Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father novel Chapter 374

S31 117. Jeremy Being Romantic 

Jeremy’s expression suddenly turned tense. “Is it a serious problem?” 

Ava nodded. “It hurts my heart not to say it.” 

“What is it?” Jeremy sounded impatient. 

“I’m sorry if in the past, I thought you were a stiff, cold and heartless man. I even swore and cursed at you. In fact, you were only doing your duty. I was the one who was at fault at that time.” 

Jeremy’s eyebrows pressed against his forehead. “I remember your harsh sentences, but… it turns out that’s how you judged me?” 

Smiling wryly, Ava nodded. “Didn’t you think like that about me too? A stiff girl who was selfish and heartless? Don’t pretend you don’t remember. The way you looked at me stated it clearly.” 

Jeremy snorted a laugh. His heart was relieved to realize that his worries had been excessive. “Okay, I think the problem is clear now. Are we even?” 

Frowning, Ava shook her head. “Not yet. Do you remember the firs moment you faced me? You held me like this.” 

Ava pushed Jeremy until he fell on the bed. Then, she pressed his neck with her left arm and pressed his shoulder with her right hand. 

“When I fought back, you even pressed your knee on my stomach even though you know I’m a woman. Do you know how panicked I was at that time?” 

Instead of feeling guilty, Jeremy smiled slightly. “Your memory isn’t quite right, Ava. If you’re in this position, you can still struggle. See? My hands can still do a lot of things.” 

Ava 

instoked down at what Jeremy’s fingers were doing to her. In an 

instant, her face froze and her body stiffened. 

“I’m punishing you. You still dare act?” 

For the first time, Ava heard Jeremy chuckle out loud. The sound was pleasant. 

“Okay, I surrender. Punish me whatever you want.” Jeremy folded his arms under his head. His gaze was gentle and seductive. 

Without hesitation, Ava pressed her knee against Jeremy’s stomach. However, feeling the hardness of his muscles and seeing his relaxed face, her eyes widened. 

“Doesn’t it hurt?” Ava tapped Jeremy’s stomach like she was examining a rock. 

“Maybe you need to think of another way to torture me.” 

“It’s not fair. I don’t know how to torture you.” 

Ava prodded Jeremy’s body with her finger, looking for ticklish spots. As she approached the shoulder area, Jeremy stopped supporting h head with his arm. Seeing that, Ava’s eyes narrowed. 

“Raise your hand again.” 

“What for?” 

Smiling, Ava forced Jeremy to raise his hand again. When his armpit was exposed, she immediately tickled it. In an instant, Jeremy writhed while holding back laughter. 

“Ava, wait. Hahaha….” He tried to dodge it. 

“Jeremy, you said you’ve given up. Don’t fight.” 

However, Jeremy tickled her waist In an instant, laughter erupted. The two people were lost in the fun, not knowing that someone was 

hearing from outside.

“I’m not lying, Philip. Uncle Jeremy did hold Ava’s hand. Like this!” Louis took his younger sister’s hand, showing it. “If you don’t believe me, just ask Emily.” 

The little girl nodded. “Yes, I saw it too. Uncle Jeremy seems to really love Ava.” 

Philip leaned back in his chair and rubbed his chin. His head tilted.” This is too unbelievable. Jeremy has no experience with women, and he’s stiff. He can act like that?” 

Barbara’s eyes narrowed at Philip. “Does it mean you’ve been close to other women before me?” 

Philip’s eyebrows rose. He found jealousy in his future wife’s eyes-a sign of danger. “Don’t you know? I’m the idol of the girls at school, but I’m not interested in them. You can’t be angry because your future husband is popular, right?” 

Barbara blinked with pursed lips. While tucking her hair behind h ear, she said, “It that’s the story, no. I’m actually proud. But you’re right about Jeremy, Baby. Jeremy being romantic? That’s hard to imagine.” 

Frank and Kara pursed their lips together. Seeing that his parents were hesitant too, Louis brought the sandwich away from his mouth. He needed to provide more convincing information. 

“That happened twice, Mommy, Daddy. In front of his house, Uncle Jeremy held Ava’s hand again.” 

“But it wasn’t romantic, Louis. They seemed to be fighting.” 

“To me it’s still romantic. They fight, but they still love each other.” 

Η 

“What’s the problem?” Kara reached out her hand, rubbing 

mayonnaise on Louis’ cheek which had been bothering her. 

“I don’t know, Mommy. Emily and I watched from afar. When we got off, Ava had already come in.” Louis shrugged. 

“I think Jeremy asked Ava to marry him,” Emily continued with pursed lips. “But Ava refused because Uncle Jeremy didn’t give her a romantic proposal.” 

All the adults in the room were wide-eyed. They forget about the rest of the food on their plates in an instant. 

“Really? Jeremy proposed to Ava?” Philip and Barbara asked at the same time. 

The twins nodded firmly. The adults were even more amazed. 

“Wow, Jeremy is full of surprises.” Philip nodded slowly.
