“Your boss is me! Not Kara! Why are you even listening to her words? You secretly have feelings for her, hmm? You even dared to take her home without my knowledge!” Frank shouted, shaking every bone in his assistant's body.

Jeremy's face turned pale. He didn't dare to fight back. Blinking, he restrained himself from doing anything other than shaking his head.

“No, Sir. I couldn't possibly dare. I know you love her.”

"So what? Do you enjoy watching me be a bad father? Are you happy that your annoying boss finally failed?”

Jeremy looked at Frank in despair. He didn't know what expression to show. “It's not like that, Sir.”

“You know that I believe in you, right? I even shared my concerns and asked for your advice. But instead, you reply me in this despicable way? You have played a part in separating me from my children!"

Frank pushed the assistant with maximum strength. Jeremy immediately landed on his waist and elbows.

Watching that from a distance, Kara's eyes widened. She had

    "Mr. Harper," the detective said as he closed the notebook and rose from his chair. The twins turned to the side. As soon as they found Frank, Emily's lips widened, while Louis pouted. “Mister Kind, are you done with your business? We have finished the interrogation.” “He doesn't need to be questioned, Emily. He didn't know anything. Big bosses usually only rely on their men." Frank snorted sadly. He wondered why Louis was so sentimental towards him. Conquering his heart seemed to be more difficult than Kara’s. “Louis, you can't talk like that. Remember! He's the one who found us up there," Emily said in a half-whisper. The corners of Frank's lips curled up again. At least, he had one person on his side. "So, how far has your investigation gone?" he asked Carlos. The detective put his hands on his hips. “We have just investigated the car used by the kidnapper. It turns out ...." Carlos' jaw tightened. “The plate number does not match the registered vehicle. He had obviously s

    “Trust me, Kara. I can protect Louis and Emily.” Frank nodded reassuringly. Kara felt really tired. She shook her head helplessly. “Why do you insist on helping me? They are not your children. You will only create rumors, threatening your marriage and your reputation. Not to mention your grandfather who won’t let me live peacefully.” Without paying attention to the situation around him, Frank cupped Kara's cheek. “Do you still not understand? I do love you, Kara. Whatever you think is important is also important to me, including the children you adopted.” He actually believed that Louis and Emily were their biological children. However, if Kara forced him to believe the lie, then he would obey for a while. “You're the one who doesn't understand. Your love is just an illusion, Frank Harper. You don't really love me. All that's in your heart is guilt and pity. You've misunderstood it." Frank sighed faintly. His head shook slowly. However, before he could argue, Kara continued speak

    “Is that true, Mister Kind? You don't like Mommy?” Emily asked in a heart-wrenching voice. “No … yes ….” Confusion clouded Frank's mind. He knew Kara was very stubborn, but he didn't expect that she would have the heart to instigate her children too. Bending his knees, he held Emily's tiny hand. “What your mother said is just her opinion, not mine. Of course I like your Mommy.” Frank glanced at Louis who was also paying attention to him. “Your mother is a very beautiful and soft-hearted woman. But on the other hand, she is also firm and strong. She is independent and she has strong principles. It's impossible for anyone not to like her." Kara got tightness in her chest. Her shoulders rose and fell, struggling to hold her rumbling breath. She never imagined the man would dare to confess his feelings for her in front of the twins. Secretly, she looked at the CEO out of the corner of her eye. Once she found sincerity, she could only take a deep breath. ‘There's no point in loving

    At the hospital, Kara did not allow Frank to enter. The man could only see Louis through the window. Observing how tightly the boy held Kara's hand, his chest tightened. He also wanted to sit there, accompany Louis and erase his fears, but couldn’t. “Mister Kind? What are you doing here?" Frank turned around. Apparently, a little girl was looking up at him with round eyes. Beside her, her grandmother stood with a tired face. “Emily? Mrs. Martin?” Susan smiled slightly. “Mr. Harper, may I leave Emily with you for a moment? I need to buy food.” Frank's eyebrows rose. He glanced at the assistant. “Jeremy ….” The man in the suit rushed over to Susan. “What would you like to order, Madam? I can buy it for you.” "No, no," Susan shook her head quickly. "Thank you. I can buy it myself. We've troubled you too much. If you don't mind, could you accompany Emily for a moment?” The little girl smiled faintly. It seemed that it was her idea. “I have something to discuss with you, Mister Ki

    As he opened the first photo, Frank's defense immediately faltered. He could barely even breathe. Kara looked thin even though her belly was a bit protruded. She was smiling, but her eyebags showed sadness.In the second photo, her weight had even decreased drastically. The light make-up on her face couldn't cover her tiredness and what was even more heartbreaking, she was wearing a restaurant waiter's uniform."Kara works during her pregnancy?"Frank looked up and took a deep breath. He hoped that the pressure in his chest could be reduced. However, tears welled up in his eyes."If only I hadn't left her, she wouldn't have had to work like this."Frank swallowed hard, but his mouth was dry. His throat felt sore. Clenching his fists, he tried to stay upright and look at the next photos.Kara changed uniforms several times before finally wearing hospital clothes. She looked very pale with bloodshot eyes. Frank didn't have the heart to look at it. He knew it was seconds before Kara gave

    Everyone suddenly turned around. At that moment, Susan came in carrying several bags. "Let's see whether your plan is just a talk or not." "Grandma!" Emily ran to hug Susan. Instead of saying hello, Louis pursed his lips and emphasized his head movements. "It's not a difficult thing, Grandma. Just wait and see. I can sit pretty all day." "Okay. Let’s see ...." Chuckling, Susan stroked the head of the grandchild who was still holding her leg. "Princess, are you hungry? Sorry Grandma is a bit late." Emily shook her head slowly as if she was afraid her hair would get messy. "The nurse who delivered food to Louis gave me milk. She's my new fan. I have to appreciate her gift. So, I drank it straight away." "A new fan?" Susan raised an eyebrow and glanced at Kara. Kara snorted a smile. After taking the bag containing their dirty clothes, she kissed the twins' heads, one by one. "Little Angels, Mommy has to leave now. Mom, please take extra care of Louis and Emily because they have m

    "I don’t bother at all, Mrs. Martin. I actually enjoy preparing gifts for your sweet grandchildren." A second later, Frank glanced at the last bags on the couch. "I also bought some books. I heard that Louis and Emily like reading, and some biscuits and supplements. Taking care of a sick family member must be troublesome and drains energy." "But I'm not troublesome. I don't need to be taken care of too much." Louis' brows furrowed deeply. Frank smiled crookedly. "Yes, you're not physically troublesome. But mentally, I'm sure your mother and grandmother are exhausted." "That's right. I'm mentally tired. Thinking about Louis' condition drains my energy. I can't even sleep soundly. Worrying about something is very tiring," Emily said, brushing her hair from her shoulders. Frank smiled at her behavior. "Because of that," the little girl turned her gaze to her brother, "get well quickly, Louis. Don't move too much." "I am sitting still." Louis rolled his eyes. He wondered why everyon

    "Give me a chance, Kara," Frank whispered pitifully. "Let me prove that I can make you happy. You have become the most important person in my life, as have the twins and your mother. I can protect you all." Kara looked down and closed her eyes again. She hated why she was so weak. "Hey," Frank lifted her dropped chin with the side of his forefinger, "it's okay if you're afraid. That's normal. But at least, don't close your heart for me. There is still hope for us together. We can cultivate it." Kara stayed still, reading Frank's expression. Finding no falsehood, she shook her head weakly. "I can't. It's too risky." Frank was stunned. His heart fluttered strangely. He was happy because Kara indirectly admitted her feelings. However, on the other hand, he was angry because his grandfather was still an obstacle. "What if I could change things? Would you open your heart for me? Give me the chance to start all over again?" Kara swallowed hard. She knew Frank would never give up. "Pr

    Philip rushed in and grabbed Barbara's hand. Before he could say anything, Barbara was pushing again. After Briony came out, Barbara breathed a sigh of relief. “Philip .... Our child has been born.”Even though his head was nodding, Philip blinked in confusion. His mouth was agape, not knowing how to respond. "Yes ...," he sighed after a few moments. Briony's cries helped him regain his senses. "Wow," Philip blinked. He bent down, stroking his wife's hair with mixed feelings. "You're so great, Babe. You can give birth that fast." Barbara smiled proudly. "Our efforts weren't in vain, Phil. I was actually scared earlier. Briony's urge was very strong. But Louis and Emily forbade me to push. I tried to hold it in until finally, I gave in." Philip sighed in amazement and disbelief. Still looking stiff, he kissed Barbara's temple. "You're amazing, Babe. I'm glad you didn't encounter any major difficulties." Philip wiped the tears from her face. "I'm happy too. But where were you? I to

    "Louis, Auntie is about to give birth!" Emily rose with a high arch of her eyebrows. "You’re right! We have to take her to the hospital!" Wasting no time, Louis grabbed Barbara's hand, pulling her to turn around. "Come on, Auntie. Let's go back to the car." However, Barbara shook her head. Her face was pale, her body tense. Her feet seemed to be glued to the earth. "What's wrong, Auntie?" "Call Philip," she muttered softly. "What?" "Call Philip!" The twins flinched. After one nod, they ran towards Philip. "Uncle Philip! Uncle Philip!" "Hey, where are you guys going?" Barbara exclaimed again. The twins braked. When they looked back, Barbara was waving. "Why did you leave me here alone?" Her voice was shrill. "You told us to call Uncle Philip!" Louis shook his head, not understanding. "Yeah, but don't leave me here." While limping, she inched closer to Louis and Emily. "One person calls him. One more person, hold me!" The twins blinked. Not because they didn't understand, b

    "Hello, Orion," Emily whispered as the tiny baby in the box opened his eyes. Her hand reached out, trying to reach his chubby cheek. From the other side of the box, Louis also looked inside. "Hello, Oscar." "Louis?" Emily scolded with round eyes. "Why do you call him Oscar? This is our first meeting with him. Don't make a bad impression." Louis pursed his lips. "Okay, sorry. I'm used to it. Let me repeat." After clearing his throat, he looked down again. "Hello, Orion. It's me, Louis. I'm your cousin." Emily smiled slightly and nodded. "That's just right." After giving Louis thumbs up, she waved her hand downwards. "And I'm Emily. Nice to meet you, Orion." For a few moments, the two toddlers were busy observing Orion. Philip and Barbara were amused by their comments. "It turns out that Uncle Philip was right. Orion looks like both of his parents. His eyes are like Auntie's, while his nose and mouth are like Uncle's." "His chin also looks like Uncle’s, but his hair looks like

    A nurse tried to calm Ava. However, the woman still shook her head, rejecting all the words directed at her. She was very weak. The pain seemed to knock out all the bones in her body. Her brain could no longer function normally. "No. I have no strength anymore. I can't continue." After taking a heavy breath, Jeremy bowed. The nurse had shifted. Jeremy had more freedom to stroke Ava's hair which was wet with sweat and her face which was flooded with tears. "Ava, can you hear me? Ava?" Their gazes finally met. Jeremy could see the desperation in those brown eyes. "I can't take it anymore, Jeremy. I can't. Let the doctor take it out. I can't take it anymore." Jeremy's chest felt like it had been torn apart. He almost choked with pain. Stroking Ava's shoulder, he shook his head. "No, I know you. You're not someone who never gives up, Ava. You can do it." "But I don't have the energy anymore, Jeremy." "There is. There definitely is." Jeremy grabbed Ava's shaking fingers. "This is f

    "Look at this, Brandon." Louis placed a stack of photo paper on the table. Then, he showed them one by one to his friend. "This is a picture of Russell crying. This is a picture of him laughing. And this is a picture of Russell being angry." "Can babies get angry? Isn't he still too young to understand anything?" Brandon shook his head faintly. Louis shrugged. "I don't know about that. But when Russell sees something he doesn't like, his hands keep flapping and his mouth makes sounds ...." Louis imitated a baby's moan which made the librarian glance. "Russell also has sharp eyes, Brandon. If he feels annoyed by us, he will glare while furrowing his eyebrows." Emily touched the base of her eyebrows, checking to see if they were the same shape as Russell's eyebrows in the picture. Brandon smiled at Emily's expression. "I think he must be really cute when he's angry." "Yes!" Emily nodded quickly. "He's always cute, all the time. Louis, show him a picture of Russell in the shower."

    "Oh, look at Russell, Louis. Isn't he very handsome? He's clean and smells good." Emily put her nose closer to Russell's face. When she managed to kiss that very soft cheek, she giggled holding back her laughter. She didn't want to disturb Kara who was sleeping in Frank's arms. "Yes, he is very handsome. He looks like me. Isn't that right, Grandma?" Louis raised his gaze towards the woman holding Russell. Susan smiled amusedly. "Yes, he looks like you. Only his nose is a little sharper." Louis' lips immediately pursed. His forefinger pointed at his own nose. "How sharp do you want Russell's nose to be? My nose is already very sharp." Susan chuckled at Louis' answer. "I’m just joking, Louis. It doesn't matter whose nose is sharper. What's important is that you're both healthy." Louis nodded in agreement. His hands then rose to touch the baby's feet. "Grandma, is Russell heavy?" Susan raised her eyebrows. "Do you want to carry him?" Louis glanced at Emily. "How about you try fir

    "Hello, Good Boy," Kara held Russell carefully, as if the little creature was a very fragile pearl. Tears could not stop running down her face. After kissing the baby who was covered in a towel, Kara whispered again, "This is Mommy, Russell. I'm happy that I can finally hug you like this." While biting his lips, Frank also bowed. He stroked the tiny back then kissed his head. "And this is Daddy, Russell. Daddy is also happy that you are finally here." Still with a wide smile and red eyes, Frank looked at Kara gently. Before the pool of emotion dripped again, he quickly kissed her forehead. Kara closed her eyes accepting the warmth. "Thank you for giving birth to our son, Queen Bee," Frank whispered hoarsely. Kara smiled wider and nodded faintly. "Thank you for accompanying me here." "That's what I should have done a long time ago." Frank stroked her cheek before kissing her again. "Daddy, we want to see Russell too! Can we come closer?" Emily asked, jumping a little on the chai

    Kara was sitting on the bed. Her head rested on the broad shoulder next to her. Closing her eyes, she tried to catch her breath."Is there any news from the Twins?" she asked quietly. Frank shook his head. His hands kept to massage Kara's fingers. "You don't need to worry about them, Queen Bee. They are independent and intelligent children. They will understand that you have to give birth soon. Let's celebrate their birthday after Russell is born, hmm?" After a short nod, Kara turned her head further. "Are you crying?" Frank's eyebrows pulled together. Moving his head away so that it would be easier to see her, he shook his head. "Why do you think I'm crying?" "Your voice is shaky, Frank." Pursing his lips, Frank took a deep breath. "I'm not crying." "Then why are your eyes red and watery?" Frank blinked firmly. "I'm not crying," he repeated with more emphasis. Still out of breath, Kara let out a laugh. Her head tilted slightly, waiting for his tears to fall. "Are you sure?"

I hope you live a long and healthy life," the blonde boy said, occasionally glancing at Emily. "Thank you, Brandon. Did you come alone?" Brandon nodded. "Yes, my parents had to attend another event. So, only the driver took me here." After one blink, Brandon offered his hand to Emily. "Happy birthday too, Emily. You're so beautiful tonight." Emily shook Brandon's hand with a sweet smile. "Thanks, Brandon. You also look cool tonight. The jacket suits you." Brandon blushed. His lips twitched to suppress the excitement in his chest. "Thank you, Emily. I deliberately asked my mother to look for the best outfit. I want to look cool at this event." "Your mom has a good sense of fashion," Emily nodded before glancing to the side. "Louis, I think you should try a regular tie like Brandon. You're five years old. It's time for you to leave that bow tie behind. You should try somethin
