Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 331

The next day arrived.

After a few days of packing, the day to move finally rolled by.

Nevertheless, they did not have many things to bring along, for Natasha was not moving. Hence, the three children and Terence only packed their clothes and the essentials.

Downstairs, when Anthony saw that everything was in the truck, he turned to Natasha and said, “Nat, are you really not going to move with us?”

Natasha gave the children a smile upon seeing their worried looks. “I'm closer to work here. If I move with you, I'll have to wake up an hour earlier. Do you think that I'll be able to wake in time?”

“But I'm worried to leave you here alone...” Anthony started.

Benjamin nodded as well. “That's right. Nat, why don’t you move with us?”

“Yes, Nat, if you stay here, what am I going to do when I miss you?” Denise whined softly.

Natasha felt bad to see the children reluctant to leave. After all, it was their first time leaving her side. How could she possibly be all right with letting them move away from her?

However, settling them down in a good spot was something she had to do.

Therefore, she recomposed herself and flashed them another smile. “Haven't you moved some of my things there? I'll come and stay for a while whenever I'm free.”

“But I've never left you for so long before!” Denise cried out.

“That’s why it's time for you to learn to be independent and grow up,”

Natasha told her.

As Denise looked at her, she said, “Nat, have you made a mistake? It's not that we're not independent, but that we're worried about you. What are you going to do without us taking care of you?”

Her words rendered Natasha speechless.

Huh, she's actually making sense.

“Still, it's not as if I can't take care of myself at all, so don't worry.”

“Nat...”

“All right, the things are in the car already. The movers are waiting for you,” Natasha urged.

It was only then the children clamped their mouths shut.

“All right, all right. You're just moving. It's not as if you'll never see each other again,” Terence interrupted.

He then looked at Natasha. Although he, too, was filled with worry, he knew that Natasha had the ability to take care of herself. After all, she did that when she was overseas for those few years.

What he should be doing was share some of the weight on her shoulders and take care of the three children.

Right then, Terence called out, “Nat.”

Natasha turned to him. “Grandpa.”

“It's the moving day today, so come to the manor for a celebratory dinner tonight and stay there for the night. That way, the kids will be at ease,” he continued.

Upon hearing that, the three children fervently nodded and looked at Natasha, thrilled.

It seemed like they were not going to give up on persuading her to move until she actually stayed for a few nights with them.

Thus, Natasha inclined her head. “Okay. I'll come over after work tonight.”

The three little ones let out simultaneous sighs of relief. “Nat, we'll be waiting for you then!”

“Of course. See you tonight!”

After a while of bidding reluctant farewells, the children went into the car and headed to the manor.

Once they were gone, Natasha readied herself to hail a cab to head to work. However, when she turned around, she was greeted by the sight of Thalia.

The moment she saw Thalia, she said, “It's been a while.”

“Are you about to go to work?”

Natasha nodded.

“Great timing. It's on the way, so I’ll give you a ride,” Thalia offered.

Natasha took up the offer and nodded in response.

On their way there, Thalia said, “I heard from Anthony that Thea turned herself in.”

Natasha inclined her head in response.

“Good to see the evil getting punished,” Thalia remarked.

Natasha did not think much about it. However, she glanced at the driving woman and said, “Anthony moved to the manor. What about you? Are you planning to keep staying here?”

Thalia tensed up for a moment. She never thought that Natasha would be so straightforward.
