Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father by Pixie

S21 8. Mother In-Law

“Hello, my daughter-in-law.”

As Melanie walked over, Kara smiled. Her head nodded awkwardly. ”

Hello…, Mom.”

Kara’s tongue tasted bitter. When Melanie arrived in front of her, she almost stepped back. Her mother-in-law’s gaze was like a murderer.

“Sorry I didn’t attend your wedding. I didn’t get any news at that time.” Melanie raised an eyebrow.

“It’s okay, Mom. It was our fault that we missed you from the

law to dare answer like that.

“I’ve always wondered what it would be like to chat with my daughter- in-law. Do you have time? How about we chat outside?”

The invitation sounded like a challenge. Kara accepted it with a small nod even though her heart was pounding violently.

“Would you like something to drink, Mom? Tea, perhaps?” Kara took out her cell phone, preparing to send a message to Nora.

“When did you first meet my son?” Melanie threw a new question. While Kara was stunned, she added, “I really can’t wait to find out how my son fell in love with you.”

Kara blinked for a moment. Knowing her mother-in-law’s true. intention, she lowered her phone and straightened her back.

“We met by accident.”

Melanie suddenly covered her mouth with one hand. “So, the incident was true? I think the media is exaggerating to bring Frank down. So, my son married you because he was forced to? For the sake of your children?”

Kara took a deep breath. Her face looked firm.
