Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 365

Noticing Thalia was on the verge of losing her temper, Anthony quickly said, “I'm just stating the facts. Don't get mad at me!”

“You just have to include something to insult me, didn’t you?” Thalia hissed.

Anthony smiled. “Come on. I'm used to it.”

Thalia scoffed, “Sure, you're the only one with brains here. You, your daddy, and your entire family are such crafty people.”

“Oh, you’re flattering me."

“Do you really think I'm praising you?”

“What else can it be?”

Suddenly, a dagger appeared at Anthony's throat, and Thalia stared at him with her pretty eyes. “No matter how smart you are, you can't possibly bring your laptop around with you all the time, right? Do you think your brain will be useful in this situation, or will my dagger slit your throat faster than you can think?”

There was a gleeful look on her face. Lowering his gaze, Anthony carefully pushed her dagger away. “There you go again. You should stop playing such tricks on people who are on your side.”

Thalia snorted and gently stroked her dagger lovingly. She then looked at him from the corner of her eye. “I'm just telling you, skills are more important when it comes to fulfilling your ambitions.”

“I never disagreed with that.”

“So? When are you planning to return to Darknetz with me?” Thalia eyed him.

Anthony pondered for a while and looked back at her. “I'll speak to Nat about this in the next few days.”

“You've decided?” Thalia's eyes sparkle with joy.

“It’s going to happen sooner or later, anyway. I'd rather get this done and over with as soon as possible."

“Smart!”

“So, you'd better sell those goods and settle your matters soon. We may start anytime.”

At the mention of her matters, Thalia lowered her head. “There's nothing to settle.”

Anthony arched a brow and said nothing else. Anyway, she knows what she's doing.

Just then, something popped into Thalia's mind. “Oh, right! Will you be going when the goods are sold?”

“Have you found a buyer?”

“I contacted one last night before I slept. That person will be coming over in two days.”

“So soon?”

“What now? Are you complaining?” “I'm just worried. Though the people of Vermillion Base are gone, the other gang is still around. If they're not gone, that means they're still eyeing the goods. Won't it be too risky to send off the goods in the next couple of days?”

“Well, there'll definitely be risks. I mean, what's not risky, anyway? Since you've decided to come back to Darknetz with me, then we've got to settle this quickly. There's nothing more important than this.”

Anthony knew Thalia's words made sense.

“I'm not worried about them. I'm worried about Daddy.”

“Kenneth Hamilton?”

“Exactly. He received the news last night and found out the goods have been stolen. I have no idea if he'll get involved in this matter.”

“That’s simple. We can just avoid him.”

“How?”

“Using the old trick, of course.”

Anthony looked at her in puzzlement.

“You mean...”

Thalia nodded.

Anthony mulled it over and nodded. “That’s right! That's a great idea!”

Upon hearing his acknowledgment, Thalia lifted her head proudly. “What do you think? Am I someone with brains now?”

Anthony flashed her a smile. “That's right. One is truly a product of the environment. You've gotten smarter after hanging out with me. Looks like hanging out with me wasn't a waste of time, after all. You have become smarter!”

Thalia was baffled. “There's something seriously wrong with the Hamilton family. Not only are you people crafty and foul-mouthed, but you're also narcissistic.”

“Excuse me. I'm a Watson. I'm from the Watson family,” Anthony said politely.
