Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father by Pixie

S31 173. Newlywed Rituals
“Look how steep those mountains are, Phil!” Barbara bowed down, peering at the
mountain peaks that could be seen through the windshield. “Is the mountain we
are going to climb that steep?”
Philip glanced at his wife with a faint smile. “Why? Are you scared?”
Barbara's lips pursed. “No. I'm with you. Why should I be afraid?”
When she returned her gaze to the front, Barbara immediately pointed. her index
finger. “Look! That house is so cute. And why is it red again? Do all the houses
here have red walls?"
“Did you know? In ancient times, the paint color of the houses here
reflected the social status of the owners.
Barbara's eyebrows rose. “Social status?”
Philip nodded. “Yes. Red paint is the cheapest compared to other paints.
Because of this, many residents such as farmers and
fishermen paint their houses red.”
While Barbara's mouth widened, Philip added, “Apart from that, there is yellow
paint which is more expensive, then white paint. From there, the color of paint
has become a symbol of a person's wealth. People who have white houses are
rich people.”
“Is that still true today?”
Philip shook his head. “I don't think so. But apparently, it has become a habit.
The houses in the fields and areas close to the sea are mostly still red.”
“But it's become a distinctive feature. If the twins saw it, they'd definitely say
those houses are cool” Barbara muttered before straightening her back.
“Anyway, I just realized. It turns out you're
+25 BONUS
really smart.”
Philip snorted in amusement. “I've only heard about it, Babe. Didn't really learn.”
“But still, you sound smart. What else do you know?”
Philip muttered, racking his brain. “You know that Lofoten is on the Arctic Circle,
right?”
Barbara nodded hesitantly. “Yes.”
“Then why doesn't it freeze? Surfers even love visiting one of the beaches. Can
you imagine? Surfing in polar waters.”
Barbara froze. Her mouth rounded, realizing the fact. “Is it because it's summer?”
“No. Even in winter, the average temperature rarely goes below
freezing point. Only the mountain peaks are cold with snow. Areas, near the
coast still have snow, but they tend to be warmer. The sea water doesn't freeze
either.”
“How come?” Barbara's head moved forward.
“Because of the meeting of the Gulf Stream with two underwater currents, the
North Atlantic Current and the Norwegian Current. weather is warmer and cooler
than other areas of the Arctic Circ That's why Lofoten is the largest temperature
increase anomaly the world-the warmest place in the Arctic Circle, paradise at
the north pole.”
Barbara nodded. Her eyes looked at Philip with admiration.
“You're really smart, Phil. Do you like reading?”
“Not really. I've only heard of it.”
“Looks like I have to read more diligently. I don’t want to embarrass you by
having a stupid wife like me.

Philip turned his head with a sweet smile. “I'm glad you have the desire to try. But
you have to know Babe. Whatever your condition, I'm still proud of you.”
Barbara smiled. Her heart drifted again. However, when her eyes caught the
ocean from the side window, her attention was diverted.” Oh, it's the sea. Are we
close to the bridge?”
“Yes. We'll cross it soon.” Philip stepped on the gas. He was secretly relieved
that Barbara hadn't noticed the red car that had been in a
distance in front of them.
Upon arrival at the inn, Barbara whispered to Philip, “The paint is really red.”
“And you already know why,” Philip said, amused.
After getting the cabin key, they walked cheerfully. However, seeing. who came
out from the next cabin, their smiles faded.
“That girl again?” Barbara grumbled softly.
“Hi, new couple! We meet again? Which cabin are you in?” The blo approached
at a leisurely pace.
Barbara almost rolled her eyes. Exhaling, she pointed at the next
cabin.
“Oh, we're neighbors? What an extraordinary coincidence. Maybe
we're soul mates.”
Suddenly, the blonde girl offered her hand to Barbara. “How about we become
friends? I'm Shania, and the one with me was Poppy, my best friend. We're from
the UK. Our hobby is traveling to various countries.”
Barbara looked at the slender fingers suspiciously. After a blink, she greeted her
lazily.
“I'm Barbara and this is my husband Philip. We're on our honeymoon
+25 BONUS
here.”
“Yeah, I can see that. It's nice to meet you.”
Shania shifted her outstretched hand. However, instead of shaking hands with
Philip, he was greeted by the same hand.
“Yeah, us too. Thank you for taking such a spectacular portrait on the ship
earlier.”
Shania blinked dryly. She knew it was harsh sarcasm. “Then how about we go on
a trip together? We can take photos and help each other. The trip will definitely
be more fun.”
Barbara's eyebrows arched high. Just as she was about to answer, Philip
interrupted, “Babe, do you want to have a long chat? How about I carry your bag
in?” Philip propped up the bottom of Barbara's bag
again.
“Oh, no need, Baby. Let's go in together.” Barbara patted Philip on the shoulder
before looking at the blonde again. “Sorry, Shania. We really appreciate your
offer, but we already have our own plans. Now if you'll excuse me. We want to
rest. We had a long journey to get here.”
Shania let Philip disappear from sight with sour face. Realizing that the man
almost never paid attention to her, her heart felt hot. When she entered the cabin,
Poppy brought it up.
“Did it work?"
Shania threw herself into a chair. “My assessment isn't wrong. He is ery warm
and caring. He was afraid that his wife was tired, so he helped her carry the
bags. He's also loyal, the type of man who wouldn't look at other women.”

“That's the problem I have to solve. I have to find a way so that he can't take his
eyes off me.” Shania folded her arms, squinting out the
+25 BONUS
window.
While the girl continued to think, in the next cabin, Barbara was busy exploring
every corner of the wooden building.
“It's very beautiful, Phil. The vibe is very far from urban.” She stroked the wall in
front of her. “I feel like I'm in the past.”
“You haven't seen this. The view is even more beautiful,” Philip said, pulling back
the curtain next to the dining table.
“Really?”
Barbara approached. As soon as she checked out the window, she was stunned.
“Wow! Sea, grass, mountains, and blue sky. This is perfect, Phil.”
“And me?” Philip tilted his head, bringing his face into Barbara's view.
Laughing, Barbara kissed his cheek. “Yes, and you. I think I can’t wait to ride a
kayak there.”

“What? Rest? We're still jetlagged, right?” Barbara played dumb.
Philip's eyes narrowed. “How about we play on the bed? When we're tired, then
we'll rest.”
“Aren't you curious to explore Reine?”
“How about I explore your body first? This is a honeymoon. Many new couples
use it as a moment to get closer.”
Barbara's head tilted back. “Are we still not close enough?”
“There's still some distance left.” Philip pulled Barbara by the waist towards him.
“This is the real close.”

Barbara sighed in amusement. “Your snake is very naughty.”
When Philip bent down, she greeted his lips gently. She let him push her little by
little towards the bed.
