Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 854

In the car.

Miguel slept soundly as he snored away.

“It's been a while. I hope nothing has happened. I'm going in to take a look.” Thalia's gaze kept darting outside, but she could not see Benjamin and Denise anywhere. She lifted her wrist to check the time and could not help but worry. She opened the door and headed out.

Meanwhile, Anthony was looking at his phone when he heard the sound of the door opening and said, “No need. They're already out.”

Thalia's eyes swept across the area, and she saw Benjamin and Denise coming out from inside. Only when she saw them did she finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Opening the car door, the two of them got in.

Seeing this, Anthony tidied up the seats.

Thalia looked back at them and said, “If you hadn't come out, I would've gone inside to look for you.”

After sitting down, Denise slumped against the backseat, looking quite exhausted.

“What's wrong?” Thalia asked.

“Let Ben explain,” Denise said lazily. After talking so much with Magus, she felt she had used up all her energy.

Benjamin turned to look at Denise, knowing that she was always lazy, and did not refuse. He looked at Thalia and said, “We encountered some minor problems later on.”

“What did you guys talk to Magus about in the corridor?” Anthony asked directly.

Benjamin looked at him and understood Anthony had hacked into the hospital's surveillance system.

“Magus is here?” Thalia asked.

Benjamin nodded. “Yeah. We were just talking with Lina when Magus went in, and he almost kicked us out!”

“How dare he!” Upon hearing this, Thalia frowned and exclaimed. Then, she turned her head to look at Anthony and asked, “How did you know Magus was here?”

“What else do you think I'm looking at on my phone?” Anthony retorted.

Thalia responded, “Why didn't you tell me if you already know?”

“Err, I was so focused on watching that I forgot.”

Thalia scolded, “You clearly did it on purpose!”

“Do you have any evidence?”

Thalia sneered. “Do you think I need evidence for that?”

Anthony seemed to have understood something from her gaze and immediately stopped. “That's true. After all, you have your abilities. You wouldn't care about such trivial things.”

“Are you scared now?”

“Of course. Since I'm out in this world, I have to rely on you.”

“You certainly have a clear understanding of yours situation.”

“Of course,” said Anthony. He quickly changed the subject and turned to Benjamin, “Continue, Benjamin.”

Benjamin lazily raised an eyebrow. “You two aren't going to fight anymore?”

“What do you mean fight? We're just joking around.”

“He knows his place.”

Seeing the two of them acting this way, Benjamin could not help but sigh. “Actually, I didn't say anything. It was all Denise.”

He briefly summarized what Denise had said and told them.

After listening to him, a hint of surprise flashed across Thalia's eyes. She looked straight at Denise and asked, “How did you know?”

Denise was still lazily leaning back, seemingly resting but was actually keeping an eye on them and participating in their conversation. Hearing the question, she replied, “I overheard your conversation with Spencer over the phone yesterday.”

“Weren't you asleep at that time?”

“I was half asleep.”

“Then, what I said later on...”

“Oh, I didn't hear what was said after that,” Denise exclaimed.

Thalia finally felt at ease and nodded.

Benjamin then asked, “What was said after that?”
