S21 48. Missing Each Other

Louis quickly got off Frank’s lap. “Daddy, Mommy, we’re going on a mission. See you at lunch.”

Kara and Frank nodded slightly. After the children left, they stared at

each other.

“You must be so confused that you have to tell them about your grandmother.” Kara reached for her husband’s fingers.

Frank smiled wryly. “One way to cheer someone up is through diversion. I’m lucky that the children are curious about their great- grandmother. Otherwise, I don’t know how to defend my mother.”

While nodding, Kara rubbed her husband’s shoulder. “It’s okay, Frank. What you did was good.”

However, the man’s gaze remained dim. “Sorry if my mother isn’t as good as your mother.”

Kara stroked Frank’s cheek, asking the corners of his lips to rise. ” Your mother just needs time. Later, her heart will also melt, like. y late grandfather, like your sister.”

“Like me before?” Frank raised an eyebrow.

Kara laughed faintly. “Yes, just like you before. Therefore, be patient.

“I wish I was as patient as you.”

Kara stroked Frank’s eyebrows. “Actually, you are much more patient than me. Otherwise, it would be impossible for us to be together now.”

“That’s not patience, but persistence. Have you forgotten how I struggled to melt your heart?”

Seeing Frank pout, Kara let out a small laugh. “That’s called the

dynamics of life. It won’t be impressive if it’s just flat.”

Suddenly, Kara grabbed Frank’s hand again. “Now, how about we continue what we were doing?”

“Making children?” Frank smiled mischievously.

Kare snorted in disbelief. “Studying the report! You said you wanted. to help me monitor Harris’s company?”

Frank let out a laugh and got up from the sofa. “Okay, okay. But after that-”

“We’ll monitor the twins.”

“Which twins?” Frank teased again.

Kara’s cheeks reddened. “The twins who are making the animation. Please, Frank. Don’t tease me anymore or our work will pile up.”

Unexpectedly, Frank picked up Kara.
