Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 286

While Denise was eating the oatmeal unwillingly, Anthony and Benjamin returned.

As soon as they walked in, they hurried to Denise.

“Denise, you're awake!”

“Denise, how are you feeling? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”

Anthony and Benjamin asked in unison.

However, Denise merely looked at them glumly and continued eating her food.

Anthony and Benjamin were confused by her behavior. Frowning, they turned to Natasha and asked, “What's up with Denise, Nat?”

Natasha looked at the little girl on the bed, who was eating her food, and Kenneth, who was spoiling Denise by feeding her. She said, “It's nothing. She's just being picky.”

“Did the doctor give her diet restrictions?” asked Anthony.

Natasha nodded.

Right then, an idea came to Benjamin. Looking at Denise, he leaned over and whispered into her ear, “I'll get you some good food.”

Denise's eyes lit up when she heard that.

Benjamin quickly shot her a look, telling her to stay calm. Seeing that, Denise hurriedly recollected herself.

“You're the best, Ben,” Denise replied in a low voice.

Although Kenneth could not hear what they were talking about, he could roughly guess the content of their conversation. “What's wrong? Am I not treating you well enough?”

“Hmph, you don't love me enough!” Denise retorted, pouting unhappily.

“If that's the case, I'll tell your mommy what you guys were whispering about just now.” Kenneth pretended to threaten them.

“Daddy!” Denise frowned and looked at him in frustration.

Kenneth chuckled. “All right, I was just teasing you. Don't eat too much later, okay? Your mommy is doing this for your own good.”

Denise grinned. “Yes, Daddy. I'll only have a little.”

Kenneth's eyes were filled with

affection as he looked at her.

After eating half of the oatmeal, Denise announced she was full. However, her intentions were very obvious.

Natasha exchanged glances with Anthony, but neither of them exposed the little girl.

Anthony and Benjamin were relieved to see that Denise was alive and well.

However, Denise was still a little weak. After having some food, she lay back down and swiftly fell asleep.

When Natasha was busy tucking Denise in, Anthony shot Kenneth a glance before turning to leave the room.

Knowing Anthony had something to say to him, Kenneth walked out as well.

Natasha narrowed her eyes and stopped whatever she was doing.

At the corridor outside, Anthony fixed his eyes on Kenneth and hesitated for a moment before saying, “Thalia and I went looking for that person just now.

Kenneth stared at him. “And?”

“That person is a part-time actor. Someone ordered him to attack Denise,” Anthony said.

Upon hearing that, Kenneth narrowed his eyes. The way Anthony had called him out to have a conversation in private and how he had said those things placed a thought in Kenneth's mind. It's someone I know!

That thought was not a question; it was a statement.

Without saying anything, Anthony fished out his phone and tapped on a section of surveillance footage before handing it to Kenneth.

“I think you should recognize this person by just seeing the back.”

Kenneth took the phone from Anthony. When he saw the person in the video, his eyes darkened.

“I could have actually settled this on my own, but then I figured it's better to let you deal with this. Technically, you're involved with this person as well,” Anthony said.

Kenneth returned the phone to Anthony. He looked at the latter with a vicious smile on his lips. “You've made the right decision. Indeed, I should be the one handling this

. . )) matter.

Seeing the eerie smile on his face, Anthony knew Kenneth would make the right decision.

Right then, Kenneth walked up and patted Anthony on the head. “Tell your mommy I'm going home to get changed. I'll be back soon.”

Anthony nodded in response.

Kenneth smiled and turned around to leave.
