Kara smiled at them. “You are so great, Little Angels. Not everyone has the courage to make difficult decisions.”
Emily spun around to face her. “We were inspired by Mommy. No matter what happens, we must remain good people.”
Louis nodded in support of his sister’s statement. “Now, since we have finished discussing, it is time to execute our plan. Welcome back, Mommy, Daddy.” He handed a bouquet of flowers to his
parents.
Not wanting to be left behind, Emily joined in holding the bouquet. Welcome back, Mommy, Daddy.” She gave them her best smile.
Frank and Kara laughed softly.
“Thank you, Kids.”
“Thank you, Little Angels.” Kara welcomed the flowers and hugged them. After that, Frank’s arms wrapped around the three of them.
“Let’s keep our palace safe,” the man whispered.
“Yes.”
As the twins bond with their parents, Susan and Philip exchanged glances. Their lips were curved, but their eyes gave off the same impression. Anxiety.
When lunch time arrived, the twins excitedly walked towards the
dining room with Frank and Kara. Susan was waiting for them at the
stairs.
“Grandma, are Uncle Jeremy and Mrs. Bell here yet?” Emily asked with sparkling eyes.

“Little Angels, do you remember? You guys also fought over wanting to sit near Daddy in the past. Your grandmother and aunt are the same. Moreover, they have been away from Daddy for a long time. Therefore, how about we give them a chance?”
The twins’ faces grew sour. However, after one quick breath, they muttered, “Okay.”
“Good. You are indeed smart kids.” Kara rubbed their cheeks as if to wipe away the anger from them.
However, as soon as the two toddlers climbed onto the chairs, their mouths opened wide again. The menu served was not only different from their requests, but also life-threatening. The dining table was full of seafood, including shrimp!
“Why are there these creatures on the table?” Louis exclaimed as if it was a terrible thing. “Where are our sandwiches and chicken salad?”
The servant on guard immediately lowered her head. Her fingers started to scratch each other. “S-sorry, Young Master. This is Madam’s request.”
“Impossible. Mommy can’t possibly ask for these foods,” Emily squeaked as she pressed herself closer to the chair. Her eyes fixed on a lobster with its eyes glaring at her.
“I asked for this menu,” Melanie admitted casually. “Is there any problem? Barbara likes seafood. This is the perfect dish to celeb our meeting today.”
Everyone glanced at Frank. If Melanie really loved Frank, how cou she forget about her son’s allergy?
Frank cleared his throat slightly. While sitting in a chair that he felt was secluded, he took a deep breath. “Then please start eating. Kara,

A second later, his index finger went up. His eyes fell on the servant.” Nora, please prepare the menu that Louis and Emily asked for. We look forward to it.”
Suddenly, Emily started whining. Tears flowed down her chubby cheeks.
“Darling, why are you crying? Be patient, your food will arrive soon.” Kara quickly wiped her tears away.
“Louis and I have planned a special lunch. But now, our plan has failed.”
“No, Honey.” Kara patted her daughter’s shoulder. “Nora will bring the menu you planned immediately.”
“But Louis and I had imagined all of us enjoying it together. We eat while listening to stories about Daddy and Mommy’s honeymoon.
But, but ….”
Susan and Kara looked at each other. After one breath, they both got up from their chairs. “Honey, your plan will not fail. Mommy and Grandma will do our magic. After our homemade sandwiches and salads come, let’s eat and talk together, hmm?”
Emily’s cries subsided. “Mommy will make it?”
“Yes. Just wait for a moment, okay?”
While Kara and Susan left the dining room, Melanie looked at the
twins with disgust.
“What’s wrong with your kids, Frank? They don’t want to eat with u Looks like you need to teach them well. Not everything they want ca be fulfilled. They must learn to respect others. Poor Barbara. She’s been working hard to think of ideas to improve this afternoon’s
menu.”

Louis’ eyes narrowed. “I think it’s not us who have to learn to respect the others, but you. You are old but you have no self-conscious,” he grumbled.
While Frank massaged her temples, Melanie stared with her mouth wide open. The spoon she had just touched was placed back on the plate.
“Did I hear correctly? You call me old and have no self-conscious?”
“Yes,” Barbara nodded as she cut the shrimp on her plate, “she had the nerve to call Mommy that.”
A sigh escaped Melanie’s mouth. She looked at Frank with a hurt expression. “Is our presence not welcomed here? Don’t tell me you don’t like eating with us either.”
“Stop making a big deal out of it, Mom. Louis and Emily are still young. They can’t control their emotion completely.”
“But this can’t be allowed, Frank. Precisely because they are still young, you have to educate them harder. Don’t let them grow up to be rebels who don’t know any manners.
“Yes,” Barbara continued lightly, “they are still young, but they already have the courage to fight back. I can’t imagine what they will they grow up.”

Louis snorted quickly. He was really sick of facing those two
“Emily, I want to monitor Mommy and Grandma in the kitchen. want to come?”
Emily nodded. Without wasting any time, they slid down from t chairs and ran out of the dining room.
“Look! They dare to just leave when we are advising them. You nee to evaluate the way you educate your children, Frank,” Melanie urge
Frank no longer answered. He was very tired. If he didn’t have patience, he would also have left the dining table.
