Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 155

Natasha remained silent as Kenneth stared at her.

The longer her silence was, the more worried he got.

“Did you fall in love with him?” Kenneth urged. His gaze had dimmed considerably.

Natasha met his gaze unflinchingly.

“Kenneth, this has nothing to do with you.”

“You refused to answer my question. Was that a silent acquiescent?” Kenneth refused to give up just yet.

His heart was racing, and he tried hard to tamp down his discomfort.

“Suit yourself.” Natasha didn't want to waste her time and spun on her heels to leave.

To her surprise, Kenneth grabbed her wrist. “Natasha!”

The pain that flared up her wrist made her wince in pain.

Sensing her discomfort, Kenneth shot her a worried glance. “What happened to your hand?”

Before she could reply, he rolled her sleeves up.

There was a bruise on her wrist.

Kenneth's brows puckered up in concern. “What happened?”

Natasha yanked her arm out of his grip. “I'm fine,” she insisted.

Obviously, he didn't believe what she said.

Her complexion, her reaction, and the bruise on her wrist proved that something was up.

“If you refuse to spill the truth, I'll bring you to the hospital for a checkup.” Kenneth made to drag her out of the hotel.

Natasha's energy was spent, and she didn't want to start an argument with him.

However, she knew he wouldn't give up until he achieved his goal.

She promptly made up an excuse. “I'm fine, really. I twisted my wrist when I fought with Gary that day.”

Her reply was partly true, so Kenneth cast her a dubious look. “Is that so?”

Natasha nodded and gazed at him earnestly. “Yes, of course.”

“Why didn't you say anything back then after getting hurt?” Kenneth chided.

Despite saying that, he couldn't help but feel bad for her.

Natasha found that strange.

“It isn't that important, anyway.” Natasha massaged her wrist before sticking her hand into her pocket casually.

Their gazes met.

In a flash, the atmosphere turned awkward.

Natasha broke the silence by saying, “I'm exhausted. I'll head home and get some rest.”

“I'll give you a ride home,” Kenneth offered.

“It's fine. I'll take a taxi myself.” Natasha

turned him down at once.

“You allowed Zachary to give you a ride but turned me down?” Kenneth asked. He was on the brink of losing his temper.

Natasha was speechless.

Why is he comparing himself to Zachary? What should I say?

As she said nothing, Kenneth said, “Come on.” He then strode out of the hotel.

Natasha had no choice but to follow him out.

Kenneth was about to get into the driver's seat when Natasha said, “You're injured. Let me drive.”

Hearing that, Kenneth halted in his tracks. He had no idea whether she was showing her concern for him, but that didn't stop him from relaxing slightly.

His gaze swept over her as he replied, “It's fine. I can still drive.”

He got into the driver's seat. Natasha also got into the car after him.
