Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father by Pixie

S21 71. Bitter Reality

Melanie got up and walked quickly towards her daughter. The others immediately stepped aside, while Emily ran towards Philip. Barbara quickly protected her wound.

“Oh, my sweet daughter. Are you not sick anymore? People said you needed to be hospitalized for a few days. I wanted to visit you, but they didn’t allow me. They were afraid I would be hysterical.”

Melanie stroked Barbara’s hair, as she usually did. However, Barbara felt strange. She couldn’t even smile

“Yes, I’m getting better. How are you Mom? Are you getting better too?” Her voice was hoarse.

“I’m not sick. I just miss you, Darling. But now, you’re home. There’s nothing more for me to worry about. As soon as your dad comes home, we’ll have dinner together, hmm?”

Everyone was stunned. They glanced at the officers standing guard near the door in unison.

“Why is my mother like this? Are you taking care of her properly? Barbara sighed, as Melanie continued to play with her hair.

Before the officer could answer, Melanie suddenly pointed her fi at Philip. “Darling, who is this man? Is he the man you chose?”

Philip stared wide eyed, and so did Emily. The little girl kept to sh backwards, not caring if her shoes met Philip’s.

Meanwhile, Barbara’s tears spilled harder. “Yes, he’s my boyfriend, she said sadly.

Melanie’s laughter echoed. Cupping Philip’s face, she shook her head slowly.

Philip’s lips trembled. He didn’t know whether the truth could be accepted or not.

Before he could answer, Barbara interrupted, “Phil. His name is Phil.”

“Phil?” Melanie’s eyebrows pressed against her forehead. Her eyeballs shook as if checking her memory.

“That’s a great name. What about your business, Phil? What company do you run?”

Philip swallowed hard. “I work with the Harper family.” He didn’t want to fake his identity.

Melanie’s tone rose. The people around her turned alert.
