Everyone stopped dancing. They glanced at the exit door. Only Frank made the way through the crowd. The others followed after they got their senses back. Seeing Ava wiping her mouth on the dirty floor, their eyes widened.

"What happened?" Frank approached Jeremy.

Jeremy took Ava to the nearest chair, handing her a handkerchief. "I don't know. Ava said that her head was dizzy, then I gave her water. After drinking, she felt nauseous. Before she reached the toilet, she was already vomiting," he explained later.

Suddenly, Louis gasped. "Did Ava drink poison? What water did she drink earlier?"

"I don't think Ava was poisoned, Louis. I got her a new glass. If the water in the dispenser was poisoned, the guests would have vomited too." Jeremy pointed to the container where he had taken the water.

Secretly, Emily glanced at Eva. Her thin eyebrows furrowed. "I also think so. Eva is a good person now. She couldn't have poisoned anyone. There are no bad people at this party, Louis."

    "Philip, wait." Barbara pressed her husband's chest with a panicked expression. "Please don't rush. We moved a lot earlier. My body is sticky. We have to shower first." Philip's eyebrows pressed against his forehead. "You want us to do it in the bathroom?" He turned towards a door. Barbara pressed his chest again, followed by a light clap. "That’s not what I mean." Barbara looked at Philip shyly. "I still have to remove my makeup. You can take a shower first. After that—" "We do it?" Philip smiled crookedly. Barbara's cheeks couldn't get any hotter. Just being stared at like that, she felt weak. She could not imagine what would happen when .... Barbara shook her head, driving the dirty thoughts out of her head. "Yeah, let's do it once we're both clean and fresh." Philip smiled. Gently, he put Barbara down. "I won't be long." Barbara swallowed hard. Then, she hurriedly nodded. "Okay." After Philip entered the bathroom, she immediately grabbed onto the wall. Her other hand was f

    "Philip, are you angry with me?" Barbara's voice was hoarse and thin. Philip looked back. His shoulders moved slightly. "Angry? No. Why did you ask that?" Barbara looked down. "Sorry if you have a cowardly wife like me." Philip sat down hastily. His hand held her shoulder. "Don't say that, Babe. Everyone has weaknesses or fears. You're afraid of blood, you're afraid of pain. That's natural." "But you have no fear. I should be a worthy wife to you." Seeing how Barbara peeked out from the shadows with her gloomy face, Philip let out a faint sigh. "Who says I'm fearless?" Barbara bowed her head deeper. "You even dared to jump from a plane. Is there anything scarier than that?" "Of course there is. I'm afraid of losing you. Living without you by my side is much more terrifying than jumping out of a plane without a parachute." Barbara turned her eyes upwards again. Seeing Philip's sincere smile, her heart felt warm. "You can't live without me?" she whispered softly. Philip smiled

    "Philip!" Barbara patted her husband's shoulder. Philip immediately held back his movements. "Yes?" "Didn't you see? I raised my hand a long time ago!" Barbara scolded in between her tight breaths. "Does it hurt?" "No, but you did it too fast!" Barbara lay her head down and wiped the sweat from her forehead. "It's already slow, Babe." "Slower!" While holding back the intense turmoil within him, Philip tried to obey his wife's wishes. "Yes, like that!" "I haven't even moved, Babe," he sighed, full of patience. "Not yet? But I can feel it moving. Wait!" Philip froze again. "What?" Barbara closed her eyes and furrowed her brows. "I'm starting to feel sore." "You want to stop?" "No. Try pushing a little. A little bit more. Stop! Push again." "It's already stuck, Baby." Barbara raised her head slightly. Her eyes widened. "Already? Is that the maximum limit?" "Where do you think it'll end up?" Philip asked, half groaning. He began to have difficulty holding back his instin

    "Louis, what's wrong with your eyes?" Abigail asked after saying good morning. While sitting next to Diana, she observed the boy. “You look like an owl.” "Louis couldn't sleep, Abi. He kept thinking about how a woman could get pregnant even though I told him to sleep and not think about it anymore." While Frank and Kara shook their heads, Abigail chuckled. "You shouldn't sacrifice your sleep thinking about that, Louis. Your eyes are swollen, but you still can't find the answer. Look at Emily. Her face is radiant and fresh." "But I ended up sleeping, after I agreed with Emily." Louis looked to the side. "It seems you're right, Emily. Daddy planted the baby in Mommy's belly through the navel. Last night, Uncle Philip must have been doing it too. That's why Auntie was panting. She was amused because Uncle kept digging into her navel." Some of the adults looked down and laughed. Some were stunned. "How did you know Barbara was panting, Louis?" Susan inquired. "Louis hijacked Mommy's

    "Good morning, All." Jeremy entered the resort dining room with a happy face. Beside him, Ava greeted with a nod. "Uncle Jeremy! Auntie Ava!" the twins welcome in unison. Their eyes reflected the light. "Has Auntie Ava finished doing the test?" Louis asked. "How did it go? Is there a baby in Aunt Ava's stomach?" Emily brought her hands together and placed them next to her cheek. As the others prepared their ears, Ava and Jeremy exchanged glances. After a smile, the couple who were still standing nodded in unison. "Yeah, we found two lines," Jeremy sighed. In an instant, sighs of relief filled the space. Vivian and Diana hugged, Frank and Kara exchanged smiles, while the newlyweds wore jealous looks. Only the twins were unmoved. Blinking, they looked at their parents. "Mommy, do those two lines mean Ava is pregnant?" Louis tilted his head. Kara nodded. "Yes, Little Bee. Uncle Jeremy and Aunt Ava will give a little cousin soon." Louis and Emily's jaws dropped.

    "I'm fine with it. You?" Philip raised an eyebrow. Barbara smiled. "Of course I want to. It's been a long time since I went on holiday to another continent. But I don't think this weekend is a good time. I don't want to look tired when I attend Jeremy and Ava's wedding. How about three days after their wedding?" She held Philip's hand tighter. "Okay." Barbara's face brightened. With eyes radiating enthusiasm, she returned her gaze to Vivian. "Is that possible, Mrs. Bell?" Receiving a nod from Vivian, Barbara let out a laugh. "Thank you, Mrs. Bell." Then, Barbara hugged Philip tightly. Her heart blossomed. She didn't expect that the dream honeymoon she had kept secret from Philip could actually come true. "Then if the plane tickets to Europe were given to Aunt Ava, where will Uncle Jeremy go on his honeymoon?" Louis asked, dampening Barbara's cheerfulness. "Yes, where are you guys on your honeymoon?" Barbara sighed guiltily. "Don't let me and Philip have fun while you two just s

    "Babe, wait here. Don't come in until I say it's safe," Philip whispered while stroking his wife's hair. However, when he was about to approach the door, Barbara held his hand. "Don't, Phil." Barbara shook her head quickly. Her eye bags suddenly became thick. "Don't go in. What if there's a trap inside or someone is ready to attack with a weapon? I don't want you to get hurt." Cupping Barbara's cheek, Philip closed their distance. His eyes radiated seriousness. "You forgot who I am? I'm your brother's best bodyguard. No one can hurt me. So relax, hmm?" Barbara still shook her head. "But we promised to always be together. I don't want to let you face the enemy alone." Barbara gripped Philip's arm tighter. Worried that the reason wasn't enough, she added, "Besides, I'm afraid to wait here alone." Philips studied her face more closely. After a brief moment of consideration, he finally let out a faint sigh. "Okay, you can go with me, but stay close." "Okay." Barbara nodded quickly.

    "Philip, look!" Barbara pointed at the candles that were lined up to form a path leading to the bedroom. "Isn't this very sweet?" Philip smiled slightly. Rubbing Barbara's arm, he whispered, "This is just the beginning, but you already like it?" Barbara nodded. Her eyes filled with tears. "Yes, the twins are full of ideas. I don't know how they can be that romantic, even though they are still so young." "Is that sarcasm to me?" Philip furrowed an eyebrow. Barbara chuckled. "No. Let's follow the drone before Emily grumbles again." A moment later, they found Emily's handwriting on the wall near their bedroom door. "Congratulations, Uncle and Auntie! Happy wedding!" There were several flowers drawn in various colors on the paper. In the bottom row, a bride and groom were painted kissing. A heart came out of their mouths. "Oh, this is so cute." "Yeah, Emily is cute." Suddenly, the drone approached them then moved back and forth. Philip and Barbara could tell that Louis was annoye

    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
