Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 1072

An hour later.

Thalia's phone chimed. It was a message from Anthony.

She spoke softly, “It's time. I have to go now.”

Spencer continued holding her from behind tightly, with no intention of letting go.

Thalia twisted around to look at the person behind her and murmured, “I really have to go now.”

In response, Spencer could only sigh helplessly. “This Anthony really is tenacious. You've just got back, and he's already trying to whisk you away again.”

Unexpectedly, upon hearing those words, Thalia immediately said, “Those who accomplish great things are always very tenacious.”

Spencer's eyes narrowed slightly when he heard that. “What, are you defending him?”

Thalia immediately clarified, “I was just telling the truth.”

Spencer reached out, pulling her toward him once again. His large hand rested on the small of her back, drawing her closer. His tone was suggestive as he leaned in. “But why does it sound like you're blaming me?”

The two of them were nose to nose, so close that they could even feel each other's breath. The faint scent of tobacco on him made Thalia's mind grow hazy.

She murmured, “I'm not...”

Spencer peppered light kisses on her lips. Then, he whispered into her ear, “Remember, from now on, you can only stand up for me.”

Hearing that, Thalia laughed. “Are you jealous?”

“Clearly, I am.”

“But you're jealous of the wrong person. Who would be jealous of a child?” Thalia murmured, eyes closed as she asked.

Spencer's gaze was focused on her. “I can't be jealous of someone that doesn't exist.”

“What do you mean?”

“Have you ever looked at anyone else but me?” Spencer retorted.

Upon hearing this, even though it was the truth, Thalia couldn't help but feel that he was somewhat narcissistic. She looked at him, her eyebrows furrowing. “How do you know that I haven't? Besides, all the men around me are top-tier handsome.”

“Are you referring to Kyle, Holden, or those brothers of yours from Darknetz?” Spencer asked.

Thalia said, “Apart from them, I also know other people.”

“Are you referring to the man who confessed his love to you three years ago, only to be beaten by you until he was left searching for his teeth?” Spencer questioned..

Thalia shot him a surprised look. “How do you know about that?”

Spencer merely laughed. “How I know isn't important. What's important is you rejected him!”

Thalia suddenly became alert. She knew that Spencer had been keeping a close eye on her these past few years, but she never imagined that he would know even these things.

Looking at him, an indescribable coolness suddenly filled her eyes “You—”

Before she could finish her words, Spencer pulled her into his arms again. Nothing else mattered; what was important was that she was here with him now, in his arms. She was his.

Thalia wanted to ask something else, but just then, her phone chimed again.

She knew that it was Anthony urging her to hurry up.

At last, Spencer let her go. “All right, it's getting late. I'll walk you out.”

“No need.” Thalia half rose, watching him as she declined his offer.

“Why?”

“I don't like the sight of you watching me leave. I prefer the sight of you coming to greet me when I return,” Thalia said as she looked at him.

Spencer laughed. “All right.”

And so, without any further ado, Thalia promptly stood up and put on her coat.

As she picked up her backpack, ready to leave, the person lying on the bed spoke. “How long?”

Upon hearing the question, Thalia turned to look at him. “I don't know.”
