Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father by Pixie

34. Unusual Attention

After Wela closed the door, Frank moved closer to Kara. One of his hand rose to stroke her pale cheek. His movements were so light as if he was afraid of increasing the pain there.

“I’m sorry,” he whispered softly. “If I knew this could happen, I would have let you eat Ben’s chocolate.”

Frank thought he would feel better after saying those words. But apparently not, the image of Kara stumbling into his arms recurred more and more often. Her groan pierced his heart.

After one quick breath, Frank rose from the edge of the bed. It would be better for him to continue working than to dwell on regrets.

When she woke up, Kara immediately frowned. Her head still felt heavy, but the world wasn’t spinning like before.

“Are you still dizzy?”

Kara looked to the side. Frank was standing with his hands stuffed in his pockets. He was dressed casually.

Instead of answering, Kara sat down. Knowing she was in the CEO’s bed, her brows furrowed.

“Don’t be surprised,” Frank interrupted before Kara could ask. “I just want to make up for my grandfather’s harsh treatment.”

Kara took a deep breath. Pursing her lips, she got out of bed.

However, because she got up too quickly, she lost her balance. A

second later, she landed in Frank’s arms.

“Are you still dizzy?” Frank asked worriedly.

“Like you care?”

Kara’s voice was so cold. Frank was stunned to hear that. He didn’t even dare to stop Kara from getting out of his grip.

Kara looked around for a moment. “I want to go home.” No thanks followed. Instead, she took her bag and phone on the table.
