Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 376

After watching Denise leave, Benjamin spoke. “Once Denise learns about this, she'll definitely get angry!”

“It's fine even if she's angry. It's better than her taking a risk with us!” Anthony replied.

“Yeah! As long as she's doing well, everything's fine.”

Anthony turned to his brother. “Oh yeah, the shipment needs to go out tonight. Thalia will pick me up later. Will you be going?”

Gears were turning in Benjamin's mind. “Tonight? Is it that urgent? Are we going to make it for tonight's flight?”

“The trade is set at midnight while the boarding time is three in the morning. If I go there immediately after things have concluded, we'll make it in time!”

Benjamin’s eyebrows furrowed when he heard that. “In that case, let’s go together.”

Anthony nodded as both of them walked back in.

“Those people are still at Glenport City. If we make our move, aren't you

afraid they'll target us?” Benjamin questioned.

“Without Nat's matter, we could've taken things slower. However, we don't have much time to spare. We can only find her after we have taken care of our matter. Besides, we don't know what arrangements Thalia has made yet, so we have no choice but to deal with this first.”

“Understood!”

“Let's meet Gramps and Greatgrandpa first. We'll keep them company and ask them for advice!”

Benjamin nodded as they headed to their destination together.

Natasha was currently inside a five-star hotel in Dellmoor, Spaunia.

A computer was sitting in front of her as her fingers danced on the keyboard. Lines of green code flashed across the black screen before the screen changed. A rectangular bar appeared, and it displayed progress in terms of increasing percentages.

As she stared at the screen, her phone rang.

She picked it up, saw the number, and answered the call.

Instead of speaking, she waited for the other person to say something first.

“It’s me, Ms. Watson.” Boss' voice was heard.

She was stunned for a second before she put the phone on the table and switched it to speaker mode. Then she typed something on the computer, causing the images on the screen to change again.

“Ms. Watson?”

Natasha looked away and answered, “I'm sorry, the signal wasn't great earlier. Now I can hear your voice. Please continue.”

It was obvious Boss didn't buy it. “I’ve already arrived at the hotel and am waiting for you, Ms. Watson. When are you going to meet me? I think some things are better discussed face-to-face.”

“I'm still considering it!”

“What is there to consider?”

“How do I know you don't have any ulterior motives?”

Boss was taken aback. “Didn't I already tell you my motives?” “How do I know you're not lying?” It was beyond his expectations that Natasha would question him like that. “Then what should I do to make you believe me?”

“That’s your problem to solve. You should show me something to gain my trust.” She continued tapping on the computer. Soon, the screen displayed a red dot. Upon seeing the dot's position, she typed on the keyboard again. Moments later, the surveillance footage of the inside of a hotel appeared on her screen.

When she saw that, she slumped backward and grabbed her phone. Turning off the speaker mode, she put it next to her ear.

“You don't trust me, Ms. Watson?”
