Mommy，We Got a Husband
Chapter 369 Another Handsome Guy

"You gotta be Elisa, right? Lookin' all cute and stuff," Tommy bent down, grinning at Elisa.

Elisa giggled. "Yep, Uncle Tommy! You know me? That's awesome!"

"Uncle Josep filled me in," Tommy said, shooting a grateful look at Alaric and Galatea. "My family's been goin' through some stuff, so I needed a change of scenery. I hit up Uncle Josep for help, and he hooked me up with Nexus Innovations. Seriously, I'm super grateful and kinda blown away. Hope I'm not causing too much trouble, Mr. and Mrs. Knight."

Tommy was being all polite, and Alaric quickly replied, "No biggie, just a small favor."

"Yeah, Josep's done a lot for us. How could we not help him out?" Stellan chimed in.

"Thanks a ton," Tommy said, genuinely thankful.

"Uncle Tommy, no need to be so formal. My mom and dad are super helpful, and so are we," Elisa added quickly.

"Elisa, chill out a bit, will ya? You're acting all starstruck," Harry said with a smirk. "So young and already crushing on handsome dudes."

"Hey, it just means I've got good taste," Elisa shot back. "Even though you and Caspian look the same, I only see Caspian's charm. Shows I'm not just about looks; I care about what's inside too." "Whatever, shallow," Harry scoffed.

"Elisa's got a point; as long as she's happy," Caspian jumped in, then turned to Tommy. "Uncle Tommy, I'm Caspian Knight."

Harry added, "I'm Rook Storm, but you can call me Harry."

Elisa chimed in, "And I'm Zoe Hartley, but just call me Elisa."

"Caspian Knight? Rook Storm? Zoe Hartley?" Tommy looked a bit puzzled hearing their names.

"Yep, three kids, three last names. It's our family's thing. But we're legit triplets," Elisa explained.

"Got it," Tommy nodded. "You three are cute."

"Uh, handsome, please. 'Cute' is too basic," Harry corrected.

"Alright, two very handsome guys," Tommy said, then glanced enviously at Alaric and Stellan. "Mr. and Mrs. Knight, you guys are seriously lucky to have such awesome triplets."

"Blessed, for sure," Stellan smiled. "Let's grab some food first, then we'll show you to your place."

"We've got a spare house near Nexus Innovations. Stellan used to live there before we got hitched, and it's been empty since. You can crash there for now. If it's not comfy, just let us know," Alaric said.

"Man, just working at Nexus Innovations is a huge deal for me. I can totally stay in the dorms; staying at your place feels like too much," Tommy said, a bit nervous.

"That place has been empty forever, and it's super close to Nexus Innovations. You can literally see the office from the window. It's just sitting there, and now you're here," Stellan said. "When I was in Country M, Josep had my back big time. Now he's Alaric's lifesaver. We owe him big. He hardly ever asks for anything, so now that he's sent you our way, we gotta take care of you."

Tommy grinned. "Guess I owe Uncle Josep a big thanks."

"Yeah, thank him, not us. Josep's always swamped, so if you need anything, just hit us up," Stellan said.

"Thanks a lot, Mr. and Mrs. Knight," Tommy said sincerely.

"Why all the chit-chat?" Elisa cut in impatiently. "Can we eat now? I'm starving."

Everyone chuckled at that and headed to a nearby restaurant for some grub.

"I have no clue what you like to eat," Stellan said, handing the menu to Tommy once they sat down. "Order whatever you want. If nothing here works, we can go somewhere else."

"No worries. I grew up in Country A and only moved abroad in my teens. I'm good with the food here," Tommy said, passing the menu back. "Mrs. Knight, please go ahead and order. I'm cool with anything." Stellan glanced at Alaric, who nodded. Tommy was a guest and probably felt awkward ordering.

So, Stellan took charge and ordered a bunch of stuff, keeping Tommy in mind.

"Mrs. Knight, you're too kind. That's a lot of food; it'll go to waste if we can't finish it," Tommy said.

"It won't," Elisa piped up. "Uncle Tommy, it's your first meal with us; we have to take it seriously. If we can't finish it, we'll pack it up. My teacher says saving is a virtue, and I'm super virtuous." "Zoe, why are you showing off in front of Uncle Tommy? You want him to wait fourteen years and then marry you?" Harry teased.

"Harry, can you be normal for once?" Elisa snapped. "Ever heard of friendship between generations?"

"Forgive my ignorance," Harry said with a smirk.

"Mr. and Mrs. Knight, your kids are really something," Tommy said, chuckling.

"Don't mind them. They're like this every day, talking like adults," Stellan said.

"They're adorable," Tommy said. "Smart and cute. Having three kids like them is really something to be jealous of." "Totally," Alaric agreed, then asked, "Josep mentioned you studied business management?"

Tommy nodded. "Yeah, just got my Ph.D. this year. No work experience yet, though."

"A Ph.D.?" Elisa's eyes widened.

"Yep," Tommy said modestly. "Been in school forever, kinda out of touch with the real world."

"No way," Stellan said. "Companies are dying for a talent like you. Josep's given us a real gem."

"Mrs. Knight, you're too kind. I'm just glad you don't mind having an inexperienced bookworm around," Tommy said.

"Of course not. We're thrilled to have you," Stellan said with a smile.
