be happy." "Bad people get their comeuppance, and I am happy about that, but," Phoebe paused and continued, "she had a child with Donovan, giving our Ziegler Family an heir." Cindy's eyes widened as she said, "What?"

Phoebe then recounted everything she had seen and heard that day to Cindy. Cindy was stunned for a long time before saying, "I thought I had met the only fool in the world, but I didn't expect to meet another one." Phoebe glared at her and said in anger, "Who are you calling a fool?"

"Of course, you." Cindy was baffled. Just like when Patrick called her heartless, if she got pregnant with Patrick's child, she would definitely think about getting an abortion and making Patrick pay half the fee. "I just don't get it. What were you thinking?"

'Ruby did it for love. But I just purely wanted to be a mom,' Phoebe thought to herself. She didn't even know who the fathers of the children were, so how could it be for love?

Phoebe had decided to have Hubert, Boris, and Noomi because if she didn't, she might never have the chance to be a mother in this lifetime.

Of course, Phoebe did love her kids very much.

Cindy propped her chin with her hands and asked the question in her heart, "Phoebe, have you regretted it in the past two years?"

"No!" Phoebe answered without hesitation, firmly.

"Of course, your kids are so well-behaved and adorable. How could you regret it?" Cindy felt she had asked a stupid question.

But if it were Cindy, she would have chosen to abort the child without hesitation back then. She wasn't that noble to sacrifice her future.

"Are you going to tell Evelyn about this?"

Phoebe frowned in distress and said, "I don't know. If my mom knew she had a grandson out there, she would be overjoyed and might ask me to bring the child back immediately. But I don't want Ruby and my life to intersect for now." "Because of the triplets?" Cindy asked.

Phoebe nodded, "Yes, I'm not sure if Ruby is good or bad right now, so I don't want to risk my kids. Let's wait a bit longer."

Cindy turned to look at Phoebe, "You're right to think that way. But are you sure the child is really Donovan's?"

Phoebe was taken aback. She hadn't doubted for a moment that Ethan wasn't Donovan's child because he looked exactly like Donovan when he was young.

Sometimes, the power of genetic inheritance was just that strong.

"Ethan looks so much like Donovan when he was young, especially those eyes. They are identical, just too skinny."

Cindy placed the cooked food in front of Phoebe, saying, "Eat up. I think Ruby doesn't even need to make up stories to deceive you. You've already figured out whose child it is yourself." "I'm serious," Phoebe said helplessly.

Cindy propped her chin and watched Phoebe eat, "Phoebe, who do you think Hubert, Boris, and Noomi look like? Would their biological father recognize them at first sight?" Phoebe was speechless.

Through the thin mist, Phoebe glanced sideways at Cindy, her expression vaguely displeased, "Cindy, are you asking for a beating?"

Cindy pouted and said, "Didn't you say blood ties are strong? You recognized Ethan as a Ziegler at first sight. His biological father must have the same strong instinct."

Phoebe rubbed her forehead, saying, "The premise is that I knew Ruby and Donovan had a relationship. Coupled with Ethan's birth date, I could basically confirm Ethan is Donovan's child. No one would just look at someone else's child and immediately claim it's theirs. Unless they're scumbag."

Cindy paused for a while and said, "It's true, but."

Phoebe heard Cindy change her tone too many times tonight. She was practically scared of Cindy now, saying, "My mood has been up and down all day. I can't handle it." "Alright," Cindy said and closed her mouth.

Actually, Cindy wanted to say that she had been spending a lot of time with the kids lately. Watching them every day, she felt they increasingly resembled a face from her memory. But Cindy didn't dare to say it, afraid Phoebe would scold her.

The next day, after arriving at the office, Phoebe instructed Lori not to see anyone with the last name Reynolds and not to allow anything sent by anyone named Reynolds into the company.

Lori sensed something unusual and quickly removed the lilies and snacks that had just been delivered to Phoebe's desk. Within minutes, even the flowers on the employees' desks had disappeared. Everyone speculated that Phoebe had fallen out with Theodore, which was why she didn't want anything from him. But no one dared to ask.

After all, Phoebe was their boss. Despite her usually good temper, they were quite afraid of her when she got angry.

Lori stood in front of the desk, reporting to Phoebe, saying, "Ms. Ziegler, Tessa Gonzalez's agent, wants to create some buzz about her and Noah as a couple. Alfonso asked for your opinion." Phoebe paused with her pen, asking, "What does Noah think?"

"He said he doesn't want to create any rumors with anyone," Lori replied.

Phoebe continued signing the document and said lightly, "If he doesn't want to, don't force him."

Lori hesitated, saying, "But this show needs buzz. Without creating rumors between them, it's hard to attract attention."

Phoebe put down her pen and looked at Lori, her eyes slightly sharp as she said, "Is there nothing else to create buzz besides rumors?"

Facing Phoebe's question, Lori mustered the courage to say, "Creating rumors between the leads is the easiest way to generate buzz. It's an unchanging rule for every new show. We don't need to take this risk." Phoebe leaned back in her chair, her fingers lightly tapping the desk as she said, "Have the PR department come up with a promotional plan for me."

"I understand."

After Lori left, Phoebe continued to handle the documents. Soon, there was a knock on her office door. Lori poked her head in, saying, "Ms. Ziegler, Ms. Ramirez wants to see you. Do you want to see her?" Phoebe furrowed her brows, feeling a surge of irritation.

Seeing Phoebe's expression, Lori immediately understood and said, "I'll go send her away."

"No need," Phoebe got up and walked out. She wanted to see what Sandra had come for this time!
