Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 444

Thankfully, Thalia and Dave no longer fought with each other for the rest of the drive.

However, Thalia's stomach grumbled from time to time.

Benjamin suddenly rummaged through Anthony's bag as though he remembered something.

Perplexed, Anthony asked, “What are you doing?”

“I remember you have some chocolate in your bag!”

“Impossible! I don't even like chocolate in the first place!” denied Anthony vehemently.

Benjamin ignored his protests and continued digging through the bag. His lips curved into a smug smile a moment later.

“I said I don't have any...”

Anthony trailed off as his brother whipped a chocolate bar out of his bag.

Stunned, Anthony stared agape at the chocolate and then at his bag. He mumbled suspiciously, “W-Where did this come from?”

“I put it in your bag!”

Anthony was speechless.

Meanwhile, Thalia was almost drifting off to sleep from her hunger.

Benjamin reached out and tapped her on the shoulder.

She opened her eyes and looked at him, asking groggily, “What?”

He passed her the precious chocolate bar, and Thalia's eyes immediately lit up.

“Where did this come from?”

Benjamin replied, “I always carry some chocolate around with me. Since I didn't bring a bag with me this time, I stuffed it in Anthony's bag.”

Thalia smiled and received the chocolate gratefully. “You're the best, Benjamin!”

The car screeched to a sudden stop.

All three passengers turned to stare at Dave.

“I'm going to buy something!” Dave declared and abruptly left the car.

Anthony and Benjamin just stared at him without saying a word, while Thalia rolled her eyes and muttered, “Urgh, so pretentious!”

She promptly tore open the wrapper and ate the chocolate.

The chocolate was a lifesaver to the half-starved Thalia.

Though she was still hungry after eating the chocolate, her stomach no longer felt as uncomfortable as it was before.

Just then, Dave returned to the car with a bag in his hand.

He passed the bag to Anthony and Benjamin once he got in.

“Erm, what's this, Mr. Dave?”

“I went to get a coffee and bought some food too. We don't have time for dinner, so we'll have to make do with some light bites for now!”

The boys nodded blankly.

Dave started the engine and drove off without a further word.

Anthony almost passed some of the snacks to Thalia when he suddenly paused in thought.

He elbowed Benjamin, who was about to dig in.

Benjamin stared at him and asked, “What?”

Anthony's gaze darted from Dave to Thalia, and Benjamin immediately understood him.

“No. Really?” Benjamin mouthed the words at his brother.

Arching a brow, Anthony mouthed back, “Who knows?”

He shot Dave a final glance before handing some snacks to the woman in the passenger seat. “Have some, Thalia!”

When she saw the food in Anthony's hands, she immediately turned her head away and declared pettily, “I'm not eating that!”

“Why?”

“I won't simply eat food offered by my enemy!” drawled Thalia, who crossed her arms across her chest and stared ahead stubbornly.

Anthony was struck speechless by her attitude.
