Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 1093

“Anthony!” Thalia looked at him, her eyes slightly squinted, a bright light shining in their depths.

Immediately, Anthony sensed something and looked at her with a vigilant gaze. “What's up?”

“What do you think?” Thalia raised an eyebrow, her eyes full of knowing.

“I said... What did I say?” Anthony feigned ignorance, completely avoiding the topic.

“Stop playing dumb. You're so smart. How could you not understand what I mean?” Thalia asked with a laugh.

Upon hearing this, Anthony lazily crossed his arms. “I've been seriously sleep-deprived lately, so my brain really isn't functioning well...”

“Anthony, it's really about time you use that brain of yours!” Thalia teased.

Anthony's lips curled up slightly when he heard those words. “Well, there's nothing I can do!”

Thalia glanced at him. “Anthony, out of all the things you could learn from Kyle, you had to pick up this one. You've truly mastered the art of becoming stingier the richer you get!”

Upon hearing this, Anthony immediately denied it. “What are you talking about? I don't have any money. I'm broke!”

“Gosh! Who was it just now in that room, saying that money is just a number to them? You were acting all high and mighty just a moment ago, and now, why have you suddenly become poor?” Thalia teased.

“You've said it's all about acting, so naturally, it has to be convincing. Would you believe me if I were to brag?” Anthony leaned comfortably against the back of the chair, bantering with her.

Hearing that, Thalia glanced at him through the rearview mirror. “Anthony, others may not understand you, but don't I? Even if I don't know the exact amount you earn, don't I have a rough idea?”

“Oh? How much do I earn, then?” Anthony retorted.

“You—” Thalia was at a loss for words for a moment, then finally said after a while, “I know you have much more, much more than me!”

Anthony laughed, his palm-sized face surprisingly exuding an indescribable sense of maturity.

“I don't care. Whatever Kyle can't provide me, you have to make up for!” Thalia said outright.

Upon hearing this, Anthony slightly turned his body, his gaze shifting forward. “No. This is a matter between you and Kyle. What does it have to do with me?”

“He wouldn't admit that this was the mission, so did I run around for nothing?”

“Are we now charging for the bond between us?”

“Even blood brothers settle their accounts clearly. I used to let things slide with you, but now, no. From now on, I do everything in vain. If Kyle doesn't pay, you'll have to make up for it!” Thalia stated directly.

Although it was indeed the case, Anthony was still somewhat curious. “No, you've also earned quite a bit. I've never heard you mention it before. Why are you asking for money now?”

“Times have changed!”

“What are the changes?”

“Before, I was alone, so it didn't matter where I lived or what I ate. However, things have changed now...” As she spoke, Thalia couldn't help but let a smile creep onto her lips, her eyes filled with anticipation for the future.

Anthony was rendered speechless. At this point in the conversation, how could I not understand what those words mean?

He sighed helplessly, looking at her. “Spencer earns more. You don't need to worry about supporting the family, do you?”

Thalia pursed her lips. “It's not the same. What if there's more than just the two of us in the future?”

“More than two of you? Even if you had a whole brood of children, it would be enough to sustain you for ten generations!”

A brood of children? A broader smile spread across Thalia's face when she heard those words. However, as she pondered over them, she sensed something was amiss. Looking at the person behind her through the rearview mirror, she retorted, “What are you talking about? A whole brood of children? Do you take me for a pig?”

With a smile, Anthony asked, “What's the matter? Don't you want a big family?”

“I certainly don't want to have that many. I'll have three at most,” Thalia said, looking at Anthony. “Just like the three of you!”

With a helpless glance at her, Anthony asked, “Do you know what you look like to me right now?”
