Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 380

“You can tell?” Disbelief was written all over Thalia's face.

“Mhm.” Benjamin nodded.

“Do you have x-ray vision or something?” she uttered before glancing at him. “It's fine. You don't need to make it up to me on behalf of your father. I'm not going to hold a grudge against him.”

He wanted to say something, but his lips simply trembled before he gave up.

Explaining things wasn't his forte, but he really could tell there were no bullets in the gun.

At that moment, he watched Anthony approach Kenneth. Thalia nudged him and asked, “Do you think Anthony can do it?”

Benjamin nodded casually. “Of course. He's our daddy, so no matter how things end, we're going to be fine.”

Her hand was placed on his shoulder, though her eyebrows furrowed when she heard that. “Are you feeling proud right now?”

He replied innocently, “Not at all. I'm just stating facts.”

She studied him. “You've been acting pretty strangely toward Kenneth.

What's the matter? Were you bought out by him?”

His lips twitched as he mumbled, “What do you mean by that? He's my daddy, and nothing will change that.”

Words were dancing on her lips, yet she couldn't utter them out loud.

There weren't any problems with what he said, after all.

When her train of thought ended there, she pursed her lips. “Let’s see what they're saying.”

Hence, both of them turned their attention to Kenneth and Anthony.

At that moment, Anthony arrived in front of his father. He stared at the man, thought for a while, and proposed, “How about we find somewhere else to chat?”

Kenneth's gaze swept past his son. “Does it need to be so formal?”

“The wilderness isn't a great place to talk.”

The man glanced at his wristwatch before his eyebrows furrowed. “No need. The wilderness is the perfect place to chat with you two!"

Anthony was rendered speechless.

He knew Kenneth was in a hurry, but so was everyone else. Despite growing increasingly agitated, he could only put on a calm facade.

It was an endurance test from then onward.

The boy pretended to clear his throat before smiling at his father. “Fine. In that case, let's chat here...”

Kenneth remained silent as he stared, as though he was waiting for a perfectly reasonable explanation.

“First of all, I apologize for the shipments, Daddy!”

“If you really did feel sorry, you wouldn’t have done this!”

A glint flashed past Anthony's eyes.

His father was right, but he couldn't just admit it.

“Here's the thing, Daddy. True, I'm in the wrong, but ultimately, I didn't do anything bad to you.”

“Oh?” “It’s true that this shipment is part of my goal. It was just a coincidence that we crossed paths! However, I can't give up just because you're my daddy. It's not fair to Darknetz, and it's also not... respectful to someone like you. Someone of your status doesn't need other people to make way for you, right, Daddy?” He smiled brightly.

His plan was to state the matter at hand first before buttering his father up.

My son's getting better and better at talking. Kenneth stared as his dark eyes shone with a strange light. “So, according to what you're saying, I should be thanking you.”

“That's not necessary!” The boy waved his hands.

“You're not modest at all!”

Anthony's gaze remained pinned on his father, not a hint of anger in it. “I bet you already suspected me from the start. Am I right, Daddy?”
