Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father by Pixie

S2 64. Where is Mom?

“Your aunt is awake,” Philip said.

“Really?”

As Louis and Emily stood on tiptoes, Frank and Kara approached from the other side of the bed.

“Hey,” Kara rubbed Barbara’s arm, “how are you feeling?”

Barbara blinked. Her consciousness had not yet gathered. After a while, she whispered, “Water.”

Philip hurriedly took a bottle of water equipped with a straw. The twins were stunned to see his alacrity.

“Auntie, how are you? Does it still hurt?” Emily jumped up and down a little, trying to get her face out from under the bed.

The taller Louis just had to look up and stay on his tiptoes. “We came here to give you encouragement. You must get well soon, Auntie.”

While Philip returned the water bottle, Barbara checked around. Her lips let out a little air.

“My body feels strange. I also feel nauseous.”

“It might be the effect of the anesthesia. Has she been checked again?” Frank looked at Philip.

Philip shook his head.

“Then, let me call the nurse.”

“Where’s Mom?”

Frank fell silent for a moment. His feet failed to move. All eyes were now on him, including the twins whom Philip had moved onto chairs.

“She….” Seeing Barbara’s still weak condition, Frank curled up his lips. “She’s at home.”

“Is she okay?”

The twins rolled their eyes carefully They were curious whether their father would lie further or not. Barbara didn’t seem ready to accept reality.

Frank nodded. “She’s a little shaken up. But don’t worry. I’ve asked an expert to treat her mental condition. She’ll get better soon.”

The twins were amazed at the way their father conveyed the truth without the element of surprise.

Barbara sighed in relief. “That’s good.”

Kara said softly. “Whoever recovers faster can visit the
