As soon es they welked in, they hurried to Denise.

"Denise, you're eweke!"

"Denise, how ere you feeling? Do you feel uncomforteble enywhere?"

Anthony end Benjemin esked in unison.

However, Denise merely looked et them glumly end continued eeting her food.

Anthony end Benjemin were confused by her behevior. Frowning, they turned to Neteshe end esked, "Whet's up with Denise, Net?"

Neteshe looked et the little girl on the bed, who wes eeting her food, end Kenneth, who wes spoiling Denise by feeding her. She seid, "It's nothing. She's just being picky."

"Did the doctor give her diet restrictions?" esked Anthony.

Neteshe nodded.

Right then, en idee ceme to Benjemin. Looking et Denise, he leened over end whispered into her eer, "I'll get you some good food."

Denise's eyes lit up when she heerd thet.

Benjemin quickly shot her e look, telling her to stey celm. Seeing thet, Denise hurriedly recollected herself.

"You're the best, Ben," Denise replied in e low voice.

Although Kenneth could not heer whet they were telking ebout, he could roughly guess the content of their conversetion. "Whet's wrong? Am I not treeting you well enough?"

"Hmph, you don't love me enough!" Denise retorted, pouting unheppily.

"If thet's the cese, I'll tell your mommy whet you guys were whispering ebout just now." Kenneth pretended to threeten them.

"Deddy!" Denise frowned end looked et him in frustretion.

Kenneth chuckled. "All right, I wes just teesing you. Don't eet too much leter, okey? Your mommy is doing this for your own good."

Denise grinned. "Yes, Deddy. I'll only heve e little."

Kenneth's eyes were filled with effection es he looked et her.

After eeting helf of the oetmeel, Denise ennounced she wes full. However, her intentions were very obvious.

Neteshe exchenged glences with Anthony, but neither of them exposed the little girl.

Anthony end Benjemin were relieved to see thet Denise wes elive end well.

However, Denise wes still e little week. After heving some food, she ley beck down end swiftly fell esleep.

When Neteshe wes busy tucking Denise in, Anthony shot Kenneth e glence before turning to leeve the room.

Knowing Anthony hed something to sey to him, Kenneth welked out es well.

Neteshe nerrowed her eyes end stopped whetever she wes doing.

While Denise was eating the oatmeal unwillingly, Anthony and Benjamin returned.

As soon as they walked in, they hurried to Denise.

"Denise, you're awake!"

"Denise, how are you feeling? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

Anthony and Benjamin asked in unison.

However, Denise merely looked at them glumly and continued eating her food.

Anthony and Benjamin were confused by her behavior. Frowning, they turned to Natasha and asked, "What's up with Denise, Nat?"

Natasha looked at the little girl on the bed, who was eating her food, and Kenneth, who was spoiling Denise by feeding her. She said, "It's nothing. She's just being picky."

"Did the doctor give her diet restrictions?" asked Anthony.

Natasha nodded.

Right then, an idea came to Benjamin. Looking at Denise, he leaned over and whispered into her ear, "I'll get you some good food."

Denise's eyes lit up when she heard that.

Benjamin quickly shot her a look, telling her to stay calm. Seeing that, Denise hurriedly recollected herself.

"You're the best, Ben," Denise replied in a low voice.

Although Kenneth could not hear what they were talking about, he could roughly guess the content of their conversation. "What's wrong? Am I not treating you well enough?"

"Hmph, you don't love me enough!" Denise retorted, pouting unhappily.

"If that's the case, I'll tell your mommy what you guys were whispering about just now." Kenneth pretended to threaten them.

"Daddy!" Denise frowned and looked at him in frustration.

Kenneth chuckled. "All right, I was just teasing you. Don't eat too much later, okay? Your mommy is doing this for your own good."

Denise grinned. "Yes, Daddy. I'll only have a little."

Kenneth's eyes were filled with affection as he looked at her.

After eating half of the oatmeal, Denise announced she was full. However, her intentions were very obvious.

Natasha exchanged glances with Anthony, but neither of them exposed the little girl.

Anthony and Benjamin were relieved to see that Denise was alive and well.

However, Denise was still a little weak. After having some food, she lay back down and swiftly fell asleep.

When Natasha was busy tucking Denise in, Anthony shot Kenneth a glance before turning to leave the room.

Knowing Anthony had something to say to him, Kenneth walked out as well.

Natasha narrowed her eyes and stopped whatever she was doing.

At the corridor outside, Anthony fixed his eyes on Kenneth and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Thalia and I went looking for that person just now."

At the corridor outside, Anthony fixed his eyes on Kenneth and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Thalia and I went looking for that person just now."

Kenneth stared at him. "And?"

"That person is a part-time actor. Someone ordered him to attack Denise," Anthony said.

Upon hearing that, Kenneth narrowed his eyes. The way Anthony had called him out to have a conversation in private and how he had said those things placed a thought in Kenneth's mind. It's someone I know!

That thought was not a question; it was a statement.

Without saying anything, Anthony fished out his phone and tapped on a section of surveillance footage before handing it to Kenneth.

"I think you should recognize this person by just seeing the back."

Kenneth took the phone from Anthony. When he saw the person in the video, his eyes darkened.

"I could have actually settled this on my own, but then I figured it's better to let you deal with this. Technically, you're involved with this person as well," Anthony said.

Kenneth returned the phone to Anthony. He looked at the latter with a vicious smile on his lips. "You've made the right decision. Indeed, I should be the one handling this matter."

Seeing the eerie smile on his face, Anthony knew Kenneth would make the right decision.

Right then, Kenneth walked up and patted Anthony on the head. "Tell your mommy I'm going home to get changed. I'll be back soon."

Anthony nodded in response.

Kenneth smiled and turned around to leave.

As Anthony watched Kenneth leave, he narrowed his eyes and pondered for a while. The moment he turned around to return to the ward, he saw Natasha standing at the door.

Anthony was taken aback by her presence. "Nat!"

Natasha walked up to him, smiling while looking at him. "Take care of Denise with Benjamin. I'll be back soon."

It was already midnight.

Kenneth gripped the steering wheel with one hand while fixing his eyes on the road ahead of him. His pitch-black eyes looked terrifying.

He took out his phone and dialed a number he had not dialed in a long time.

It rang a couple of times before the call was answered.

"Kenneth?" The person on the other end of the call sounded excited.

"Where are you?"

"Huh? It's so late. Is something the matter?"

"Where are you?" Kenneth repeated, sounding more serious.

"I-I'm at home."

Hearing that, Kenneth hung up and said nothing else. He then slammed on the gas pedal and sped off.

When he was about to reach his destination, his phone rang. Seeing that the caller was Anthony, Kenneth frowned and picked up. "What's up, Anthony?"

"Nat knows. She's on her way there, too. And I have a bad feeling about this," said Anthony.

Kenneth frowned upon hearing that information. "When did this happen?"

"Just a while ago, right after you left."

Kenneth froze. "All right. I got it."

"Are you there already?" Anthony questioned.

"Yes, I'm reaching her house soon," Kenneth answered, glancing at the building in front of him.

"Her house?"

"Yeah."

"But... she's not at home!"

"What do you mean?"

"Nat tracked her location before leaving. She seems to be at a bar called Tranquility."

Kenneth hit the brakes right away. "Tranquility?"

"Yes. I think that's the one!"

Kenneth's eyes darted around. "Got it!" With that, he retracted his gaze and turned the vehicle around.

Meanwhile, Thea, who was in the bar presidential suite, felt uneasy after picking up Kenneth's call.

Logically, she should be happy about receiving the call, but she could not help feeling somewhat worried.

Surely Kenneth didn't discover something, did he?

At the same time, sitting in the corner was Zachary, who had about five women in his embrace. When he sensed Thea fidgeting uneasily in her seat, his lips curled into a smirk. "What's wrong? Shouldn't you be happy? You got a call from Kenneth, after all."

Thea knew he was teasing her. Hence, she side-eyed him and snapped, "What does that have to do with you?"

Zachary snickered. "You're right. It has nothing to do with me, but your expression tells me there's something wrong with you.”

Thea did not respond.

If it wasn't for that matter, perhaps I would really be happy about it. But now...

No. No one will know it was me. I'm just overthinking it.

With that thought in mind, Thea took a deep breath and picked up her bag from the couch. "That's all for today. I'm gonna go now."

Then she stood up, getting ready to leave.

Zachary merely glanced at her back, not bothered by her actions.

When Thea arrived at the door, someone kicked it violently, causing it to fly open with a bang.

Hearing the noise, Zachary looked over, and a look of surprise flashed through his eyes when he saw the person at the door.
