Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 691

Thalia was taken aback to hear Denise's words.

She knew they would ask questions but hadn't figured out how to answer them yet.

What should I tell them?

She noticed Anthony walking past her and called out, “Anthony!”

Hearing his name being called, Anthony halted in his tracks and turned over his shoulder. Thalia immediately gave him a smile.

However, Anthony walked away as if he did not see or hear her.

Seeing that, Thalia parted her lips to say something but ended up letting out a helpless sigh. “Anthony is still mad at me!”

Denise stared at Anthony's retreating figure and nodded. “Yes. After failing to find you at the hotel that day, Tony went home and locked himself in his room for a long time. He ignored everyone and refused to say a word.”

Thalia looked down at Denise as a complicated look flashed across her eyes. “Really?”

Denise bobbed her head eagerly. “Of course! If you don't believe me, ask Ben!”

Thalia glanced at Benjamin, who shot her a curt and stern nod.

The smile on Thalia's lips disappeared as she muttered under her breath, “It looks like I've hurt him with my words.”

“So we need to find out what happened. Thalia, what's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly say that to Anthony?” Benjamin asked, his gaze fixed on her.

Hearing that, Denise trained her gaze on Thalia and inclined her head. “Yes. If you make yourself clear, Tony won't be mad anymore.”

Thalia lowered her gaze and replied despondently, “It's not necessary. Anthony is a very competitive person and wouldn't tolerate anyone speaking ill of him.”

“I don't think so—”

“I don't want to talk about it. I'm tired and want to go to bed. You should leave,” Thalia said as she spun around on her heels and made her way back to her room, shutting the door behind her.

“Thalia!” Denise cried out as she took one step forward, but the door had already been closed.

Denise had to swallow the rest of her words. She blinked her eyes twice innocently before turning to Benjamin. “Did we just get brushed off?”

Benjamin sighed and stared at the closed door. He said helplessly, “Isn't that obvious? She's avoiding the topic.”

“She's a better actress than I am,” Denise remarked.

“Let's go. Since we can't get her to tell us anything, we should resort to Tony's tactics,” Benjamin urged.

“That's the only way,” Denise agreed.

They then left.

Thalia leaned against the door and pressed her ear to it in an attempt to hear the noise outside.

She heaved a sigh of relief once it was quiet once more.

Opening the door cautiously, she peered outside to make sure there was no one there before shutting the door firmly. She then pulled out her phone to text Natasha: The kids asked me about it. What should I tell them?

After a long wait, she still didn't receive any reply.

Thalia gazed at the door, afraid that the two little ones would return. In the end, she lay down in bed and pretended to sleep.

That way, they wouldn't trouble her anymore.

Meanwhile, Anthony headed straight to Spencer's lab.

Spencer was busy fiddling with something on his board. When someone knocked on the door, he didn't bother looking up and said, “Come in.”

Anthony pushed the door open and walked into the lab.

“What is it?” Spencer asked without lifting his head.
