The Billionaire Twins Need A New Mommy! novel Chapter 695

Chapter 695: I’m Your Partner

"Let’s beat them at their own game!"

Invisible fire engulfed Lola, her eyes burning with renewed motivation. After the twins let her rest and said all that, all she wanted right now was to finish everything and finally rest. They would only get that well-deserved rest once all these conspiracies were resolved.

So, sacrificing some family time for now was necessary so they could have more in the future.

But her words were met with silence... and then the birds’ croaking outside.

"Huh?" Lola snapped her eyes toward everyone inside, only to realize the people in the room were... people she didn’t know.

She blinked, scanning every face, until she spotted Scarlet among them. The latter was just staring at her with a deadpan expression.

"What are you doing?" Scarlet asked with a raised brow, seated at a table where they were having a meeting with representatives from another department. "Beat them at their own game?"

"Madam?" another one called in confusion. "What are you... doing here?"

Lola forced a smile and stepped back. "Oops. Wrong room." Then she reached for the knob and quietly pulled the door closed. "Sorry. Go on, don’t mind me. I’m just a woman with renewed motivation... and no sleep. I didn’t mean to interrupt your meeting, but don’t mind me. I definitely didn’t hear anything, and I have no idea what you were talking... definitely didn’t see that monitor..."

As Lola slowly shut the door, her explanation grew more muffled, and her awkward chuckles sounded slightly creepy.

Everyone inside just stared at her with parted lips until the door fully closed.

"Isn’t that... the Madam?" one of them wondered. "Was she angry? She looked like she was on fire."

"A little? She could’ve burned the door with that motivation."

"Is it because of Ravah? Did some good news reach her?" 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Others chuckled, clearly seeing her in a different light than before. Ravah had been a massive success, and strategically, it served a huge purpose for the Order. Not to mention, with Lola’s lead, everyone there had made it out alive.

At least, that was what the main teams in Ravah reported. So most of the credit went to Lola.

"Maybe she should go to the council meetings and kick those arrogant founding family heads’ asses! Hahaha!" another joked, as if he hadn’t once criticized her. "I even heard she had a dance number in Ravah."

"Yeah, I heard she had a weird taste in music."

Everyone laughed, while Scarlet merely raised a brow at how quickly they got sidetracked. She shook her head but let them talk before steering them back.

This is better, she thought. Better than the Order arguing about the role of the matriarch.

"Everyone, let’s get back to work," Scarlet announced firmly, cutting through the laughter. "We’re still discussing Ravah’s reconstruction. Let’s continue."

Meanwhile...

"Goodness." Lola shook her head as she walked down the hallway. "I got so motivated I went to the wrong floor."

She shivered and lightly slapped her cheeks to stay awake.

Soon, she reached the room she had left earlier that day. Before entering, she double-checked the room number. Once sure, she knocked once and pushed the door open.

The first thing she saw was Atlas, standing before the board Hugo had worked on earlier. His sleeves were rolled to his elbows, his tie gone, and the top three buttons of his shirt undone.
