Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father novel Chapter 361

S31 104. Dilemma 

“Don’t you learn from mistakes?” Ava sighed in between her irregular breaths. “I’m weak and having no skills. I failed to carry out Sophia’s mission. Why do you still want to give me such a big task?” 

“Because I know you will learn from your mistakes. You remember the accident you had some time ago, right? The Moore family never plays around, Darling. With a threat as big as your sister’s life, are you still willing to fail?” 

After a snort of laughter, Patricia whispered, “No. You don’t want to 

fail.” 

Ava’s tears rolled down her cheeks. However, she didn’t wipe it. She didn’t have the energy anymore. She was too tired of carrying a big 

dilemma in her heart. 

“What do you want this time? Inject Melanie with the wrong medicine again?” 

“No. I’m not interested in that woman. She’s too small. I need 

prey.” 

“Who? Frank Harper? You know I’m no match for him. Even your husband failed to beat him. I’ll fall down before the tip of my needle touches his skin.” 

Patricia laughed faintly. “I like your realistic thinking, but no-it’s not him I’m after. What about his kids? It wouldn’t be hard for you to give them deadly candy, right?” 

Ava’s heart seemed to drop into her stomach. She winced at the pain. 

“You really don’t have feelings, hmm? How could I bear to hurt Louis and Emily? They’re still so young. They’ve only been alive for four

years. You already want to finish them off?” 

“Make no mistake, Miss Connor. They are not children. Their bodies. are small, but their souls are like cunning old people. Do you think they could tear up my family’s yacht if they were only four years old?” 

Ava sighed tiredly. “No, I won’t be able to. I’ll end up stabbing myself if I plan to give them poisoned needles.” 

Patricia hissed. “You’re very weak. If that’s the case, we’ll have to 

change targets. What about the baby? It’s not a human yet, is it? And I doubt there’s a life in it.” 

Ava sighed in disbelief. “You want me to harm Mrs. Harper?” 

“Exactly. That’s much easier, right? You can do it.” 

Ava shook her head quickly. “No. I can’t. That little creature hasn’t even breathed. You want me to destroy its hopes of stepping on 

earth?” 

Ava sounded angry. Patricia giggled in response. “Please don’t exaggerate it, Miss Connor. That thing can’t be considered alive yet. It’s not even fully formed. You don’t need to endanger the mother. That little thing is enough.” 

“Aren’t you a mother? How could you say something like that? 

“Precisely because I’m a mother, I know that little thing can be n whenever the parents want. If this one falls, the Harpers can make again. It won’t be difficult.” 

Ava snorted. “No, I would rather destroy myself than that fetus.” 

Patricia made a strange voice from her throat. “You’re really lousy. So who can you kill to save your sister? Oh….” 

Patricia suddenly burst into laughter. “What about the guy? Jeremy Harper.”

Hearing that name, Ava gasped. Her lips turned pale and her knees went weak. She had to hold on to a chair so she wouldn’t fall. 

“Jeremy… Harper?” she sighed weakly. “Don’t you have a grudge against Frank? Why are you targeting his brother instead? 

“He’s Frank’s right-hand man and older brother. I heard they are very close. If one dies, the other will definitely feel very lost.” 

Ava covered her mouth with a fist. The wound in her heart felt like it had just been doused with vinegar. Frank wasn’t the only one who felt empty if Jeremy was gone. She was too. 

“He’s a man. How could I possibly beat him?” The trembling in Ava’s voice was undeniable. 

“Don’t you live at his house? I heard, you guys are quite close and he trusts you. So you can approach him at any time. Use your brain, Darling. And maybe, a little flirting.” 

Ava swallowed hard. She had to put her phone away so that Patricial wouldn’t hear the sadness stuck in her throat. 

“Okay! This is our final agreement. Jeremy Harper,” Patricia said firmly. “He’s not a child, he’s lived long enough, and you can e outsmart him. No more negotiations or I will not spare your siste 

life.” 

“Wait-” 

“I’ll give you 24 hours. If by that time I haven’t received sad news about him, your sister will have to pay for your negligence.” 

“No, please…. Mrs. Moore, why don’t you kill me? It’s okay for me to atone for their actions with my life. Mrs. Moore? Mrs. Moore!” 

Seeing that her phone screen had returned to showing the wallpaper, Ava’s whole body was shaking. Her knees collapsed onto the floor.

“No…. How could I possibly kill Jeremy? He’s my friend. He….” Ava. choked. She could no longer continue her words. The memory of her time with Jeremy had paralyzed her mind, minced her heart until the pain was unbearable. 

One minute, one hour, one night. When morning came, Ava was still curled up, hiding her head behind the folded arms on her knees. She didn’t know what she should do with Jeremy. She didn’t dare imagine.

“Morning, Mom.” Jeremy kissed Vivian’s temple before sitting down. A faint smile appeared on his face. However, seeing that the other seats were empty, the light in his eyes dimmed a little. 

“What’s wrong, Son?” Vivian smiled faintly. 

Jeremy blinked. “Nothing. I just felt it’s very quiet this morning. Last night, the seats were full.” 

“Ava said her mother wanted to eat in her room. Maybe she will join us after feeding her mother.” 

Jeremy’s eyes widened a bit when he heard that. During brest, he occasionally glanced towards the door. However, until the 

food left on his plate, Ava had not yet arrived. 

“That’s it. No need to be shy. Hurry up and meet her,” Vivian te 

Jeremy raised his eyebrows. “Please don’t misunderstand, Mom. A and I are friends. I don’t expect her to eat with us.”
