The Billionaire Twins Need A New Mommy! novel Chapter 61

Chapter 61: VVIP treatment

[Summit Partners: Chairman’s Office]

"See ya!"

The twins beamed, kneeling on the couch with the phone between them. Their mouths were stretched wide, thinking Lola might agree to give them a sibling if they just asked.

"Do you think Mommy feels better now that she knows we want a baby sibling?" Chacha wondered, snapping her round eyes at Second.

Second pondered as he rubbed his little chin. "Of course! Many children don’t want a sibling, but we do because we’re good kids!"

"Right, Father Sir?" Second added, and they turned to the man seated behind the desk.

Atlas looked up at the duo on the couch, who had barely done any work just because Lola wouldn’t do much today. That was what she said, after all.

"Mhm," he hummed. "You’re good kids."

"Hehe." Second and Chacha grinned at each other while their father shook his head mildly. But as he resumed his work, he added, "You can face the wall later once Allen comes."

Hearing that, the twins turned back to him with twinkling eyes. "Yeey!"

Hours later...

After visiting the cemetery, Lola dropped by the restaurant where Cedrick was working. As expected, he wasn’t there yet. If it were years ago, she would’ve known where he was, but the guy kept hopping from one gig to another.

So, after spending a short while waiting for him, she decided to give him another day. If she still heard no word, she’d just ambush him.

With that, time moved quickly until she reached home to fix herself.

Had she known her father would dare speak about her deceased child, she would’ve put extra effort into her earlier look to give him an instant heart attack. A lesson learned.

"Huh?" Lola’s nose scrunched up as she put on a dress, only to stop when a realization dawned on her. "Why am I dressing up? It’s just dinner."

Dinner, yes. But had she forgotten that all the time they had eaten outside, Lola had looked like she had used some sort of satanic ritual to bag Atlas?

"My dignity’s at stake here," she told herself, checking other clothes to fit the occasion. "I need to redeem it. That’s definitely the reason, and not because I want to look pretty."

It wasn’t like she still had feelings for her childhood crush. Feeding herself the idea that this was about redeeming her lost dignity, Lola spent extra time just trying out what to wear. Normally, it wouldn’t take her long to choose, but somehow, her clothes looked either too formal, too casual, too glamorous, or too simple.

In the end, she settled on her safest bet.

A black short suit jacket that barely reached her waist and a pair of black wide-leg slacks, paired with black heels.

It was just dinner, but for once, she didn’t want their table to be a spectacle in a place like Harmony Feast.

Looking at herself in the mirror, Lola nodded.

"Just another earring," she commented, quickly picking up an earring to complete her look.

It wasn’t too simple, nor was it too grand. Just good enough to blend in with others.

She smiled, chuckling as she responded, [See you] with a kiss emoji at the end.
