S31 102. Wrong Way
Seeing Frank''s phone screen, Kara also widened her eyes. “Isn''t it alreadyte there?”
Louis blinked while chewing his food. “Who''s calling, Mommy?"
“Grandma Diana,” Frank said before picking up the phone. “Hello?”
“Frank!”
Frank spontaneously took the phone away from his ear. “What''s wrong, Grandma? Why are you shouting like that?”
“Why didn’t you guys tell me anything? No wonder | couldn''t sleep
these two days. | was learning to use the inte earlier. Suddenly, articles about you appeared.”
“Calm down, Grandma. Don’t panic yet. Everything is under control. Kids are fine. They are eating well right now.”
“Where are they?”
Frank turned on speaker mode. “Kids, Grandma wants to tau.”
Louis quickly swallowed the food in his mouth. “Grandma!”
Emily, who was still chewing, could only wave her hand.
“Louis, how are you, Darling? Are you okay?”
“I''m fine, Grandma. Don''t worry. I''m very healthy. How are you, Grandma? You are healthy too, right?”
“Yes, I''m fine. Just not getting enough sleep. Are you sure you''re fine? You''re not lying, right?”
Louis chuckled. “I''m an honest kid, Grandma. How could I lie to you?”
“Thank goodness you''re okay. Where is Emily?”
The little girl''s smile brightened. “I''m here, Grandma.” She raised one hand, even though Diana didn''t see.
“How are you, Emily? Are you okay too?"
“Yeah,” Emily nodded cutely. Her right hand poked the pudding with a spoon. “I was afraid that Mrs. Moore would invade my
dreams. Luckily, she didn’te. Daddy had strengthened his troops around the gate. She definitely wouldn''t daree any
closer.”

Diana sighed in relief. “Oh, my poor great-grandchildren. I''m grateful that you''re okay. Next time, please don''t hide anything from
me. Even though I''m old, I can still fight criminals.”
Suddenly, the twins giggled.
“I can imagine Grandmaing with a horse.”
“Then the horse kicked our enemies one by one.”
While the two toddlers yed with their imaginations, Kara spoke up. Grandma, since you already know the condition of the
twins lease don''t get carried away anymore.”
“Kara is right. Don’t sleepte again, Grandma.”
“If you want me to sleep regrly, don''t y secret games with anymore. Understand? I''m sensitive. If someone in my family is
having problems, | can feel it.”
Frank and Kara exchanged nces. The curves of their lips were both small and full of meaning.
“Okay, Grandma. Forgive us. Now go to sleep. It''s already night there, right?”
“I still wanted to chat with you. You told me to sleep?” Diana

grumbled.
Emily lowered her eyebrows at that, “Grandma, don’t be sad. We can talk again tomorrow.”
“Yes, wait for us toe home from school or finish work.” Louis nodded before returning to eating the pudding.
“Or next time, let''s just make a video call. We can see Grandma''s face and Grandma can see ours. You won''t miss us so much.”
Emily shook her head slightly.
Diana''sughter sounded light. “My great-grandchildren are really sweet. | can’t wait to see you again. It feels like my hands are
itching to pinch your cheeks.”
Emily chuckled. Meanwhile, Louis was swallowing his pudding again.
“Be patient, Grandma. Wait another two months. We''ll meet at Auntie’s wedding.” Louis straightened his index and middle finger.
At that moment, Eva entered the dining room with Mrs. Connor. Her gestures were rxed, as if she hadn''t been crying or
fighting. Her eyes were no longer red. Only the lids were slightly swollen.
When the phone conversation ended, Eva lightly asked, “Y
mentioned a wedding several times. Whose wedding party
mean? You seem very enthusiastic.
Ava nced slightly. Not wanting to interfere, she focused on the food on her te.
“Barbara and Philip''s wedding,” Kara answered, without further ado.
Eva''s mouth rounded. “Since you invited Ava, can |e along? | can act as Ava’''spanion. Without me, you can be sure she
wille. alone. She has never had a boyfriend or been close to any man.”
Everyone blinked. Only Jeremy showed a different expression. He

was more interested in facts about Ava’s romantic history than Eva''s
bad attitude.
“The bride and groom are not here. | don’t think it would be
appropriate if we invited you. However, | can tell them to add your name to the list of invited guests.” Kara nodded politely.
Eva''s eyes lit up. “Really? Wow, thank you very much, Mrs. Harper. That''s really generous of you.”
Kara could only smile awkwardly, while Frank looked down,
scratching his temple. In his heart, he hoped that Eva would not take advantage of his wife''s kindness.
Unfortunately, after leaving Jeremy''s residence, Eva started to think about that cunning thought.
“If Ava can take advantage of them, then so can I,” she smiled crookedly. “I won''t let the Harper family be unfair. They consider
Aval family, so they should consider me part of them too.”
A secondter, the curve of her lips turned down. Her eyes shed
beneath the high arch of her eyebrows.
“They think they can set Ava up with Mr. Filthy Rich?” Folding arms, she snorted lightly. “| won''t let it happen. Ava can''t liv

“Sir,” she leaned forward in her seat, “why are we going this way?”
“There was an ident that way, Miss. The road is blocked, so we have to go around.”
Eva furrowed her brows and blinked. “What ident?”

“There have been frequent identstely. Passengers like to protest whenever their journey is hampered. | hope you don''t
mind me taking another route. | want you to arrive at your destination as quickly as possible by avoiding traffic jams.”
Eva checked her phone. The road to her house was quite busy, but there were no ident notifications
“This driver is lying?"
Eva''s heart instantly rose to her throat. She tried to swallow, but failed. When the driver took a turn that took her further away
from home, cold sweat began to pour out.
“Sir, can we go back to where we were? | left my wallet. It''s important.”
This time, the driver no longer answered. Instead, he pressed the gas pedal deeper. Eva''s heartbeat became increasingly
erratic.
“If we can’t turn around, I''ll just get off here. The money in my bag is only enough to pay for getting here.”
The silence grew tenser. Unable to suppress her confusion, Eva picked up her phone again. However, before she determined ho
could help her, their taxi pulled over. With unusual speed iver snatched her phone.
“Don''t!”
The next second, Eva froze. Her gaze met the driver''s. She just realized that there was a long cut scar on his face.
“Don''t fight if you don’t want to get hurt.”
Eva''s chin rose and fell, trying to break the stiffness. However, her whole body seemed to be frozen. She couldn''t fight the fear.
As a result, she burst into tears.
“Please don’t hurt me. You can take all my stuff, but I still want to live.

Feeling ufortable, the driver hissed. He took out a small
injection and stuck the needle in Eva''s thigh. The girl groaned. A
momentter, her voice weakened. After a few blinks, she fell asleep.
