Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 1061

When Natasha went out, Terence was still waiting at the door.

The moment the door creaked open, he immediately looked up. Upon seeing Natasha, his gaze softened slightly, a hint of relief washing over him.

“Nat.”

And the moment Natasha saw him, she was slightly taken aback.

At that moment, even without saying it, Natasha knew he was worried about her, and that was why he never left.

Gently closing the door, Natasha walked toward him. “Grandpa.”

Terence looked at her, his heart aching as he noticed her reddened eyes. “What's wrong? Did Liam upset you?”

Natasha immediately shook her head. “No. Old Mr. Hamilton didn't blame me.”

Upon hearing that, Terence was taken aback. After a moment of silence, he finally spoke. “Then why are you crying?”

Natasha looked up at him. “When I came back, I was fully prepared. No matter what Old Mr. Hamilton said or did, I thought it would be justified. I thought of various outcomes, yet I didn't expect he wouldn't blame me and instead comforted me!”

That turn of events was indeed unexpected.

Listening to that, Terence was truly surprised.

Not to mention Kenneth's past and character, it was crystal clear that Kenneth was the one Liam held dear in his heart. Liam cherished Kenneth as much as his life. Regardless of how he scolded or beat Kenneth in ordinary times, it was just his way of expressing love.

So, hearing Natasha say that, Terence was indeed somewhat surprised.

To put it bluntly, if Terence were in Liam's shoes, he probably wouldn't be able to be so forgiving and magnanimous.

Pursing his lips, Terence said, “Terence has always been like this. Sometimes, being too worldly can also be a burden.”

Natasha pressed her lips together, remaining silent.

At that moment, Terence sighed. “Nat, Terence is magnanimous, but we can't feign ignorance under the guise of his generosity, do you understand?”

Natasha looked at him and nodded. “I understand, Grandpa. Don't worry. I know what I'm doing and have made all the necessary arrangements.”

Terence nodded. “All right. In that case, since it's getting late, you should rest early, too!”

With that, Terence didn't say any more. He glanced at her, then turned around to leave.

As she watched his retreating figure, a wave of emotion stirred in Natasha's heart.

“Grandpa,” Natasha suddenly said.

Upon hearing the sound, Terence turned his head toward her. “What's the matter? Is there anything else?”

“Aren't you going to ask me what actually happened?” Natasha asked.

Terence looked at her, a tender smile gracing his face. “It's enough that you've returned safely; nothing else matters.”

Natasha's eyes instantly reddened once again after she heard that.

Watching Terence, she quickly stepped forward and hugged him. “Grandpa...”

Watching her rush over and hearing her teary voice, Terence reached out and gently patted her back. “What's wrong? Why are you crying?”

“I'm sorry,” Natasha murmured.

“Why are you apologizing again?”

After a long while, Natasha finally let go of Terence, her eyes filled with remorse. “Grandpa, I'm sorry. I lied to you.”
