Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 963

Watching her remain silent and motionless, Spencer knitted his brows. “Kenneth is already on his way here. Let's leave this place first. We can discuss everything once he arrives.”

Upon hearing the sound, Thalia frowned. “What if the antidote is really inside?”

“Even if it's there, we still have to wait for Kenneth to come over,” Spencer answered, looking at her.

“But if they find out we're here, I'm afraid things might get more complicated!” Thalia responded with concern.

At that point, Spencer knew she had a plan.

He looked at her with deep, mysterious eyes and asked softly, “Thalia, what's your plan?”

“I was just thinking, while our boss can be quite paranoid sometimes, I doubt he'd keep a ticking time bomb right beside him. So, I'm inclined to believe that whatever it is, it's probably not a bomb,” Thalia murmured. Her years of intuition and experience told her that there was more to the situation than met the eye.

“But what if it is? How do you know he wouldn't go against the norm?” Spencer could not help but frown as he listened to her analysis. “Besides, this is his territory, and he knows best what's going on here. For him, this might just be a self-defense weapon, not a danger.”

There was some truth to Spencer's words.

As Thalia listened, her gaze shifted toward the direction of the drawer. After a moment of hesitation, she said, “I still believe, there must be something in there...”

“Thalia!” Spencer looked at her, his brows furrowed.

At that moment, Thalia looked at him and then at Alexia standing beside him. She made up her mind, saying, “You guys should leave first. I need to give it a try!” Her gaze shifted toward the drawer, her decision firm.

Sensing her insistence, Spencer stepped forward to stop her. “Thalia, can you stop being stubborn?”

As he grasped her hand, Thalia looked up at him and said, “Spencer, I might appear capricious to you, but for me, this is something I must do. If I miss this opportunity, it will be difficult for me to obtain the antidote in the future.”

“But...” Before Spencer could finish talking, Thalia interjected.

“This is what I owe Nat. If I can't retrieve it, I'll never find peace in my life,” Thalia said firmly, emphasizing each word.

Spencer looked at her, suddenly at a loss for words.

He had watched Thalia grow up, so he understood her temperament well.

Seeing him remain silent, Thalia spoke up. “Also, have you ever considered that the boss might be deliberately stalling, playing mysterious? Spencer, we really don't have much time left!” said Thalia.

Spencer suddenly fell silent, looking at her. “All right. If that's the case, go ahead and do it.”

“Really?” asked Thalia.

“Yes. No matter what you do, I'll be here with you!” said Spencer.

The smile that had just risen froze midway, and then Thalia frowned. “No, no. I can do it myself.”

However, Spencer held her hand tightly. “You said it's no big deal, right? If it's no big deal, then let's do it together.”

The reassurance from Thalia that it was nothing serious was just a way to persuade him. She could risk her own life, but she could never gamble with Spencer's. “Spencer, can you stop messing around? Please, just go! Leave immediately!”

“If you don't, I won't either,” Spencer declared with unwavering determination.

“Spencer!” Thalia raised her voice.

“You're asking me to leave, which means you think there's danger. But knowing you're in danger, how could I possibly abandon you?” Spencer asked, then looked at her with deep affection. “I've left you once, and I absolutely won't leave you a second time.”

Thalia looked at him, suddenly frozen in place.

This was the first time she had heard Spencer say something like this.

In the past, she had considered her relationship with Spencer to be an insurmountable chasm. However, at this moment, realization seemed to have dawned on her.

Even though she did not understand why Spencer rejected her, she could now clearly feel his love for her.
