Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 236

After the deliveryman left, Natasha's phone rang.

Her colleagues stared at her, seemingly sensing the caller's identity as they regarded Natasha teasingly.

“Wow!”

“That must be Mr. Hamilton calling, right?” someone uttered playfully.

“You all are too nosy!” Natasha walked toward the pantry with her phone after saying that.

She answered the call after seeing no one else was around, “Hello.”

“Did you receive the flowers? So, do you like them?” Kenneth's nonchalant voice sounded through the speaker after the call was connected.

Natasha leaned against the wall and drawled, “Tell me. Why are you doing this?” “Why am I doing this? I'm asserting my dominance, of course!” he replied.

“Dominance?”

“Those three guys seem pretty close . 99

to you.

Natasha thought her coworkers were just making a joke. Unexpectedly, Kenneth really did witness that scene.

She curled her lips in amusement. “Mr. Hamilton, could you possibly be jealous?”

The tone of his voice sounded hoarser. “I do not consider this as an act of jealousy. Still, I must let them know that you are already taken and belong to someone, so they shouldn't even think of coveting you.”

Kenneth's words were laced with a strong sense of possessiveness.

Natasha's eyes gleamed as she smirked. “Oh? What do you mean? To whom do I belong?”

“You're mine, sooner or later,” he answered domineeringly.

Natasha fell silent for a few moments.

Her eyes shone brilliantly, reflecting the rays of sunlight filtering through the window.

“Why aren't you saying anything?” Kenneth asked.

“It's nothing. I have some things to do now. Bye.” With that, she directly hung up the call without waiting for him to reply.

A gleeful look flashed across Natasha's eyes as she stared at her phone. Then, her lips curved into a contented smile. She kept her phone in her pocket, turned around, and exited the pantry.

Meanwhile, Anthony and Benjamin accompanied Terence to shop at the supermarket.

While Terence was carefully selecting the groceries, Anthony and Benjamin were exchanging glances behind their great-grandfather's back, seemingly able to communicate without saying a word.

Suddenly, Terence turned his head around and saw them gesturing silently at one another with their eyes. He could not help but ask, “What are you two doing?”

Anthony quickly regained his senses and grinned at Terence. “It's nothing.”

Benjamin smiled as well. “We are discussing what to buy...” Then, he strode forward cheerfully. “Gramps, do you still need us to buy anything else?” “We should be almost done after purchasing some fresh fruits.”

“Fruits, you say? I think the fruits are placed over there. I'll accompany you to choose them,” Benjamin offered.

Terence beamed as they walked together toward the fruits section. Anthony trailed closely behind them.

Anthony and Benjamin paced around Terence while the latter took his time selecting the fruits.

“Gramps...”

“Yes?”

“Are you still in a hurry to let Nat find a boyfriend?” Anthony asked.

Hearing that, Terence glanced at him. “Why do you ask?”

“Aren't you anxious about that matter previously? I sense that you are no longer as impatient these days, so I decided to ask you.”

Terence closed his eyes for a few seconds. Then, he continued picking the fruits. “This matter cannot be rushed.”

“Actually, I can see that Daddy is very dedicated toward Nat recently,”

Benjamin piped up as well.

At the mention of Kenneth, Terence immediately vaguely figured out the kids' intentions.
