Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 131

Nevertheless, the implication of Kenneth's words was evident to everyone present.

Terence couldn't possibly fail to understand the situation. After all, Kenneth had been keeping watch at the hospital for the past few days, refusing to leave. Coupled with the fact that he was lying on the hospital bed because of Natasha, and his intentions were clear as day.

Although he was undoubtedly thankful to Kenneth about that matter, he wasn't so moved that he would tacitly entrust his granddaughter to him once more.

While emotional damage wasn't physical, it was still very much real.

No one knew whether Kenneth would revert back to a scumbag one day. Thus, Terence definitely wouldn't forgive him so easily.

As though reading the man's mind, Liam hastily changed the subject. “Okay, that's enough, Terence. Most importantly, Nat is fine, right? That's the main point here!”

Terence retracted his gaze and shifted it to Liam. Wariness shone in his eyes.

He's a cunning fox. After so many years, he knows my thoughts all too well!

“What an old geezer!” he muttered.

Surprisingly, Liam wasn't enraged. Instead, he leaned close to the man with a wide grin. “Let me tell you this, Terence. I'm in a good mood today, so I'm not going to take any offense to your words. No matter what you say, I won't be angered!”

At that, Terence studied him dubiously. What does he mean?

Beaming from ear to ear, Liam proclaimed, “I'm now the same as you, also recognized as their biological great-grandfather!”

At the thought that Natasha had admitted to it, he no longer had to restrain himself and conceal his affection for the children.

The mere thought of it filled him with the urge to guffaw aloud.

As he spoke, something occurred to him. He added, “I'm their biological paternal great-grandfather while you're their maternal great-grandfather. I'm closer to them! Heh!”

The moment Terence heard that, his brows furrowed. “What do you mean by that, Liam? Back when I told you about them, you promised not to snatch them away from me. What's the meaning of this now?”

“Things are different now! Back then, you were the one who told me. Now, however, it was Nat who admitted to it personally. I don't have to restrain myself and feign ignorance anymore!” Liam couldn't help the wide smile that split his face.

In a flash, Terence swung his gaze to Natasha. “You admitted to it, Nat?”

Natasha said nothing.

Now that things have come to this, it's obviously unrealistic to keep it a secret anymore. But well, seeing the two of them bicker is really... exasperating!

“Hey, don't blame Nat. This had nothing to do with her!” Liam even defended Natasha.

When Terence heard that, he grew all the more chagrined. “I'm chastising my granddaughter, so why are you butting in? You've got ulterior motives, Liam!” “Nonsense!”

“Not only do you want to steal my greatgrandchildren, but you even want to steal my granddaughter?”

Truth be told, that was precisely Liam's wish from the depths of his heart. He really thought so, but he didn't dare give voice to it.

Nonetheless, at the sight of the grin on the man's face, Terence knew that he had hit the nail on the head.

Even if Natasha has admitted to it, I haven't agreed to it!

Pinning his eyes on Liam, he declared battle on him right then and there. “What's the meaning of this, Liam? Are you trying to steal the kids from the Watson family now? D-Do you have any morals?”

Seeing that the man was panicked, Liam countered logically, “How am I immoral? Are the kids yours alone? Besides, Nat has already admitted to it, so why are you getting mad?” “I'm simply mad! Let me tell you that the kids belong to the Watson family! They all have the last name of Watson, not Hamilton!”

“H-How unreasonable!” Liam shot daggers at Terence.

“Furthermore, how has the Hamilton family contributed in any way? Yet, you want to acknowledge them now, calling yourself their biological paternal greatgrandfather? So what? Their maternal great-grandfather doesn't agree to it!” Terence was all fired up when it came to bandying words.
