Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 197

At that moment, Natasha remarked, “You guys should go on ahead. I'm heading home first.”

Liam, who was laughing heartily a moment ago, turned toward her upon hearing her words. “Nat, why don't you come with us? There're plenty of rooms at home.”

“Even then, that’s still the Hamilton residence, Old Mr. Hamilton. I'll just be going back to my home,” Natasha insisted.

Her words poured cold water on their plan.

Old Mr. Hamilton invited the children over because they are members of the Hamilton family. As for Grandpa, both of them are old friends. However, there doesn't seem to be a reason for me to be there. After all, my divorce from Kenneth is laid bare for everyone to see.

Natasha was still cognizant of where to draw the line.

At that moment, Liam hinted to Kenneth by throwing him a glance. Unexpectedly, Kenneth suggested, “Grandpa, why don't you and Old Mr. Watson bring the kids home first. In the meantime, I'll send Nat home.”

Liam's brows furrowed at once. That's not what I meant!

He then turned toward the children and gave them a knowing look, hoping that they would help persuade Natasha. However, no one knew Natasha's temperament better than them. Anything she said was done so after careful consideration. There was nothing anyone can say to change her mind.

Sitting still, none of the children dared to utter a word.

After all, letting them go to the Hamilton residence was already a significant concession on Natasha's part.

When he saw that the children remained quiet, Liam was at his wits' end.

It looks like no one dares to challenge Nat's authority!

Meanwhile, Terence swept his gaze at

Kenneth, for he recognized what the latter's intention was.

Even though Kenneth did well earlier, it doesn't mean that I have forgiven him.

Terence suggested, “Why don't I go home with you?”

“Gramps!” Pouting, Denise gave his hand a tug. She made a face as if to stop him from leaving.

Wrinkling his brows, Terence fell into a dilemma.

At the same time, Kenneth threw a faint smile at Denise. Mmm-hmm, that's my girl. Her timing is impeccable.

He then shifted his gaze to Benjamin and Anthony.

Forget it, I should be glad that they didn't get in my way.

Subsequently, Kenneth remarked, “Old Mr. Watson, don't worry. I'll definitely send Natasha home safely.”

Before Terence could respond, Liam swiftly

added, “That's right. Let him do it. Anyway, we should head back now, just as you have promised the children. On top of that, I'm still waiting to beat you a few rounds in chess!”

Liam's thoughts couldn't be more transparent to Terence.

Rolling his eyes, Terence ranted in exasperation, “Damn it, don't think I don't know what's going through that mind of

99 yours.

“I... I don't have any ulterior motives at all,” Liam mumbled. There's no way I can admit to it.

Terence gave Kenneth a disapproving look before fixing his gaze on Natasha.

“Grandpa, don't worry. I'm not a child. I know what I'm doing,” Natasha reassured him.

“Did you hear what Nat said? You should quit worrying for once,” Liam persuaded him.

After pondering a moment, Terence let out a sigh. “Fine, just be careful.” He then threw

Kenneth another look. The implicit warning in his eyes couldn't be any more obvious.

“All right now, let's go,” Liam hurried them up, worried that he would end up with none of them coming home with him.

Just before they left, Anthony walked up to Natasha. “Nat...”

The latter smiled slightly at him. “Be good and take care of Gramps and Greatgrandpa, do you understand?”
