Hiding The Twins From Their Billionaire Father
Chapter 159 The Darkest Day Of My Life
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 always see you from above. Therefore, keep being good children. Make him 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 so 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 option I have."
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."
