Emily turned to the sullen-looking old man who was sitting on the sofa near the stage. 

“Right. Should we give him the prize how?” 

Louis nodded swiftly. They both opened their backpacks. After taking out a piece of paper, they walked over to Rowan. 

However, two meters from the sofa, Sean stopped their steps. “You can’t cross the border.” 

Seeing Sean’s fierce look, Emily furrowed her eyebrows and hid 

behind her brother’s back. However, Louis wasn’t scared at all. He dared to look up with round eyes. 

“Why did we stop here? We wanted to give Grandpa a gift,” Louis asked loudly. 

Witnessing Louis’ courage, Rowan raised an eyebrow. His eyes then fell on the paper the toddler was carrying. Curious, he cleared his 

throat. Sean immediately made way. 

  1. Where is Your Father? 

“Good morning, Sir.” Louis took his sister’s hand and stepped forward. “Emily and I are very grateful that you gave us a scholarship. We are also happy we are invited to this cool event. Therefore, we 

want to give you a gift.” 

While occasionally glancing at Sean, Emily came out from behind Louis’ back. “We just bought colored pencils. So, we decided to give you our first drawing.” 

Emily handed Rowan the paper. Her tiny hands seemed to be shaking. 

Seeing that sweet face, Rowan suddenly thought of Kara. His hatred rose. He was reluctant to take the paper. 

Receiving such rejection, Emily’s furrowed brows deepened. She was confused and turned to Louis as if asking for help. 

“Sir, my sister gave you a gift. Why don’t you want to accept it? That’s rude,” Louis said, shaking his head in surprise. 

“You’re the ones who are rude. Who taught you to wear sunglasses when talking to an old man? This is indoors. You’ve made that 

mistake twice.” 

Louis’ cheeks puffed up. He never knew such a rule existed. However, after taking a deep breath, he took off his glasses. 

“Now, do you want to accept our gift?” 

Rowan was stunned. His eyes widened seeing a figure that looked so much like little Frank. “Your eyes are gray?” 

Louis blinked confusedly. “Yeah, Emily’s eyes are gray too.” 

Rowan’s breathing suddenly became heavy. A strange thought 

them to you?” 

Louis shook his head quickly so that his chubby cheeks swayed.” Mommy’s eyes are amber like copper. So, we think that we inherited the gene from our Daddy.” He misinterpreted Rowan’s question. 

“Where is your father?” 

Louis and Emily looked at each other. Their expressions changed drastically. After placing the paper in Rowan’s lap, Emily turned to leave. Louis puffed out his cheeks seeing his younger sister’s sadness. 

“Sir, we just wanted to give this gift to you. If you don’t like it, you can throw it away. Now excuse me. We have to practice our speech again.

After putting down the paper, Louis followed Emily. Rowan was 

amazed to see the response of the two toddlers. A moment later, his gaze fell onto the paper. 

A cool car was depicted there. Beside it, there were rockets and flying robots. A boy and a girl were holding hands. They were flanked by two women, and near them, there was a man in a suit with graying hair. 

The picture Emily made was similar. It’s just that there were five people playing in the flower garden filled with butterflies. A stuffed lemon sat on a pile of books and a man with only his back visible 

stood under a tree. 

“What are they playing?” Rowan sighed. 

From under his furrowed brows, Rowan watched the twins. Louis seemed to be comforting Emily by stroking her cheek. Then, with all his heart, he put sunglasses on her face. 

‘And why do they have the same eyes as Frank?’

After pondering for a moment, Rowan motioned for Sean to come closer. “Find out who their father is.” 

Rowan couldn’t focus during the event. Various scenarios flashed through his mind. Only when the twins finished giving speeches did his attention turned to Kara. The toddlers just ran to her She was sitting in the back row of chairs. 

“Mommy, how was our speech? Were we cool?” Louis asked with flushed cheeks. 

While adjusting his bow tie, Kara smiled. “You guys are very cool. Mommy’s little angels are really great.” 

“But I was silent for a moment. I forgot what to say because my heart was beating so fast,” Emily said with pouted lips. 

“Really? Mommy didn’t notice it. You two looked so relaxed. Many people took photos of you because you looked so stunning.” 

As her mother smoothed her hair, Emily smiled again. “Then, Mommy must show our recording to Grandma. Grandma will definitely be happy and proud.” 

Kara nodded. For the rest of the event, she let the twins sit on her lap while chattering happily. 

After the closing, many people wanted to take photos with the twins. Kara allowed them and watched from a limited distance. Suddenly, a voice greeted her. “I didn’t expect a woman like you to have such 

smart children.”” 

Kara turned her head. As expected, Rowan did come to her. She was sure that the old man knew everything. 

“Thank you, Sir. They are indeed my pride.” 

Observing Kara’s calmness in facing him, Rowan lowered an eyebrow.

However, before Rowan asked the question, Kara interrupted, “Mr. Harper, do you have a little time? I have something to talk to your about.” 

“Just talk about it,” Rowan replied as if he was indifferent. 

Kara stayed away from the crowd, but her eyes occasionally watched the twins. “Now that you know that I am a single mother, do you still believe that your grandson will like me?” 

Rowan didn’t reply. He wondered where Kara was driving the conversation. 

“Our relationship is not what you imagine, Sir. Your grandson is just taking advantage of this misunderstanding as an opportunity to escape from the arranged marriage. 

Rowan pursed his lips tighter. Her eyes narrowed at Kara’s honesty. Why do you say that? What do you want?” 

“I just want to be free, to live in peace with my children. I don’t want to be involved anymore in your family matters which I don’t understand at all. Therefore, I have a good offer for you.” Kara smiled 

reassuringly. 

Remembering that the girl was skilled at negotiating, Rowan didn’t immediately believe her. “You’re skilled at ensnaring rich men, aren’t you? The offer you’re about to make will definitely only benefit you.” 

Kara raised the corner of her lips as if she was in disdain. “I’m sure you’re confused about how to defeat Frank Harper. You can’t hurt him because he’s your own grandson. But without violence or threats, he won’t comply. In conclusion, you don’t have the right tools to control him.” 

Rowan held his breath. What Kara said was true, but he didn’t want to 

“Therefore, I would like to offer my help. I can get your grandson to 

obey you-do the arranged marriage.” 

Rowan’s eyes widened. Kara’s tactics were truly unexpected. 

“How much are you asking for?” he asked disdainfully. 

“Minus 720.000.” 

Rowan couldn’t hide his surprise. “Minus?” 

“Young Master forced me to agree to the deal. He sent that much money so that I couldn’t refuse. But didn’t need it. I tried several 

I times to transfer the money back, but the transaction always failed.” 

“You want to hand over the money to me?” Rowan asked doubtfully. 

Kara nodded. “Right. Like I said, I just need freedom. So….” 

Kara took a step forward and lowered her voice, “I will be happy to return Young Master to his fiancée as long as you do not harm my family and me.”
