The Billionaire Twins Need A New Mommy! novel Chapter 232

Chapter 232: A lifetime of faith.

[To: Slater

SLATER, LEAVE MANAGER JAMES ALONE. MAKE HIM CRY AGAIN, AND FORGET ABOUT HAVING A LOVING SISTER-IN-LAW.]

Slater’s face slowly turned red as he read Lola’s message, his teeth grinding.

"That — that guy!" he exclaimed, jumping from his seat, making everyone in the reading jolt in surprise. All eyes slowly turned to him, stunned at his sudden outburst.

"First, he makes me look bad in front of my mother... and now, my sister-in-law," he scoffed, glaring at his phone. His brows twitched as he realized everyone was watching him.

Slowly, Slater lifted his eyes from his phone to meet theirs.

"..." He blinked, then, like an angel, flashed a charming smile. "I’m sorry." 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

And somehow, one smile from him was enough for everyone to forgive him.

[Summit Partners]

Atlas sat in the head seat of the conference room, listening intently to the presentation. But then, Allen approached and lowered his head, whispering into his ear.

"Sir, Miss Young sent a message, saying she’s already in the company."

Atlas’s brows rose slightly, and he glanced at his assistant. "Send her to my office."

"Sir, you still have a meeting with Travis Lancaster after this. Then another one..." Allen reminded him, making it clear these were meetings they couldn’t just cancel.

"Mhm," Atlas hummed lightly. "I didn’t say cancel my appointments. Send her to my office. She might want to nap."

"Yes, sir."

Allen quietly walked away, while Atlas refocused on the presentation.

"Where is she?" Allen muttered, scanning the lobby for Lola, but couldn’t spot her. "She’s usually so easy to spot in a crowd."

His eyes swept across the area until they landed on the couches. He narrowed them, catching someone reading, a magazine blocking her face.

"Is that her?" he wondered, studying the person’s outfit from head to toe. He noticed the boots tapping rhythmically on the floor.

Curious, Allen approached, stopping a few steps away. Just as he opened his mouth, the magazine was pulled down.

"What the hell is this magazine..." Lola trailed off, noticing Allen flinch the second she lowered it. "Oh?"

Allen opened and closed his mouth before offering a small smile. "I’m sorry for startling you." He lowered his head slightly, then turned on his heel.

I thought it was Miss Young...

"Oh, Assistant King?"

Allen froze at the familiar voice. Slowly, he turned around, eyes falling on the person seated on the couch.

"It’s really you!" Lola jumped from her seat. "Did he send you down here?"

Allen blinked once, then again. "Miss... Young?"

"What? You’ve forgotten about me already?"

"..." Allen pressed his lips together, swallowing hard. He had seen some pictures of her in costume, but this... this was on a whole other level. He hadn’t expected her to appear in such makeup.
