Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father by Pixie

“What’s the big deal? Grandma doesn’t want to know about her ex- husband anymore. Telling her about Rowan will only open up the old wounds,” Sophia said without any guilt.

Jeremy gritted his teeth. “By you telling her about that, she won’t feel threatened. She won’t close herself off from her own family. She

won’t be haunted by her dark past anymore.”

“Why don’t you just tell her, hmm? Why blame me instead?” Sophia’s tone rose.

“She never looked at me. How can I talk to her? She is cold to children as cute as the twins. She is even heartless to pregnant woman. She always thinks badly of us and you are making her condition worse.

Suddenly, the sound of laughter came from behind. When Diana turned around, the twins widened their eyes. They automatically stopped running.

“Grandma?” Emily sighed with furrowed eyebrows. Slowly, she moved towards Louis, hiding behind him.

Diana quickly wiped away her tears. However, instead of saying hello, she just stood still. The two toddlers in front of her became even tenser.
