Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father
S31 80. The Test
âWhat donât we understand?â Louis sneered before glancing at his
sister. âEmily, try to explain it to Mr. Moore so he doesnât look down on us again.â
Emily nodded then straightened her back. Her breath was filled with confidence.
âBusiness is an organization carried out by individuals or groups by offering goods and services to make a profit. For example, Louis offers apartments to his customers, while I offer fashion products with high selling points.â
Victor tilted his head slightly. His eyes narrowed. However, before he had time to criticize, Emily continued.
âApart from that, I also provide services in the form of dress design., This year, I plan to collaborate with several wedding organizers in terms of providing wedding dresses and today, I was supposed to meet with two clients.â
âMe too! I was supposed to have a meeting with a client who w interested in investing in my new apartment. He wanted to s present it. But since weâre here,â Louis narrowed his eyes at V the meeting must be cancelled. You have to take responsibility come across lost a client, Mr. Moore.â
Victor didnât react. He just blinked slowly, waiting until the seriousness faded from the twinsâ faces. However, it never went a
âDo you know how many clients we lost due to your fatherâs behavi
The twinsâ eyebrows pressed together against their foreheads.â Because of Sophiaâs behavior, you mean?â
Victor flinched slightly, not expecting the boy in front of him to dare to argue. Before he could respond, Louis took a deep breath.
âIâm surprised by parents who spoil their children. Their children are clearly at fault, but they instead blame other people.â
âThey should learn from Mommy. If we are wrong, Mommy will definitely reprimand us. Then Mommy will punish us so that we realize that what we did was not good. Why donât you do that, Mr. Moore?â Emily stretched her voice so it sounded pitiful.
âI think because he is just like Isabelaâs father, Emily. Mister Hall used to defend his daughter. But after he realized, he made the decision to take care of her. Thatâs better than blaming other people.â
Victorâs jaw throbbed a little. His eyes dimmed, his voice dropped drastically. âYou dare insult me?â
âWeâre not being sarcastic, but we regret it. We should be working together, Mr. Moore, not enemies.â
Emily nodded in support of Louisâ words. âYeah, why donât we just work together, Mr. Moore?â
Victorâs furrowed brows changed meaning. âOur fields are diffe Are you even offering cooperation?â
âWe can collabolate,â Louis said firmly.
âCollaborate, Louis,â Emily placed a hand next to her lips.
Louis blinked innocently. âYes, thatâs what I mean. Your company famous for its cruise ships, while Iâm good at building design. We d design hotels, restaurants, or amusement parks with a cruise sl concept. People who are afraid or too busy to explore the sea will definitely be happy.â
âOr, your company can collaborate with me.â Emily raised one ha
like a student in class. âMany people dream of having a wedding on a cruise ship. If you provide a choice of bridal outfits yourself, clients will definitely find it more practical. It will be a fun project.â
Victor was stunned for a while. The purpose of sitting opposite the two toddlers was to make them feel pressured. However, why did they even take advantage of that moment to talk about promising business opportunities?
Suddenly, Victor snorted displeasedly. He realized that he could no longer hide his fangs.
âYour condition is critical, but you can still relax and think about profits?â His tone was intimidating.
The twins blinked. âCritical?â
Seeing the confused expressions of the two toddlers, Victor finally smiled. âOkay, letâs stop wasting time.â
He leaned forward until his elbows reached the edge of the wooden armrest. âIf you werenât ordinary kids, you would understand what my true purpose was.â
The twins glanced at each other. âYeah, you arrested us so you could threaten Daddy.â
Victor nodded. âAnd you guys arenât scared?â
Louis shook his head without thinking. The curve of Victorâs lips
suddenly turned into a grin.
âGood. Then letâs prove it.â He took out his phone and called someone. Speaker mode was activated. âHello, Frank Harper.â
A welcoming snort sounded. âWhere are my children?â
Recognizing that voice, the twinsâ eyes widened. Their mouths were wide open. âDaddy?â
Unexpectedly, the two toddlers got out of the chair and leaned on their enemyâs knees. Their chins almost touched Victorâs phone.
âDaddy, where are you? Why did you take so long to pick us up? Louis and I are bored here.â
âYeah, Mr. Moore only made us sit in silence. We didnât want our time
to be wasted, so we asked him to talk about cooperation. But, he didnât seem interested.â
Not only Victor, but Turner, who had been standing near the door, sighed in disbelief. How big were those kidsâ guts to dare to âhijackâ Victor Mooreâs phone?
âKids?â Frank sounded incredulous. âYou guys okay?â
âYeah, weâre just a little hungry. Itâll be lunch time soon. No-time for dessert. Come pick us up, Daddy, so we can have lunch together.â
Before the two toddlers could reveal their location, Victor turned off the speaker and put the phone to his ear. At that moment, Frank said, â Daddy will pick you up soon. Can you tell me where you are now?â
Meanwhile, the twinsâ faces changed. âMr. Moore, we havenât finishe talking to Daddy yet. Why are you pulling out your phone? Thatâs ru
âItâs you who are being rude. I was talking to your father, but you interrupted. Now go back to your seats.â
The twins made annoyed faces. However, their legs moved backwards towards the chair.
âSo, you want to pick up your kids?â Victor asked in a teasing tone
âNo need to make small talk. Just say what you want!â
With his gaze fixed on the twins, Victor raised the corners of his lips. They are smart and sweet children. At first, I intended to threaten you with their lives. But after learning about their rare qualities, I think
there is a more profitable option.â
The twins fell silent. Their eyes widened slightly and their lips pursed. Victor was amused by the reaction. âAre you ready to hear your fate, Kids?â
âYour business is with me. Why do you involve those innocent children?â shouted the voice that penetrated the speaker.
Meanwhile, Louis blinked stiffly. âAre you going to throw us into the sea and make us shark food?â His voice was tense.
Victor shook his head. âThere are many people who hope to have children but canât. They are willing to pay whatever it takes to have children, especially good quality ones like you.â
âIsnât that child trafficking? You could get into trouble if you sell us, Mr. Moore,â Emily scolded in a sweet voice.
âAnd even if you sell us, we will rebel and find our own way home. We are smart kids.â
Victor shook his head faintly. âNo, if I brainwash you. You wonât rebel if you donât remember your biological parents. You will consider the person who bought you to be your own parent.â
