Not Twins (Natasha and Kenneth) -
Chapter 113
• After pondering a moment, Thalia looked at him in surprise. "A-Are you already in love?"
Anthony took a deep breath and shot her a warning glare. "Keep this up and I'll make you regret this."
• Thalia zipped her lips at once.
•
•
When she finally fell silent, Anthony continued replying to the message. As for Thalia, she would sneak an occasional glance to see what they were chatting about.
Late in the night, the nurses on the night shift were so sleepy that they sprawled on their desks for a quick nap.
• At the same time, a figure emerged from the corridor, treading softly like a phantom.
•
When he was about to reach Natasha's ward, someone suddenly tapped him on the shoulder.
•
•
Turning around vigilantly, he pressed a dagger against the person's chest. Subsequently, he furrowed his brows in surprise when he saw who it was.
Terrified of being held at knifepoint, Thea looked at him before pointing at the surveillance cameras above them while pretending to be calm.
• In the quiet corridor, the man stared at Thea with a horrifying look.
•
Thea returned his gaze. "It's really you."
The man remained silent.
"Were you the one behind the car accident?" Thea asked.
The man replied in a nonchalant tone, "It's none of your business."
•
"Are you planning to kill Natasha now?"
• The man said nothing as his gaze remained fixated on her.
•
"Anyway, do you know that there's someone inside?" Thea asked.
•
"Kenneth Hamilton."
• "Inside? Who?"
• The man narrowed his gaze at the news. "Good. In that case, I'll kill him together."
Thea was shocked by his words. "You promised me you wouldn't kill him!"
• "It's true that I did. But after what happened the last time, I'll kill anyone who stands in my way," the man vowed menacingly.
•
His words struck fear into Thea. "Your target is Natasha. Do you think the Hamilton family will just turn a blind eye if you kill Kenneth?"
•
"What makes you think I have any desire to live after killing them?"
·
"You..." Staring at him, Thea sensed that he had gone mad. However, she couldn't put Kenneth's life at risk.
•
After giving it some thought, she suggested, "At this time tomorrow night, I'll get Kenneth to come out."
• The man looked at her in consternation.
• "He's innocent," Thea added.
• The man gave her an insidious smile. "Fine. Since you have lent me a hand today, I'll give you a chance. If he's still here tomorrow, I will not show him any mercy." After giving her the side-eye, the man turned and left.
While Thea watched him leave, her heart pounded furiously, and both her fists were tightly clenched.
• Since it was the first time she had faced off with a murderer, it was understandable that she was nervous.
• It wasn't until he had disappeared from her sight that she felt her knees go weak.
• She held onto the railing and took a long time to finally calm down.
• At this moment, Caroline emerged from the corridor and walked up to Thea when she saw her. "Thea, what are you doing here at this ungodly hour?"
• Thea shook her head. "Nothing. I just wanted to get some air."
·
"Why do you look so pale? Did something happen?" Caroline asked.
• Thea shook her head again. "Not really. I'm just tired."
• Caroline scrutinized her from head to toe. "You're too thin. How are you going to recover quickly? Come, let's go back and rest." With that, she helped Thea walk back.
• On the way, Thea thought about what had just happened. Unable to resist herself, she asked, "Mom, have you seen a murderer before? What does it feel like to kill someone?"
Stunned, Caroline turned to look at her. "What are you talking about?"
• Thea shook her head. "It's nothing. I was just blurting nonsense."
•
Wrinkling her brows, Caroline gave Thea a worried look.
• The night passed without incident.
• The next morning, Kenneth was still sleeping upright on the couch when Natasha awoke.
•
After throwing him a glance, she got out of bed and decided to take a walk outside.
•
Staying in the hospital is such a pain in the ass.
•
Upon arriving at the corridor, she saw Terence, who had brought Benjamin and Denise along.
• "Nat!" Denise yelled from afar before throwing herself at Natasha. However, she pulled the brakes at the very last moment, worried that she would end up hurting the latter. She looked up and said, "Nat, it has only been one night, and I already miss you. Do you miss me too?"
• Natasha smiled, looking at Denise's beautiful face. "I should think so."
"Should?"
• "I slept so well that I forgot about it!"
• Denise protested, "But I was missing you the entire night..."
• Benjamin walked up and tousled Denise's hair. "Don't be silly. Mommy and Tony are alike. They're not good at expressing themselves. In other words, she does miss you!"
• Denise's eyes lit up, and a vibrant smile broke out on her face. "I think so too. Mommy loves me so much. I've no doubt that she misses me."
• Natasha merely stroked her head with a smile.
•
Meanwhile, Caroline was observing them from somewhere nearby.
• The children address Natasha as Mommy? Just that day, Old Mr. Hamilton was watching over them.
Caroline was filled with disbelief as her mind began to spin.
Noticing the shocked look on Caroline's face, Natasha swept her a glance without saying a word.
• At that moment, Terence walked over. "Nat, why are you up so early today?"
•
Natasha cracked a slight smile. "I walked here while following the delicious aroma of the food you brought."
⚫ Terence chuckled. "You have slowly become quite the flatterer, just like Benjamin."
•
"Of course. Mommy and I are the most alike!" Benjamin said.
• "That's not true. Mommy and I are the most alike. Both of us are equally beautiful!" Denise interjected.
·
•
•
"Um, since that's what you insist, I'm not going to argue with you over it. Nonetheless, the facts still don't change." "I hate you!"
"Fine, fine. You're the prettiest one in the family, all right?" Benjamin mollified her.
Denise was finally satisfied. "Mm-hmm, Mommy and I are the most alike." She nuzzled up against Natasha.
Everyone laughed at her reaction.
•
"All right, now. Go and have your breakfast," Terence said.
•
Natasha nodded before making her way back to the ward.
·
When Kenneth awoke to see that Natasha was gone, he dashed out in panic, only to catch a glimpse of everyone at the entrance.
• "Mr. Handsome?" Denise exclaimed at the sight of him.
• Kenneth heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Natasha was unharmed, and a gentle expression descended upon his face the moment he saw Denise and Benjamin. • "Denise, you're here!"
•
"Mm-hmm, I'm here with Great-grandpa to deliver Mommy's breakfast," Denise said.
•
Kenneth crouched down in front of her. His heart burst with affection over how cute she was.
Meanwhile, Caroline, who had been watching at the side, was utterly petrified at the scene that unfolded her.
