Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father novel Chapter 246

S21 76. Big Trouble 

“Barbara!” 

Barbara took a glance. Seeing Philip a small hiss escaped her mouth. “You got the news too?” 

Philip let out a faint sigh. His head shook. His hand rose towards her arm. “Whatever people say out there… you don’t need to listen to it.” 

Unfortunately, Barbara’s tears had fallen. She dodged Philip’s touch then ran towards the door. 

“Barbara!” 

His call was like the wind. The girl kept running inside. She even ignored everyone near the door. 

“Barbara,” Frank called when he managed to hold her arm. 

However, Barbara fought back. Afraid that the girl would be in pain, Frank let her go. The others could only stare pensively at Barbara’s 

back. 

“What should we do, Frank?” Kara furrowed her eyebrows. 

While Frank shook his head faintly, Louis’ voice was heard. “Daddy!” 

The toddler panting approached. “What happened? Why is Auntie crying?” 

Behind him, Emily walked quickly, dragging Philip’s hand. “Auntie is also angry,” she added. 

“The news about Grandma Melanie is spreading, Little Bee. People think that Daddy deliberately abandoned her in the rehabilitation. center. They think that Daddy is disobedient and they question why Auntie is siding with Daddy. They call Auntie selfish and greedy 

because she chose to live with us,” Kara explained, helping Frank. 

Louis gaped. His round eyes flickered with confusion. “Then what about Philip’s proposal?” 

Philip’s gaze fell. His breathing was getting heavier. “We have to postpone it. Saving the company and comforting Barbara is more important.”

Emily’s shoulders dropped as well. Her hands clasped together in front of her stomach. “Is this a big problem? Should we split teams to 

solve it?” 

Frank nodded. “Let Daddy and Mommy handle company matters. You guys just focus on Barbara.” 

-A second later, he turned to face Kara. “We have to make a press 

release now.” 

“You want to explain everything?” 

Frank clenched his fists. He had no other choice but to sacrifice 

Melanie’s good name and admit his negligence in caring for his 

mother. 

“Yes,” Frank glanced at Philip and the twins, “but that means you need to make extra effort. The reality that Barbara has to face will be even harder if everything is revealed.” 

“Should we make a confirmation video too? Emily and I can explain that their assumptions about Auntie are wrong.” 

“As proof, we need Mr. Morris’s help to explain the contents of the will and confirm that Auntie rejects her inheritance,” Emily’s eyes widened. 

Kara sighed faintly. “I think Emily is right. We need to reveal the contents of the will in detail. Only then can people trust and 

understand our decisions. But….” Kara glanced at Frank. “That could also backfire.” 

+25 BONUS 

“People could think of me as incompetent as a son?” Frank raised an eyebrow. 

Kara nodded. “I’m afraid they will choose the wrong path of thinking. OK if they understand your mother’s illness and believe that a rehabilitation center is the last choice. But if not?” 

Kara shook her head slowly. “They could accuse you of taking shortcuts because you didn’t want to bother. Or even, they are increasingly convinced that you didn’t treat your mother well, thinking that her illness could have been avoided.” 

“You’re right,” Frank nodded slightly. “It could be that they believe that love wealth more than my own mother. But I’m sure some of them are broad-minded. Clients and investors are most likely in this group, 

The twins’ cheeks puffed up. Their brows were creased. 

“This 

his is really unfair. Daddy and Barbara are not disobedient children. Why do people think that?” Emily’s eyes started to water. 

Louis patted her shoulder. “Don’t be sad, Emily. Truth always 

revealed. Even though I’m upset too 

“Then shall we move now? I can contact Mr. Morris,” Kara nodded, 

reassuringly. 

“Yes, let’s carry out our duties.” 

However, before they could take a step, Frank’s phone rang again. Frank immediately picked up. 

“What’s wrong, Jer?” 

“Check social media. Barbara is broadcasting.” 

Louis flinched. His finger moved swiftly to on the tablet screen, 

checking Barbara’s account. The others came closer. 

+25 BONUS 

Apparently, Barbara was providing clarification. Her nose was red and her eyes were puffy. 

“I’m very sorry. Since a long time ago, I should have paid more 

attention to my mother. I should have been more assertive and not be affected by circumstances. That way, my mother would not have gone too far. She would not have threatened others with a knife and my brother would not have had to put her at the rehabilitation center.” 

Everyone was stunned. No one expected that Barbara would dare to announce the truth with her own mouth. 

“What has she said, Jeremy?” Frank asked, quietly. 

“Everything. About the original purpose of their arrival at your house, -the inheritance, the knife incident. Short, concise, clear.” 

Frank sighed in disbelief. Gritting his teeth, he paid more attention to Barbara. 

“Therefore, I beg you. Please, do not corner Frank Harper and his family. They have done nothing wrong. In fact, they have been very patient with our greed.” 

Barbara wiped her tears and tried to smile. Her sadness made the 

twins sniffed too. 

“No matter how troublesome we were, they still treated us warmly. They were willing to let us live in their house. They gave me a job, and even saved my father’s company with an injection of half a billion.” 

Suddenly, Barbara straightened up. Her expression suddenly turned 

stern. 

“My brother is not a stingy person. He loves his family much more than wealth. It was my mother and who were too greedy. For that, I on behalf of my mother apologize profusely. We should not have taken the benefits from the kindness of the Harper family.” 

+25 BONUS 

Barbara looked down. His shoulders shook violently. “I’m sorry. Really, I’m sorry.” 

Frank snorted in annoyance. He could no longer remain silent. After hanging up on Jeremy, he ran to his sister’s room. 

“Barbara,” he pounded on the door, “stop it! You don’t need to
