Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 226

Natasha did not want to be a wet blanket, and she respected the old man's wish, so she stopped protesting.

Moreover, Natasha had also always doted on her three kids and gave them the best she could offer. She would have given them a memorable party if that was what they wanted.

The family enjoyed a good dinner together.

Although Terence was not too pleased with Kenneth, under the influence of that cordial atmosphere, he too, softened his attitude toward Kenneth.

Natasha and Terence stayed on for quite a while after dinner and spent the evening chatting with Liam till late.

Liam was disappointed when they finally got up and bid their goodbyes. He badly wanted to ask the Watsons to stay, but knowing how Natasha was, he resisted. He knew he had to give her more time and space to accept them again.

He knew Natasha was a strong-willed and principled woman, so it would take more than just some sweet-talking to win her heart back.

As Terence drove the family there, Kenneth did not have the chance to play the gentleman and send them home.

After Terence drove off with Natasha and the three kids, the Hamilton residence was once again empty and dead.

After watching the Watsons disappear into the darkness, Liam turned around and gave Kenneth a cold stare. “It is all your fault that I have to suffer such emotionally painful goodbyes at my age!” he chided Kenneth, then walked back to the hall and sat down gloomily on the couch.

Kenneth followed behind Liam and plonked himself down onto the couch lazily. He humored his grandfather by saying, “Yes, yes, it is all my fault. I promise you that soon, you will not have to watch them leave and wallow in sorrow anymore.”

Liam perked up immediately and looked expectantly at Kenneth. “You are making good progress with Nat?”

“Can't you tell?” Kenneth smiled proudly and said. He recalled all the interactions he had with Natasha earlier in the day, and although he could not be sure of her feelings for him, he was positive she had started to accept him and his approval rating was going up.

To him, that was a good start.

Seeing that dreamy look on Kenneth's face, Liam could not help but want to mock him. However, suddenly, the sweet image of Kenneth walking through the door with Natasha earlier in the day flashed before his eyes. He had to admit that the two were very compatible, and he began to look forward to getting regular visits from them in the future. The thought of such cozy family time warmed Liam's heart and brought a smile to his face. Worried that Kenneth would get over-confident, he suppressed the smile, put on a stern face, and warned, “Don't be fooled by Nat's nonchalant look. She is a highly principled woman and has a strong mind. You are getting this second chance solely because of the three kids, so don't be too full of yourself. If you don't treasure this opportunity, you will live to regret it.”

Kenneth frowned upon hearing that and grumbled, “Is that how you see me, Grandpa?” “Am I wrong to do so, given all the nonsense behavior you have shown?” Liam shot back, not about to cut him any slack.

“I did all that previously to show my displeasure at being forced into the marriage. How could you still insist on an arranged marriage at this time and age? It is not fair to force the two of us into a marriage without love. Actually, you have a responsibility in this messy affair as well!” Kenneth argued, but he added, “The situation is different now. When I fall in love with a woman, it will be forever!”

Liam gave him a mocking laugh and blurted out, “Do you think I have nothing better to do? If you had not pleaded to me when you were young and insisted that you wanted to marry Nat, do you think I would commit to this marriage agreement and...”

“What? What did you just say?” Kenneth looked up instantly and stared at Liam.
