Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father by Pixie

S3 161. How Was Last Night?

“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 | ended up sleeping, after | 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.”

Sof the adults looked down and laughed. Swere stunned.

“How did you know Barbara was panting, Louis?” Susan inquired.

“Louis hijacked Mommy's phone, Grandma. Then we called Auntie. We wanted to ask about her condition. We

were worried because previously, Auntie called Mommy and sounded scared,” Emily reported with a serious

expression.

“But apparently, Auntie was fine. She could still answer our calls. She said it was just a little painful.” Louis

pinched the air with his thumb and forefinger.

Susan looked straight at Kara. Blinking stiffly, Kara shrugged.

“I don’t know when Louis took my phone.”

“We're sorry, Mom. Next time, we won't be negligent again.” Frank nodded while grimacing meaningfully.

“I really don’t understand. Why can’t small kids know about that? And what's wrong with us calling Auntie last

night?” Louis grumbled while scratching his temple.

“Because it's an invasion of privacy, Louis, and you're not qualified.”

Everyone turned to the voice. Barbara entered, side by side with Philip.

“Auntie!” Emily's eyes lit up.

“Good morning, Everyone,” Philip said as he pulled out a chair for Barbara. “Are we late?”

“In fact, you're too early. Newlyweds shouldn't rush,” Melanie said, winking at her daughter. Barbara chuckled.

“How was last night? Was it smooth?”

Kara quickly elbowed Frank, warning that the twins were listening.

“Yeah, we did well.” Philip smiled as he sat next to his wife.

“So, what qualifications did Auntie mean?” Louis had difficulty pronouncing the word that sounded strange to

him.

“Qualifications are requirements, Louis. Just like how you were able

to receive a scholarship before, there are conditions that must be met. Do you remember?”

Emily nodded quickly. “Yes, there's a lot of documents to prepare. Then, Grandpa Rowan tested us with a few

questions.”

“Do we need a requirement to know how someone gets pregnant?” Louis’ eyes narrowed.

“Of course. First, you have to be at least 17 years old.”

“Not 17, but 21 years old,” Kara interrupted quickly.

Barbara raised an eyebrow at the code. “Yes, 21 years old.”

Louis” mouth rounded. “That's still a long time!”

“You shouldn't complain, Louis. Do you want to get old quickly? I don’t. | want to enjoy my childhood as best as

possible.”

Louis’ cheeks puffed up. “Okay. Then, what are the next conditions?”

“Second, you must have a great sense of responsibility and be ready to build a family.”

“And third?”

“You have to find the right partner,” Frank interjected, “like Daddy and Mommy.”

“Likeand Philip too,” Barbara continued, coquettishly.

While Philip laughed faintly, Emily rounded her mouth. “Oh, |

understand now.”

Everyone focused on her. “Understand what, Princess?”

“How can people get pregnant even though they're not married. Like Mommy and Ava!”

“Because they are 21 years old, have a sense of responsibility, and already have the right partner?” Louis

continued with sparkling eyes. It was like he had found a treasure he had been looking for.

“Yes!” Emily nodded confidently. She didn’t realize that adults were intrigued by her idea.

Suddenly, Louis glanced at Abigail. “That means Abi doesn’t know how to get pregnant? She's only 19 years

old.”

The water that Abigail had just sipped almost spilled out. While wiping her mouth, she nodded. “Yeah, | don’t

know either.”

“Abigail is only 19 years old?” Melanie's eyes widened. “I think she’s already in twenties.”

Chuckling dryly, Abigail scratched her neck. “I've heard that often. Maybe because | work too much, my face

looks old.”

“Don’t be fooled, Grandma! Abigail is still young too! Don’t tell her about how someone can get pregnant. She

doesn’t meet the

qualications yet.” Louis straightened one hand. His eyebrows arched.

in seriousness.

“Qualifications, Louis,” Emily corrected.

“Yes, that's what | mean.”

While the twins continued to chatter, Barbara glanced at the empty chairs. “So, where are Ava and Jeremy? They

didn’t forget that we had breakfast together, right?”

“Maybe they're busy doing the test.” Frank shrugged.

“Does it take long?”

Louis’ eyes narrowed at Barbara's question. “How old are you actually, Auntie? Aren't you already past 21? Why

don’t you know about that?”

While the people at the dining table turned amused again, in another room, Jeremy sat in silence. His head

bowed, his hands put together between his knees. As soon as Ava cout of the bathroom, he got up quickly.

“How is it? Have you gotten the result?”

Ava smiled dryly. It’s hard to guess what's in her mind. “Yes.”

Jeremy's eyes widened. His heart beat more violently. “So?”

Taking a deep breath, Ava took out what she had hidden behind her waist. Seeing the two lines on the device,

Jeremy’s eyebrows rose.

“What does it mean? You're pregnant? You're really pregnant?”

The curve of Ava’s lips turned into a faint laugh. Her head nodded as her eyes filled with tears.

“You're going to be a father.”

Jeremy's laughter spread into the air. “We will be parents soon?”

Ava nodded. “Yes. Congratulations, Jeremy.”

While laughing louder, Jeremy pulled Ava into a hug. One of his hand rubbed her head, the other rubbed her

back.

“Thank you very much, My Lady. You gavethe most beautiful gift in the world. We will soon be a mother and

father.” Jeremy kissed her repeatedly.

“We'll be good parents, right?” Ava whispered before meeting his gaze.

“Yeah,” Jeremy raised and lowered his chin. “I will help you take care of our baby. Every morning, we can bathe

him together, give him breakfast, and play with him before going to work. Then in the evening, we can play

longer, teach him many things, listen to his chatter. Our life will be full of laughter.”

“And the whining. It's impossible for a baby not to cry, Jer. And also clean the poop. And prepare your stamina

because we will be sleep deprived for several weeks. But, before all that happens, | still have to be pregnant for

nine months and give birth.”

Jeremy hurriedly cupped Ava’s cheek and shook his head faintly. “You don’t need to worry. During those times, |

will always accompany you. | will not let you go through those nine months alone, and forever. |

will be by your side. Together, we will take care of our baby.”

Ava was lost in Jeremy's warm gaze. Without realizing it, tears fell from her eyes. “That's so beautiful, Jer.”

“Yes, it must be very beautiful.”

Once again, Jeremy closed the distance between them. As his warmth surrounded Ava, her eyes closed, soaking

in happiness.

“Now, how about we share this good news with the others? They must be waiting for us.”

Ava nodded slightly. “Yeah, let's meet the others.”
