Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 783

Natasha was moved by her speech.

All these years, she had never encountered someone who felt the same as she did.

Natasha suppressed the urge to cry as she gazed at Thalia and said, “No one in this world is more significant than anyone else. Each person is independent and remarkable in their own way. What you mentioned just now were merely additional criteria. Should we assume that those with no relatives and friends are not worthy of living?”

Upon hearing Natasha's words, Thalia realized that Natasha had a rare clear insight that not many possessed. Her words warmed Thalia's heart, and she felt that, at the very least, she had not misjudged Natasha's character.

Thalia nodded in agreement. “That's how it is for others, but you're my friend.”

Natasha fixed her gaze on Thalia without saying anything.

With a smile, Thalia said, “All right, that's enough. Stop acting as if you were moved beyond words. Although I have given you the antidote, you still need to help me come up with a solution for more.”

Natasha bobbed her head at Thaila. “Of course.”

Thalia's smile widened. Lifting her cup of coffee, she said, “Come, let's toast to your new chance at life.”

However, Natasha blurted out, “Wait a minute.”

“What's wrong?”

Natasha lifted her hand to summon the housekeeper. “Bring me the leftover red wine from the other day. Thanks.”

The housekeeper nodded and left to get the red wine.

Thalia muttered, “Do we really need to drink this early in the morning?”

“You haven't tried this before, have you? It's a great experience,” Natasha said teasingly.

An exasperated chuckle escaped Thalia's lips. “Aren't you afraid that Anthony will start chastising you if he sees this?”

“That's why I'm drinking it while he's not around,” Natasha pointed out.

Thalia arched a brow. “Honestly, my alcohol tolerance has gotten a lot higher recently because of you.”

Natasha flashed her a smile. “You're welcome.”

Thalia snorted. “I'm not thanking you.”

Right then, the housekeeper returned with half a bottle of red wine. After placing one glass each for Natasha and Thalia on the table, the housekeeper was just about to fill their glasses when Natasha interrupted her by saying, “I'll do it myself.”

The housekeeper glanced at her before nodding. “All right.”

With that said, the housekeeper retreated from the room.

Natasha then took the bottle and filled Thalia's glass first.

Watching Natasha pour the wine herself, Thalia teased, “Thank you for filling my glass personally, Ms. Watson. I'll definitely down this in one go.”

After Natasha filled some for herself as well, she sat back down and said, “In that case, let's chug this, shall we?”

“Mhm,” Thalia hummed.

The two clinked glasses. Then, Thalia tilted her head back and downed the contents in her glass with one gulp.

Natasha watched Thalia empty the glass before slowly doing the same.

After finishing her wine, Thalia licked her lips and savored the taste. “Yes, this is good.”

“It is, isn't it? Do you want more?” Natasha queried, lifting a brow.

“Hey, drink lesser. You just took the antidote. What if the alcohol affects it?” Thalia questioned.

Natasha nodded in agreement. “All right. In that case, you should stop drinking too.”

“But I'm fine!”

“You're tempting me!” Natasha uttered, pushing her glass to the side.

Thalia could not help chuckling. “All right, I'll listen to you this one time.”

The two of them then started eating instead.

A thought popped into Natasha's head, and she turned to face Thalia. “By the way, when are you planning to depart?”
