Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father by Pixie

S2 82. Not a Perfect Man

Barbara nodded without suspicion. “Of course. Let’s watch the rest.”

She didn’t realize that Frank and Kara were secretly smiling. After Louis played the video,

she placed the tablet on the edge of the table so they could watch it together.

“Oh, Louis? You were actually peeking at us from the bushes?” Barbara sighed as she saw

Louis appear with leaves on his head in the animation. That was the moment after Melanie

criticized Philip.

“Yeah, I was playing spy at the time.” Louis shrugged his shoulders with an innocent look.

Shaking her head in disbelief, Barbara kept watching. She liked to review their fun at the

beach. She was sad when she saw the image of her mother blaming everyone for her

decision to follow Paul. And, she was touched to know how upset everyone was when she

was

gone.

After various emotions passed through her chest, Barbara finally fell into confusion. “Wait.

When was the last time you edited this animation?” She paused the video.

Louis and Emily did their best to hold back their smiles. “Yesterday.”

“Then why is there a moment when we watch animation in the back yard?”

“Because we expected it.”

“Yes, we arranged it. Instead of wondering, how about you keep watching?”

With her eyebrows carved in astonishment, Barbara played the animation again. A

moment later, she squinted her eyes, sighing, ”

Isn’t that Philip?”

“Yes,” Louis answered firmly.

“Why is he peering through the door? And why is he dressed like that? ” she asked

amused.

However, when Philip stood in front of her, strange turmoil erupted. Even though it’s just

an animation, the ring depicted in the box in his

hand looked valuable.

“Philip is planning to propose to me?” Barbara muttered

spontaneously. When “will you marry me?” appeared on the screen, a quick sigh was no

longer inevitable.

“Barbara.”

The girl turned to the voice. At the entrance to the dining room, Philip was standing in the

exact same tuxedo as in the animation. In his hand, the bouquet of roses seemed to be

starting to turn black.

“Gosh, you’re so cute,” she sighed between laughter full of emotion.

“You think so?” Philip raised an eyebrow and locked his smile. He liked the bright sparks in

Barbara’s eyes.

“Yeah, it seems like you just came out of the screen.” Barbara point

at the tablet with her chin.

Philip’s lips turned flat. “That was the concept last night.”

As he got closer to Barbara, Emily and Louis moved to Frank and

Kara’s side.

“Sorry, the roses are starting to wilt,” Philip said as he handed over the bouquet with one

knee placed on the floor.

Barbara bit her lip, holding back her excitement. “It’s okay. That’s the proof that they’re

real.”

“Just like my love for you. It’s genuine. It’s real. But I will make sure that our love blossoms

as long as we still breathe, and it will not wither even if death separates us.”

Philip rubbed her face after she kissed the flowers. Then, his hand. moved tracing her

neck, her shoulder, her arm… until he found her slender fingers.

“Barbara Harris,” Philip took a deep breath and then took out a box.

“I’m so grateful that you came into my life. Every second I spend with you feels eternal. I

don’t want it to end. I don’t want time to quickly pass by. Therefore,” Philip opened the

box, “will you fill my every day?”

Barbara let out a faint breath. Her heart had never felt so complete.

“Are you sure you want to accept all my weaknesses? I’m not the girl of your dreams. I

don’t have any abilities, you know?”

Philip smiled faintly. Even though many eyes were on him, his focus was only on Barbara.

“I’m not a perfect person either. There are many things I can’t do, but will try.”

While Barbara was stunned, Philip raised the corners of his lips. “In the past, I thought

someone with weaknesses we could accept was much better than someone with strengths

we admired. I never thought I would meet someone who could fulfill both.”

After one long breath, Philip stroked her ring finger. “So, Miss Barbara Harris, will you

accept this mediocre man as your husband?”

“You are not a mediocre man, Philip. You are more than what I need.”

Emily could no longer contain her excitement. She clapped her hands. while jumping up

and down. “Does it mean yes, Auntie?”

Barbara smiled and nodded. “Yes. I want to spend the rest of my life.

with Philip.”

In an instant, the audience cheered, Jeremy and Susan finally come out of hiding.

“That’s very good, Philip. Very brave, Jeremy praised, but seemed teasing.

While laughing, Philip took the ring out of the box. The gem was not big, just like a speck

of star, but its shine hypnotized Barbara.

“This is the most beautiful jewelry I’ve ever gotten. Thank you, Phil,” she whispered as

soon as he finished putting the ring on her finger.

Philip stood up and put his arm around Barbara’s waist. “And this is the most beautiful

jewelry I’ve ever gotten.” He kissed her forehead.

The twins’ voices shook the air even more.

“Woohoo! Barbara accepted Philip’s proposal. They will get married soon!”

“Philip and Barbara will live happily ever after, just like Mommy and Daddy.”

A second later, the two toddlers ran to hug the couple.

“Congratulations, Uncle, Auntie. We are happy that you will live together.”

Everyone widened their eyes at Emily’s words. “Young Lady, did your just call me Uncle?”

Emily nodded cutely. “Is it wrong?”

“Emily wasn’t wrong,” Louis said loudly. “If Philip marries Auntie, he will become our uncle.

Why change it later when it’s certain now?”

A second later, he spread his arms as wide as possible and then caught Philip. “Uncle!”

As everyone laughed, Philip bent his knee, embracing the twins. ” Thank you, Young

Master and Young Lady. It’s an honor to be your uncle.”

When Philip had let go of the hug, Susan greeted him. ” Congratulations, Philip. You two

make a great couple.”

“Thank you, Mrs. Martin.”

After Susan, it was Kara’s turn to congratulate. “Congratulations, Philip. Your wait is finally

over. Take better care of Barbara, hmm? And don’t hesitate to ask for our help with

organizing the wedding later.”

Philip nodded to Kara. “Thank you.”

Then, while Kara put her arm around Barbara, Frank stepped forward and patted Philip on

the shoulder.

“I really didn’t expect you to be my brother-in-law. Life is full of surprises, hmm?” While

laughing, he embraced Philip.

Philip chuckled. “I didn’t expect it either, Sir. I hope I don’t get fired because I married

your sister.”

Frank snorted in disbelief. “You want to keep your job?” He looked at Philip with narrowed

eyes.

Philip nodded. “I love that job too much.”

“He wants to follow me, Frank,” Jeremy said. “Even though there has been a shift in

status, we remain loyal to our position.”

Frank let out a small laugh. After a brief pause, he looked at Philip and Barbara alternately.

“So, when do you think you want to hold your wedding?”

Barbara glanced at Philip. The man smiled then put his arm around her waist.
