Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 840

Once they got on the car, Natasha's phone rang.

Natasha picked up her phone and wanted to answer it. However, upon seeing the caller ID, her eyebrows instantly furrowed.

Kenneth fastened his seatbelt, ready to set off, but noticed Natasha staring at her phone without any reaction. He furrowed his brow and asked, “What's wrong?”

Natasha looked up, and her eyes met his. She said, “It's Boss...”

Kenneth paused for a moment, and his gaze shifted to her phone. The incoming call displayed Boss's number.

Upon seeing this, Kenneth's eyes slightly narrowed.

“Could it be that he knows we're fine?” Natasha asked.

Kenneth pursed his lips and did not speak. He was also pondering the matter at hand.

Natasha thought for a moment and was about to answer the call when suddenly, Kenneth reached out and stopped her.

“Let's talk about it later.” Kenneth looked at her.

Thus, Natasha's watched the phone screen flicker until it automatically disconnected.

Natasha took her phone, just about to unlock it, when suddenly, a new message appeared on the screen.

I am sorry.

Upon seeing this message, Natasha's eyebrows furrowed.

Natasha looked at Kenneth and asked, “What does it mean?”

Kenneth took her phone and saw the three words on the screen. A sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. “What else could it mean? He probably drank too much and is feeling guilty now.”

Natasha narrowed her eyes.

Kenneth looked at her and smiled. “It's fine and actually better that you don't understand.”

He certainly had a lot less to worry about now.

Natasha looked at him. “Why do I feel like you're mocking me?”

Kenneth replied, “No, I'm genuinely praising you, Nat. You're especially charming like this.”

Natasha adjusted her sitting position and looked straight ahead. “I don't believe you at all.”

Kenneth smiled and then started the car and drove away.

“So, what should I do with this information?” Natasha asked.

Kenneth thought carefully and said, “If it's as I thought, he now believes that he caused your death and is filled with guilt toward you.”

“Why would he think that?” Natasha wondered.

“I'm not quite sure about that.” Kenneth shook his head.

Natasha narrowed her eyes. A hint of doubt flashed across her delicate features, and her eyes showed that she was pondering something.

At that moment, Kenneth suddenly held her hand in his palm. “Don't worry, Nat. This time, we will definitely get him!”

She asked, “Are you that confident?”

“Fishing is easy with good bait,” Kenneth said with certainty.

He knew the financial situation of Vermillion Base all too well. The offer Dave made to lure Boss would definitely tempt the latter.

Upon hearing Kenneth's words, Natasha did not say anything more but just took a deep breath.

As if sensing something, Kenneth turned his head to look at her. “What's the matter? You can't bear to do it?”

Upon hearing this, Natasha turned her head to look at Kenneth and said, “Do I look like such an irrational person that I would pity an enemy just because they show a little guilt towards me?”

“Then...” Kenneth trailed off.

“I'm just worried about this plan. I'm afraid it might lead to unexpected consequences,” Natasha said.
