Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 551

Outside, Benjamin and Denise went straight to Natasha's room.

Coincidentally, they ran into Kenneth outside the room.

“Daddy.”

“Daddy.”

The kids greeted him.

He looked at them and asked, “Why are you two up so early today?”

They exchanged glances before Denise chirped, “That's because we want to keep Nat company!”

Kenneth nodded. “Okay. Go inside, then. I'm going out for a while.”

Denise nodded.

Seeing that Kenneth was about to leave, Benjamin and Denise had a silent conversation using their eyes. Then, they ran up to Kenneth. “Daddy, are you busy today?”

He turned his head around to gaze at them while continuing to walk ahead. “What's the matter?”

“I heard Mr. Dave has an armory. Can you bring us there for a visit?” Benjamin asked.

Kenneth halted upon hearing that. “Why do you want to visit an armory?”

“That's because I'm interested, so I want to take a look.”

Kenneth narrowed his eyes and sized up his son.

Sensing his father's silence, Benjamin said, “It's fine if we can't go. Never mind.”

The boy's manner of speech merely caused Kenneth to feel more indecisive.

After all, it was rare for Benjamin to request anything from him. Moreover, their relationship was just starting to show some improvements, so Kenneth didn't want to deny Benjamin either.

“We'll need to seek Mr. Dave's permission regarding this matter,” Kenneth said.

Benjamin's eyes shone as he nodded while gazing at his father.

“Let's go,” Kenneth uttered.

Thus, the father and son went downstairs together.

Dave was engaged in a call at that moment, so Kenneth and Benjamin exchanged glances and didn't interrupt him.

By the time he finished talking on the phone and turned around, Dave noticed the duo staring at him.

“What's the matter?”

Kenneth explained, “Dave, what's the status of your armory?”

Hearing that, Dave narrowed his eyes. “Why? What are you planning to do?” He walked up to them as he spoke. “Tell me. What do you want?”

“Do you think I care about those things?” Kenneth asked.

“Why are you asking about my armory if you don't care?” Dave retorted.

“It's me. I want to visit that place,” Benjamin piped up while regarding Dave with gleaming eyes.

“You?” Dave looked at the boy.

Benjamin nodded. “That's right! Me.”

Dave chuckled. “Why does a kid like you want to see the armory?”

“That's because I'm interested! I have liked these things since I was little, but I've never seen the real deal, so I want to get some exposure.”

Dave sized up Benjamin doubtfully. Although he knew the latter was a brilliant child, he figured no kid would fancy such items.

Taking in the way Dave scrutinized him in silence, Benjamin uttered, “Mr. Dave, do you not believe me?”

“Under normal circumstances, should I believe you?”

“Of course. It is every child's dream to own a gun!”

“Children are fond of the gun toys. Do any of them like genuine firearms?”

“Me. I like the authentic ones!”

“That's why I asked if you're normal.”
