Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father

Chapter 69

69. Who is Sick?

“In all the time I’ve known you, I’ve only heard your panic twice. When your lover was sick and now,”

Wela explained, half teasing.

Frank’s jaw tightened again. He thought that Wela had valuable information, but apparently not?

“I’m not panicking.”

“You’re panicking inside, Frankie. Now, instead of denying it, you should explain your lover’s condition to

me.”

Frank clenched his fists. He could feel the cold on his palms. “It’s not Kara who’s sick, it’s her family.”

“Oh, she forbade you from interfering? That’s why you asked me to check?”

Frank scowled, but couldn’t deny it. “Yes. Can you handle it directly? I don’t want anyone else to know.”

Suddenly, Wela’s small laugh echoed. “My Frankie, you have finally become a very caring adult man,

huh?”

“Stop teasing.”

Hearing that cold voice, Wela stopped laughing. “Yes, I really have to stop now. The conference will

continue in a moment. I’ll let you know once I get the news.”

“Can you do that quickly?”

Instead of getting an answer, Frank heard a disconnected telephone tone. Wide-eyed, he checked the

screen.

“Damn,” he grumbled. He didn’t expect his best friend to have other ways to tease him. “Now what

should I do? I can’t just keep quiet.”

While tapping the steering wheel, Frank checked Jeremy’s car. As his eyes fell on the black hoodie and

hat hanging on the back of the car, he squinted.

“Isn’t it okay if you don’t get caught?” A crooked smile appeared on his face.

Meanwhile, Kara just arrived at Louis’ room. As soon as she pushed the door, her eyes caught her son’s

pale face. He was sitting in the hospital bed, propped up by pillows with Emily by his side.

“Louis….”

“Mommy?”

The toddler’s eyes lit up. Kara couldn’t bear to see it anymore. “Honey, how are you? Does it still hurt?” Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Kara hugged her son carefully. Louis put his right arm around his mother’s neck.

“A little bit, but I can hold it in. I’m a strong man, Mommy.”

“Lies,” Emily snapped with pursed lips. As her mother and brother glanced at her, she added, “Louis was

crying so hard earlier. Grandma and I were scared. A few moments ago, he was still sobbing.”

“It wasn’t because I was sick, but because I missed Mommy. I am glad Mommy is here now.”

Kara smiled sadly at that answer. After giving Louis a warm kiss, she looked at Emily. “What about you,

Little Bee? Are you okay?”

Emily pouted. “I’m still afraid that something bad will happen to Louis. That’s why I’m sitting here with

him.”

Emily leaned her head on her brother’s right shoulder. The little boy patted Emily’s chubby cheek with

love. “Don’t be sad, Emily. I am

okay.”

“No. Look at this, Mommy. Louis can’t move his left hand. He

bored.”

After stroking the cast, Emily straightened her head. “Do you bring a

book, Mommy? I can entertain Louis with stories.”

With knitted eyebrows, Kara shook her head. “Sorry, Little Bee. Mommy was in a hurry. Mommy only

brought this.”

Kara took out Yemon and a car toy from the bag. Seeing his favorite toy, Louis’ smile widened. “It’s okay,

Mommy. This is enough.”

He and Emily received those stuffs from their mother. “Thank you, Mommy.”

Emily hugged her lemon plush and leaned her head back onto Louis’ shoulder. Then, her brother started

driving the car over the cast and then smashed it into Yemon.

Seeing her children getting along, Kara’s lips turned sincere. Only after that did her attention turn to

Susan who was sitting in the chair.

“What happened, Mom?”

“That’s because Louis was trying to save me,” Emily said with

furrowed eyebrows and round eyes.

“Emily was looking for books at the bottom. Suddenly, I saw the

books on the top shelf fall,” Louis continued.

“Those books are very thick. My head would definitely hurt if they fell on them.” Emily hugged Yemon

tighter.

“Luckily, I was agile. I quickly protected Emily and covered my head with my hands.”

“But Louis’ hand was injured! I heard a very loud sound. When I looked. up, Louis was grimacing in

pain.” Emily pouted and ran her tiny fingers over the edge of the cast.

However, Louis chuckled proudly. “Aren’t I brave, Mommy?”

Kara forced a big smile. Even though her vocal cords were strangled, she tried to speak normally, “Yes,

you are very brave and great, Louis. You look after your little sister very well.”

Kara’s voice was hoarse, but Louis didn’t detect it. His heart soared because of his mother’s praise.

“Kids,” Susan suddenly stood up and touched Kara’s arm, “are you afraid of being left alone? Grandma

has to take your mother to administration.”

Louis and Emily blinked innocently.

“We’re okay.”

“Yes, we have Yemon accompanying us.” Emily held her plush forward.

After nodding, Susan handed over her phone. “If anything happens, call Mommy immediately.

Understand?”

“Okay, Grandma.”

Wasting no time, Susan pulled Kara out of the room.

“What happened, Mom?” Kara whispered after they turned to the corridor leading to the park.

Susan’s expression turned stiff. “After the incident, we went straight to the hospital. I only focused on

Louis. Luckily, the security team

checked the CCTV.”

Kara was flabbergasted. “Someone intends to harm the twins?” She could no longer ignore his

premonition.

Susan nodded. “He was wearing a mask, hat, and clothes-all in black. The security team has reported

him to the police. They are

Kara’s heart seemed to stop beating. Her mind was focused on one thing. Rowan’s threat!

“The library manager felt sorry for Louis. He covered all the hospital expenses.”

“I have asked the security team to send a link of the CCTV recording to your email.”

Kara immediately checked her phone. After finding the link, she pulled Susan to the park at the end of

the corridor.

“Hey, Emily.” Louis glanced at his twin sister. “Aren’t you suspicious?”

Emily, who was busy stroking her doll, suddenly didn’t move. Suspicious?”

Π

“It’s impossible for Grandma to take Mommy to the Administation department. Everything has been taken

care of by the manager earlier.

Π

Emily’s brows furrowed. “Administration you mean?”

“Yeah, that’s what I mean. So, are you suspicious or not?”

“That’s what I thought. It must have something to do with the incident earlier. Why don’t you go check it

out?”

“You’re telling me to eavesdrop on their conversation? That’s not

“This is for the common good. Maybe there are bad people targeting us. If that’s true, we have to make a

plan.”

Even though his chubby face wasn’t flushed, Louis’ eyes were still as fiery as ever. Instead, Emily

shrank, just like her guts.

“We’re still small, Louis. We can’t fight criminals yet.”

Emily looked at the door. Her round eyes blinked firmly.
