Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father by Pixie

“Mommy, do you think Eva is okay? Why hasn't Uncle Jeremy given us any
news?” Emily blinked at Kara. Her tiny hands kept giving her
mother massages.
Kara turned her head with a gentle smile. “Eva must be very sad and shaken.
Maybe Uncle Jeremy and Ava are busy calming her down.”
Louis stopped massaging his mother. He checked the time then pursed his lips.
“But it's been an hour, Mommy. Uncle Jeremy must have let us know if Eva is
fine.”
“Or it could be,” Frank interrupted in a half-whisper, inviting the twins to listen
carefully, “Uncle Jeremy forgot to tell you guys. He's become more forgetful since
dating Ava. Maybe because his mind is too full with her.”
Emily’s eyes narrowed. Her head tilted slightly. “I think that makes sense.
Moreover, Eva must be crying and her voice is loud. It disturbs Uncle's
concentration.” Emily patted his ear lightly.
“Daddy, is there any way to stop Mrs. Moore? I don't think she will stop doing bad
things if she doesn’t go to prison. Why doesn’t Daddy report her to the police?”
Frank's gaze shifted to Louis. His son was looking at him with sad eyes. “To
report someone to the police, we need strong evidence. Otherwise, she could
report us with accusations of defamation and false reports.”
Louis’ eyes and mouth widened. “Does it mean Daddy can go to prison?”
“Yes, that possibility exists, but it won't happen if we're careful.”

Emily raised her shoulders, pinching her neck. “I don’t want Daddy to go to
prison.” Her head shook slightly.
“Calm down, Princess. Daddy won't go to prison. Daddy is a good person.” Kara
stroked Emily's cheek.
Suddenly, footsteps sounded from the door. Seeing Jeremy and Ava walk in,
everyone's eyes widened.
“Uncle Jeremy?” Louis jumped down from the sofa. “What happened? How is
Eva? Why didn't Uncle tell us?”
Jeremy glanced at Ava briefly. Instead of answering Louis’ question, he spoke to
Ava. “You must be tired. Take a rest.”
“Yes.” Ava took a deep breath and looked down. “Sorry everyone. I just need
some time alone. Excuse me.”
While hiding her red eyes, Ava went up the stairs. Everyone froze until she was
no longer visible.
“What happened, Jer?" Frank broke the silence.
Jeremy's jaw became even harder. His hands clenched into fists remembering
the incident earlier.
“Eva wasn't hurt, but she was devastated because nothing cou saved from her
boutique. She blamed Ava and said that they wer longer family or relatives.”
“Ava is sad because Eva blamed her?” Emily's brow furrowed upward
Jeremy nodded. “She’s confused about what to do with Eva. And now she’s
confused about how to tell her mother. By the way, what are you guys doing
here? Aren't you supposed to accompany Mrs. Connor to therapy?”
“We ran away when Mommy and Daddy arrived. We said we wanted to play with
Mommy and Daddy. Mrs. Connor didn’t suspect anything.
“Louis shook his head slightly.
Jeremy nodded. Stuffing his hands into pockets, he thought again. Unexpectedly,
the sound of a wheelchair came from behind his back.
“Mrs Connor?”
The woman's eyes looked red. Her lips trembled to suppress the turmoil in her
chest. When Bryan stopped the wheelchair in front of Jeremy, she tried to make a
sound. “What happened to Eva's boutique?”
The twins subconsciously held their breath. Frank and Kara didn’t dare move.
They were all waiting, what response Jeremy would give and how Mrs Connor
would react.
“A fire broke out at Eva's boutique.”
Mrs. Connor took a deep breath and closed her eyes for a moment. Her fists
seemed to be shaking.
“Does this have anything to do with that Patricia?”
Jeremy swallowed hard. “It cannot be confirmed yet. The police are still
investigating.”
“According to you?” Mrs. Connor looked at Jeremy more closely.
Jeremy nodded. Mrs Connor let out a sigh. “Where is Eva now?”
“I just asked the bodyguard who followed her. She went home. She hasn't come
out again until now.”
“Is there a possibility that Patricia will strike again after what happened to her
boutique?”
Frank finally stood up and approached Mrs. Connor and Jeremy. “I don’t think so.
The Moores rarely attack their targets directly. They always target their
opponent's weaknesses. In Eva's case, it's her boutique.”

Mrs. Connor tried to nod, but her neck was too stiff. “That's good. That boutique
is nothing compared to Eva's life.”
Jeremy was stunned. She didn't expect her future mother-in-law’s reaction to be
so calm.
“Sorry. I was negligent in looking after your youngest daughter. I should have
been one step ahead of Patricia. But apparently, I was too late. I didn’t expect her
to act this quickly.”
Before Mrs. Connor could speak, Jeremy added, “And please don’t blame Ava.
All of this happened because of Patricia's grudge against my family. This has
nothing to do with Ava.”
For a long time, Mrs. Connor kept silence. Her eyes flickered studying Jeremy.
Her expression was hard to read.
“Don't apologize. I taught Eva wrong since the beginning. If she hadn't grown up
with that kind of temperament, she wouldn't have been in danger.”
Jeremy was stunned again. The woman in front of him didn’t seem like the Mrs.
Connor he knew. Could it be that Eva's confession in the yard had opened her
eyes and awakened her heart?

“Emily is right. Besides, regretting won't change reality. As Daddy says, we'd
better think about our next steps rather than regretting what's past.” Louis
nodded firmly.
Mrs. Connor's eyes filled with tears hearing them.
“So, what steps should I take? The relationship between my two daughters has

Mrs. Connor froze. Her brows furrowed slightly, her eyes shaking
even more violently. She felt slapped. All this time, she had been too busy
thinking about Eva. She never paid enough attention to Ava.
Then, with a face full of regret, Mrs. Connor turned towards the stairs. “Can you
guys help me go upstairs?”
Jeremy raised his eyebrows. “You want to talk to Ava? She can come down to
see you.”
“No. I want to see her. Is that possible?”
The men exchanged glances. A second later, they agreed to take Mrs. Connor
upstairs.
