Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father

56. Shrimp for the Twins

When Kara was about to change the topic, Rowan had already

accepted the offer. She had no other way but to keep the twins close to her. Luckily, the situation in the canteen was quite busy. There was little chance of her children being attacked there.

“Sir, why are we sitting at this table? Shouldn’t we choose the menu there?” Louis pointed his finger at a long table near the glass partition in the service area.

“That’s because you are special guests. You don’t need to order again. “This canteen will soon serve the best menu for us,” Rowan glanced at Kara with a faint smile.

“Is it true?” Louis’ eyes lit up. He glanced at Emily and wiggled his eyebrows. “We might get that expensive ice cream, Emily.”

Emily nodded with a sweet smile. “I hope so.”

Hearing the whispers of the twins, Rowan secretly mocked. ‘Is their

life that difficult that they can’t afford the ice cream they want?’

“You guys want that ice cream? Why don’t you just tell Mommy?” Kara asked with furrowed eyebrows.

Louis and Emily shook their heads in unison.

“We have to save money, Mommy. Because of that, Emily and I collected the visiting coupons.”

“We can exchange 30 coupons for one small cup. Louis and I have collected 12.”

Smiling bitterly, Kara stroked their shoulder. “You really are good kids, Little Angels. As a reward, you can order that ice cream after lunch.”

“Is it okay? Mommy needs a lot of money to buy our school uniforms. later,” Louis said in a worried tone.

“It’s okay for us to wait until our coupons are collected,” Emily continued, nodding like a pretty doll.

Watching the short drama, Rowan let out a faint sigh. His brows.

furrowed uncomfortably. He thought Kara was deliberately making him feel sorry.

A moment later, a servant came with a trolley. Louis and Emily didn’t blink as the uniformed girl placed the dishes one by one. Occasionally, they glanced at each other and giggled.

However, when a plate of shrimp appeared, Emily’s cheerfulness faded. She immediately pouted and hugged Kara tightly.

Witnessing Emily’s fear, Kara stole a glance at Rowan. She already suspected that the old man had bad intentions towards her children.

Meanwhile, Louis patted his sister’s hand and comforted her. “You don’t need to be afraid, Emily. We’re fine as long as we don’t eat it. Look at this! I touch it but my finger is fine.” Louis put his words in

practice.

“You guys can’t eat shrimp?” Rowan pretended to be surprised. In fact, he already held all the information related to the twins.

“Yes, we are allergic to shrimp,” Louis said lightly.

“Then should we remove it from the table?”

Louis shook his head. “No need, Sir. Mommy likes shrimp. But since

we found out we were allergic, Mama never ate it again.”

“Oh…. So, your allergies were inherited from your father?”

Kara sucked in a heavy breath. She could no longer remain silent.

“Sorry, Mister Harper. If you don’t mind, please put the plate away. Emily couldn’t have lunch comfortably if she saw it.”

Rowan sneered and nodded. Just through hand movements, the servant already understood the order.

After ensuring that the cafeteria was still quite busy, Kara whispered to her son, “Louis, why don’t you take Emily to order the ice cream you. both like? Your sister needs something to calm her fears.”

“Can we have ice cream before lunch?” Louis widened his eyes in

surprise.

“Yes, you can taste it a little, and then eat it after the main course.”

“Okay.”

Excitedly, Louis jumped down from the chair. Taking Emily’s hand, he walked towards the ordering counter. Kara was sure that the two toddlers would need quite a long time to make a choice.

“You must already know about the allergies the twins have, but why, did you serve shrimp?” Kara asked in a low but firm voice.

Rowan smiled crookedly. “I just want to make sure. The hospit could have been manipulated. Turns out, that’s true?”

“Frank already has agreed to marry Isabela. That means I’ve ke word and you shouldn’t harm the twins. Why are you acting out the agreement?”

“Did you see your children eating it? No, right? They are still health and even look happy.”

The old man turned to Louis and Emily who were busy arguing in front

of the ice cream banner.

“What do you really want to say?” Kara asked boldly.

Rowan pursed his lips and leaned back in his chair. His gaze remained fixed on the twins. “You said you would disappear soon, but why are you still listed as a Savior employee?”

“Because those are the terms I agreed to with your grandson. He will continue his arranged marriage with Isabela as long as I still work as his secretary. So, when will I go? It depends on Isabela’s ability to grab his attention. The sooner she wins your grandson’s heart, the sooner I can be out of his life.”

“You don’t intend to unite your children with their father, do you?”

Kara stupefied. Her chest suddenly became tight. Her gaze wandered for a moment. Her response made Rowan snort triumphantly. The old man felt he had struck the right spot.

When she was tired from work or watching her children play alone, Kara sometimes hoped to find a kind-hearted man who was willing to be their father. Together, they could be a complete, happy family.

However, that man was clearly not the boss. Even if Frank Harper was the twins’ father, it would be impossible for them to be together. The barrier between them was too great.

“What for?” Kara lifted her chin and smiled bitterly. “He abandon his children since the beginning, even before they were born. My children do not deserve to be treated like worthless objects. They deserve to be happy.”

Seeing Kara’s eyes fill with tears, Rowan felt victorious. “Is that so? You think your children are happy now?” His tone was full of disdain. While sneering, he turned his attention back to Louis and Emily.

“Look at those clothes…. I think the school uniform will be the best clothes they have if you can afford it.”

“Look at their thin bodies…. I hope this dish isn’t the best they’ve ever Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“Oh, I also remember how enthusiastic they were at studying earlier. They must be very grateful to be able to get a scholarship because without it…, their poor mother would not be able to afford them to study at Savior.”

Kara’s breath started to rumble. However, she couldn’t deny it. That’s the reality. She was unable to give the best to Louis and Emily

because of economic conditions.

“So, is your grandson happy? He could buy whatever he wanted, always ate sumptuous dishes, and received the best education. He even has a high position in the company and many achievements. Yet, is he happy?”

Raising the corners of her lips, Kara continued, “If he is happy with his wealthy life, he wouldn’t go against your wishes, Sir. He would be happy to accept the daughter of a famous conglomerate as his wife, instead of asking for help from a woman from a lower class to thwart the arranged marriage.”

Rowan’s cheeks twitched at the reply. He could feel the strong sarcasm between the secretary’s words.
