Chapter 142
Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father
âBecause tomorrow is your birthday, Mommy and Daddy want to give. you the most beautiful gifts.â
Louis and Emily opened their mouth widely. As their eyes met, the laughter escaped lightly.
âWhat did Mommy and Daddy prepare for us?â Louis whispered enthusiastically.
âIs it food or a toy or a beautiful dress? But why do we have to go to get it?â Emily shook her head quickly so her chubby cheeks wiggled
cutely.
âWe want to make each of your greatest wishes come true,â Frank said, drawing attention again.
The twinsâ eyebrows pressed closer to their foreheads. âWhat is it, Daddy?â
âLetâs get ready and find out what it is.â Frank smiled mysteriously.
âOkay, Daddy!â
The twins rushed to their rooms. Their happiness was loud as they got ready. When they found a new car parked in front of the mansion, their jaws dropped.
âIsnât that the fastest 4-seater car in the world?â Louis asked in a high- pitched voice.
Frank smiled and ruffled his sonâs hair. âThatâs right, Buddy.â
Still gawking, Louis looked up. âWeâre going to ride it?â
âYes, Little Angel,â Kara assured. âAre you happy?â

Louisâ laughter finally reached the air. âOf course Iâm happy! Thatâs the coolest car Iâve ever seen!â
Suddenly, Louis jumped up and down, circling around his parents.â Woohoo! Iâm going to ride a hyper car! This is the best birthday gift ever. I am the luckiest boy in the world!â
While Louis ran and hugged his dream car, Emily looked at Frank out of the corner of her eye. âDaddy, weâre going around the city, arenât we? And Louis is sitting in the front?â
âThatâs right, Princess. After that, we go to make your wish come true. Do you mind if your brother gets the gift first?â
Emily shrugged her shoulders. âThatâs not a problem. If Louis is happy, Iâm happy too. But I wouldnât caress and kiss a car like that. Isnât that disgusting?â
Frank laughed faintly. âOur daughter is very kind, just like you.â His eyes turned to Kara warmly.
âYes, while our son looks a lot like you. See how much he loves the
car.â
âEasy, Kara. Even though I love cars, I love you much more. I re
Louis does too.â
While Kara snorted, Emily tugged at her clothes. âMommy, if the of us go, doesnât it mean Daddy is the driver? Does his shoulde longer hurt?â She shook her head worriedly.
Frank rotated his arms. âLook, Princess! Daddy is fine.â
âHave you asked Doctor Wela, Daddy?â Emily tilted her head. Her
brows were still furrowed.
Kara stroked her daughterâs cheek. âDoctor Wela said Daddy has recovered. There is nothing for you to worry about, okay?â

âIf you want to prove it,â Frank continued, âyou can sit on Daddyâs shoulders while walking around the theme park later.â
Emilyâs eyes got widened. âWe are going to the theme park?â Her voice raised an octave.
Kara sighed with a smile. She admitted that Frank was the smartest at winning their daughterâs heart. âYes, Little Bee.â
âHooray!â Emily jumped up and down with her hands clenched high. A second later, she started running around Kara and Frank. âWeâre going to have fun! Weâll play as much as we want at the theme park!â
Embracing Karaâs waist, Frank said enthusiastically. âWell then, letâs go!â
âLetâs goâ¦!â Emily left her circle path and ran towards the car.
After riding around the city for a while, they finally drove to the theme park. As they arrived, it was Emilyâs turn that couldnât stop being amazed. Her eyes didnât blink at all as she looked around.
âEmily, shut your mouth! You are like a puppy looking at a bowl of milk!â
The little girl blinked. Quickly, she closed her mouth and smiled at Kara. âMommy, arenât those headbands so cute?â Her finger was pointed at other visitors who had just passed by.
âYou want it too?â
Emily nodded. âThe four of us also have to wear them. That way, we will look like a cute mouse family.â
Frank and Kara started checking around. Before they could find the answer, Louis exclaimed, âThey must have bought it there!â His finger pointed towards one of the booths near the entrance.
âOkay, you guys wait here. Mommy will buy it.â

âYou go alone? Why donât we buy it together?â Frank raised an eyebrow.
Kara shook her head while smiling sweetly. âIt is crowded here. I will
be fine. After all, we will walk a long way today. The twins have to conserve energy.â
Frank took a deep breath. âOkay. Stay careful. If anything happens, just scream.â
After a nod, Kara walked towards the booth. She took four headbands shaped like mouse ears, then paid for them.
âArenât you Frank Harperâs girlfriend?â the woman behind the cash. register asked.
Karaâs eyebrows rose. âHmm, yeah.â She nodded awkwardly.
The woman snorted. âWow, you are very lucky. What charm do you use to attract him? Where is the shaman? How much did you pay?â
The curve of Karaâs lips suddenly faded. Blinking in surprise, she answered, âI donât use charm.â
âOh, right! You got to be with Frank Harper by sheer luck. If he didnât sleep with you and you didnât give birth to his children, he wouldnât want you.â
Smiling sarcastically, the woman handed her the change. âThank you. Come here often. Maybe you will come to your senses after hearing my honest words a few times.â
Kara took a deep breath and took the change. Without another word, she returned to Frank and the twins. She could only grumble in her heart, âThat woman is so strange.â
âKara, are you okay?â Frank inquired as he looked down, examining his loverâs face more closely.
+25 BONUS
Kara quickly returned her smile. âYes.â
A second later, she started putting headbands on the twinsâ heads. Emilyâs laughter immediately erased her anxiety.
âYou look cute, Louis
âYou too. The red ribbon between those ears matches your dress.â
Emily looked down at her red shirt. Then, still with a big smile, she looked up. âMommy and Daddy also have to wear them. We are a family of mice playing here.â
âOkay, okay.â Frank spun around to face Kara, ready to get the
headband.
âAre you sure? Arenât you afraid that your image as a manly man will be damaged?â Kara frowned, letting out a laugh.
Frank shook his head. Smiling faintly, he whispered, âItâs just a headband. Manly or not, you clearly know. Do I need to prove it again tonight? Itâs too long to wait for our wedding.â
Kara snorted. While putting a headband on Frankâs head, she whispered, âDonât you dare. Your punishment is not over. You are still on probation, remember? And Louis can rage and lecture you all day.â
âMommy!â The boyâs voice jolted them both.
âYes, Little Bee?â Kara looked away. Turned out, Emily was laughing while dragging Louis who tried hard to stay. They were already
several steps away.
âCome on, Mommy, Daddy! Do not waste time. Iâm afraid the
princesses there will be gone.â
Frank and Kara burst out laughing. Holding hands, they chased after
the twins.

Arriving at a castle, Emilyâs smile didnât fade for a second. She approached the princesses one by one and invited them to take. photos. Louis couldnât help but do some poses with her. He was determined not to hear Emily cry today.
âDaddy, itâs Belle! Sheâs my favorite princess. I want to take a photo. with her.â Emily nodded vigorously. Her hand had returned to gripping Louisâ finger, preparing to drag.
âOkay, letâs go greet her.â
Seeing Frank so enthusiastic about accompanying the children, Karal breathed a sigh of relief. Her heart felt light. Her dream of seeing the twins having fun with a father had come true.
Unfortunately, her happiness didnât last long. A voice coming from behind interrupted her.
âHey, isnât that Frank Harper? Does it mean sheâs the woman he took on the cruise ship?â
