Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father

57. Insults from Rowan

While Rowan’s expression dimmed, Kara’s expression brightened. She looked at the twins with pride. “The benchmark for happiness is not just wealth and position, Sir. Look at my children…”

Blinking softly, Kara widened her smile. “They wear cheap clothes, eat simple food, and need extra efforts to get what they want. They are not born with a silver spoon in their mouth, but their smiles and laughter always brighten the world. Their spirit is even brighter than the piles of gold in your warehouse.”

While wiping the spoon with the cloth provided, Kara added, “Did you see their appearance at the inauguration event yesterday? Their clothes may be the cheapest, but… aren’t they the shiniest? A hard life has shaped them like the most expensive diamonds.”

While Rowan grumbled to himself, Kara started tasting the dishes one by one. After being sure that none of them contained poison or shrimp, she nodded in relief.

“Thank you for this wonderful dish, Sir. I’m sure Louis and Emil re very grateful for your kindness.”

“Mommy, look at this!” Louis suddenly called out. He was ca two small cups, but his steps were very careful. Beside him, Emi brought a larger cup. Their smiles were equally wide.

Kara rushed to help her children put the ice cream on the table. “W did you buy the small cups?”

“We already have a lot of lunch, Mommy. Emily is afraid of getting fat. To be fair, I bought a small cup too,” Louis explained as he crawled up into his chair.

Meanwhile, Emily raised her hand to make it easier for Kara to carry

“Then what about this big cup?” Kara asked while put Emily on her

chair.

“That’s for the Kind Grandfather!” Louis and Emily exclaimed simultaneously.

“Since he already treated us this lunch, we should also treat him with. the ice cream,” Emily continued with sparkling eyes. She didn’t know

that Rowan was now looking at her with a frown.

“I don’t like ice cream,” the old man said wryly.

Louis widened his eyes as he heard that. “Why? Isn’t ice cream delicious and refreshing? It makes our mouths cold and our hearts. glad.”

“Maybe it’s because he is old, Louis. He’s eaten a lot of ice cream

throughout his life. So now, he’s bored.” A second later, Emily slid the large cup in front of Kara. “Because Mr. Kind refused, take this ice cream for you, Mommy. Consider this as a sign of our gratitude because Mommy has been the best Mommy in the world.”

“Emily, we paid for this ice cream with Mommy’s money. That’s treat,” Louis protested with pursed lips.

Emily narrowed her eyes. “I didn’t say we’re treating Mommy. we are giving this ice cream to Mommy because we love her.”

Not wanting her children to argue, Kara intervened. “Okay, thank y very much, Little Angels. Mommy is very happy to get this ice crean

While Kara kissed the twins’ cheek, Rowan snorted dismissively. He felt that Kara was deliberately exaggerating her closeness to the twins to gain sympathy from him.

“By the way,” Louis said, suddenly attracting attention. His gaze fell on Sean who was standing near Rowan’s chair. “Mr. Big Body, aren’t

Sean furrowed one eyebrow. He didn’t answer, but glanced at Rowan.

His cold attitude made Emily’s eyes widen and her throat tighten. She wondered why her twin brother dared to invite the scary man to eat

together.

Meanwhile, Rowan cursed in his heart. He felt like he was being teased by the toddler. ‘Sean is my assistant. He isn’t on the same.

level to eat at the same table with me.”

Suddenly, Rowan cleared his throat. “Sean is fasting. He won’t eat

until this evening,” he answered curtly.

Louis nodded. After reading the prayer, he started eating with Emily and his mother. Rowan only ate a little salad. When they finished, there was still plenty of food left. They then decided to wrap it up.

“Thank you very much, Kind Grandfather. If we already have much

and sister.

money,

Rowan smiled dismissively. “Okay, I’ll wait… until you get that fortune.

A second later, he shifted his gaze to Kara. “Please remember our agreement carefully. Make sure everything stays under control.”

Kara tilted her head slightly. “It’s easy for me to keep my word, Sir. Just make sure your future granddaughter-in-law carries out her

mission well.”

The corners of Rowan’s lips twitched. Without many words, he left the cafeteria.

“Don’t the elderly people need to say goodbye before leaving?” Louis said while poking his chin with his finger. “The kind grandfather has left several times without saying goodbye. Is it because we are

“Maybe he’s too busy, Louis,” Emily shook her head slowly. “Her mind must have been so full that he forgot to say goodbye.”

Kara smiled wryly. Her children were too innocent to understand the meaning of hatred. They didn’t even understand that lunch was

actually a form of insult and warning.

“Little Bees, how about we go see Grandma now?” Kara tried to divert the twins’ thoughts. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Yeah! I can’t wait to tell Grandma about our experience,” Louis said while holding Kara’s hand.

“If Grandma still enjoys her lunch, this can be an additional side dish. But, is it okay if Grandma eats our leftovers?” Emily furrowed her brows, thinking.

Louis suddenly snatched the package from Emily’s hand. “This is not leftovers, Emily. We moved the side dishes to our own plates before eating them. So, it’s not a problem.”

Kara secretly smiled in pity. She felt guilty because she could not provide a better life for her family.

‘Should I use the 720.000 now? Besides, I have fulfilled my obligations.’

However, remembering where the money came from, she shook her head and let out a faint sigh.

‘No. I have to return the money later. Now, I’d better pray that Isabela can win Frank’s heart soon. That way, I can be free and look for a more decent job.”

breath. “I was waiting for Kara to arrive, but why did this witch come instead?” he grumbled without taking his eyes off the document.

Isabela didn’t hear the murmur. She strolled casually towards Frank’s desk, then sat on the edge.

“What are you working on, Hubby?” She checked the papers the CEO

was studying.

“I have a lot of business to do. If you just want to bother me, you’d better go,” Frank said in a low, emphasized voice.

Isabela snorted sarcastically, but a small smile was still on her face. You don’t need to talk harshly to cover up your embarrassment, Hubby. I can understand that. Yesterday, you were still affected by her instigation. But now

Isabela pressed Frank’s shoulder with her slender fingers. “I’m glad you’ve woken up. The woman who deserves you is me, not that cheap girl.”

“Who are you calling cheap?” Frank finally met Isabela’s gaze with a sharp look. His tone sounded displeased.
