Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father novel Chapter 280

S31 23. Conspire 

“Conspire?” Philip sighed in disbelief. “They are your grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Isn’t it natural that I take them to meet you? Especially the twins. Louis and Emily are very excited to meet you.” 

“Nonsense!” Diana’s breath roared again. Her clenched hands started to tremble. 

“You think I don’t know? You’re the same as those Harper people. It’s not me who has changed, Philip, but you! You’re the one who’s infected with cunning and greed. Don’t make it worse with your charade.” 

Philip pulled his head backward. After getting up, he whispered,” What’s gotten into you, Grandma? Since yesterday, you’ve kept mentioning that Frank and Kara were acting. Now me? You think the memories I told you before were fake?” 

Diana gritted her teeth. She got up then started pushing Philip. 

“Go! I can’t stand you anymore! Go!” 

Philip sighed in disbelief. He stepped back, just to give himself some distance. “You kick me out?” 

Unexpectedly, Diana raised her index finger. Her jaw throbbed. “Put the mask away! I don’t need it. Please stop and admit it, Philip! You came here for an apartment, right? You brought those people here for the payoff.” 

All Philip’s muscles froze. His eyes weren’t even blinking. “Where did you get that information?” 

Diana laughed in pain. “Are you surprised? Same! I was surprised too. I really didn’t expect that an innocent boy would grow up to be as

petty as you.” 

Philip swallowed bitterly. His head shook. “That’s not true. What you heard was wrong.” 

“You still want to deny it?” 

“It’s true that I was offered the apartment, but my intention to bring 

Frank and his family here was not for it. I don’t even mind if the apartment doesn’t be mine.” 

Diana took a breath, about to speak. However, Philip’s palm rose, asking for a pause. 

“I knew what it’s like to be alone. That’s why I thought you also harbored that feeling. I thought by inviting them here, your longing could be relieved. I just wanted to unite a family that had been separated for a long time.” 

Diana laughed again in pain. “My life is fine without them. You still don’t get it?” 

Suddenly, Diana pushed Philip towards the stairs again. “Now get lost. Get out of this house! I don’t want anything to do with you and your friends anymore. I don’t want to see your face anymore.” 

However, Philip was fixed at his position. He was still trying to find a way to break down the misunderstanding. 

Diana became even more furious. She hit Philip harder, and screamed louder. Her noise made everyone gather on the front porch. 

“Grandma? Oh my God,” Abigail caught Diana’s arm and pulled her away from Philip. “Grandma, calm down.” 

“I can’t stay calm, Abi. As long as this ungrateful brat is still in my house, I won’t stay calm.” 

Everyone was confused. They gaped and exchanged glances. Only

Sophia smiled faintly before approaching Diana. 

“Grandma, please control yourself. Your blood pressure will rise if you keep being like this.” She stroked Diana’s back. 

“But he won’t leave, Sophie.” Diana pointed her index finger at Philip. Then, her sharp eyes swept across the people on the other side. “And they’re still bothering me. How can I possibly calm down?” 

Sophia sighed. Gently, she pulled Diana into a hug. “Calm down, Grandma. Let me take care of them later. Now, take a breath. Control your emotions.” 

“I want them gone, Sophia. I can’t stand it.” 

Sophia nodded. While giving a code to Abigail, she led Diana to walk inside. 

“Please get some rest, Grandma. Leave this matter to me. You said that there’s nothing I can’t do, right? I can absolutely solve it.” 

Diana nodded weakly. The, she walked slowly, passing the others without glancing. Her eyes occasionally closed. 

“Mommy, is Grandma sick? Her face is very red,” Emily whispered when Diana was out of sight. 

Kara stroked Emily’s chubby cheek. “Yes, it seems that Grandma’s high blood pressure has recurred. Let’s pray that she gets better quickly, hmm?” 

Emily nodded. Meanwhile, Barbara and Frank approach Philip. 

“Philip, are you okay?” Barbara touched her lover’s arm. 

Philip smiled wryly. He pinched the bridge of his nose, massaging it for a moment. “Sorry, our conversation didn’t go well. Grandma just hated us even more.” 

Frank massaged Philip’s shoulders. “It’s okay. She is indeed difficult

to deal with. But what made her so angry?” 

“He said I had changed. Petty, greedy, full of charades. I don’t know 

who told her, she said I brought you here for the sake of the 

apartment.” 

The twins stared wide eyed. They glanced at each other then 

swallowed hard. Barbara also showed the same reaction. 

“Could it be that Grandma heard our conversation yesterday then she 

misunderstood?” she muttered. 

Frank furrowed his brows. “I don’t think so.” 

“You guys talked about it?” Jeremy inquired. 

Barbara nodded. However, before she could tell the story, Louis stepped forward. 

“Daddy.” 

The boy pinched his trousers. His brows were slightly furrowed. A second later, Emily was standing next to him. The little girl couldn’t, stop playing with her own fingers. 

“We’re sorry. Looks like Grandma Diana was angry because of what 

we said.” 

Frank raised an eyebrow. “What do you mean, Buddy?” 

The twins exchanged glances for a moment. 

“Last night, while putting the dishes in the sink, we met Sophia. We chatted for a while. Then, she asked about Philip’s mission.” 

Emily nodded. With his head slightly lowered, her eyes looked 

rounder. “Sophia asked us to spill the bean. At first we refused. But because she said she was a friend and was willing to help, we told 

her.” 

Everyone fell silent. Philip pinched the bridge of his nose, Jeremy scratched his temple, while Frank sighed in disbelief. 

“Now we know who is responsible for Grandma’s madness.” 

Emily became increasingly shrunken. Her eyes started to water. “Will we be punished?” She bit her lip. 

Louis’ eye bags also thickened. “We’re sorry, Daddy. We have
