Dark Revenge Of An Unwanted Wife: The Twins Are Not Yours!

Chapter 11: The Twins

"Gianna, what the hell! You told me they were asleep! Isn’t that Kathleen’s voice?" Athena delivered to Gianna an incredulous look, her words shrouded in an accusatory tone.

As she spoke, her legs moved hurriedly out of the sitting room to the well lit hallway.

Gianna hurried after her, cussing intermittently at the swift change in the atmosphere. She didn’t fail, however, to plead her cause.

"Athena, last I checked, they were asleep. I even double checked. How was I supposed to know they were awake?"

Athena had no response to Gianna’s question and plea. She only hoped that the shout she had heard earlier was from protest, and not from pain.

But when she stepped into the room, a sharp cry of anguish escaped her lips.

"What is happening here?!" She screamed thereafter, when she saw her children hugging themselves on the floor. They were crying intensely, passionately.

Athena’s heart-rate plummeted seriously. She hurried over to them, and repeated her question, anxiously.

At her voice, the two children, male and female, aged six, looked up to her with startling blue eyes that reminded Athena of Ewan.

"Mom, an ant bit Kate..." The male responded, deftly pointing the area of pain to Athena, who had settled on the floor right beside them.

Athena sighed in relief at the small sight of red on Kathleen’s arm, before asking Gianna to get the pain reliever.

But Gianna wasn’t at the doorstep when she turned. Her friend was already off to the dining area to get the first aid kit.

Gianna was perceptive enough to know that the pain relieving ointment would be needed.

Just when Athena was about to comfort the little Kathleen who looked at her adoringly, she saw the laptop that was open and running, near them.

Her eyebrows furrowed. Her children hadn’t been asleep in the first place!

"What were you both doing awake?" She asked calmly, almost abandoning Kate who now squirmed underneath her gaze.

Her son licked his lips slowly in response.

Athena had to resist from cursing at Ewan—with all the willpower she possessed.

His resemblance to her son was too canny. Nathaniel was truly a chip of the old block!
