Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 467

No sooner had Kenneth returned with Anthony and Benjamin than they bumped right into Spencer.

When the two boys alighted from the car and spotted him, they darted their eyes around.

“Where's Thalia?” Anthony asked.

Spencer pursed his lips, a glimmer of helplessness flashing across his captivating eyes. “I lost her.”

Anthony and Benjamin both frowned.

Before they could say anything, Kenneth climbed out of the car. His brows knitted together when he saw the man.

Inhaling deeply, Spencer turned his gaze to Kenneth. “How did it go? Is there news of Nat?”

“There are some leads,” Kenneth replied in a low voice.

“Is she okay? She's not hurt, is she?” Spencer inquired.

At that, Kenneth leveled a look at him. The dark night rendered him increasingly taller and imposing. “If you had shown a certain person such concern, things would've been different now.”

Spencer knew who he was alluding to, but he ignored it. “Why, you're still jealous of me when I've known Nat for years?”

“You know that wasn't what I meant.”

Spencer looked away before shifting his gaze back to Kenneth. “Your next treatment is in two days. I want to go out and explore before that. I'll be back two days later.”

They were both grown men, so Kenneth naturally wouldn't poke his nose into the man's business too much. He nodded. “Okay, got it.”

“If you need any help from me, contact me anytime,” Spencer offered.

Once again, Kenneth bobbed his head.

Subsequently, Spencer turned to the two boys. He flashed them a smile before leaving.

“You—”

Benjamin was just about to speak when Anthony held him back.

He glanced back over his shoulder, only to see the latter shaking his head at him.

“What about Thalia?” he questioned.

“We'll ask her first before acting. Anyway, he'll still be back two days later,” Anthony asserted.

Spencer's back looked inexplicably lonely.

Benjamin knew that everything depended on the parties involved when it came to relationships no matter how much outsiders offered advice or counsel. At that thought, he sighed and gave up in the end.

Anthony then swung his gaze at Kenneth. “Come and stay with us over there, Daddy. It's nearer to the place Nat mentioned. That way, we can even go together tomorrow!”

Kenneth's brows scrunched together.

“Let's go! Mr. Dave is there. Now that Spencer has left, you'll be bored staying here alone.” Anthony stepped forward and tugged at the man.

Kenneth could only leave with the two boys since he was no match for their adamancy.

Only after returning to the hotel and watching as Kenneth went into the room to rest did Anthony and Benjamin breathe a sigh of relief.

Having settled that matter, they went off to settle the other matter.

They walked over to Thalia's room and knocked on the door, but there was no response.

A frown marred Benjamin's countenance. “Don't tell me she didn't come back?”

“Give her a call.”

Nodding, Benjamin rang Thalia up right from his watch.

Once he had made the call, it was only answered when it was a second away from disconnecting automatically.

“Hello.”

“Where are you, Thalia?” Benjamin asked.

“At the rooftop!”

“The hotel rooftop?”

“Yeah.”

“Okay, we'll go up and look for you.”

“Bring some beer up.”

Benjamin was stumped for a second. “Got it.”

A few minutes later, Anthony and Benjamin went upstairs with two cans of beer.

As soon as they stepped onto the rooftop, they were greeted by the sight of Thalia's despondent back. She was hugging her knees and sitting on the ground like an aggrieved child.

Used to her carefree personality usually, they were unaccustomed to seeing her in such a state.

They exchanged a glance before walking over.
