Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father by Pixie

59. The Darkest Day of My Life

“You have to remember, Little Angels,” Kara stroked the twins’ cheeks, “Great Grandpa

has changed. He’s proud to see you working at

Savior. He also intended to make peace with us.

“But Great Grandpa didn’t have time to apologize.” Emily shook her head slowly.

Kara’s breath secretly hitched. After a few blinks, she curled up her lips again. “Yes, he

didn’t have time to apologize. But, if you are willing to forgive him, he can still go to

heaven.”

“I want to forgive Great Grandpa.”

“Yeah, I want too.”

Kara lifted the corners of her lips a little higher. “Great Grandpa must be very happy to

have such kind-hearted great-grandchildren like you.”

“Great Grandpa knows that we love him with all our hearts?” Emily blinked expectantly.

“Yes.” Kara stroked her daughter’s cheek. “Great Grandpa can alw see you from above.

Therefore, keep being good children. Make proud.”

“Okay, Mommy,” Louis answered quickly.

Kara’s hand moved to rub her son’s head. “Good. Now, don’t think about anything else.

Sleep. You have to take care of your health you can continue working tomorrow. You want

to make Great Grandpa proud, right?”

Louis and Emily nodded in unison. After fixing their position on the bed, they closed their

eyes. Kara pulled their blankets up and gave them good night kisses.

“Sweet dreams, Little Angels.”

Since their eyes were already heavy, the twins instantly fell asleep. Silently, Kara turned

around. Only then did she realize that Frank was peeking at the door.

“Hey

…..” Kara closed the door behind her back and rubbed Frank’s

arm. “How are you? Any better?”

“They’re asleep?” Frank whispered softly. Kara had never seen his

face that tired.

“Yes.” Kara managed a smile.

Suddenly, Frank hugged her. With his eyes closed, he took a deep breath. Only Kara’s

scent could calm him now.

“This is one of the darkest days of my life. Just like the day my father

died.”

Kara rubbed his back. “It’s been a hard day. You must be very tired. Why don’t you sleep

too?”

Frank looked at Kara with sad eyes. “Do you want to accompany me to sleep?”

The corners of Kara’s lips lifted slightly. “I never thought that Frank Harper would be this

spoiled.”

Frank forced a smile, but failed. “Grandpa was like a parent to me. Now that he’s gone, I

only have you. I hope you don’t mind if I lean on your shoulder.”

“I don’t mind. But you have to remember. You also have Jeremy and

the twins.”

Two small wrinkles appeared on the bridge of Frank’s nose. “It’s

strange if I lean on Jeremy, while the kids… they’re still too small. We can’t let them

support my big head. So, leaning on you is the only

Kara smiled slightly. After grabbing Frank’s finger, she took a step forward. “Let’s go to

your room.”

Unexpectedly, Frank refused to move. Kara looked at him in

confusion. “What is it?”

Frank’s breathing became heavy again. “I tried to sleep earlier, but I couldn’t.”

Kara’s brows furrowed deeper. Didn’t Frank just agree to sleep with her? “I will accompany

you. Don’t be afraid.”

However, Frank still shook his head. “My room

there are too many

traces of Grandpa in there. Even though I close my eyes, the scent of my room reminds

me of him.”

As he smiled bitterly, his gaze turned dreamy. “When I was a teen, he often rummaged my

room. After I grew up, he often barged into it to give me long lectures. I often secretly

cursed at his behavior, hoping he would quickly get out of the room. Who would have

thought, now I hope he comes instead.”

Frank’s tears welled up again. Before his sadness spilled over, Kara quickly led him. “Then

sleep in my room.”

Frank didn’t answer. He just walked along and caught his breath. When he arrived at the

bed, he lay down like a child resting his head. on his mother’s shoulder. Even though he

closed his eyes, he could

still see Rowan.

Meanwhile, Jeremy was sitting on the back porch. From the chair beside, Vivian stared at

him unblinkingly.

“What do you want to talk about, Ma’am? It’s getting late. The gates must be locked and

you must go home soon.” Jeremy kept staring at the garden. He didn’t seem interested in

his mother.

“First

Vivian reached out a hesitant hand to Jeremy’s shoulder, “I wanted to express my

condolences for your grandfather’s death.”

Jeremy glanced at her fingers. His hands which were resting on his lap suddenly clenched

into fists. Something was stirring in his heart, something he didn’t understand.

“Sorry, Ma’am.” He turned back to face the garden. “My relationship with Rowan Harper is

only about work. I respect him because he is my brother’s grandfather. Not my

grandfather.”

Vivian swallowed hard. She actually wanted to confirm that Rowan was Jeremy’s

grandfather too. However, common sense restrained

her.

“You know what?” Vivian lowered her hands and looked at the garden lights. Her breath

was faint. “Seeing Rowan’s terrible death, I was scared.”

Not hearing a continuation, Jeremy glanced over. Vivian’s shoulders looked heavy. Her face

was not as bright as usual. “Scared of what?”

“I’m scared that it turns out … my revenge would be in vain. I’ve sacrificed too many

things. My dreams, my freedom, my happiness.” Vivian turned her head with sorrowful

eyes. “My son.”

The middle-aged woman took a deep breath. “I’m afraid that Harper didn’t admit his

mistake at the end of his life. That n dost my son just for the sake of silliness. My whole

life is a stup joke too sad to laugh at.”

Jeremy quickly looked away. He did not want to weaken becaus ppity. “I don’t want to

relieve your feelings. But the truth, Rowan Harp

has regretted his actions. Frank accidentally saw him watching th twins from afar. Frank

also heard his murmurs about wanting peace and his pride in the twins.”

“Is that so?” Vivian’s eyebrows rose to their maximum. After a few blinks, she took a deep

breath. “Thank goodness.”

“You relieve now?” Jeremy tried to keep his tone even. However, his annoyance was too

thick.

“If you still don’t forgive me till the end, at least I have one good thing that I can rely on in

life. I’ve managed to get an old man as tough as Rowan Harper to soften up. I succeeded

in changing his views. With that, I think I can survive.”

While Vivian was nodding, Jeremy glanced again. There was a small change in her eyes.

“You expect forgiveness from me?”

Vivian’s breath was caught in her throat. She did no movement other than blinking. “Yes, I

intend to apologize tonight. Do you mind?”

Jeremy snorted slightly. “Apologizing is your right, but forgiving is my right.”

Vivian’s shoulders became heavy again. Her fingers squeezed

together on her lap. “Actually, there was something else that scared me about attending

Rowan Harper’s funeral.”

When Jeremy looked back at her, she whispered, “I’m afraid of experiencing similar thing.

The child I dumped is reluctant to forg me. I face death alone, without him beside me. I’m

really scared imagine it.”

Suddenly, Vivian looked down. Her breathing shortened and her shoulders trembled. When

her face lifted again, a teardrop rolled down her cheek.
