S31 73. Barbara in Danger

A few moments passed. While waiting for Sean, Philip kept contacting Barbara. The twins were also worried when they saw him.

his back.

Philip lowered the phone from his ear. Seeing the wrinkles on the toddlers’ eyebrows, he stopped in his uneasy moves.

“Could it be that the enemy launched an attack here? But we’re still too young,” Emily pursed her lips.

“How could they have the heart to hurt us? We are cute and sweet children. They must be really cruel.” Louis nodded with narrowed eyes.

“So now, shall we go straight home? Not to the office?” Emily looked up waiting for an answer.

Philip pondered for a moment. “Sorry, Louis, Emily. I have other things to do. The one who will escort you home later is Sean.”

Instead of being disappointed, the twins were beaming.

“Sean will pick us up?”
