The Billionaire Twins Need A New Mommy! novel Chapter 827

Chapter 827: Lola, Are You...?

"Wow..." Lola trailed off, her face twisting in dismay as she stared at the mountain of papers Amala had just dropped on her desk. She looked up, catching Amala smiling across from her.

"Amala, I didn’t offend you, did I?" she asked with an awkward smile. "I’m just visiting. You didn’t have to bury me with this much work."

Amala smiled. "These are your responsibilities to begin with. Lola, I’m just the acting CEO right now, and I still need your approval for these things. Don’t worry. I’ll stay here with you..." she trailed off as she shifted her eyes to the couch. "Right, Haji?"

"Hey, don’t drag me into that," Haji scoffed, his feet idly resting on the table. "I’m useless when it comes to those kinds of things. Keep me out of it."

"Gosh." Lola felt the corners of her eyes tear up as she looked at the papers.

On top of helping Atlas in the Order, Lola had her own company to manage as well. Amala might be here doing most of the work, but there were still things Lola needed to handle personally. However, since Ravah and Yuri’s case, she had completely neglected her duties.

Now, they had morphed into a mountain of work.

"No running away today." Amala knocked on the desk with a smile. "You need to finish this today, alright?"

Lola pouted a little. "Amala, Atlas and I are trying to have a kid, you know? I don’t think I should overwork..." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

"Lola, you’re not planning to pass this to your husband, are you?"

"Of course not!" she puffed her cheeks, twirling a finger around a portion of her hair. "But if he wants to, who am I to refuse? He told me that I don’t need to work and that I can just focus on—"

Lola stopped when she noticed Haji and Amala just staring at her blankly.

"Fine!" she clicked her tongue. "I’m working, and I’m not passing this to my husband. I’m just saying he’s a workaholic. He would eat this up with a smile."

"She’s just being lazy," Haji muttered as he watched her quietly protest behind the desk before finally starting to work. "Back then, this girl would work everyone to death. But look at her being complacent now—tsk."

Meanwhile, Amala simply smiled as she watched Lola focus on the mountain of work.

"Isn’t that a good thing?" she whispered as she faced Haji. "Haji, don’t talk like you haven’t changed as well."

Haji pointed at himself. "I didn’t change."

"Haha. If that’s what you say." Amala shook her head as she leaned back in her seat, helping Lola shave down the mountain of work she had to finish.

Lola and Atlas had been trying for a child after she made sure the birth control she had used had completely dissolved. From what Amala knew, there had been a small residue left. So, Lola had it removed.

That was about a month ago or so, Amala thought, her eyes drifting to Lola.

But before Amala could wonder further, the door suddenly flew open.

Everyone turned toward the door just as Silo’s booming voice filled the room.

"Look what I got!" Silo shouted, holding boxes of pizza, a bucket of fried chicken, cans of beer, and a few more bags of food. "Let’s drink!"

Then, peeking from behind him was Cedrick, holding a box of cake.

"I’m also here."

"Oh, you too!" Lola perked up happily, her eyes brightening when she saw Cedrick. The latter smiled as he blushed slightly, seeing Lola again after a while.

With Silo and Cedrick bringing food and drinks, Amala knew it couldn’t be helped. It had been a while since Lola was here, and they rarely had the chance to gather like this.

Hence, Haji cleared the center table of the documents and replaced them with the feast the duo had brought.
