Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 640

As though he had noticed something off about her response, Spencer looked her in the eyes and asked, “What are you planning on doing?”

Natasha simply flashed him a faint smile in response. “What could I possibly do?”

“Don't do anything stupid, Nat...”

“Am I really that stupid of a person?”

Spencer frowned and went silent as he tried to come up with a response.

“Don't worry; I'm not going to do anything!” Natasha reassured him with a faint smile.

Spencer simply stared at her in silence.

He knows me like the back of his hand. If I don't leave now, he'll definitely sense that something is wrong! With that in mind, Natasha decided to excuse herself. “All right, you carry on with your work. I'll head back and get some rest now.”

Spencer nodded at her without saying anything.

After making her way to the door, Natasha turned around and reminded him, “I know that you're very busy with your research to come up with an antidote, but you mustn't forget about Thalia. She needs you the most right now. She likes to see your handsome face, so make sure to shave before you go see her!”

It wasn't until Natasha had closed the door behind her that Spencer retracted his gaze and went back to his report.

Natasha returned to her room after leaving Spencer's laboratory.

As Kenneth was discussing business with Dave right now, she knew he wouldn't be home.

Even so, Natasha made sure to lock the room door and stand in the innermost corner of the room before whipping out her phone.

After a brief moment of hesitation, she punched in a number and made the call.

She had a sharp and determined look in her eyes as she clutched the phone tightly in her hand.

The call got through a few seconds later.

“Hello? Is this Ms. Watson?” asked the person on the other end of the line.

“Yes, it's me,” Natasha replied.

“I'm surprised you'd call me. Did something happen?” Boss asked with a hint of joy in his voice.

“I'm calling to confront you about something,” Natasha said coldly.

Boss let out a nonchalant chuckle. “I can tell that much.”

Natasha got straight to the point and asked, “Why would you do this?”

“I've done many things, so you need to be a little more specific. Which one are you talking about? Your poisoning or Kenneth's injury?”

“So, it really was you!” Natasha exclaimed.

Boss' voice grew cold all of a sudden. “Yes, it was me. It's a shame I failed to kill him, though. I can't believe he managed to escape.”

“Forget it, Boss! I won't let you hurt him!” Natasha yelled.

“Go ahead and try to stop me, then. I'll have you know that I don't just want to kill him. I'm also going to torture him so much that death would be a relief for him!” Boss said confidently.

“Talk is cheap, so how about we skip the idle chit-chat and cut to the chase? Tell me, what exactly do you want?”

“What, are you going to agree to all of my demands?” Boss asked.
