"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

    Emily spread her arms. Frank bent his knees and welcomed her into his arms. "See you tonight, Daddy. I hope your mission goes smoothly.""See you later, Princess. Take good care of Mommy while I’m away, hmm?" "Sure, Daddy." Emily kissed Frank's cheek then stepped back, giving Louis a chance to take her position. "See you later, Daddy. I hope you don't get any troubles." Louis patted Frank on the back. "If you succeed, I won't bother you and Mommy for one week." Frank chuckled at Louis' promise. "Thank you, Buddy. I will look forward to it. Take care of Mommy and your little siblings, hmm?""Okay, Daddy." Louis pressed four fingers to the tips of his eyebrow. After that, he took Kara's hand and started waving with Emily. Frank waved back. Even when Kara and the twins got into the limousine, his hands were still moving. "Frank, are you sure you want to use that way?" Jeremy asked. Frank turned in the direction the limousine had gone and waved higher. Only after it was no longer v

    "I'm sure, many of you are angry. Many of you don't accept it, and hope that Mrs. Melanie Harris will be rescued soon. I also can't bear to imagine how much sadness and suffering she endured while being locked up in an inappropriate place. Because of that ...." Sophia shifted, showing the view behind her back. There, Melanie was sitting with her back bent. Her head was slightly bowed and her gaze was blank. The shadows under her eyes and slightly agape mouth gave the impression that her senses had drifted away. "Is my mother's condition getting worse again?" Frank stopped the video and examined it more closely. Jeremy didn't dare answer. He kept holding the tablet, letting his little brother do whatever he wanted. "What a vicious woman." Frank grumbled then tapped the screen twice. The video played again. "For the sake of humanity, I try to help as much as possible. Coincidentally, I am a donor at the rehabilitation center where Mrs. Melanie Harris is being held. I am very angry

    "Why do you trust Jeremy so easily?" Sophia's voice suddenly rose. “He's in cahoots with Kara, Frank. Do you know that they're having a relationship behind your back? The child in Kara's womb might not be yours.” Jeremy was stunned at the nonsense, while Frank shook his head, realizing that Sophia was deliberately diverting the conversation. "Stop distorting the facts. Now give me my mother back." Sophia laughed softly. "I can't. I don't want to let your wife bully her anymore. I promised people to protect your mother. If you want to meet her, just come to my house. Meet your mother. Alone." "You want to trap me again?" "Again? I never did it, Frank. And right now, I'm just offering to help. Do you want to see your mother or not?" Sophia clearly felt the upper hand. Frank realized that. "Come on, Frank. Come to my house. Meet your mother. That way, the public's anger can subside a little. Some of them will believe that you are not a disobedient son. You actually care about your

    With a casual gesture, Frank motioned for the driver to get off. "Can you drive it, Sir? Trucks are different from regular cars." The old driver sounded worried. He didn't want the vehicle to support his family having problems. If the pay wasn't so big, he wouldn't have allowed someone else to drive. "Don't worry, Sir. I can even fly a plane." In a blink of an eye, Frank got behind the wheel. Then he easily brought the truck in. Sophia was waiting on the porch. "Welcome, Frank Harper. I am glad you come to visit my house." Sophia smiled sweetly. Frank snorted faintly. "I came to visit my mother," he emphasized, before slamming the truck door. "Isn't that the same thing?" Sophia raised an eyebrow then swung her palm backwards. "Please come in. I have prepared dinner to welcome you." "It seems you still don't understand. I came to visit my mother, not accompany you to dinner." The curve of Sophia's lips turned stiff. "Would it hurt if we had dinner first? Your mother just fell

    Frank snorted at that assumption. "You think you’re better than my wife?" "I am more worthy to be your wife, and yes. Of course I am much better than Kara. I am the daughter of the Moore family. Didn’t you see my achievements on every side of the living room?" Frank pursed his lips, holding back a laugh. "If you were better than Kara, you shouldn't have gone this far, Sophia. You shouldn’t use my mother to get close to me." "I'm not using your mother," Sophia shook her head firmly. "I helped her get better." Frank rubbed his chin and glanced away. "Aren't you tired of repeating that?" "I won't stop saying it until you believe it, until you realize it, until you accept me." Frank laughed wryly. His sitting position changed several times. He no longer felt comfortable facing Sophia. However, after checking the watch on his wrist, he straightened up again. "Okay, let's end this debate. You want to know one fact? If I didn't know Kara and met the old version of you, I still wouldn'

    "Actually, I have to stop following your orders because of my mother," Ava stated. Sophia was stunned. With wide eyes, she glanced at Frank. The man smiled faintly. "I have someone that can watch over Ava's mother. He's tough enough to defeat all the hospital security officers. You can't stop her life support machine, Sophia." "I'm not that cruel." Frank sneered. "But you intend to stop paying for her treatment. Isn't that the same as threatening Mrs. Connor's life?" Suddenly, a servant came over to Sophia. Her eyes were wide and her breathing was short. "Miss Hall!" After the servant whispered, Sophia immediately got up from the chair. Her eyes widened too. "What did you do to my people?" Sophia's tone finally rose. "Have you ever heard of eye for an eye?" Frank replied lightly. "You gave me stimulants even though in the end, Jeremy was the one who got it. What's wrong with me giving sedatives to your people?" Sophia grimaced. She couldn't imagine what chaos was happening a

    Finnic took a deep breath. His eye bags thickened. "I know I was wrong, but I really regret it. Can't you give me a second chance? We can build everything from scratch." "Building a safety net for your nearly destroyed company, you mean?" Sophia laughed lightly. Her head shook. "Sorry, Finnic. I don't like it when someone takes advantage of me. You intend to cancel our divorce for the sake of your company, right? You want to take advantage of my family's wealth and power?" Finnic was taken aback for a moment. "No, I just want to make amends. All this time, I didn't treat you properly." "If you really love me, then swallow that bitter pill. I no longer have feelings for you. Everything has turned into hatred. The hopes and future that I once wanted to live with you have also been destroyed. The rubble is shattered and nothing remains. There is nothing that can be saved." "You can, Sophia. As long as you are willing to lower your ego and open the door to forgiveness for me, we can s

    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
