Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father
S31 77. Bad News
Kara rubbed Barbaraâs face patiently. âThen, letâs go home. The
sooner we get there, the sooner your brother can save them. You
donât want to waste time, right? Every second is precious for Philip. Donât let it be too late to save him becauseâ¦.â
Kara deliberately let the sentence hung. Her tactic succeeded in suppressing Barbaraâs sobs.
âBecause what?â Barbara choked on her own breath. âNo. You canât be late in saving Philip.â
âThen stand up!â Frank grabbed Barbaraâs other arm.
Just at that moment, the phone in his pocket rang and a guard barged in with a pale face.
âSir, we got bad news!â
Everyone in the room held their breath. âWhat is it?â
âWeâve checked the list of car accidents that happened today.â
Frankâs eyes widened. âIs one of them Philipâs car?â
The guard sighed heavily. âNo, but there is a report that has ju in. There was a series of accidents due to a truck load contain wooden blocks collapsing. The nearest car tried to avoid it. But because it hit the road divider, the car overturned and hit the as
Frankâs heart pounded. âAnd then?â
âWe havenât got the license plate number yet, but itâs the same cal Philipâs.â
Frankâs eyes spontaneously widened. âThen what are you waiting f Quickly send the Cheetah team to check the situation there!â
âWeâve done it, Sir, but the problem isâ¦.â
Barbaraâs eyes trembled. A bad feeling loomed over her heart. âWhat happened to the car driver?â
The guard lowered his gaze. âThe car exploded. Everything was burnt to the ground. We havenât heard anything else about the driver.â
Barbara immediately covered her mouth with one hand. Tears fell without having time to touch her cheeks.
âPhilipâ¦.â She shook her head in disapproval. âPhilip!â
After a few sobs, Barbaraâs knees weakened. Frank quickly sat her back on the sofa.
âBrother, what should we do? Iâm not ready to lose Philip. He has promised to live with me. He has to keep his word.â
While grimacing, Kara rubbed Barbaraâs arm. âNo, Barbara. It might not be Philipâs car.â
âBut itâs the same type of carâ¦.â
While Kara was busy calming Barbara down, Frank checked his phone. There was one missed call there.
âWhy did Wela call me?â
His thoughts immediately went to Ava and Jeremy. He immed called back.
âWhatâs wrong, Wela?â
The doctor sighed heavily. âFrank, was stuck in a very long traf jam. Out of curiosity, I went down to check it out.â
Frankâs heart rate instantly doubled. âSo?â
âI was shocked when I saw Philipâs car. I immediately ran to check i
But⦠butâ¦.
Frank closed his eyes, knowing what was next. âIs Rony with you?â
Welaâs sobs could be heard. âNo. Iâm alone.â
âThen, can you confirm whether there is anyone in there? Maybe⦠he might have gotten out before the explosion happened.â
Barbara widened her eyes at that sentence. She moved her seat forward. Her back straightened, her face turned pale. âIs that really Philipâs car? It was Philipâs car that exploded?â
Before Frank could answer, Barbaraâs body went limp. If Kara hadnât been quick to pull her, she would have fallen to the floor.
âBarbara?â Kara glanced at the guards on standby, asking for help.
Meanwhile, Frank pinched the bridge of his nose. âYes, thatâs all, Wela. Can you help me?â
âYes, but I have to wait for the firefighters to put out the fire. They just
arrived.â
After thanking her and ending the call, Frank rubbed his forehead. With teary eyes, he saw his sister lying weakly on the sofa and
wife.
âThereâs still a chance for Philip to survive, right?â Kara said softly.
Frank nodded. âIâm sure he must have gotten out before the explos happened. Itâs been a few minutes since the accident.â
âOh, Frank,â Kara snuggled up with her husband. At that moment, Frank realized that her body was shaking.
âThe Moore family is truly sadistic. Will Louis and Emily be okay?â Kara couldnât contain her worry any longer.
âYeah, theyâre smart kids. Theyâll definitely survive.â
âHas the investigation team managed to track them down?â
Frank pursed his mouth. He did not dare to lie, nor did he dare to tell
the truth.
Just as Karaâs hopes were dashed, Frankâs phone rang again. Seeing the name that appeared, they both gasped.
âLouis?â
While taking the call and turning on speaker mode, Frank walked quickly to his computer. âBuddy?â
âDaddy,â the twinsâ voices greeted.
A sigh of relief immediately escaped Karaâs mouth. âLittle Angels, how are you guys?â
âWeâre fine, Mommy. I just finished removing the tape on Emilyâs hands. Now, Emily is working hard to remove mine. With the key chain that Daddy gave us!â
Karaâs worries surfaced again. âDuct tape?â
âYeah, the criminals tied our hands before putting us in a white box car. Their leaderâs name was Turner. But strangely, he didnât look strong. His men looked like thugs. Although, I donât think they experienced in kidnapping.â
Suddenly, Emilyâs gasp was heard. She had difficulty speaking her hands constantly moving. âIn fact, if Sean fights, Iâm sure they all lose. But they are holding Seanâs family back. Sean must be af that his family will get hurt.â
Karaâs eyebrows furrowed. âYou guys met Seanâs family?â
âSean was forced to kidnap us to save his family, Mommy. But Iâm afraid they wonât survive. When the car took us, there was a big explosion. Can Daddy send someone to help them?â
âWhere is Sean switching you guys with his family?â Frank asked while fiddling with his computer.
âI donât know, Daddy. I didnât pay much attention to the road. But it was an old two-story abandoned building. Maybe it used to be a
factory.â
âI saw a lot of cargo cars on the road earlier. I think we were heading towards the port,â Emily added, still sighing.
âOh, yes! Now I remember.â Louis explained what buildings he had seen earlier.
âOkay, I will send help there. The loud explosion you heard earlier should have been heard by other people. There must have been reports about it. You donât need to worry about Sean and his family.â
âWhen will Daddy come to pick us up?â
Frank was silent for a moment. His eyes moved swiftly to study the direction of Louisâ GPS movement.
âKids, can you check the situation around you? I have got your
location, but I need clearer information. I need to guess where the car is taking you.â
Right at that moment, Louis let out a sigh of relief. âFinallyâ¦. Emily. Emily managed to untie me, Daddy, Mommy.â
While Kara covered her bitter smile with her hands, Frank no Good. Now tell me whatâs in there.â
Silence hung for a moment. Louisâs muttering was occasionally heard. âThere were only lights, safety instructions, big white bo stacked in the corner. But there was no writing.â
âCan you guys check whatâs inside?â
âWait a minute.â
The twins started whispering, working together to lift the cover which made a squeak. Frank and Kara waited with pounding hearts.
