Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 208

Kenneth narrowed his eyes. “Do you mean to let her do it on her own?”

Natasha nodded.

Furrowing his brows, Kenneth protested in a reluctant tone, “But she's still just a child. Even if you can bring yourself to allow it and I agree to it, Grandpa would definitely object. There's plenty about the entertainment industry that you don't know about that I'm familiar with.

Underneath the glamorous surface is a dog-eat-dog world.”

“I might not know the entertainment industry well, but I'm well aware that no career is ever easy. Since money and power matter a lot in the industry, it's easier for Denise to maintain her principles, for she doesn't covet them and naturally won't be distracted. But if you shelter her from the very beginning, she will grow used to being pampered. So unless you can be by her side, protecting her for eternity, please close ranks with me,” Natasha asserted.

Furrowing his brows, Kenneth, despite his reluctance, couldn't deny the truth in Natasha's words.

Even though he might always be able to shelter her, while the wealth of Hamilton Corporation would ensure that she would always live in luxury, it was true that it was impossible for him to be by her side at every single moment.

Holding that thought, he turned his gaze to Denise. Just thinking about her being part of a place like the entertainment industry broke his heart.

“Denise, what do you think?” Kenneth asked.

After dwelling upon the question, she answered, “Tony has said before that we can only protect those around us when we're strong. Even though I do want both of you to protect me, I hope more than anything to protect both of you one day.”

Kenneth had barely heard her words when his eyes narrowed.

“As a result, I feel that Mommy is right. Mommy, I would like to stand on my own two feet,” Denise declared.

Subsequently, Kenneth reached out to stroke her head. Despite the knowledge that it was for her own good, he still felt a stinging heartache, as she was, after all, his daughter.

Even though he couldn't deny his reluctance, he did acknowledge that Natasha was right—Denise could only mature by being independent.

With that thought in mind, Kenneth informed her of his decision. “All right then, I'll support you in whatever you want to do. But just remember, as long as someone upsets you, you must tell me about it.”

Although he wouldn't interfere with her progress, anyone who had the intention to bully her was welcome to try.

They would definitely not be let off with just a warning.

Daddy...

The sight of Kenneth filled Denise with warmth.

Is this what it feels like to have a Daddy? This is

amazing!

Looking at Kenneth with eyes that sparkled as brightly as the stars, Denise nodded with conviction. “Mmm-hmm, I know.”

Kenneth, with his face brimming with affection, stroked her head in response.

When she saw how enamored Kenneth was with his daughter, Natasha couldn't help but comment, “Since she's just exploring the matter, it doesn't necessarily mean that she would become an actress. Perhaps she might end up realizing that she has no interest in it at all. Therefore, don't let your imagination run wild.”

“That would be for the best. In such an event, she should return and take over the family business instead,” Kenneth suggested.

Natasha was speechless.

“What about Tony and Ben?” Denise inquired cheekily.

It was only then that Kenneth remembered his two sons.

After pondering for a fleeting moment, he replied, “They're the ones who should be venturing out on their own. It would be great if they could make something of themselves. Otherwise, all you need to do is to make sure that they don't go hungry. Everything else will still be yours!”

Denise was ecstatic to hear the answer, not because she was going to inherit most of the wealth, but because she was the apple of her father's eye.

Hmm, I'm Daddy's favorite!

All this while, she had been the one who was the most pampered at home. Now that she had a father, she realized that even more attention was being showered on her.

I'm truly blessed!

The smile on her face was so vibrant that it was brimming with glee.

Despite the indifferent look on her face, Natasha knew that she had made the right decision when she saw how delighted Denise was.
