Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father novel Chapter 22

  1. Don’t Go

Kara had been sitting in front of the laptop for several hours,

collecting job vacancy information. However, none of them matched her qualifications.

Her status as a single parent of two children was clearly not an

advantage, let alone the bad note that Finnic deliberately left on her

resume.

“Should I contact Ben Wilson? I can volunteer to be a waiter at his restaurant. Maybe, he would accept me for the sake of the twins.”

After a blink, Kara looked for Ben’s business card in her bag. But then, she remembered. She tucked the card in a notebook on her desk.

“Should I go get it? My things are still there too.”

Kara crossed her arms and tapped her elbow with her pen. As far as she remembered, Frank had a schedule outside the office.

“Okay. I just need to do it before Frank gets back to the office.” She rushed over.

Arriving on the 10th floor of the Savior Group Building, Kara let out a sigh of relief. There were no guards there. Thinking that Frank wasn’t there either, she walked casually towards her “former” desk.

“Thank God, everything is still here.”

As Kara started packing her stuff, a crash came from the CEO room. Kara spontaneously turned around. “Who’s that? Is it a thief?”

Feeling anxious, Kara went to check. As soon as she entered the room, she gasped. A secret door had opened. Frank was sitting on the floor. Fragments of flower vase were scattered nearby.

“Jeez, what happened, Sir?” Kara hurriedly approached Frank. She forgot her promise not to appear again.

‘What are you doing here?’

Frank wanted to ask it, but his brain was too busy compromising with

his lungs. His hands kept holding his neck, while he had short breath. Tears had flowed without him realizing it.

“Sir?” Kara shook his shoulder.

Suddenly, Frank closed his eyes. The furrows in his brows deepened and his breathing quickened.

Afraid she was running out of time, Kara checked Frank’s neck. Apparently, his skin was red and swollen, just like what had happened to Emily when she first ate shrimp.

“It’s allergies! You are in anaphylactic shock!”

Kara stood up to study the situation. An almost empty food box lay on the table. The flower vases that usually decorate the corners of the shelf had been scattered. It must have fallen when Frank tried to

reach the lever behind it.

“You keep an auto injector in that room?” Kara asked matter-of-factly.

Frank nodded. He had no other choice except for letting her know. Only that girl could save him.

The small room resembled a bedroom. Kara opened all the drawers until she finlly found a tube labeled epinephrine.

“Come here, Sir.”

Kara helped Frank lean against the shelf. Frank’s face was ashen. Every bead of sweat on his forehead represented pain. Before his breathing completely stopped, Kara stuck the auto injector into Frank’s thigh.

Right at that moment, Frank groaned in despair. He grabbed Kara’s arm so tightly. It’s not just the pain that scared him, but also the fears of the past.

“Sir?” Kara grimaced. She felt like Frank could crush her bones.

Luckily, his strength slowly decreased. When Kara pulled out the injector, Frank instead laid his head on her shoulder. Instantly, a strange feeling crept in her heart.

“Mr. Harper?” She called awkwardly.

Frank was still panting, but not as badly as before. His eyes were closed. He only answered in a whisper, “Please don’t go.”

Kara took a deep breath. From four years ago until yesterday, Frank always wanted her to leave. But now, he had changed his mind?

Blinking uncertainly, Kara studied Frank. That’s the father of her children. It was the first time she found that face so painful. She should be happy. Her revenge was a little avenged. However, why did her heart feel pity?

“Sir, I have to go. I’m no longer your employee.”

As Kara was about to get up, Frank gripped her elbow. His bre

a little ragged. “Please…, stay here.”
