19. Protecting My Family
A moment later, a piece of jelly was thrown out of Louis’ mouth. After a few coughs, his
breathing gradually returned to normal.
“It’s okay, Buddy. You’re alright.” Frank calmly gave him a drink. Everyone was frozen.
“Louis choked? Not because of poison?” Kara muttered, standing still behind Frank. Her
hand was holding a knife. She was ready to punch a hole in Louis’ trachea if he couldn’t
breathe.
“I thought you already knew. You even took the small knife,” Frank answered lightly.
Blinking in confusion, Kara put down the knife and bent down to examine Louis. She didn’t
care if Frank was under her chin.
“Honey, are you okay?” She wiped the tears from his son’s chubby
cheeks.
After taking a deep breath, Louis nodded. “That’s why we shouldn’t talk while eating. It
seemed like there were about three nata de coco. fighting to get into my throat. I couldn’t
breathe.”
Holding her chest, Susan let out a sigh of relief. “Louis, you made us
worry.”
Meanwhile, Emily furrowed her brows and leaned back in her chair. Her anxiety had been
replaced by curiosity. “How did you know that it was only Mommy’s pudding that was
poisonous?”
“Louis was the one who knew about this evil plan. He overheard my grandfather telling
Sean to poison Kara.”
Frank’s confession stunned everyone. None of them dared to
comment, apart from Susan. “Your grandfather would have the heart

Frank stood up and looked at Kara guiltily. “He doesn’t approve of our relationship.”
Susan was lost for words. She now understood what dilemma Kara was trapped in.

finally said his name again. However, Frank became even more tormented. The little girl
spoke as if she wanted to get away from him.
“No, Emily,” he answered softly. “You have to stay with me. That way, I can protect you
guys.”
Emily didn’t reply. She just blinked as if she didn’t care. In fact, she was secretly
contemplating.
Meanwhile, Frank turned to his son. “Louis, I am so proud of you. I actually planned a trap
for that servant, but apparently, you have your own way of fighting her. You are so great!”
Receiving unexpected praise, Louis chuckled. “I am a man. I have to be able to protect my
family.”
“Yes, you’re right. But, from now on, you don’t have to face it all alo You have me who you
can rely on whenever you want. Understan
Louis smiled brightly and nodded shyly. Frank ruffled his hair gently Seeing the interaction
between father and son, everyone was moved. Kara smiled, while Susan let out a soft
sigh.
Only Emily was secretly jealous. Previously, she was in that position. But now, why was
she the one who was far from Frank Harper?
“Sir
Jeremy suddenly returned with a basket of flowers. Seeing that thing, everyone wondered.

“How is the servant?” Frank inquired swiftly.
“She has been taken to pick up her family. They will move to another city tonight.”
“Then, what is that?” Frank’s eyes narrowed.
Jeremy spontaneously glanced at Kara. “Coincidentally, this package has just arrived.” He
picked out a gold card among the flowers and handed it to Frank.
As soon as he received it, Frank sighed in disbelief. Laughing faintly, he turned the card
towards Kara. “Finnic invites us to his wedding. It’s definitely a challenge.”
Kara stunned. She examined the invitation card carefully. Realizing the difference in design
from the one she received before, she snorted sarcastically. “The invitation he sent me
turned out to be an insult.”
Instantly, Susan’s expression became serious. The annoyance in her heart began to grow.
“Do you guys intend to attend?” she asked, raising an eyebrow.
“I think Mommy should come with Young Master Harper,” Louis suggested excitedly.
“Mommy has to show that arrogant ma Mommy is a good person. The proof is that Young
Master Harpe wants to marry Mommy.”
Everyone widened their eyes at the toddler’s words, except Emily was as if she already
knew what her twin brother was thinking.
“But, is it safe? What if someone has evil intentions towards Mommy? “Emily muttered
hesitantly.
“Frank Harper promised to protect Mommy. That means Mommy is safe.”

Emily’s lips immediately pursed. She looked doubtful. Seeing that, Kara let out a faint sigh.
“I think we shouldn’t go. Emily has just recovered. She still needs me. Besides, it’s their
birthday soon.”
Emily blinked at the decision. Secretly, guilt rose in her heart. “I don’t mind if Mommy
goes to the event. It’s just that Mommy has to be
careful.”
Kara raised her eyebrows again. “Are you sure, Little Bee? This event is held on a cruise
ship. Invited guests must stay two nights.”
Puffing out her cheeks, Emily glanced at Frank. “Are you sure you can look after Mommy?
Do you promise not to leave her again or take her away from us?”
Frank was stung by the other meaning of the question. Smiling wryly, he nodded. “I
promise, Princess. I will never leave you again.”
“Then go. Show Finnic that his judgment is wrong. Mommy is the coolest and kindest
woman on earth. You two have to perform better than everyone else on that ship.”

reassuringly.
Receiving that much support, Frank took Kara’s hand. “Are you willing to attend your ex’s
party with me?”
After hesitating for a moment, Kara finally took a deep breath.”
Well…. I think it’s time for me to clear my name. I’m not the woman they think I am.”

The only remaining vase ended up hitting the wall. The shards scattered, falling onto other

“Aargh! Why doesn’t any media want to side with me? I’m Isabela Hail! Don’t they all
know how great my family is? How dare they refuse my clarification?”
Vidi, who was standing next to Isabela’s sofa, lowered his head even deeper. His body
trembled to hold back the crazy beating heart.
“S-sorry, Miss Hall. But, our opponent is Frank Harper. The media doesn’t dare to take
risks. If they publish our clarification, Frank could just destroy them.”
“I don’t care about it! My parents soon will arrive. If Frank hadn’t crushed the media, I
would have been crushed by my parents!” Isabela screamed at the top of her voice. Her
hands gripped the sofa tighter. She no longer cared about her messy make-up and hair.
“Then,” the manager swallowed hard, “what should we do, Miss Hall?”
Gritting her teeth, Isabela glared at Vidi. Suddenly, she laughed. “My future husband…. He
thinks his life will be happy after exposing my disgrace?”
With shaking shoulders, she growled. “Just wait and see! I’ll drag him down with me. I can
assure you this!”
Vidi didn’t dare to answer. He bit his lip, glancing here and ther Perhaps there was a clue
about what he should do next.
“Call them!” Isabela suddenly gave an answer. The man in the ha stared wide eyed.
“Who should I call? The media?”
