The Twin of the Cold Master
Responsibilities

A few minutes later, no more crying could be heard. Kenny and Kevin seemed to have calmed down. Kendrick loosened her arms and then wiped the twins' tears in turn.

"Here you don't cry anymore."

Kendrick's answer made the two of them smile wide.

"Yey! Then Daddy's going back to Mississippi, right? Poor Mommy. Mommy works day and night." Striking, Kevin skipped a little without taking his eyes off his Daddy.

"Yes, Dad, let's go back to Mississippi now, let's let people know we're not illegitimate." Kenny chimed.

Before the lips moved, Kendrick took a deep breath. Their lives are very strange.

"Kenny, Kevin, we live here, besides there's work that Daddy can't leave, here your Mommy doesn't have to work, have you gone to school?"

A question lodged in Kendrick's mind was thrown out as well, just wanting to know whether his two children were educated or not. See how hard it is to survive there.

Kenny and Kevin shook their heads quickly.

"We're not in school yet, Daddy, so we're staying here Dad?" Kevin asked with sparkling eyes.

Think of the plan as a reply from Kendrick.

"Yes!!!"

Both of Kevin's hands clenched into the air. He was very happy with his Daddy's decision because finally his Mommy did not need to work. After all, he is very happy to live here, wants to explore and have friends in this beautiful city.

If Kevin is carefree, in contrast to Kenny, the owner of blue eyes that displays a flat face and responds mediocre.

"Now we go to Grandma's, Daddy wants to see your Mommy."

Kendrick wants to see Ashley. Want to meet face to face with a woman who has made her feelings upset now.

Kenny and Kevin nodded then walked out of the room with Kendrick while struggling spoiled on the right and left.

***

After delivering the twins and asking Ashley whereabouts to Lily. Kendrick walked into the room.

Ashley flinched, when she heard the sound of the door opening suddenly. He was daydreaming just now, lamenting his fate for a moment. However, the figure of the man in front of the door made his heart seem to want to jump out now. Although at that time he did not see the face of the perpetrator who seized his crown but thanks to the face of the twins, Ashley can guess if the man who looked at him sharply at this time was Kendrick, the biological father of the twins.

See Kendrick step foot in his direction. Ashley moved quickly, then regressed her footsteps involuntarily. The trauma she suffered is still unfolding. I don't know why his body and hands were shaking all of a sudden. He panicked as the sound of a leg came closer.

"Sit down!" Kendrick dropped down on the sofa while staring coldly. Her forehead was furrowed, watching Ashley's agitation like seeing a ghost.

Upon hearing an unfamiliar voice and seeing Kendrick's deadly gaze, Ashley froze on the spot. Turning his face to the side, he stood firmly two meters away from Kendrick.

One sec.

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

Four seconds...

Ashley jumped in shock. Hearing the name of his son mentioned, reflexes he stepped closer to the sofa and sat awkwardly in front of Kendrick.

Kendrick snorted and spread out his hands on the sofa. Staring flatly at Ashley was bowing her face.

Silence is created for a moment.

"I don't know if my Mommy's story about you being kidnapped is true or not? Maybe you could rock, right?" said Kendrick instantly.

Ashley ventured, raised her face, and said, "That's right, on the day of my parents' death, a stranger suddenly kidnapped me and took me to the hotel where you snatched my crown, sir." Ashley's voice rattled, as much as possible not to shed tears in front of the man who traumatized her.

Kendrick didn't respond. Just staring at the flat Ashley who was currently squeezing her chest.

"Let's see if your reasons are right or not. I don't care, after all, what's wrong is that the criminal isn't me. I'm just wearing your suit!"

"What did you say?" Start to get emotional. "It's not your fault, you say?" Ashley clucked.

One little Kendrick eyebrow. "Yes, it's not my fault, are you not accepting?"

"Of course, I don't accept it, I asked you to let me go back then but you were like a deaf man! Next time you have a problem, don't vent it on the others, sir!" After a long time, Ashley finally managed to vent her emotions. Instead of apologizing, Kendrick cornered her. There's growing hatred in Ashley's heart now.

A cynical smile was engraved on Kendrick's face. "You don't have to interfere in my business, Mam! Like who I want to vent to."

Seeing Kendrick's expression, Ashley's chest rumbled strongly, eager to punch a punch in her face but a trace of fear remained. "I have to interfere in your business! Because of you, I have to support two boys alone! I could've aborted them but I still have a conscience, sir!" he said with fire.

Kendrick's speechless. Not showing any expression at all.

No word, Ashley's down again. It felt relieved after expressing all his complaints to the man who had taken his crown.

"My mom asked us to get married, did you know that?" Kendrick turned his gaze toward the window of the room, seeing a group of birds flying above the sky.

"Married?" Ashley's forehead is furrowed. "No, I don't want to marry a man like you!" he said with great emphasis.

Kendrick. "Ckck, you think I want to! I don't want to, but because of Kenny and Kevin, I'll take responsibility, make amends in the past!"

Ashley stands. Staring fiercely at Kendrick. "No need! Not necessary! Besides, the twins aren't the kids you want, Kan, so you don't have to feel guilty! I can support my children!" he then stepped quickly towards the doorway.

Unbeknownst to them, the words spoken from Ashley's lips, made one's footsteps stop moving behind the door.

"Stop!!!"

Kendrick's loud voice made Ashley stop her footsteps.

Kendrick got up, walked over to Ashley and stood in front of her staring.

"Listen to me, your children need me, you don't be selfish just selfish, Ashley, tomorrow we'll get married without your consent."

Ashley looks. "No–"

"Shefft! I'm not done talking!" Kendrick placed her index finger on the tip of Ashley's lip. "You take it easy, this marriage is only temporary, after they grow up we will divorce, after all in my heart there is already a woman who fills it" he said firmly. Staring coldly into Ashley's eyeballs.
