Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 298

Denise stayed at the hospital for one more day. She was only discharged after the doctors confirmed that everything was all right with her.

Kenneth drove her home. On their way back, he stole furtive glances at the rearview mirror and noticed that Denise was clinging onto Natasha like a koala bear.

“Nat, you have not hugged me like this for a long time,” Denise cooed.

“Well, I could say the same for you,” Natasha said.

“I'm sick, so I need a lot of hugs to feel better.”

Natasha knew that it was the comfort and sense of security of having Kenneth around that made Denise

feel so at ease.

Her lips curled into a smile at the realization. She held Denise tighter into her embrace and said, “All right. Plenty of hugs for you!”

It had been a long time since Denise had acted in such a pettish manner to Natasha. The little girl smiled in contentment and noticed that Kenneth was staring at them from the rearview mirror. “Daddy, are you jealous that I get these hugs from Nat?”

Natasha lifted her gaze, and Kenneth's gaze coincidentally met hers as well. The two locked eyes with each other, and there was an inexplicably ambiguous tension hanging in the air.

Natasha averted her gaze, breaking the tension.

Kenneth's lips curled into a grin as he

said, “Yes, I am very jealous.”

Denise raised a brow. Is Daddy playing along with me now?

She grinned and continued to tease him, “Are you jealous that Mommy is getting hugs from me, or are you jealous that I'm the one getting hugs from Mommy?”

“Is there a difference?” Natasha asked.

“Of course there is!” Denise said and turned to Kenneth.

He immediately replied, “Of course I'm jealous of you getting to hug Mommy like that.”

Denise pouted. “Daddy, you've changed...”

Kenneth chuckled. Then he turned to look at Natasha with an enigmatic glint in his eyes.

Natasha did not deign to reply to them. She merely stared out the window and pretended as if she did not understand what they were saying.

Meanwhile, at home, Anthony was chatting online with Kyle.

Anthony: Vermillion Base? This organization's name sure is weird.

Kyle: Don't they sound like a bunch of rebels?

Anthony: Yes, that's exactly it!

Kyle: Even though the organization has seen better days, they're still not to be taken lightly. I heard that they're doing some kind of transactions lately. A batch of goods will be in transit right at Glenport City.

Anthony's eyes narrowed as he replied: Glenport City?

Kyle: Yep!

Anthony stared at the computer screen and fell into deep thought.

Kyle had a bad feeling when he noticed Anthony's silence. He replied: Don't you dare tell me you have something weird planned!

Anthony read the message and replied: Wow, you can read minds now.

Kyle: Right. You'd better stop with that nonsense. You 're going to start a war if you stop the transit of the batch ofgoods.

Anthony: Who said I was going to stop their transit?

Kyle: Then what are you planning to do?

Anthony: I haven't got a hint myself. I'll see how it goes.

Kyle: Anthony, I'm not kidding. They're not ordinary people, and they have no mercy toward others. If they find out about this, they will get rid of you right then and there!

Anthony: Now that you've put it this way, I definitely have to go check it out myself

Kyle was lost for words.

So it's true then, what they say about men, that they have an innate sense to conquer and rebel. Telling men not to do something will only result in them doing the exact opposite.
