Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father by Pixie

S31 62. It’s Not Too Late

“Sorry, I didn’t attend your wedding,” the old woman whispered,

making everyone emotional. “Sorry, made you go through everything alone.”

Biting her lip, Melanie closed her eyes. Those words felt healing in her heart. All wounds

seemed to have disappeared without a trace.

“Thank you,” she replied briefly. She didn’t want to ruin anything again with words she

might not have realized.

“Yes,” Diana rubbed her daughter-in-law’s back. “And no. I am the one who should be

thanking you. You have accompanied my son for the rest of his life. You have also given

me grandson, just like Vivian.”

With a gentle smile, Diana turned her head to the side. There, Vivian curled her lips

gracefully.

“You two… can you make peace for my sake? I’ve been gone for too long. I’ve never had

true family before.”

“I don’t mind.” Vivian shrugged. “I’m actually happy that we are friends.

While looking at Vivian, Melanie let out a faint sigh. Her eyes rolled lazily. Diana noticed

that.

“Do you still think that life is a competition?” Diana raised an eyebrow.

Melanie’s head straightened again. Her eyes widened.

“No, Dear,” Diana patted the back of Melanie’s hand. “Don’t end up like me. Don’t fall into

an abyss of endless regret.”

Still with knitted eyebrows, Melanie pursed her lips. Before she could protest, Diana

whispered, “Stop putting yourself in the shadows of the

past. Embrace your happiness.”

Diana stretched out her hand, gesturing for Vivian to come closer. When Vivian arrived at

her side, she grabbed her hand and forced

Melanie to shake hands.

“I know the relationship between you must be awkward. But, you can try to smooth it out.

Forget all the pain about Norman. I’m afraid he won’t be happy there if you two are still

arguing.”

Seeing Melanie’s reluctance, Vivian smiled wryly. She realized that the woman’s ego was

still high. “Forgive me.”

Melanie’s ears suddenly pricked up. A strange feeling crept into her chest.

“I’m sorry for thinking that my suffering was greater than anyone else’s. I didn’t know that

your life was actually more difficult than mine. Apart from the problem regarding Norman,

you still had to face. Rowan and the dilemma of taking care of your son. Not to mention

the enemies of the Harper family business. The decisions you took

were much heavier than mine.”

Melanie didn’t move. In the past, she thought it was Vivian’s apology that she was looking

for. However, after she heard it directly, why did

she feel bland?

“Okay,” she said flatly. Her expression was still fierce. “I forgive you.”

Vivian smiled slightly. “Thank you, Melanie.” Even though she was a little hesitant, she

finally hugged her

In that instant, Melanie froze. She could see the pride in everyone’s eyes. There was

emotion and relief in the breaths around her. If only she lowered her ego first, wouldn’t the

portion of attention she got be much bigger?

However, before her jealousy could develop, Diana hugged them both.

“Oh, this is so beautiful. Thank you for making my heart feels light, Melanie, Vivian. If it’s

like this, Norman will definitely rest in peace.”

Melanie was happy to have her name called first. Smiling faintly, she put her arms around

Diana and Vivian.

“You see? Everything is fine. The party tonight will go smoothly,” Kara whispered, leaning

against her husband.

Frank put his arm around Kara’s waist. “Yes, your guess is right again. Now, shall we go to

the gazebo? The kids definitely need help.”

Kara nodded then closed her eyes, letting Frank kiss her temple. Without them realizing, a

drone had just moved away from the window. What’s worse, it also missed the

surveillance cameras and

security team.

When the night came, Emily’s laughter was so light, just like her footsteps around the

gazebo. The sparklers in both her hands kept splashing the sparks. The bigger the flame

appeared, the redder her cheeks became.

“Mommy, look! I’m like a fairy flying away with magic powder!”

Kara smiled seeing her cheerfulness. “Yes, Little Bee. You’re like

Tinkerbell.”

Emily’s laughter became shrill again. While speeding up, she raise

and lowered her hands.

Meanwhile, Louis was busy drawing picture in the air with his

sparkler. After making the pattern, he ran over to Barbara, checking

the results.

“How was it, Auntie? Did it work?”

With a bright smile, Barbara showed her camera screen. “Succeed!”

A star was depicted perfectly. Seeing that, Louis nodded in satisfaction. The small curve of

his lips makes his cheeks look chubbier. “Good job, Auntie.”

A second later, he waved at his sister. “Emily, Auntie has succeeded. Let’s begin!”

Emily changed her track towards Louis. After throwing the firework stems into the trash,

she took a new one.

“Have you decided what you want to draw?” Louis asked as they

placed the tip of the sparkler onto the candle flame.

Emily nodded firmly. “I want to make a beautiful dress. You?”

“I want to make a crown on my head.”

Emily covered her laughter with one hand. “Then we’ll look like prince and princess.”

“The results will be hilarious,” Barbara commented as she got into position. “But

remember, do it in three seconds. Don’t get interrupted.

OK?”

At that moment, Louis and Emily’s sparklers lit up. Guided by Bart they did the mission.

After seeing the results, they jumped up and down excitedly.

“Woohoo! We did it, Emily. Auntie, we did it!”

“Auntie, let’s show the results to the others. Everyone will be amaze by this work of art.”

Barbara nodded in agreement. “Good idea. Let’s go to the gazebo.

“But I want to finish my sparkler first.” Emily stretched out her arm again and turned

around.

Louis took a safe distance and then turned around too. “Woohoo!

Tonight is so fun.

“I think their voices will be hoarse tomorrow morning,” Frank said as he stroked the arm of

the woman next to him.

Kara smiled sweetly. “And I think they’ll be delirious tonight. They laugh too much.”

Tempted to see Kara’s lips, Frank kissed her. He didn’t realize that Diana had been

watching them with teary eyes.

“Tonight seems to be the most beautiful night of my life,” the old

woman sighed, drawing the other’s attention.

“Because you are here with us?” Vivian raised an eyebrow.

Diana nodded. “Yeah, my nights have never been so busy.”

“Don’t you often have evening events with the orphanage children, Grandma? It’s also

busy.” Abigail shrugged her shoulders.

Diana laughed faintly. “Someday, you’ll understand, Abi. Spending time with family has its

own impression. Even though the number of people is smaller, it feels warmer. It doesn’t

mean I don’t love children in the orphanage, but-”

“I understand,” Abigail nodded fast. “That’s why I used to hope that someone would come

to adopt me, because family really means a lot. I want to be part of that.”

Abigail’s shoulder moved up, just like the corner of her lips. However, the impression of

her smile was so sad. Vivian moved to reach for

her hand.

“Abi, if you want to be Jeremy’s little sister, I will welcome you with open arms.” Vivian

nodded her head

Seeing that sincerity, Abigail laughed softly. “I really appreciate your kindness, Mrs. Bell,

and I would also be very happy if I had a mother

like you. But, I’m too old to be adopted. It’s time for me to start a family of my own.”

Abigail smiled then glanced at Philip. The man was busy recording Barbara and the twins’

moments. She realized that she had to look for another candidate to accompany her to

make her dream come true.
