Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 377

That night in Glenport City, Thalia's car stopped in front of the manor.

Benjamin and Anthony climbed into the vehicle. When she saw they were carrying a backpack each, her eyebrows furrowed. “What are you two...”

Once Anthony secured himself with the seatbelt, he turned to her. “I forgot to tell you, after tonight's business has concluded, Benjamin and I will be heading to Zaewora.”

A puzzled look formed on her face. “What?”

Benjamin stared at his brother with a darkened expression. “You didn't tell Thalia?”

“I was busy playing chess with Gramps and forgot.”

Thalia was still confused.

Benjamin nodded. “It's still not too late to tell her.”

Anthony turned to Thalia. “Do you have any other plans after tonight's business concludes?”

She shook her head with a puzzled expression. “No. I'm just waiting for you three.”

“After tonight’s business is concluded, Benjamin and I will head to Zaewora.'

Her eyebrows furrowed. “Why are you two going there?”

“Nat went there, and we're worried about her, so we're going to find her."

It was then she remembered something. “Oh yeah, I went to check your home, and no one was inside. Although, why did your mommy go to Zaewora?”

“It's a long story. In any case, we've already booked a flight heading there tonight.”

“Then what should I do?” “It depends on what you want to do. You can return to headquarters or stay at Glenport City.”

“Why should I stay here if you two aren't sticking around?”

“How about you leave with us, then?”

Thalia was about to say something when her eyes suddenly narrowed as she examined Anthony. “You already made all the plans and are waiting for me to agree, aren't you?”

“Do I look like that kind of person?” he asked seriously.

She snorted. “I think you know the answer.”

His eyes glinted as he raised them to meet hers. “Then, you—"

“There's no reason for me to stay here if you two are leaving. If I go back to headquarters, there's nothing for me to do either. I didn't find the person I was looking for, but if I can bring the three of you back, I'll consider that a success. Regardless if you're heading back to headquarters after this matter concludes, you should at least meet with Kyle.” “Sure.” “I’ll book my ticket then.” Thalia pulled out her phone.

“No need.” Benjamin abruptly spoke.

“What's wrong?” Her line of sight shifted to him.

His lips curved upward. “I've already booked one for you!”

Her gaze shifted back and forth between the boys silently.

“It was Tony's idea,” Benjamin added.

Anthony frowned as he looked at his brother. Before he could speak, Benjamin interjected, “I'm just telling

the truth.”

Thalia stared at the silent Anthony and sneered. “And you said you didn't plan for it. When are you going to stop manipulating people, Anthony Watson?”

The boy simply chuckled. “I wouldn't call this manipulation. I'm simply being well-prepared. What if there are no tickets left once you decide to leave with us? So, I asked Benjamin to book the ticket first. If you end up not going, we'll waste a ticket's worth of money at most. But if you do want to join us, and there's no ticket left, it'll be a shame, won't it?”

“I think you planned to make me follow you from the beginning. It doesn't matter what my answer is because the result won't change.”
