Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 637

After entering the room, Thalia sat down on the bed in an elegant posture and stared them down. “Go on, then. Ask away.”

The three kids exchanged glances. Eventually, it was Anthony who spoke up first. “Are you guys hiding something from us?”

Thalia immediately understood what he meant, but playing dumb was a skill she had developed after spending so much time around them.

“Who are you referring to?” Thalia asked.

Anthony frowned. “You adults.”

“And which 'us' are you referring to?” Thalia asked.

“The three of us, of course,” Anthony replied patiently.

There's no way Thalia wouldn't know what I'm talking about. She's definitely playing dumb!

Thalia simply nodded without saying anything in response.

The three kids were starting to lose their patience when they saw how relaxed she was.

“Well? Tell us, Thalia!” Denise urged her.

Thalia glanced at her and asked, “Tell you what?”

“Um...” Denise suddenly found herself at a loss for words.

Thalia let out a sigh and flashed them a confused look as she said, “You kids should be going after the people you think are suspicious. How would I know the answer to such things? We're on the same side, aren't we? I share everything I know with you kids. The four of us are members of Darknetz, so if they're keeping secrets, they're sure to keep me in the dark as well!”

The kids fell silent after hearing that.

They didn't know what to say as her explanation seemed to make perfect sense.

Anthony and Benjamin exchanged glances as they processed Thalia's words.

“Those are two different things, Thalia. We say you're keeping secrets from us. If it really is related to this, then Mr. Dave wouldn't have let you stay here while you recover from your injuries!” Denise said.

Thalia froze as she wasn't expecting her to be so sharp.

Upon realizing how they nearly let Thalia fool them, Anthony and Benjamin shifted their gazes back toward Thalia as they waited for her answer.

In the face of the three intelligent kids, all Thalia could do was continue playing dumb.

“I have no idea what you're talking about,” she replied while shaking her head and putting on the most innocent look possible.

Denise nodded. “Okay, fine, we'll assume you don't know that for now. What about Spencer's laboratory, then? You should know what he researches in there, right?”

Whoa... That question really hit the target! Great job, Denise!

Anthony and Benjamin were staring at Denise with proud looks in their eyes.

“I...” Thalia didn't know what to say.

“You should at least know about your relationship with Spencer, right?” Denise pressed on.

For some reason, hearing that question made Thalia a little happy. “What is my relationship with Spencer? Are we really that close?”

“You two were hugging each other!” Anthony snapped at her.

Thalia shot him a glare in response.

Anthony arched an eyebrow at her as he added, “Hey, I'm just stating the facts.”

“And you ruined the moment for us. Besides, that doesn't mean I know everything. As you all know, Spencer and I aren't exactly that close. He's avoiding me every day, so there's no way he'd tell me everything!” Thalia said with a pout.

“That doesn't make sense,” Denise protested.

“How so?” Thalia asked.
