Not Twins (Natasha and Kenneth)
Chapter 140

• Fabian realized something upon seeing Kenneth's reaction.

• He adjusted the rearview mirror and uttered in a serious tone, "Mr. Hamilton, think about it. If Ms. Watson really didn't have any feelings for you, why would she give birth to the children? Of all the friends I have, the women will unhesitatingly go for an abortion after divorcing their partners. Not only does it provide closure, but it will also be easier for them to start a new relationship. Ms. Watson, however, didn't do that. I can tell that she's capable of critical thinking. Since she's a smart and beautiful woman, I can't think of any other reasons for her actions!"

Fabian sincerely thought his opinion was a good one. I'm pretty sure that's it. Unlike me, Mr. Hamilton just hasn't realized it yet. I'm so smart!

Kenneth furrowed his brows upon hearing that. Natasha said she had already gone through with the abortion, and I believed her. But that's not the case. I haven't actually thought it through. I guess I've been too happy about getting them back. What Fabian said makes sense.

For some reason, Kenneth's lips curled up into a smile.

The furrow in Kenneth's brows relaxed. He looked at Fabian and ordered, "Drive faster."

Kenneth was eager to see Natasha so that he could get an explanation from her.

Fabian quietly breathed a sigh of relief when he sensed that the mood in the car had lightened up. Phew. That was close.

Half an hour later, they arrived at the hospital.

• "You can head back first." With that, Kenneth opened the car door and was about to get out.

•

When Fabian saw that, he opened his mouth and said hesitatingly, "Mr. Hamilton..."

• Kenneth turned around and looked at him.

• After a brief hesitation, Fabian smiled. "Mr. Hamilton, women get embarrassed easily. You know what I mean, right?"

• Indeed. But Natasha isn't an ordinary woman. Hence, Natasha shouldn't be considered as one of them! Kenneth glanced at him silently before closing the car door and walking straight into the hospital.

• Um... Mr. Hamilton knows what I meant, right? Yes. I think he does! Fabian nodded and watched Kenneth walk into the hospital. I said nothing tonight!

⚫ In the hospital, the corridors were empty, and the entire place was so silent that one could hear a pin drop.

• When Kenneth arrived outside Natasha's ward, which was two doors away from his, he saw that the lights were switched off inside. Is she asleep?

·

•

Upon deliberation, Kenneth opened the door quietly and strode in. Even if she was asleep, he was still eager to see her.

There was complete darkness in the ward.

• He spotted the bed in the darkness and walked toward it.

• "Who is it?" Suddenly, a voice rang out from behind. The person tried to grab him, but Kenneth reacted quickly enough to dodge, turn around, and grab the attacker. Upon taking a closer look at the attacker, he grabbed her wrist and pinned her against the wall.

•

"Calm down. It's me!" Kenneth said in a deep voice.

•

Since they were so near to each other, Natasha knew who she was dealing with, and she frowned.

•

While pinning her against the wall, Kenneth smiled and asked, "What? Did you stay up in the middle of the night just to launch a sneak attack?"

• Natasha knitted her brows again because Kenneth's action had caused pain to her injury. Instead of whining about it, she stared at him and asked, "What about you, Mr. Hamilton? Did you stay up just to sneak into someone else's room?"

Someone else's room? Kenneth grinned and retorted, "I didn't just sneak into a random person's room!"

• His deep voice sounded rather alluring in the dark ward.

•

Natasha didn't say a word in response. Instead, she just stared at him.

•

Kenneth was staring back at her as well.

• Considering the setting they were in and the distance between the two of them, Kenneth gulped, and his gaze was darkening by the second. Her face and her lips...

• They were both breathing heavily at that point.

• Kenneth looked at her and asked in a hoarse voice, "Natasha, why did you decide to give birth to the three of them?"

• Natasha was surprised by his question. She blinked and answered, "There's no particular reason for that."

• "You hated me to the bone back then, didn't you?" Kenneth inched closer and enveloped her body with his tall and sturdy figure. "You were right. I know you hated me a lot. You should've just gone through with the abortion to sever our ties, but that's not what you did. This is very unlike you."

• Natasha seemed to know what he was implying. "What exactly do you want to ask?"

• Kenneth gulped and looked into her eyes when he asked, "Are you..."

•

Kenneth had trouble finishing his sentence when he saw the cold look in Natasha's eyes.

• "You think the reason I kept the children is that I have feelings for you, do you?" Natasha asked bluntly.

·

•

Kenneth didn't say a word in response. He just kept staring at her. If that's the reason, I won't hesitate to kiss her and tell her what's on my mind at this instant!

Natasha chuckled and continued, "So you, too, think that I kept the children so that I can join the Hamilton family in the future?"

• "That's not what I meant..."

•

"Kenneth, I left you because of the kids! Since I don't have any relatives, the kids are precious to me. I don't want the kids to die because of my personal failures. I don't mind losing the marriage, but I must be responsible for the kids!" Natasha stared into his eyes and enunciated every single word clearly.

•

Kenneth frowned immediately. Although that's not what I asked about, she seemed to have provided some clarity. "Natasha-"

• "If these three kids are troubling you, then I would like to offer you an apology. I promise you that no matter who you want to be with in the future, the kids and I will not bother you. From now on, I'll take full responsibility for them, and you'll be completely out of the picture!"

• The more she said, the deeper Kenneth's frown became.

• Suddenly, he felt anger raging from within. "Natasha, do you actually understand what I was trying to say? I'm not blaming you. As for the three kids, I feel nothing but gratitude. I'm very grateful that you brought them into this world, and I'm grateful that you gave me the chance to be their father. I'm just incredibly happy with the fact that I have a chance to make things right. Also, I'm happy that we now have a bond between us that can never be broken. Do you understand what I'm saying now?" At that moment, his deep and hoarse voice sounded rather domineering.
