Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father novel Chapter 228

S21 58. Don’t Kill Philip 

Once again, Melanie launched an attack. Her move was faster. However, Philip still managed to catch her wrist. 

“Come to your senses, Madam. What you are doing is a crime. You could really go to jail.” 

Hearing the word she hated the most, Melanie’s breath became louder. Her lips twitched, her eyes dimmed. 

“If I have to end up in prison, you have to end up in hell. Therefore, give up!” 

Melanie mustered all her strength. She pushed the knife with both 

hands. 

Philip had no other choice but to defend. He couldn’t possibly fight back. After all, Melanie was his boss’s family, the mother of the woman he liked. 

“Stop it, Madam. You’ll only hurt yourself,” Philip whispered, thinly. 

“No way!” 

Melanie kept pushing. However, the knife did not move forward in the slightest. Annoyed, she tried to step back, but Philip had already locked her wrists. 

“Let go!” She started to struggle. 

Philip shook his head. “No. As long as the knife is still in your hand, I won’t let go.” 

Melanie’s shoulders shook violently Groaning, she tried to fight back. 

At that moment, Barbara’s voice was heard. “Oh my God! Mom…!”

The girl approached with hasty steps. Her eyes were wide and her mouth was agape. 

“Mom, what are you doing? You want to kill Philip? Let go of that knife! 

Receiving such an order, Melanie snorted. The anger in her chest exploded even more. 

“No!” Frowning, she drew the knife again. Barbara could no longer remain still.. 

“Mom, stop! This is too much!” Barbara tugged at her mother’s arm. Her tears started to thicken. 

“Don’t interfere, Barbara. You’ll only make things worse!” 

“So all of that is true? You’re really a criminal? You dare to kill people?” 

Barbara’s voice sounded shaky. Her face was sad. Seeing that, Melanie softened. Her attacks weakened. 

“I’m not a bad person, Barbara. It was the circumstances that forced me to act recklessly. If you hadn’t insisted me earlier, I wouldn’t have. gone this far.” 

“Then stop. It’s not too late for you to change. Let go of the knife, hmm?” 

Melanie fell silent. Her hand was no longer pushing, just tremblingly gripping the knife. 

“Come on, Mom. Don’t kill Philip. That way, there won’t be any 

evidence. We can live together again, as usual.” Barbara nodded reassuringly. 

Melanie’s chin twitched too. Her eyes turned glazed. “You won’t leave me again?”

Barbara quickened her nod. “Yes, I won’t leave you again. Now, let go of this knife, hmm?” 

Seeing Melanie’s change, Philip loosened his grip. However, his eyes remained alert. His hands were clenched tightly, ready in case the lady went crazy again. 

Meanwhile, Melanie had turned to face Barbara. “You won’t go with your father? You promise to stay with me?” 

Barbara forced a smile. “Yes. We can live in your new apartment. We can also manage it together. Doesn’t it sound wonderful?” 

Melanie blinked sadly. “Yes, it’s beautiful.” 

Barbara breathed a sigh of relief. Her worries faded. However, after one blink, she caught a flash of resentment in her mother’s eyes. 

“But it would be even more beautiful if this man died!” 

Melanie swung the knife. Philip prepared to catch her hand again. But apparently, he only grasped the wind. Melanie’s hand jerked back as Barbara pulled her away. 

“Barbara, what are you doing? Let go! Don’t ruin my plan again!” 

“No, Mom!” With all her might, she dragged Melanie away from Philip. 

“Barbara!” 

Melanie was furious. She pushed her daughter with her elbow then escaped quickly. However, when she was about to stab Philip, blood dripped from the tip of the knife. In an instant, her body froze and her eyes trembled violently. 

“Mom?” Barbara called softly. 

Melanie let out a quick sigh. When she turned around, her daughter’s face had turned pale and her breathing had shortened. Tears were

hanging on her eyes. 

“This is blood? I’m bleeding?” 

Barbara’s hands were raised in the air, not knowing what to do with the wound on her right chest. A second later, her body started shaking. Her legs were unsteady and soon, she lost her balance. 

Philip swiftly caught Barbara. His heart ached, his chest tight.. However, he tried to hide his pain behind the tense expression. 

“Hey, don’t be afraid, okay? You’re going to be okay.” 

While applying pressure to the wound, Philip lowered Barbara carefully. 

“I’m bleeding, Philip. I’m bleeding,” Barbara whispered with tears in her

eyes. 

“Yeah, but this isn’t a problem. You’re a strong girl.” 

“Am I going to die?” 

Philip shook his head with deep furrowed brows. “No. This is a small wound. I’ve had worse than this, and I survived. Surely you can do it too, hmm?” 

At that time, people arrived. Seeing Barbara slumped weakly and with fresh blood on her clothes, everyone gasped. Only Frank and Kara rushed over. 

“Prepare my hypercar!” Frank’s voice boomed. 

A driver gasped. With a tense face, he ran to carry out orders. 

“Jeez, what happened?” Kara knelt in front of Philip, next to Barbara. 

“We have to take her to the hospital,” Philip said. “Can you help me press here?” 

“Yeah, yeah.”

While Kara and Philip took care of Barbara, Frank gave the guards a code. They rushed to secure the knife from Melanie’s hands. 

“Didn’t I tell you to control your emotions? Look at the consequences!” 

Melanie sighed faintly. Her mouth remained agape. Her eyes flickered, glancing at Frank and her red-stained hand alternately. 

Without waiting for a response, Frank gave the next order. “Take my mother to her room!” Then, while walking after Philip, he took out his phone:
