Abigail's heart ached. "Oh, Emily, why did you say that? If you guys go home now, how about the party? You said you wanted to celebrate New Year with your friends at the orphanage."

"Yeah, but it's a party. Everyone should have fun. Grandma can't enjoy the party if we're there. We're the Harpers."

Feeling sorry, Kara rubbed her daughter's back. Seeing Louis pouting, she also stroked him.

"Don't be sad, Little Angels. One day, Grandma will definitely realize. She just needs time to see the truth."

The twins looked down. They seemed to have difficulty dealing with disappointment. The others were thinking hard about finding a way out. However, just as silence fell, the sound of glass shattering caught their attention.

"Is that from Grandma's room?" Abigail sighed with wide eyes.

Without warning, everyone got up from their chairs and went to check.

As soon as Abigail pushed the door, they could see scattered pieces of plates and glasses. Sophia stood in the middle of it, completely

    In the dining room, everyone turned as Frank came back with the broom and dustpan. "Where should I throw this?" Abigail pointed her finger. "Just put it there. I’ll handle it later." Frank walked towards the corner. From his listless movements, everyone could guess what had happened. "What were you talking about earlier?" Philip asked, cautiously. Frank let out a faint sigh as he approached Kara. "Not much. Grandma wondered why I could hold a broom. She suspected me as always, and she didn't answer when I asked for her lenience for the children." Without waiting for orders, Kara put her arm around his waist. She didn't say a single word. However, Frank felt his burden suddenly lighten. Rubbing Kara's head, Frank turned to the twins. "Kids, have you finished breakfast?" The twins nodded. "Yes, Daddy." "Now it's Daddy's turn to have breakfast." Frank raised the corners of his lips. "Then how about you two play in the living room?" Louis' lips suddenly pursed. "Oh, I know. Dad

    With heavy steps, Sophia went to Abigail's chair. Her face was gloomy. However, seeing a piece of sandwich on Diana's plate, her eyes widened. "Grandma? Why do you eat so little? Here, have it more." Sophia confidently took a piece of sandwich, but unexpectedly, Diana straightened up her palms. "Can you just take care of yourself?" Sophia flinched. After blinking, she put the bread back onto the plate. "Sorry, Grandma. I was just worried—" "Where was our conversation earlier? Oh, I forgot because I was interrupted." Sophia gaped in astonishment. Diana had totally changed. "I've failed to seduce Frank. I can't lose Diana Johnson either. She still has to be my weapon in the forefront," she stated in her mind. After breakfast, Sophia approached Diana. With a bright smile she greeted, "Hi, Grandma. Would you like to go to the stable?" While putting on her jacket, Diana glanced. "Yes." "Then, come on, let me accompany you. There's something I want to show you. You will definitely

    "Why do you want to go, Grandma? Let’s stay here. The car is overload." Diana's breathing immediately rumbled. "What right do you have to stop me? If I say I want to go, I have to go." Sophia was lost for words. She didn't expect Diana to yell at her. While smiling crookedly at Sophia, Jeremy pointed to the front passenger seat. "Please come in, Grandma." Diana let out a faint breath. "Thank you." After closing the door, Jeremy stepped back. The twins waved from the rear side window. When Jeremy was about to waved back, Philips stepped on the gas. The car drove off, leaving Jeremy alone with Sophia. "Are you upset?" Jeremy turned his head with a mocking look. Sophia's lips trembled just like her clenched hands. "That is none of your business!" "Obviously that's my business. You've just been dumped by my grandmother. You must realize that your plan to ruin our family has failed." Jeremy put his hands in his pockets then turned to face Sophia. "Now what? You want to come up wit

    After a few moments, an irregular graph appeared on the screen. A small thumping sound accompanied it. Hearing that, Emily laughed silently. "It sounds so beautiful, Mommy," she whispered to Kara. "The baby's heart sounds healthy. Thank goodness he's okay," Louis continued with the same smile. Kara nodded but didn't answer. Her sobs could escape if her mouth opened."You see this throbbing part?" The doctor pointed at the screen again. "That's your little sibling's heart." The twins looked at it like the most precious jewel in the world. Their mouths opened, releasing gasps of astonishment and immeasurable joy. Meanwhile, someone behind the curtain shed tears hearing everything. Her feelings were chaotic, too many emotions mixed. The nurse noticed. "Madam, why don't you come in?" Diana shook her head slowly. "There are already a lot of people there." "The doctor doesn't mind." However, she still shook her head. "Here is fine too. I can hear their chatter." The nurse nodded.

    "Grandma," Philip rubbed Diana's shoulder, "Don't be sad. There will definitely be time for you to talk to Frank or Kara. We still have to go back to the inn anyway. We can't contact Jeremy from here, right? Frank might forget." Right after Diana nodded, the door opened again. In an instant, the voice of a toddler was in the air. "Come on, Mommy. Walk carefully." "Yes, don't let Little Baby shake in your stomach." A second later, Kara appeared with two toddlers holding her hands. "Barbara, meet my little bodyguard. Aren’t they great?" Barbara nodded. "Yeah, I heard they are the best in the world. Even Frank Harper's bodyguard can’t beat them." Louis' lips pursed. "Don't underestimate us, Auntie. For Little Baby, Emily and I are willing to do anything." Emily nodded cutely. "Yes, I will protect Little Baby from anything." Her tiny thumb poked her own chest. "Because of that," Louis turned his head and looked up at the other's face, "sorry, Grandma. We can’t attend the party. Mo

    The screen suddenly flashed. Comments from various social media were now rolling in. "I regret trusting them. I thought Frank Harper and his family really cared about Melanie. Turns out, it was all a hoax?" "I had my suspicions from the start. There's no way Frank Harper would send his mother to such a place. Someone must have instigated him. Kara Harper is the culprit." "I'm disappointed that Frank chose his wife over his mother. Where does he think he was born?" The next sentence was blurry. It didn't pass the censorship. Then another comment came."Kara doesn't deserve to be side by side with Frank Harper. Since she's been around, Frank and his company have been in trouble. We have to remove her from the position at Savior, and if necessary from her status as Frank's wife, especially if Melanie Harris is still languishing in such a place." Unable to watch the rest, Kara turned off the screen. "Why is the problem like this?" she muttered faintly. At that moment, Frank returned

    "Grandma, what's wrong?" Abigail bent down, checking. Diana just shook her head. "How about you come with us to the airport? You will have time to talk on the way," Philip suggested quietly. Diana waved her hand. "The timing isn't right, Philip. They're in a hurry. I don't want to get in the way." "But—" "No, Philip. I don't want to burden their minds. Besides, this is my fault. I'm the one who has to bear the consequences." While Abigail scratched her temple, Barbara took Diana's hand. "Grandma, don't worry. As soon as my mother's problem is resolved, we will definitely see you again. You can make everything straight." Diana nodded in resignation. "Yes, now go. Don't keep the others waiting." Philip and Barbara nodded. After hugging Diana and saying goodbye to Abigail, they ran after the others. Diana could only look at them with sad eyes. "Grandma, are you okay?" Abigail whispered after a while. Philip and Barbara were out of sight, but Diana was still looking in the same d

    The sheets on the twins' bed looked quite neat even though they were a little wrinkled in the middle. Diana suspected that the twins' tiny hands were trying to smooth it over. "Why do I only realize now that they are so cute? Why is it so late?" Diana stepped inside, hoping that her longing would fade. Unfortunately, the hole in her chest only got bigger. No matter how much air she sucked in, she couldn't get rid of the shortness of breath. "I should have visited here while they were still around." With teary eyes, Diana scanned the room. She could imagine how cheerful the twins were staying there. They might like dancing in front of the mirror or jumping up and down on the bed. As the corners of Diana's lips began to lift, her eyes fell on a piece of paper under the pillow. "What's that?" Diana lifted the pillow. A pen immediately rolled across the paper. The letters on it were rather large and slightly wavy. However, Diana could still read it. "Louis and Emily's holiday wish

    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.
