The Billionaire Twins Need A New Mommy! novel Chapter 739

Chapter 739: Allen’s Story

Lola paced back and forth, biting her thumbnail as her mind raced.

"Madam," Allen called, stopping by the door with a bottle of water. He let out a shallow breath as he extended it toward her.

Lola glanced at the bottle and took it. "Thanks."

"Sir Charles will be fine," Allen said, though even he wasn’t completely sure. "Miss Penny and Sir Zoren are there."

"Sure," Lola rocked her head slightly and set the bottle down on the table. She rested one hand against it and exhaled heavily. "Sure."

Earlier that day, Atlas had received a call from Anteca informing him that Charles had been in an accident. Without hesitation, Atlas left with his brothers. Lola stayed behind—someone had to—and Allen couldn’t oversee everything alone.

Even with Sybil’s help, someone still needed to remain.

That had been an hour ago.

Allen pressed his lips into a thin line and walked over, leaning his back against the table. He opened his mouth, but all he managed at first was a deep exhale.

"You don’t have to comfort me, Allen," Lola said, her eyes scanning the files spread across the table. "I’m fine... sort of. Just worried. Izu is already forming a team, and Florida is helping him. They’ll need to set out this evening and hope those three hold on until backup arrives."

"And hopefully, we’ll have something useful by tomorrow morning," she added, listing their priorities. "That... we need to succeed."

Once they had Vito, they could only hope he’d lead them to Yuri. Or better yet, that Pika and Tyga would uncover something in the recordings and provide new leads.

After that, they could plan how to deal with the church.

It was a complicated situation.

Allen stayed quiet, listening as Lola went over the priorities they had already established before the emergency call. She wasn’t circling the issue to find answers; she was repeating them because she needed to.

It was understandable.

The injured man was Charles, and no one knew the full extent of Atlas’s father’s condition. All they knew was that he’d been in an accident while on his way to pick up his sons-in-law.

Allen looked away, his gaze lowering.

"When..." he began, hesitating before continuing. "When I decided to follow Sir Atlas, I thought I understood what this work would be like. Looking back, I underestimated its complexity."

Lola’s brows twitched as she slowly turned toward him.

"From the outside, it looks like Sir Atlas is just running another company. Just a bigger one," Allen continued. "But it’s nothing like that. There are nations and governments we constantly have to monitor. We need to understand not only their politics, but their cultures—everything about them."

"It’s not a thousand employees," he went on. "It’s millions of people who don’t even know that behind their governments is a family capable of bringing everything down... or making it prosper."
