Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father
S31 68. Anticipate the Attacks
âOh? Why is it so quiet here?â Louis said as he jumped out of the car.
Kara immediately stretched out her hand to keep him. âItâs a holiday, Louis. The zoo is only giving us access.â
Emily, who had just come out, opened her mouth wide. âWe are exclusive guests?â
Hearing a four year old child say that word, Diana was amazed. âWow,
youâre so smart, Emily. When I was your age, I didnât know what exclusive was.â
Emily smiled. âThank you, Grandma.â Holding Dianaâs hand, she waited for Barbara and Abigail to get out of the back seat.
âSo, what animal should we see first? Should we go straight to the stables?â Louis jumped up with burning enthusiasm.
Emily looked up. âGrandma, what do you want to see?â
âHorses are fine too.â
âIn the route to the stables, we will meet lots of animals, Little How about we just follow the path?â
The twinsâ eyes lit up. âGood idea, Mommy. Come on, Grandma. L start our adventure.â
While the two toddlers were walking with Diana, Kara approached Frank who was still staring at the trees.
âWhatâs wrong, Frank?â
The man blinked. Seeing the furrow in Karaâs brows, he quickly shoo his head. âNothing. Come on in.â He put her arm around Karaâs wais following Ava and Abigail who were behind Diana.
After only a few steps, suddenly, a sound resembling a gun shot came from the trees. When they turned their heads, hundreds of drones were hovering in the air. The guards immediately gathered around them, anticipating an attack.
Meanwhile, the twins immediately thought of the Moore family cruise ship. Their father proposed to their mother there, also using a drone. Sensing a threat, they moved closer to Diana.
âDaddy, Mommyâ¦.â Emily whined. Her little body trembled.
Frank and Kara rushed over to the twins. âDonât be afraid, Little Bee. Daddy and Mommy are here.â
Emily and Louis immediately moved their arms around Kara.â Mommy, is that the Moore familyâs drone? They intend to attack us?â
Suddenly, the drones changed formation. Everyone watched carefully. As the words âWelcome to the zooâ formed, they exchanged glances.
âWhat does it mean?â Diana sighed.
Frank shook his head faintly. When the writing changed to Louj Ä Emilyâs names, his heart pounded. His hands secretly clench
fists.
âMommy, why are our names there?â Emily was getting more an more restless.
Kara rubbed Emilyâs back faster. âCalm down, Honey. Nothing will happen.â
After a while, new letters were formed. âHave fun! Enjoy your vis
Emily started to pout. Her fear had reached its peak.
Just like his twin sister, Louis hugged Kara tighter. His face paled, h eyebrows furrowed to the max. He regretted investigating Victor Mooreâs crimes. If he didnât know, he wouldnât be that coward.
âFrank, what should we do?â Kara whispered, still trying to calm down.
However, Frank could tell that she was worried. âTheyâre normal drones, Kara. Thereâs no harm they can do to us.â
Just as Frank finished his sentence, several people came out of the ticket counter. Their faces were cheerful. Their smiles were bright. Wearing stuffed animal hats, they shouted, âWelcome to the zoo!â
Frank and the others blinked in surprise. Even the twins peeked while wondering. At that moment, the drone returned behind the trees. The situation suddenly became awkward and tense.
âWhat really happened?â Diana asked, loosening the smiles of the people who greeted them.
âGood morning, Madam. We are happy that your family is visiting here. The drone show was part of the welcoming. We hope you all enjoy it.â
The man standing in the middle put his hands together in front of his stomach, showing a polite gesture. However, Frank stepped forward with an unfriendly expression.
âWho proposed the idea of welcoming us using drones?â
The curve of the manâs lips grew stiffer. After a few blinks, he at his friend. A thin woman seemed to be shaking.
âS-sorry, Sir. Donât you like it?â Her speech faltered.
âWho asked you to use drones?â Frankâs words were firmer.
The woman grimaced. âThatâs my idea, Sir. I watched the live broadcast when you proposed to your wife. I thought it would be c if we welcomed you in the same way.â
Silence hung in the air. With clenched fists, Frank gritted his teeth. found it difficult to believe what the woman said.
However, before he could express his suspicions, Louis said, âDid that idea really come from you?â
The woman nodded swiftly. âYes, I actually really admire the Harper family. I always follow the latest information about your family. Thatâs whyâ¦
She stepped forward with her hands clasped next to her trouser line. â I really hope your visit here will be memorable. I think the drone. performance would be really cool. Iâm sorry if you donât like it. I didnât
to offend you. Please forgive me.â
Mean
Seeing the woman bend 90 degrees, the twins felt pity. With teary eyes, they looked up at Frank and Kara.
âMommy, Daddy, I donât think sheâs guilty.â
Emily nodded in support of Louis. âMaybe that was her idea. Our family is famous. Itâs natural that many people are inspired by us, including those drones,â Emily said in her sweet little voice.
Looking at those innocent round faces, Frank let out a faint sigh âD0 you guys still want to pay a visit? Arenât you afraid?â
Emilyâs cheeks puffed out, pinching her pursed lips. âWeâve long way here. It would be a shame if we didnât get to see the a
âAnd Daddy said it was just drones. Theyâre harmless. I donât thereâll be any problems. Plus, those guys seem nice.â Louis glan at the zoo staffs. After a few moments, he framed his mouth w one hand. âEven if they attacked us it would be impossible for the to win. Their bodies are thin, while our guards are sturdy. They a
outmatched.â
Diana chuckled at the whisper. âI think what Louis said makes sens It doesnât matter if we go around the zoo as long as everyone stay
alert.â
Frank glanced at Kara. His wife smiled as a sign of resignation. Turning to the others, they showed no objection.
âYes, itâs just a drone. It would be ridiculous for us to cancel the visit just because of baseless fears.â Jeremy emphasized the last two words. Frank got the point.
âWell, then,â Frank turned to face the group of officers, âthank you for welcoming us with such a great surprise. Can you guide us on our adventure?â
Before the officers had time to answer, the twins laughed cheerfully.
âWoohoo! Our plan is still going on! We will get to know lots of animals.â Louis raised his fist high. His face had turned red again.
Meanwhile, Emily covered her laughter with one hand. Her eyes twinkled at Diana. âGrandma, letâs start walking around. You arenât afraid, right?â
Everyone was intrigued by Emilyâs question. Earlier, she was the one who was shaking the most.
