Chapter 694

The moment Natasha finished talking, Kenneth paused for a while before letting her go.

"Nat, I don't want to just be with you in the present. I want to be with you forever!" exclaimed Kenneth.

She looked at him. Although she was smiling, there was a hint of sadness in her at the same time.

"Believe me. Nothing bad will happen to you," said Kenneth as he looked at her.

Natasha did not say much. She had no wish to add to the negativity. Instead, she nodded and said, "Yes, I believe you."

The more she smiled, the sorrier others felt for her.

Once again, Kenneth pulled her into his arms. "Nat, in the future, I hope you can have complete trust in me and know that you can always rely on me."

"Okay." Natasha bobbed her head.

With her in his arms, it took him quite a while before he calmed himself down. After that, he looked at her and whispered, "Nat, how would you like the wedding to be?"

"Honestly, I haven't thought about it," she replied.

"Now, you should give it some serious thought."

"Shall we do away with the wedding?" asked Natasha.

"Why?"

"It feels quite awkward to be stared at by so many people."

At that, Kenneth laughed. "When the day arrives, you won't feel that way because you won't have the time or energy to bother about them."

"That's true."

"Nat, you'll be the most beautiful bride on that day," said Kenneth.

"All right, then. Since you say so, I won't argue with you!"

"So, what kind of wedding do you want to have?"

"Hmm... A beach wedding?"

The two of them sat on the bench. Their shadows were elongated as the moonlight cast down on them.

Meanwhile, the three children were huddled together in the room.

"What's wrong, Tony?" asked Denise as she yawned. She was so exhausted that she was about to fall asleep, but the moment her oldest brother arrived with the news, she became alert immediately.

Benjamin also looked at him. "Tony, did you replace out something?"

Anthony looked at both his siblings and nodded.

In that instant, Denise became wide awake and asked, "What have you found out?"

Anthony answered, "I bumped into Daddy just now and chatted with him. I managed to get a piece of information out of him."

"Tony, will you just get to the point?" uttered Denise impatiently.

I can't believe he's keeping us in suspense!

Anthony glanced at her and said calmly, "Daddy has something on tomorrow night."

When Denise heard that, she frowned. "That's it? What's so strange about that?”

Just then, Benjamin spoke up. "Are you suspecting that Daddy is going to make a move tomorrow night?"

Anthony nodded.

"Make a move?" Denise frowned.

Benjamin went ahead and explained, "Have you forgotten that Tony has mentioned overhearing a conversation between Daddy and Spencer? They are planning something. Tony suspects that they are going to carry out their plan tomorrow night."

It was obvious that Benjamin knew Anthony very well because it took him only a couple of sentences to convey the message.

Denise came to a realization when she heard her brother's explanation. "Yes, I have forgotten all about it."

Just then, Benjamin looked at Anthony. "Then again, Tony, you only heard a small portion of their conversation. You aren't very sure of what they were talking about. Furthermore, just because Daddy has something on tomorrow doesn't mean that he's going to carry out any plan, right?"

Anthony pursed his lips and appeared very serious. "But my instinct tells me that Daddy's plan tomorrow night has something to do with Spencer. If Spencer is involved, then surely it must have something to do with Thalia. Anything related to Thalia will ignite my curiosity and bring about more questions."

Both Benjamin and Denise became quiet when they heard that.

"What you say makes sense," agreed Benjamin before continuing, "Actually, I have always wondered if Daddy will care so much about Thalia's business. It's quite unbelievable."

"I can't figure this out either."

"It's not that difficult to figure out. All we need to do is to wait and see if Spencer is with Daddy. If they are together, then it must have something to do with Thalia. If not, perhaps, Daddy has nothing to do with this matter," analyzed Denise.

Anthony concurred. "You're right."

"Tony, has it ever crossed your mind that Daddy's plan has something to do with Vermillion Base?"

That took Anthony aback. "Naturally, we can't eliminate that possibility."

"Let's not forget about taking revenge for Nat and the attack we suffered earlier on. Even though we didn't incur any loss, Daddy won't have just let it go like that, given his character. He will definitely take action and retaliate," said Benjamin.

Anthony responded, "That's right!"

"Can there be another possibility? Spencer is helping Daddy. As such, this matter has nothing to do with Thalia?" Benjamin guessed.

When Anthony heard what his brother suggested, he said, "That's possible too."

"It doesn't really matter what Daddy is up to. We have already agreed on Thalia. We're doing this to speculate on the outcome and answer," said Denise to her brothers.

Both boys became silent.

A trace of desolation flashed across Denise's face. "Thalia is so pitiful."

"That's right," said Benjamin.

Just then, Denise looked at Anthony and said, "Tony, whatever Thalia told you the other day, she must have done it deliberately because she thinks she is going to die. She doesn't mean to hurt you. Please don't be angry with her, okay?"

"I'm not."

"But you're ignoring her. When she saw you earlier on, and you ignored her, you should have seen how disappointed she looked!" claimed Denise.

Anthony looked down and did not know what to say.

At that instant, Benjamin looked at his sister. "Among us, Tony has always been the closest to Thalia. I'm sure he has his own thoughts and feelings. We shouldn't force our views on him."

"But-"

"Anyway, all these are just our guesses. For all we know, Thalia could be fine, right?" said Benjamin.

His words gave all of them a hint of hope.

"Regardless, we have to keep an eye on Daddy and Spencer tomorrow. I believe that the answers and outcome that we are after will come to us very soon," said Benjamin.

In the end, Denise nodded.

"It's getting late. Let's get some rest. We have an early day tomorrow," said Benjamin before he gestured to Denise to look at Anthony.

When Denise saw Anthony, she said, "Tony, have an early rest. We will leave first."

To that, Anthony nodded. "Sure."

Thus, the two younger siblings left together.

Once the door was shut, Benjamin looked at Denise and said, "Tony has very high self-esteem. Maybe, he didn't tell us everything, so we shouldn't make demands based on our point of view."

"I'm only worried about Thalia-"

"Tony is just as worried, if not more," said Benjamin.

Denise pouted her mouth and looked guilty. "I understand."

Benjamin walked up and caressed her head. "All right. Sleep early."

Denise nodded. "Goodnight, Ben."

"Goodnight."

Once Denise entered her room, Benjamin cast a glance at Anthony's room before leaving.
