Not Twins (Natasha and Kenneth)
Chapter 94

• Liam loved Denise and Benjamin so much that he didn't want to say goodbye to them.

• Unable to bring himself to separate them, Terence could only watch helplessly from the side.

Eventually, he decided to speak up and said, "All right, it's getting late now. You should head back and rest."

•

Liam looked out the window and saw that the sky was already dark.

•

•

•

It was indeed quite late at the time, but Liam was really reluctant to leave the kids.

"The kids need to head home and rest too, you know?" Terence said.

"How about I send them home?" Liam asked with an eyebrow arched.

. "That won't be necessary-"

•

"Okay, sure." Natasha spoke up all of a sudden.

•

Terence, Liam, and Kenneth all turned to look at her in confusion.

"R-Really?" Liam asked.

• "If you don't mind, you could even take them home with you and look after them for the night, Old Mr. Hamilton. As you can see, I can't take care of them at the hospital. My grandpa has his hands full with me, so he can't look after them either. It'd be great if you could help babysit them for us," Natasha replied.

• Liam nodded profusely. "I don't mind at all! In fact, I'm more than happy to help out!"

• "I'll be placing them in your care, then."

• "You can count on me!" Liam was practically touched to tears at that point.

• Natasha then looked at Denise and Benjamin as she said, "Make sure to behave yourselves over there, okay?"

They weren't sure what Natasha was playing at, but they decided to go along with it and replied with a nod, "Got it, Nat!"

"All right. You should head on home now, Old Mr. Hamilton."

"Okay. You make sure to rest well too, Nat. Don't worry about the kids. I'll be sure to bring them back to you tomorrow!" Liam reassured her.

• Natasha simply nodded at him in response.

• Just like that, Liam held their hands and headed out the door excitedly.

•

Terence couldn't help but feel like his grandkids had been taken away as he watched them leave.

•

Right as Liam was about to get into his car, Terence grabbed him by the arm and said, "Don't forget your promise to me, Liam."

• "How many times do I have to tell you this, Terence? I'm not going to take them away from you!" Liam then leaned in close as he continued, "Besides, I've already thought of a brilliant idea! I could move into your house and look after them together with you! You can rest assured that I won't be stealing your great-grandkids!"

•

Terence shot him a doubtful glare before releasing his grip on him.

• "Denise, Benjamin, hop in!" Liam said.

• "Don't worry, Gramps! We'll be coming back tomorrow!" the two kids reassured Terence.

•

•

"All right. Remember to behave yourselves over there," Terence replied with a smile.

"All right now. Let's go," Liam called out to Kenneth.

Kenneth made his way over to the car and told Terence, "I'll come back here to look after Nat after sending my grandpa home, Old Mr. Watson."

• That won't be necessary. You two are divorced, so it's hardly appropriate for you to keep coming over like this. Just take good care of your grandfather." Terence maintained a cold and distant attitude when talking to him.

• Kenneth said nothing further and drove off after that.

• Anthony was already inside the ward by the time Terence returned.

• Although he was surprised to see Anthony, Terence shifted his gaze toward Natasha and asked, "Why did you let them take Denise and Benjamin away?"

•

"Why, don't you trust Old Mr. Hamilton?" she asked with a smile.

• "I... I do believe in Liam. It's Kenneth that I don't trust!" Terence replied.

• "We can't keep this a secret from them forever," Natasha said in a matter-of-fact tone.

"That may be true, but what if they don't return the kids to us?" Terence was still a little concerned about that.

• Natasha glanced at Anthony, prompting him to say proudly, "No worries, Gramps! Both Denise and Benjamin are very smart, so it won't be easy to hold them against their will. If they insist on taking me away, I'll cry and scream all day if that's what it takes to come back! I'm sure Denise and Benjamin will do the same as well. I doubt someone who loves their kin so much would let that happen!"

•

Terence turned to look at Natasha in shock. "Does Anthony-"

·

"I've told him everything," Natasha replied honestly.

•

Terence fell speechless after hearing that.

•

"Relax, Gramps. Even if they do try to keep Denise and Benjamin with them, you'll still have me," Anthony reassured him.

• Of course, Terence wasn't convinced in the slightest.

• "I have my reasons for doing this, Grandpa. I'm already making a huge compromise by trusting them and giving them a chance to spend time with the kids. If they dare try anything funny, then I won't hold back against them. I believe Old Mr. Hamilton won't let things get to that extent," Natasha added.

"That may be true, but I still feel worried," Terence mumbled.

• "You're only worried because you've been too tense lately. It's been a day since you last slept. You should go home and get some rest," Natasha said.

• "I'm not tired, nor am I feeling sleepy," Terence replied.

• "But Anthony needs rest to ensure his proper growth," Natasha protested.

⚫ Terence glanced at Anthony and let out a chuckle. "They still don't know about Anthony's existence, so they think you only have two kids."

• "Which is exactly why I didn't show myself earlier. That way, we won't all be taken away at once!" Anthony said.

⚫ Terence leaned in and gave him an affectionate pinch on the cheek. "You sure are a smart one, Anthony!"

• Natasha looked at them as she said, "All right, it's really late now. Bring Anthony back home and rest well, Grandpa. I'm about to get some sleep myself."

• "I can't rest easy leaving you here all by yourself. I think I'll stay and watch over you," Terence replied.

• "Me too, Nat!" Anthony chimed in as well.

"There are doctors and nurses here, so you two don't have to worry about a thing. It's not like I can't move or get out of bed by myself. Besides, you'll both be coming over the next morning, so I'll be fine," Natasha reassured them.

• "But..."

•

"Do as I say, okay?"

•

Anthony fell silent and didn't dare to say anything further.

•

Terence nodded. "All right, I'll talk to the nurses before I leave."

•

Natasha nodded in response, and Terence brought Anthony out of the ward after that.

• As they had yet to replace the person who tried to take Natasha's life, it was highly possible for that person to strike again.

•

Still feeling a little uneasy, Anthony decided to send Thalia a message.
