S31 80. The Test
“What don’t we understand?” Louis sneered before glancing at his
sister. “Emily, try to explain it to Mr. Moore so he doesn’t look down on us again.”
Emily nodded then straightened her back. Her breath was filled with confidence.
“Business is an organization carried out by individuals or groups by offering goods and
services to make a profit. For example, Louis offers apartments to his customers, while I
offer fashion products with high selling points.”
Victor tilted his head slightly. His eyes narrowed. However, before he had time to criticize,
Emily continued.
“Apart from that, I also provide services in the form of dress design., This year, I plan to
collaborate with several wedding organizers in terms of providing wedding dresses and
today, I was supposed to meet with two clients.”
“Me too! I was supposed to have a meeting with a client who w interested in investing in
my new apartment. He wanted to s present it. But since we’re here,” Louis narrowed his
eyes at V the meeting must be cancelled. You have to take responsibility come across lost
a client, Mr. Moore.”
Victor didn’t react. He just blinked slowly, waiting until the seriousness faded from the
twins’ faces. However, it never went a
“Do you know how many clients we lost due to your father’s behavi
The twins’ eyebrows pressed together against their foreheads.” Because of Sophia’s
behavior, you mean?”
Victor flinched slightly, not expecting the boy in front of him to dare to argue. Before he
could respond, Louis took a deep breath.
“I’m surprised by parents who spoil their children. Their children are clearly at fault, but
they instead blame other people.”
“They should learn from Mommy. If we are wrong, Mommy will definitely reprimand us.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThen Mommy will punish us so that we realize that what we did was not good. Why don’t
you do that, Mr. Moore?” Emily stretched her voice so it sounded pitiful.
“I think because he is just like Isabela’s father, Emily. Mister Hall used to defend his
daughter. But after he realized, he made the decision to take care of her. That’s better
than blaming other people.”
Victor’s jaw throbbed a little. His eyes dimmed, his voice dropped drastically. “You dare
insult me?”
“We’re not being sarcastic, but we regret it. We should be working together, Mr. Moore, not
enemies.”
Emily nodded in support of Louis’ words. “Yeah, why don’t we just work together, Mr.
Moore?”
Victor’s furrowed brows changed meaning. “Our fields are diffe Are you even offering
cooperation?”
“We can collabolate,” Louis said firmly.
“Collaborate, Louis,” Emily placed a hand next to her lips.
Louis blinked innocently. “Yes, that’s what I mean. Your company famous for its cruise
ships, while I’m good at building design. We d design hotels, restaurants, or amusement
parks with a cruise sl concept. People who are afraid or too busy to explore the sea will
definitely be happy.”
“Or, your company can collaborate with me.” Emily raised one ha
like a student in class. “Many people dream of having a wedding on a cruise ship. If you
provide a choice of bridal outfits yourself, clients will definitely find it more practical. It will
be a fun project.”
Victor was stunned for a while. The purpose of sitting opposite the two toddlers was to
make them feel pressured. However, why did they even take advantage of that moment to
talk about promising business opportunities?
Suddenly, Victor snorted displeasedly. He realized that he could no longer hide his fangs.
“Your condition is critical, but you can still relax and think about profits?” His tone was
intimidating.
The twins blinked. “Critical?”
Seeing the confused expressions of the two toddlers, Victor finally smiled. “Okay, let’s stop
wasting time.”
He leaned forward until his elbows reached the edge of the wooden armrest. “If you
weren’t ordinary kids, you would understand what my true purpose was.”
The twins glanced at each other. “Yeah, you arrested us so you could threaten Daddy.”
Victor nodded. “And you guys aren’t scared?”
Louis shook his head without thinking. The curve of Victor’s lips
suddenly turned into a grin.
“Good. Then let’s prove it.” He took out his phone and called someone. Speaker mode was
activated. “Hello, Frank Harper.”
A welcoming snort sounded. “Where are my children?”
Recognizing that voice, the twins’ eyes widened. Their mouths were wide open. “Daddy?”
Unexpectedly, the two toddlers got out of the chair and leaned on their enemy’s knees.
Their chins almost touched Victor’s phone.
“Daddy, where are you? Why did you take so long to pick us up? Louis and I are bored
here.”
“Yeah, Mr. Moore only made us sit in silence. We didn’t want our time
to be wasted, so we asked him to talk about cooperation. But, he didn’t seem interested.”
Not only Victor, but Turner, who had been standing near the door, sighed in disbelief. How
big were those kids’ guts to dare to “hijack” Victor Moore’s phone?
“Kids?” Frank sounded incredulous. “You guys okay?”
“Yeah, we’re just a little hungry. It’ll be lunch time soon. No-time for dessert. Come pick us
up, Daddy, so we can have lunch together.”
Before the two toddlers could reveal their location, Victor turned off the speaker and put
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe phone to his ear. At that moment, Frank said, ” Daddy will pick you up soon. Can you
tell me where you are now?”
Meanwhile, the twins’ faces changed. “Mr. Moore, we haven’t finishe talking to Daddy yet.
Why are you pulling out your phone? That’s ru
“It’s you who are being rude. I was talking to your father, but you interrupted. Now go
back to your seats.”
The twins made annoyed faces. However, their legs moved backwards towards the chair.
“So, you want to pick up your kids?” Victor asked in a teasing tone
“No need to make small talk. Just say what you want!”
With his gaze fixed on the twins, Victor raised the corners of his lips. They are smart and
sweet children. At first, I intended to threaten you with their lives. But after learning about
their rare qualities, I think
there is a more profitable option.”
The twins fell silent. Their eyes widened slightly and their lips pursed. Victor was amused
by the reaction. “Are you ready to hear your fate, Kids?”
“Your business is with me. Why do you involve those innocent children?” shouted the voice
that penetrated the speaker.
Meanwhile, Louis blinked stiffly. “Are you going to throw us into the sea and make us shark
food?” His voice was tense.
Victor shook his head. “There are many people who hope to have children but can’t. They
are willing to pay whatever it takes to have children, especially good quality ones like
you.”
“Isn’t that child trafficking? You could get into trouble if you sell us, Mr. Moore,” Emily
scolded in a sweet voice.
“And even if you sell us, we will rebel and find our own way home. We are smart kids.”
Victor shook his head faintly. “No, if I brainwash you. You won’t rebel if you don’t
remember your biological parents. You will consider the person who bought you to be your
own parent.”
