Chapter 624

The next day, when Kenneth and Natasha headed downstairs for breakfast, Dave was already having breakfast in the dining hall.

Dave raised his gaze when they walked down the stairs, and his eyes met Kenneth's in the air.

However, the two remained silent. They acted like kids not talking to each other after a fight, completely different from their usual interaction.

After walking down the stairs, Natasha was the first to break the silence by saying, "Good morning."

Dave shifted his gaze to Natasha and nodded. "Morning."

Seeing that Kenneth had no intention of taking a seat, Natasha ignored him and sat by the dining table. Kenneth's brows scrunched up at that scene.

Then, Natasha raised her gaze and looked at him. "Take a seat. Aren't you having breakfast?"

Since Natasha had said so, Kenneth knew he didn't have a choice. He glanced at Dave before sitting down reluctantly.

Meanwhile, Dave remained composed and continued eating his breakfast while scrolling his phone. It was as if he was not bothered by Kenneth's presence.

Seeing that, Kenneth's frown deepened. Then, he also looked away and treated Dave like air.

Natasha could not stop her lips from curling in amusement while watching this scene. Despite being adults, the two were acting like children. It was hilarious. Soon, the housekeeper served them their breakfast.

"Please enjoy." The housekeeper left the dining hall right after serving breakfast.

Dave kept his gaze lowered all the time and did not even bother looking at them.

At the same time, Kenneth also focused on his breakfast, but his tense expression added more awkwardness to the atmosphere.

Natasha suddenly said, "Dave."

Dave was startled and raised his gaze. "What's the matter?"

"I want to borrow your car," Natasha said.

Dave stared at her. "Are you heading out?"

"Yup." Natasha nodded.

Dave was about to say something, but Kenneth looked at Natasha and interrupted by asking, "Where are you going?"

Looking at the two men, Natasha said, "After losing my phone, I ordered another, and the new phone has arrived. I want to go and collect it."

"Where is it?"

"Where is it?"

Dave and Kenneth asked the same question at the same time.

Almost immediately, they realized they were in sync and looked at each other.

Natasha also looked at them. "You guys are quite in sync."

"No way."

"No way!"

Again, they denied that in unison.

Kenneth frowned this time and looked at Dave. "Can you stop mimicking me?"

"You're the one mimicking me!" Dave exclaimed.

"I" Kenneth was at a loss for words for a moment. Then, he put his arm around Natasha and said, "She's my woman, so it's only natural that I'm talking to her!"

Dave refused to admit defeat. "But your woman talked to me first. Also, she was asking me a question instead of talking to you."

Kenneth could not replace the words to refute.

The two glared at each other in silence.

Natasha finally could not hold back her laughter. She chuckled, yet that simple gesture emanated a sense of charm and allure.

Kenneth furrowed his brows when she chuckled. "Nat, what are you laughing at?"

Natasha looked at them smilingly. "You two remind me of Anthony and Benjamin when you fight."

Kenneth and Dave were both rendered speechless by her remark.

After being teased by Natasha, the two exchanged a glance. There was a hint of embarrassment in their gazes.

A long moment later, Kenneth mumbled, "We're not fighting. We aren't children. Why would we fight?"

"Is that so?" Natasha raised her brows.

"Of course," said Kenneth. "I can speak for myself, but I'm not sure if a certain someone feels the same."

Hearing that, Dave knew Kenneth was referring to him, so he immediately refuted, "Kenneth, I have a name. Who are you trying to imply by saying that?"

"Whoever that admits to what I said."

"You're the one picking a fight. How could you point fingers at others?" Dave questioned.

"How am I picking a fight?" Kenneth responded with another question.

"You should know better!"

"I don't know anything!"

"Then reflect on yourself! You will know the answer once you reflect on what you did!"

"I" When Kenneth was about to say something, he noticed Natasha was pointing her phone camera at them. She was clearly recording a video of them.

On top of that, she was laughing so brightly at them, as though she was enjoying the show.

Seeing that, Kenneth immediately realized something. Similarly, Dave also realized something. The two quickly concealed their agitated emotions.

Then, Kenneth said, "I've thought this through, so I no longer have to reflect on myself!"

Dave snorted and looked away.

Kenneth reached out and snatched the phone out of Natasha's hands.

She laughed. "Are you guys done fighting?"

"Like I said earlier, we're not fighting," Kenneth stubbornly denied that.

Natasha arched a brow and decided to drop the matter.

After that, Dave said to Natasha, "The car is in the garage. You can use it whenever you want." Then, he stood up and walked away.

"Wait a minute," Kenneth suddenly said.

Dave stopped in his tracks and turned around to look at Kenneth. "Is there anything else?"

Kenneth stared at him, parting his lips and wanting to say something, but he could not replace the words to say.

"I'll be going if there's nothing you want to say." Dave walked away.

"What's the hurry?" Kenneth blurted out.

Dave stood by the door, looking a little annoyed.

Kenneth hesitated for a moment before saying, "Bring me to pay my respect to Zavier in the afternoon."

Hearing that, Dave stiffened and turned around, looking at Kenneth. "W-What did you say?"

Kenneth looked at him. "What's the matter? Are your ears not working already at your age?"

Dave frowned.

Kenneth hesitated again before saying, "I'm asking you to bring me to pay my respect to Zavier in the afternoon. I guess it's time for me to face him."

This time, Dave heard him clearly, but he was still shocked as he looked at Kenneth.

After all, Kenneth disappeared after quitting DX Group ever since Zavier sacrificed himself. Kenneth did not know where Zavier was buried and also wouldn't allow anyone to mention the latter's name again.

Thus, Dave once assumed Kenneth would never set foot in this place again if it weren't for Natasha.

But now, Kenneth wants to pay his respect to Zavier. Does that mean he's finally moved on?

Dave walked over and looked at Kenneth in disbelief. "A-Are you sure about that?"

Staring at Dave, Kenneth said, "I am sure about that."

All of a sudden, Dave did not know what to say.

Kenneth continued, "You were right. I should focus more on building my future. It's time for me to move on from that."

Dave looked as though he was struck by lightning. Kenneth was still grieving Zavier's death last night, so Dave was dumbfounded to see him talking about moving on from it the next day.

He shifted his gaze to Natasha, waiting for her to say something. Instead, Natasha smiled at him and shrugged, indicating that she had nothing to say.

Despite not knowing the reason, Dave was glad that Kenneth had thought things through and was ready to move on. He reached out and patted Kenneth on the shoulder. "All right."
