Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 340

Huh? I thought it'd be tricky to persuade Natasha. It never occurred to me that shed suddenly agree and entrust them to me. I didn't bother much about it at first, but now, I have to admit that I feel the weight of responsibility. This is probably what she wants. She wants me to remember her warning clearly and take this matter seriously.

With that thought in mind, Thalia looked at Natasha. “You're entrusting the triplets to me... Do you trust me that much?”

Natasha nodded.

“Why?” asked Thalia.

Natasha arched an eyebrow. “It's probably because... I know you well.”

“Know me well... You're saying that you know me well?” Thalia repeated questioningly.

“Yeah.” Natasha nodded.

“How can that be...” Thalia began with a laugh. Turning to Natasha, she noticed the latter's extraordinarily resolute gaze. It did not seem as though she was joking.

“We haven't spent much time together, so how could you know me well?” she queried.

Natasha looked at her, enunciating each word slowly and clearly as she replied, “That's because I know how to read minds.”

Thalia stared at her blankly for several seconds.

“Read minds?” she echoed doubtfully.

Looking solemn, Natasha simply nodded.

“Are such things actually real?” Thalia did not sound convinced.

Natasha looked at her directly and responded, “Why not? Mind reading is also a type of psychology. It's just that it goes under a different name. Those with a higher plane of consciousness can read people through their minds.”

Thalia stared at her for a long time, dumbfounded.

Perhaps because of Natasha's personality, she did not appear to be someone who would lie. Hence, Thalia actually started to believe her.

More importantly, if this is true, that'd explain why I always get chills in my heart whenever I see her. Every time she looks at me, it feels as though she can see right through me. Mind reading, eh?I see...

While those thought were running through Thalia's mind, Anthony walked over.

He leaned in and looked at the two ladies as he asked, “What are the two of you chatting about?”

Natasha smiled as she gazed at him. “Nothing. We're just talking about random stuff. Why haven't you gone to rest?”

“Oh, I wanted to talk to Thalia about something,” he answered.

Natasha glanced at Thalia, then nodded. “Go on, then.”

“What about you, Nat?”

“I'll go back to my room and turn in after I finish this glass,” she replied, swirling her glass of wine.

Anthony nodded. “Goodnight, then. Sweet dreams.”

“Okay.”

With that, Anthony shot Thalia a look. The latter returned to her senses and left with him.

As they walked away, Thalia looked a little absent-minded.

“What's gotten into you?” Anthony enquired.

Thalia turned to him and frowned. “Anthony, why didn't you tell me earlier about your mother's ability to read minds?”

Anthony was stunned. “Read minds?”

“Yeah!” Thalia responded, then let out a long sigh. “And here I was, puzzling over why I always had an indescribable sense of guilt every time I saw her. Now, I finally understand why.”

He paused for a moment before asking, “Did she tell you that?”

“That’s right.”
