Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father

65. Kara’s Tears

Frank’s jaw throbbed. He had felt happy since he could see Kara again, have lunch together, and even hug her. But now, that feeling

was gone.

“Can’t you let me love you?” he asked quietly.

“No.” Kara shook her head quickly. “I don’t want to be loved by a man who will marry another woman. Marriage is sacred, Sir. You must not smear it with ego.”

“Should I cancel the wedding?”

-Kara sighed in resignation. Their debate seemed to revolve around the same circle. They would never find a way out until one of them stopped.

“Well then,” Kara sighed bitterly, “I will never appear before you again.”

Frank grew more somber. However, before he could speak, Kara interrupted, “We’ve discussed this before, Sir. Haven’t you realized yet? You don’t really love me. You only see me as a tool to escape your arranged marriage.”

“That’s not true,” Frank said in a low voice.

“That’s the truth. You are so perfect and you have everything.

Someone like you shouldn’t want a poor girl like me. I can’t give you anything.”

Frank shook his head, but Kara kept talking. “And even if you did love me, we would never be together. Do you remember what you did to me? How could I possibly love a man as vile as you?”

Frank didn’t move. His mouth pressed tightly. He had tightness in his chest, as if there were thorns entangling him.

Frank pursed his lips. That was his usual way of dealing with problems, different from his grandfather who liked cruel methods.

“What about Ben?”

Jeremy whispered, “He was a bit surprised when he found out you agreed to work with him. He’s signed a contract and vowed never to come near Kara again.”

Frank nodded slightly. “Then, what about the last ship we sunk? Have they found any treasure or are they starting to rust?”

Jeremy took a sip of his coffee before starting to explain. “They are still fighting for the prototype with private funds. Several errors have been found. They are analyzing them now. They are confident that, once the errors are corrected, your dream of realizing an emission- free car will be realized.”

“Do you think their ship can sail again?” Frank asked, raising an

eyebrow.

Jeremy blinked. “Yes, Sir. They are the best in their field. I think next month, they will definitely submit a proposal to join the Savior ag

Frank pursed his lips. No matter how intimidating a leader he w none of his staff were willing to leave his company. The prosper obtained from Savior would not be found in other companies.

Yes, except for secretaries. Frank had deliberately made things. difficult for them. He didn’t like women taking care of his schedule. They tend to be slow, noisy, and make him uncomfortable.

Only Kara was able to change that view. However, why did the woman insist on leaving his side?

“Jeremy….”

“That girl is Kara.!”

“Is that why you reentiteed ne several times not to be rude to her?”

Jererny took a deep breath. There was a small change in his forehead. “Yes, Sir. Ionporthead to tell you that.”

‘But I refused,’ Frank continued ima thin, hoarse voice. His face

looked heavy.

“You know what? Since the firsantine Issaw her in the office, I had a feeling that she was that girl. But denied it.”

Frank dropped his gaze to the rim of the cup. His finger begal the edge of the ceramic slowly.

“And now, your fears have come true?” Jeremy concluded with a flat expression.

Frank smiled sadly. “You want to tease me, hmm?”

Jeremy shook his head firmly. “No, Sir. No one is perfect. It’s normal for you to make mistakes.”

Frank was stunned. He realized that all this time, he had been too pushy, both towards others and himself.

“Do you think Kara really hates me?”

Jeremy’s brows began to furrow. In fact, it wasn’t just Frank who changed because of Kara’s presence, but himself too. He became more often trapped in dilemmas.

“I think so, Sir.” That was the safest answer.

“Do I have a chance to win her heart?”

Jeremy blinked. He knew that Frank’s heart must be so confus he couldn’t think straight. That’s why he was called, to consult.

“According to my observations, Kara Martin was an obedient and child. She doesn’t want to disappoint her parent. It’s never for he go against their blessing.”

“You’re telling me to ask Grandpa’s blessing?” Frank was a little confused.

Jeremy nodded innocently. “That’s the only way Miss Martin will open her heart for you, Sir.”
