Chapter 99

Frank shook his head slowly. “Yes, we’re going to fly, but not paragliding. We’re going to ride a helicopter.”

Louis’ mouth suddenly rounded. “No way. It’s very cool!”

Even though her lips were pursed, Emily also nodded. “That would be fun, but… is it safe?”

“Of course it is. Now, why don’t you tell Jeremy to get prepare quickly? Philip will accompany you.”

Emily’s smile finally widened. “Okay. Thank you, Mister Kind. You are

the best.” After giving Frank a hug, she ran towards the group of bodyguards.

“Yeah! Thank you, Mr. Harper.” Louis gave him thumbs up before. walking quickly after Emily.

Seeing their familiarity, Finnic quietly lowered an eyebrow. ‘W is this man? Why is he so close to Kara’s children? And where

seen his face?’

“So, what are you guys doing here? Picnic with the kids?” Finnic ra his eyebrows again.

Frank knew the question had a hidden meaning. Evidently, Kara was now looking down while hugging herself, feeling intimidated.

“Yeah, the kids said they wanted to have a picnic at the beach. So, here we are,” Frank said lightly.

“Is that so?” Finnic snorted lightly. Smiling crookedly, he turned his gaze to the woman who avoided his gaze.

Suddenly, Frank put his arm around Kara’s waist. Putting on a smile, he muttered, “In fact, I am the lucky one to have met such a good

woman.”

Kara turned her head to Frank. Her face was still pale with a flat expression, but her eyes could already blink, conveying her disbelief.

Meanwhile, Finnic’s laughter could no longer be suppressed. “You’re still good at tricking men, apparently?”

He took a step forward. Leaning her head closer to Kara, he

whispered, “I’m sorry, Kara, but I can’t let you ensnare another victim. That’s why….”

He offered Frank his hand. “Let me introduce myself. I’m Finnic Miller,

Kara’s ex-fiancé.”

Frank didn’t shake the hand. He just blinked and pursed his lips. slightly. “So?”

Finnic raised an eyebrow. He didn’t expect that reaction. Shouldn’t the gray-eyed man be surprised? Why was he so relaxed?

“Aren’t you curious why we didn’t get married? Once you know why, you won’t look at her the same way.”

Kara couldn’t stand hearing Finnic’s words any longer. Pulling her boss’ clothes, she whispered, “Let’s get out of here.”

However, when she was about to turn around, Frank held her back.” Don’t be afraid, Kara. I’m with you.”

Rubbing her arm, Frank looked back at the man who had been trying to eavesdrop. “What is the reason?” he challenged.

Kara subconsciously furrowed her brows. She wondered what Frank was planning.

“I used to really love Kara. I was willing to give her anything, just like

you are now.”

Frank raised the corners of his lips. “It’s good that you can see that. Kara is everything to me.”

“But you should know.” Finnic’s finger bobbed in front of Kara. “This woman is two-faced. In front of us, she is as sweet as honey, but behind us, she is as cunning as a fox. She slept with another man a month before we got married.”

Kara’s breath started to rumble. She’s like being sucked into the past. But before she could drift away, Frank’s voice snapped her back.

“Then, I have to thank you. Really, thank you, Finnic Miller. If you were willing to forgive Kara and marry her, she wouldn’t be with me now.”

Finnic widened his eyes at that answer. His mouth was open, having difficulty holding words. “But why….

After stuttering for a moment, he sighed in disbelief. “You think I made up the story?”

“No.” Frank took Kara’s hand and intertwined their fingers. true story, but come on. What’s the big deal? Kara was just She’s completely innocent. She is definitely not a fox.”

Finnic shook his head faintly. “You trust her too much, Sir.”

“You’re the one who doesn’t trust her. If I were in your position, I wouldn’t doubt my own lover. I would protect her and punish the person who framed her, instead of making her life difficult.”

Frank’s voice was so clear and loud. Kara subconsciously looked at him with sparkling eyes. She never thought the CEO would pay

attention to her that much.

After taking a quick breath, Frank warmed his expression again. ”

guards ran to get the buckets and shovels. Finnic was treated as if he didn’t exist.

‘He called me a coward?’ With his hands on his hips, Finnic laughed dryly. ‘Who is that person?’

“Hey, Fin! What’s taking you so long? Are you guys talking about projects?”

Finnic turned to his friend who was coming after him. “Project?”

“Yes, lots of people want to work with him. But he’s hard to find. He rarely even comes to parties. If your conversation wasn’t so serious, would have jumped in.”

Finnic’s brows furrowed deeper. “You know that guy?”

His friend’s eyes widened. “You don’t recognize him? The you talking about?”

Finnic looked at his friend seriously. “Who’s he?”

“Frank Harper!”

Finnic was stunned. “Frank Harper? That greatest businessman? owner of the biggest company in the world?”

“Your brain is full of marriage, hmm? You don’t even recognize such a great person? His market capitalization is ten times that of our company, Fin. You’ve missed a golden opportunity!”

Finnic no longer responded. His eyes were too focused on his ex-

‘How could Kara possibly be with that person? And why would a man. like Frank Harper want to be with her a petty woman with two children?’ Unconsciously, his hands began to clench into fists.

“Kara, are you okay?” Frank whispered, turning his head to the side.

Kara nodded slightly. “Yeah. Thank you for standing up for me.”

The curve of Frank’s lips widened. “That is my responsibility.”

“But, is it okay? You claim to be my lover, but in reality you are going to marry another girl.” Kara’s eyes filled with tears.

“Are you afraid of being considered a third wheel?”

Kara sighed heavily. She let go of Frank’s grip and stopped walking. Your reputation could suffer.”

Knowing Kara was worried about him, Frank’s heart grew warmer. With one hand, he cupped the cheek which had regained its color.

“No one can bring me down. You should worry about your taste, rather than my reputation. How could you possibly like a man like. that?”

Little by little, Kara’s lips curved back into a smile. “He wasn’t like that before,” she answered bitterly.

“So now, you don’t like him anymore?” Frank raised an eyebrow.

Kara’s smile turned wry. “I just love my children.”

“Good! If you can, put my name among them. I can be a bodyguard in your heart.”

Kara laughed thinly. Its crisp sound tickled Frank’s chest. “You know what? If Louis hadn’t been glaring at me, I would have kissed you.”

“Louis?” Kara turned her head. Louis turned out to be standing like an

“He stepped on my foot this morning. He said it as a warning. because I kissed you without his permission.”

Kara widened her eyes and let out a longer laugh. “Are you serious?”

“Yeah. If I kiss you now, he’ll probably step on my foot three or five times later.”

Kara’s laughter turned even looser. There were no more memories that haunted her. Shaking her head faintly, she tugged at Frank’s sleeve.

“Well then, we’d better hurry. The punishment will double if we make him wait any longer.”

With a big smile, Frank let Kara drag him along. He knew that behind their backs, a pair of eyes were still watching, and very likely filled with envy.
