Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 832

The man's body stiffened as he eyed Thalia's dagger.

“W-What are you trying to do?” he asked, staring intently at her knife. He looked as if here was afraid that it would cut them.

However, Thalia casually played with the knife in her hand. The blade slid along the cheek and suddenly pressed against the man's face. Her beautiful eyes appeared to even darker as she said, “What do you think I want to do? Get the money and leave?”

“I... I've done things too, so why can't I have any room for choice?” the man asked, staring at her blankly.

“Once the task is done, you'll naturally have choices, but if it's not finished, you have no options!” Thalia said, emphasizing each word.

“You—”

“What about me?” Thalia looked at him and asked in return. Her voice wasn't loud, but it was full of pressure.

She wasn't actually angry. Normally, Thalia appeared to be a girl without care. However, once she got upset, an intense aura would envelop her.

The man looked on with a hint of fear in his eyes. Still, he mustered the courage to speak. “I'm telling you, it doesn't matter who you are. If you really get hurt, you won't be able to leave this place unscathed!”

Upon hearing this, Thalia laughed and said, “Oh, really?”

“So, if you know what's good for you, let me go, and we can pretend nothing ever happened!” he said.

Thalia laughed softly, her voice filled with mockery. “I, Thalia Jacoway, have wandered the society for so many years, and there's no wolf's den that I haven't been to. I'm also curious to see if I can walk out of this place unscathed!”

The man looked at her, somewhat at a loss for words.

Why does this woman not get intimidated by these tactics?

Anthony watched from the side, a faint smile tugging at the corner of his mouth. However, he soon hid his smile. He walked over and said, “Alright, Thalia, stop scaring him.”

As he spoke, he looked at the man and said softly, “Actually, we don't have any other intentions. We were just a bit suspicious. Please don't mind!”

The man looked at Thalia's unsheathed knife and didn't dare to make any sudden moves. “Is this called being overly suspicious?”

“Thalia!” Anthony looked at her.

Thalia hesitated for a moment before reluctantly putting away the dagger.

The man looked on and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Anthony looked at him and said, “Don't worry, the beautiful lady here may be fierce, but she's not unreasonable. As long as you finish what you're supposed to do next, I guarantee you won't be in any danger!”

He was using both hard and soft tactics.

There was no way that the man did not understand.

However, at this moment, he had no other choice.

Looking at Anthony, the person nodded. “Of course.”

“Let's go then!” Anthony said.

The man looked on and nodded. However, as they walked further into the hospital and got closer to the ward, his unspoken worries grew increasingly apparent.

Just as they were about to reach the entrance of the ward, the man suddenly stopped in their tracks. “My stomach feels a bit off. I need to use the restroom.”

Anthony looked at him and said, “Great, I'm going there too. Let's go together!”

The person was rendered speechless.

Thalia looked at them. “I'll guard the door for you.”

The man did not know what to say.

Even if he had any plans up his sleeve, he couldn't muster the energy to execute them at this moment.

After hesitating for a moment, he gave up and said, “Forget it, I don't want to go anymore. Let's just go meet the person directly. I can go after we're done.”

Anthony nodded, “That works too.”

With that, the man led them toward the ward.
