Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 790

Explain? What do I have to explain? Did he see the message I sent in the group chat? At that thought, Mike immediately took out his phone to check. After ascertaining Kenneth wasn't in the group, he let out a sigh of relief. Phew. Thank goodness. But aside from this, what else do I need to explain? I didn't do anything recently.

While pondering on that, he prepared to get in the car.

Just as he was about to leave, Alexia hurried out of the ward.

Noticing him, she called out. “Mike, wait for me!”

He turned around and sized her up with a frown. “Why did you come out? Have your injuries healed?”

“Almost.” She walked over, opened the car door, and got in.

Seeing that, Mike got into the car too. “Where are you going?”

Alexia turned to look at him and uttered in an undertone, “I'll go wherever you go.”

“Will you still follow me if I say I'm going home?” he asked.

“If that's really where you're going, I'll follow you home.”

Mike was rendered speechless.

“If not, let's stop talking nonsense.” She fastened her seatbelt as she spoke.

Staring at her, Mike seemed to have guessed something. “Dave told you to recuperate here and wait until you're fully recovered before going back.”

“My wounds have healed.” Alexia insisted.

“Do you think I'm clueless about your health condition?” He waved his hand at her. “Get out of the car.”

However, she showed no inclination to heed his order. “You know very well that even if you don't take me with you, I'll still go back on my own!”

Mike furrowed his brows. “Why are you being so stubborn, young lady?”

Alexia was instantly displeased after listening to the way he addressed her and raised her voice. “I've said this before; I'm not a young lady anymore!”

Mike knew she didn't like being called young, but he had never seen her so anxious. He was slightly stunned, taking in her flushed face.

Alexia realized she had overreacted and averted her gaze. “I'm sorry. I didn't do that on purpose, but I'm not a child anymore.”

Mike gazed downward and contemplated for a few seconds before getting into the vehicle. However, instead of starting the car, he hesitated briefly and said, “You're impatient to return because of Kenneth, right?”

Alexia was slightly dazed.

Her silence provided him with the most definitive answer.

“You saw the message in the group chat?” he arched his brow.

“I don't know what you're talking about.” Instead of looking at him, she gazed out the window, clearly trying to avoid discussing that matter.

Mike smirked after hearing her response. “Normally, shouldn't you ask me what's the message in the group chat about?”

Alexia remained quiet.

He fathomed what she was thinking, so he pondered for a moment and said, “Alexia, I know you may not be happy to hear this, but as a brotherly figure who has watched you grow up, I still wish to remind you not to harbor too many fantasies about Kenneth. Although he's a nice person, he's not suitable for you. Putting aside the fact that he already has children, there's no way you can even control him because of the differences in your personalities.”

Hearing that, she turned to gaze at him. “Are you implying only that woman is most suitable for him?”

“I'm not sure whether they are most suitable for each other, but I know she's the first woman to have won Kenneth's affection.”

“I've never wanted to control him. I will respect his thoughts and wishes.”

“Alexia, are you admitting that you're in love with Kenneth?” Mike asked.

Alexia was stunned. Throughout the conversation, she didn't express the slightest resistance or refusal. Although she had never been in a relationship, she couldn't deny that she had fantasized about being with Kenneth countless times.

Alexia didn't know if that feeling was considered love. I'm willing to die for Kenneth, so I suppose this is love, right?
