Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father

S31 67. Don't Let Your Guard Down Frank blinked, thinking harder. “Maybe we should tighten up Barbara's security too. There's the potential for the Moores to think of her as my mother’s weakness.” “That makes sense.” “And one more thing,” Frank's index finger pointed up, “your mother.” “My mom?” Jeremy's eyes widened. Frank put on an innocent look. “You've slept with the Moore family’s favorite daughter. Is there any reason for them to let you off the hook? TAND Jeremy's eyelids dropped halfway. Blinking lazily, he put his hands in his pockets. “Do you think she dared to tell her parents? That would be the same as committing suicide.” Frank shrugged. “There's no harm in being careful. Finnic already knows, and Ava... it looks like she heard. You're impure, Jer.” Jeremy shook his head and walked away. “Good night, Frank. I'll care of everything in the morning.” Seeing his brother talking without turning around, Frank snorte amusement. He seemed to see his old self in him. “No wonder he liked to tease me. Turns out it's fun.” Then, while walking towards the guest room, Frank thought again. H must predict what Victor Moore would do. The man was famous for his hunting strategy. He liked to secretly stalk his prey, waiting until his target was off guard and then ambushing without warning. Frank didn’t want to be caught off guard. ox “Ava, why don't you go with us? The seat next to Uncle Jeremy is still empty.” Louis put on a pitiful expression. Ava smiled wryly. “Sorry, Louis. Doctor Wela said the more support my mother feels, the faster she will recover. | want to accompany her and talk to her more often.” “We're only going away for a while, Ava. Maybe only two hours.” Emily straightened her index and middle fingers. “Plus the travel time can be four hours,” Ava smiled crookedly. “Let's go another time, when my mother is awake.” The twins’ lips pursed. Their heads were bowed listlessly. “Okay. Let's go together when your mother wakes up.” However, a second later, Louis looked up with sparkling eyes. “But, for the first day of school, promise me you will accompany us.” Emily nodded cutely. “Yes! No negotiation on that one. Manda Ava let out a laugh. “Okay. I'll try my best. Now have fun.” “You too! Have fun with your mother. If you feel lonely, just sing yesterday's song. | think Mrs. Connor likes that song. She might again.” Ava raised a hand to cover her mouth. She didn’t want to offend L with her laughter. “Okay. I'll try it later. Thank you for your advice, Louis.” The twins said goodbye, hugging Vivian, Susan, and Ava one by on From behind the wheel, Jeremy secretly studied Ava’'s movement He didn't realize that in the back seat, Frank was smiling mischievously. “I just found out that Ava has a unique smile,” Frank said. Kara curled up her lips at the teasing tone. “Yes, her smile seems shy but elegant.” Jeremy blinked. Straightening his gaze forward, he mumbled, “How could you say it elegant, Kara? That grin is so scary.” Kara raised an eyebrow at her husband. Frank caught the code. “Why are you being so sensitive? Come on,” Frank patted Jeremy's arm once, “you don't need to be disappointed. On another occasion, Ava would have sat next to you.’ “Frank, have you forgotten? Ava has already sat here.” Kara touched the empty seat in front of her. “They've been in a car together.” Frank gasped, pretending to be surprised. “Oh, right. | need to be correct my statement. On another occasion, Ava will sit next to you again, Jer.” He emphasized the word “again”. Jeremy shook his head in resignation. “Please remember your age. You are adults. You already have two children. Why are you still acting like a teenager?” “Soon to be three. And please underline, we don’t mean to set yo We're just..." “Expressing an opinion,” Kara completed Frank's sentence. The snapped his fingers. “Exactly. We just think that Ava is a unique girl. You're the only o who's too sensitive.” Jeremy no longer paid attention. His focus was fixed on how Loui and Emily gave him thumbs up before getting into the front car. “Okay, time to go.” After the escort car and the car driven by Phill drove off, Jeremy stepped on the gas. “So,” Frank continued the conversation. However, before he could say more, Jeremy interrupted. “There's no point in you praising Ava. My assessment of her will not change.” Frank froze. “Actually, | don’t want to talk about that. | want to ask for a report. Has your informant given you any news?” Jeremy's expression became even stiffer. He regretted the prejudice he should have harbored. “About that. Jeremy handed him a folder. Frank opened it. Sophia's name was on the passenger list for the plane bound for Europe. “She’s not here anymore?”

Jeremy nodded. “She was shunned by her family. Maybe that's rainy public anger Quigkjysetisidett e Marea managed to convince people that they had given Sophia the punishment she deserved.” Please read the original content at .

“At the shipping company, th taffy department Riease/ he original EN Frank turned the paper over, just to find the back side of the folde Only this?" “Victor and his wife are still on holiday. Today their extended family planning a short trip on a cruise ship. There is nothing suspicious. “That's actually suspicious,” Frank muttered as he put the folder in the front seat. “That vengeful family can’t possibly just keep quiet especially since Grandpa is gone. They think we are easy prey.” Putting his hand to the side of the window, Frank tapped his fingers His thoughtful expression made Kara also uneasy. “Is their family that dangerous?” Frank grabbed her fingers. His lips formed a little curve. “Yes, but you don’t need to worry. With proper anticipation, nothing bad could happen.” “Do we need to meet them? Maybe with a warm conversation, they won't think of us as opponents.” A faint shake of Frank's head replied her suggestion. “They don’t know the word warm, Kara. Yes, they sound friendly and welcoming, but the truth is...” Frank pursed his lips. “It's just an act. They never consider others as friends. They only consider business partners as tools that bring profit. Only people with the last name Moore they really appreciate.” “But they couldn't possibly have the heart to hurt children, right?” Frank fell silent before shaking his head faintly. “They like to donate. Orphanages, for example.” Kara knew it was a fake answer. However, she didn’t want to her husband worry. She widened her smile. “I'm lucky to have a husband as considerate and careful as you. Thank you for a making me feel safe.” Frank kissed her temple. “You're welcome, Queen Bee.” However, Kara knew she had to increase her vigilance.
