Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 344

Seemingly prepared for this question, Natasha replied, “At Baykeep. The company is in collaboration with one of the organizations over there. I'm going over there to follow up with them.”

“How long will you be gone for?”

“At the moment, I'm planning to stay there for a few days. It depends on the progress of the discussion. I might need to stay there for a few more days,” Natasha answered.

Terence's eyebrows furrowed when he heard that. “Why does your job require you to go on business trips?”

“As long as I’m working, there will always be a possibility that I'll have to go on business trips, Grandpa.”

With his brows still knitted into a tight knot, Terence was worried about her.

Liam, who was standing by the side, piped up, “Terence, Nat is already an adult. Why are you still so worried about her? She even lived abroad for a few years. She's just going on a business trip. There's no need to be so worried about her.” “So what if I want to worry about her?

It's none of your business,” Terence retorted.

“I'm just giving you advice. I'm not interfering in your life,” Liam said good-naturedly.

Terence ignored Liam and instead turned to look at Natasha.

“Remember to take care of yourself. Call us if anything comes up,” he advised her.

Natasha smiled softly. “I will, Grandpa.”

“Okay, that's enough. Hurry up and dig your pits,” Liam urged Terence.

Terence rolled his eyes. He stopped bickering with Liam and continued working.

Kenneth then walked back to Natasha's side after ending the call. Looking at Natasha who was eating her food, he smiled. “How are you feeling? Does your stomach feel better?”

Natasha nodded. “Yes. I feel much better.”

Out of a sudden, Kenneth moved closer to her and whispered in her ear, “I shouldn't have let you drink so much yesterday.”

Natasha did not reply, but her ears turned slightly red.

Kenneth's lips curled into a small smile, and he sat opposite her.

Gentleness filled his eyes as he gazed adoringly at her.

Remaining silent, Natasha continued eating. When she looked up, she locked eyes with Kenneth, who was staring at her with intense affection.

“Aren't you going to the office today?” Natasha broke the silence.

“I am,” Kenneth replied.

“What time?” Natasha asked.

“Why? You want to go?” he asked as he stared at her.

“I want to go to the office, too. I'm just thinking of hitching a ride with you.”

Noticing how reserved she was, Kenneth narrowed his eyes and pondered for a moment before replying, “Would you be ready to go if we leave now?”

Natasha froze for a second. “Sure. But I'll need to get changed.”

Kenneth glanced at the time. “Okay.

We'll leave in half an hour.”

Natasha nodded.

When Liam and Terence heard their conversation, both of them frowned simultaneously.

“Are you leaving, Nat?”

“Yes. I need to go to the office. Grandpa, Old Mr. Hamilton, I'll pay you two a visit a few days later,” Natasha replied.

Liam nodded at that. “Okay.”

Terence couldn't help but remind her again, “Nat... No matter what, you must take care of yourself. Remember to call me.”

“I will, Grandpa.” Natasha smiled.

Even though he was still worried about his granddaughter, Terence knew that young people still needed their own space.

“Okay, go on ahead,” Terence said solemnly.

Natasha looked at her grandfather with a conflicted look in her eyes. In the end, she composed herself and nodded her head solemnly. She then got up to go get changed.

Kenneth, too, looked at the elderly duo. “I'll get going as well, Grandpa, Old Mr. Watson.”
