Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father by Pixie

Chapter 18



18. Full of Kara “The bartender was assigned to put drugs into two glasses of drink. One is a sleeping drug, while the other is a stimulant.” Frank’s heart suddenly raced. He remembered that the girl he had

slept with was lying in submission, just like someone who had been given sleeping pills, while he had turned into a vicious monster who had forgotten everything. He only cared about his libido which went crazy that night.

‘If the girl took sleeping pills, is she also a victim? That girl who, resembles Kara or maybe... Kara Martin herself?”

“Who paid him to frame me?” Frank asked with wide eyes. He subconsciously held his breath as he waited for an answer. “Your guess is wrong, Sir. Nobody meant to frame you. Both drugs. are intended for other people.”

Frank flinched. His mouth was wide open, but no sound came out. Confusion clogged his brain and throat.

“The sleeping drug was given to a girl, while the stimulant was for her co-worker. However, the plan did not go smoothly. Her co- worker didn’t even touch his drink.”

“| drank it?” Frank sighed in disbelief.

Jeremy swallowed hard. “That's right, Sir. When you come, you ask for instant serving. So, another bartender who just started to work. there carelessly gave you the drink.”

“He gave me another person’s drink?” Frank asked in a booming voice. Anger had boiled his blood. His hands were clenched tightly against the heat. “Where is that brat now? Teach him a lesson! He

ul

“Actually, the two bartenders wanted to tell you. But, because they heard that you intended to celebrate your anniversary with your fiancee, they canceled it. They apologize for the unexpected coincidence, Sir.”

“Nonsense! Even though I’m celebrating my anniversary with Isabela, | have no intention of sleeping with anyone! Give them a lesson!”

Jeremy sighed. He was very familiar with his master’s behavior when

he was angry.

“Okay, Sir. | will take care of them. Then, do you want to know the identity of the girl, Sir?” Frank’s rumbling breath suddenly hitched. Kara’s image again

hijacked his mind. Even though he wasn’t sure, he kept thinking the girl was Kara.

Now, because he had determined to forget Kara, he also had to erase the memories of the girl, including the citrus scent and the sighs that sometimes rang in his ears.

“No. From this moment on, don’t ever mention that girl again. I’ve left. her in the past. Now, just deal with that stupid bartender, then

consider this problem solved.” 1 “You sure, Sir?” Jeremy hung in silence for a moment.

“Four years ago, you also said so, Sir. That girl won’t dare appear again and we don’t need to waste time taking care of her. But apparently, you sent me to solve it now. You don’t even dare to hire a detective for fear of your secret being discovered.”

Frank snorted. “I opened this case because Ben came back. But now, isn’t it clear that he is innocent? There is nothing more to be afraid of.”

“Including that girl?”

Frank chuckled in annoyance. He needed to calm down, but Jeremy kept bothering him.

“| told you, don’t mention her again. Let’s just say she has

disappeared from the earth. After taking care of the two bartenders, take a few days off to visit your family.” “You send me away?”

“No. That’s my appreciation because you have successfully

completed the task and proven that you are my only capable employee.”

Jeremy could imagine how Frank scrunched up one side of his face when he said that lie. But still, he smiled wryly and nodded. “Okay. But, may I ask one thing, Sir?”

“What?”

“How is Kara Martin? | heard you were giving her a hard time.”

Frank’s eyes closed in resignation. His head was throbbing. Why did the world keep reminding him of Kara? “You're on an important mission, but you still have time to gossip? That’s enough! Another agenda awaits me.”

Before Jeremy could answer, Frank turned off the phone. He couldn't possibly admit to having fired Kara. His personal assistant would definitely interrogate and give him a long lecture. What he did to Kara could be revealed, including dragging her into the his room and pressing her on the bed.

Frank jerked his head up and blinked. Her face must not be painted in his mind. Her name can’t be said by the voice of his heart. And that citrus scent...novelbin

“Jeez, what do | have to do to get rid of it?”

While Frank was clutching his head that was full of Kara, the servant from earlier came back. This time, her steps were hasty. Her

eyebrows were arched high and her eyes were opened wider.

“Young Master, your grandfather has just arrived at his villa. He asks you to come there now.”

Asigh escaped Frank’s mouth. He was really tired. He hadn't finished calming his heart which was in turmoil due to Kara’s behavior. Now, a bigger problem came?

Without wasting any time, Frank went to see his grandfather. When he got there, there was no warm hug or friendly handshake. Not even exchanging smiles. They just looked at each other in doubt.

“| didn’t know Grandpa was planning to come home.”

“How is the company?”

The servants flinched at the straightforward question. However, Frank blinked casually. He was used to being serious whenever he faced Rowan Harper.

“The company’s assets grew 12% per quarter, and net income

continues to grow. Several projects show rapid development. | plan to invite investors to watch the final trial in the next few weeks.”

Rowan Harper nodded, but didn’t look quite satisfied.

“How is your relationship with Isabela? | hope you don’t postpone your wedding any longer. | can’t wait to see the union of the most respected families in this country.”

Frank raised the corners of his lips slightly. There was no answer other than that. His expression was flat, hiding anger and confusion. Why did Kara’s sad face flash through his mind again?

Kara looked down at the compress on her ankle. She looked focused with furrowed eyebrows. In fact, she was busy thinking about

tomorrow.

She had not been working at Savior Group for a week, but she had already been fired. She couldn’t possibly get a penny from that

company.

With the remaining amount in her account and the higher cost of living in L City, would they be able to survive until next month? The birthday party that the twins dreamt of was definitely in danger of being cancelled. What’s worse, her little angels were forced to be enrolled in a simple school.

“Aren't there any miracles for children as good as they are?” Kara sighed with teary eyes. She had forgotten to move the compress.

“Louis and Emily always encourage me. They never stop lighting up my world. Is this my reward for them as a mother?”

Kara closed her eyes and took a deep breath. A huge burden rested on her shoulders. If only her tears could turn into pearls, she certainly wouldn’t have to bother suppressing her sadness. She would let all her wounds be revealed, whether those caused by Frank Harper or the bitterness of reality.
