Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father
S21 1. Annoying Guests
âDone!â
Louis walked over to Philip and then gave him his hands. The assistant swiftly took off his tiny boxing gloves.
âThank you, Philip.â
âYouâre welcome, Young Master.â Philip handed him a drinking bottle. Louis greeted him with a big smile.
âPhilip, do you think Mommy and Daddy will come home with our baby brother?â
Philip stared wide eyed. His mouth was agape, confused about choosing words.
âOf course not, Louis,â Emily said as she caught her little pink punching bag so it stopped swinging. âThe mother cat alone was pregnant for 65 days. Moreover, humans. It will take at least 40 weeks for Mommy to give birth to our baby sister.â
Louisâ lips pursed. His brows furrowed as his cheeks puffed out.â Youâre right. No matter how fast Daddy put the baby in Mommyâs stomach, heâs still in there today.â
While taking off Emilyâs boxing gloves, Philip bit his lips. His heart was tickled by the toddlerâs statements. âSo, you guys want a little brother or a little sister?â
âI want a little sister, but Louis wants a little brother. We are still arguing,â Emily answered with pursed lips.
âWell then, I hope your younger siblings are also twins like you. Boy and girl.â
BONUS
Louis and Emilyâs eyes suddenly lit up, as if they had just found light.
âWhy didnât we think of it before?â
âIf our little siblings were twins, there would be so much fun!â
Suddenly, Emily hugged Philipâs leg. Her cheeks blushed as they pressed the corners of her lips up. âThank you, Philip. You gave us such a brilliant idea!â
Louis hugged his other leg. âYeah! You are indeed the best assistant
in the world!â
Chuckling, Philip patted the twins on the shoulder. His heart warmed.â Itâs an honor to serve your family. Now, how about we go to the greenhouse? Mrs. Martin is choosing flowers to welcome your parents. You can help her.â
âThatâs another great idea, Philip. Mommy and Daddy will definitely be happy if we welcome them with beautiful flowers.â Emily cupped her own cheeks with both hands. Her head tilted slightly to the right.
At the same time, Louis hung a pink towel on her shoulder. âDonât pretend to be cute, Emily. Letâs hurry to help Grandma!â
Emilyâs eyes narrowed. âIâm not pretending. Itâs true that Iâm cute. Is that right, Philip?â
The assistant chuckled again. âThatâs right, Young Lady.â
While wiping his sweat with a blue towel, Louis let out a long sigh. Okay, whatever.â His tiny feet started to move. However, just a few steps later, his attention was distracted by the assistantâs phone ringing.
âYes?â Philip put the cell phone to his ear. After a few moments, his eyebrows knitted together. âMrs. Harper?â
Louis and Emily exchanged glances. They both knew something was

wony, when imp nung up the phone, they done mu
wrong with Mommy?â
Philip shook his head faintly. âThis is not about your mother.
Someone claims to be Mrs. Harper. Sheâs waiting in front of the gate, urging the security guard to let her in.â
The twins widened their eyes..
âIs she crazy? Mrs. Harper is just Mommy. How dare she claim to be Daddyâs wife?â Louis put his hands on his hips.
A small hiss escaped Philipâs lips. âSorry, Young Master. You misunderstood. This person claims that she is your fatherâs mother.â
Emilyâs eyebrows pressed against her forehead. âOur grandmother?â
Philip shrugged briefly. âI have to check it out. Would you mind going to the greenhouse alone?â
âWe have to see her too, Philip. This concerns the safety of our home and family.â
âYes! We have to see who dares to claim to be our grandmother.â Louis squeezed his own fist.
Philip nodded. Together, they headed to the guard post.
From the CCTV monitor, they could see a middle-aged woman who looked like a European noblewoman. Beside her, a girl stood with blonde hair with pink shades at the ends.
Philip pressed the microphone button. âGood morning, Maâam. Iâm Philip, head of service and security at this house. Can I help you?â
The woman turned back to face the camera and raised her chin. The look in her eyes seemed cold and arrogant.
âIâm Melanie, Frank Harperâs mother. If you donât want my son to fire you, open this gate right now. My legs are getting numb from facing

Philip raised an eyebrow. He couldnât believe what he had just hear
When he turned to the side, the twinsâ expressions added to the
amusement in his chest. That womanâs arrogance was too
astonishing, even beating Isabela.
âSorry, Maâam. Mister Harper never talked about his mother. Since we donât know anything about you, we canât let you in, unless we have his approval.â
Melanie snorted slightly. Her cheeks twitched. âYou guys wonât let me into my own sonâs house?â
âWe can only open the gate if Master gives the order, Maâam.â
âThen call him now! You will regret it when he calls me Mommy.â
The womanâs eyes grew bigger. Louis thought her eyeballs were going to pop out.
âI donât think sheâs our grandmother She is too rude and fierce. Sheâs more suited to being a witch.â
Emily quickly elbowed her brotherâs arm. âLouis, donât say like that. We donât know the truth yet. She could be our grandmother. We didnât even think that Frank Harper was our Daddy once.â
A second later, the little girl turned to their assistant. âPhilip, how about we just call Daddy? Letâs ask if that woman is really her mother -our grandmother.â
Philip nodded. However, just as he was about to press the mic button again, a limousine arrived.
âMommy and Daddy are home!â Emilyâs eyes sparkled brightly.
âSir, should we open the gate?â A guard asked Philip.
The young man furrowed his brows. âLet me go out and solve the

As soon as the side door was opened, those toddlers rushed out. Their laughter was so loud. Their arms were outstretched, ready embrace whoever got out of the limo first.
âMommy! Daddy!â
Hearing that sweet voice, Kara checked out the window. She startled. âWhy are they welcoming us here?â
âMaybe they miss us too much,â Frank said as he hurried to get out.â
Kids!â
Louis and Emily jumped into their fatherâs arms. Their laughter grew louder as Frank carried them both.
âDaddy, how was your honeymoon? Was it going smoothly?â
âHas Daddy implanted our baby sister in Mommyâs stomach?â
Chuckling, Frank kissed the twinsâ cheek. His heart was tickled by their questions. However, just as he was about to answer, his eyes accidentally caught Melanieâs presence. In an instant, his smile disappeared.
The twinsâ cheerfulness no longer affected him. Witnessing it, Kara, who had just gotten out of the limousine, immediately touched his shoulder. âWhatâs wrong, Frank?â
Louis and Emily stopped laughing. They checked their fatherâs face then followed his gaze. The noble-style woman had just stopped two steps away from them.
âHello, Frank.â Her expression was very different from before. Her eyebrows lowered and her eyes filled with tears.
Frank swallowed hard. His lips trembled to gather his voice. âMom?â
