Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth)
Chapter 161

Chapter 161 I Will Get You Out

Liam lectured and chided Kenneth. The former felt a lot better after venting out his frustrations.

Especially after knowing Kenneth's feelings for Natasha, Liam could finally leave in satisfaction.

Despite berating Kenneth, Liam knew his own grandson pretty well. Kenneth surely has some skills. Now, I only have to wait for him to marry Nat. Then I can just wait to enjoy the good times with my family. Before Liam left, he suddenly recalled something and turned to look at Kenneth. "By the way, I forgot to tell you that Zachary's mother has just returned from abroad today."

Narrowing his eyes, Kenneth could not help sizing Liam up. “Grandpa, why do I feel that you care more about this matter than I do?"

Liam's face instantly turned frosty. "Do you think I did that for you? I'm only worried that Nat might get hurt!" Liam shot a glare at Kenneth immediately after saying that. He then flicked his sleeves and was about to leave.

Fabian stood at the door and hurriedly prepared to send Liam off. "Old Mr. Hamilton, goodbye."

"Keep an eye on him. I'll come after you if anything happens to him again!" Liam warned coldly.

"Yes!" Fabian hung his head lower.

Fabian secretly heaved a sigh of relief after Liam left.

He turned around and stared at Kenneth. Just when he wanted to say something, he spotted Kenneth's gaze on him.

Kenneth's darkened gaze sent chills down Fabian's spine.

As though pretending that he did not see that, Fabian cleared his throat and said, "Mr. Hamilton... Well, I'll go get you breakfast!" "Fabian Houde!" Kenneth's voice was cold, yet it sounded like he was teasing Fabian.

In an instant, Fabian stopped in his tracks. With his back facing Kenneth, he put on a sullen look.

The sullen look was soon replaced by a flattering one when he cast his gaze upon Kenneth again.

"Mr. Hamilton, is there anything else?"

"Why are you standing so far away?" Kenneth arched a brow, his voice husky, and an unfathomable smile crept over his face.

"I'm not..." replied Fabian, his voice trembled a little involuntarily.

"Come closer..." Kenneth curled his lips into a smirk.

As soon as Fabian caught sight of that smirk, he was petrified.

Then, he took a small step forward.

Seeing that, Kenneth narrowed his eyes, and his voice turned colder. "Do you possibly think I will eat you alive?"

Of course, Kenneth was unable to do so, but Fabian would face a consequence worse than that.

Left with no choice, Fabian took another step further.

Meanwhile, Kenneth scrutinized him with a sneer. "How did I get to the hospital yesterday?"

"Haha... Hah... You were really drunk yesterday, so I sent you to the hospital!"

"How did you do that?"

"Hmm... Well..." Fabian was utterly helpless. "I carried you here..."

Kenneth cracked his neck as he kept his gaze fixed on Fabian. The latter sensed that things were not going too well for him, so a gamut of thoughts flooded his mind.

"Mr. Hamilton, do you know that yesterday, Little Marshmallow... I mean Ms. Denise. She was worried sick about you!" said Fabian.

Kenneth was stunned for a brief moment. Then he looked at Fabian and replied, "Denise?"

"Yes, she sent me a text message yesterday. She was so worried about you!" emphasized Fabian.

"How did she replace out about this?" questioned Kenneth with his eyes narrowed to slits.

Fabian immediately took out his phone and searched for the video from yesterday. He handed the phone over to show Kenneth. "I have no idea who uploaded the video to the internet, but Denise recognized you at a glance. She tried calling you but couldn't get ahold of you, so she looked for me instead."

Kenneth glanced at the video with a frown.

"Besides, Old Mr. Hamilton recognized you from the video, too. It wasn't me who told him!" explained Fabian, looking aggrieved.

It doesn't matter to me if Fabian feels aggrieved or not. I only wonder if Natasha already heard about this since Denise already knew. Did Natasha see the video too?

With his mind awash with all sorts of questions, Kenneth turned toward Fabian and asked, "Aside from Denise, did anyone else look for you?"

Of course, Fabian knew Kenneth was referring to Natasha.

After contemplating for a while, he decided to tell the truth. Shaking his head, Fabian replied, "Hmm... No one else."

Hearing that, Kenneth tossed the phone at him. His mind became a complete mess in an instant.

What a heartless woman!

Upon noticing the displeased look on Kenneth's face, Fabian immediately continued, "Although no one else looked for me, when Denise asked me about you yesterday, I had a feeling that Ms. Watson was there too."

"Is that true?" Kenneth turned his head at once.

"Em... Whether it's true or not, I can't be sure about that. I just had a feeling! Yup!" As soon as Fabian finished his words, he nodded, looking serious. Yup, I had a feeling.

Staring at Fabian, Kenneth narrowed his eyes, and a cold smile appeared on his face.

"Fabian, I realize you're getting bolder..."

Feeling the increasing tension in the atmosphere, Fabian looked at Kenneth.

"Do you think of me as a kid now?" asked Kenneth.

"N-No."

"You have yet to explain to me what exactly happened yesterday," Kenneth asked nonchalantly.

"Y-Yesterday..." As though he was pondering over something, Fabian took a few steps back in trepidation, his body slightly trembling. In the end, he mustered his courage and replied, "Mr. Hamilton, it's getting late! I'll go get you breakfast now, and I'll be back soon!" Fabian scurried away after saying that.

It's the best if I leave right now! That's the best way!

It was not until Fabian ran to somewhere afar and made sure Kenneth would not catch up to him that he finally stopped.

He was panting heavily after running for a long while. Oh my God! That was too terrifying! Why did I act so rashly? And why did I even do such an act yesterday? Wasn't it better if I just tried to persuade him nicely?

A bitter look crept over Fabian's face, and he was filled with regrets.

Fabian wished he would pass out on the spot when he thought of facing Kenneth after he went back later.

At night, there was a bungalow engulfed by raging flames.

A little girl, who was around eight years old, pushed the door open. She was startled upon seeing the people lying on the ground when she was about to call for help.

She swiftly made her way toward them and started shaking their bodies.

"Daddy! Mommy!"

However, what she received, in turn, was nothing but coldness from the bodies.

She was stunned, knowing what that could mean. As if she had lost all the hopes she had held onto, she slumped down.

The menacing flames were spreading mercilessly. Yells came from outside, and someone even called her, telling her to go out. It was as if she had heard nothing, she went down on her knees right in front of her parents, shedding tears silently.

The infernal blaze was so fierce as if it was going to devour the entire place.

The little girl gradually lost her consciousness and collapsed right before her parents.

Before she passed out completely, a figure came into her sight.

"Nat!" someone called her.

A boy rushed into the house and went to her directly.

"Nat, don't be afraid. I'll get you out of here!" assured the boy as he carried her on his back with all his might, trying to drag her out.

She could hardly see or feel anything. With her eyes half-closed, she stared at the boy carrying her. His cheeks were flushed red, for he had exerted so much force.

"Hang in there! I'll bring you out!" he promised.

However, just when they almost arrived at the door, the cabinet at the side fell and smashed onto them.

Natasha abruptly opened her eyes.

She stared at the ceiling above, her heart racing.

A long while later, she slowly snapped back to her senses from the dream.

Instead of a dream, it was actually an incident she had experienced when she was still a child.

It was just that it had been so long since the last time she had dreamt about it. At that moment, she was overwhelmed by an indescribable emotion that she could hardly put in words.
