Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 97

Thalia bought a cup of coffee and took up position outside Natasha's ward.

She had somehow found a nurse uniform and put on the outfit, making her look like she truly belonged there.

Luckily, there are not many people around at night. Otherwise, it will be difficult for me to stay hidden with my outstanding looks.

Amidst her indulgence in her own beauty, the silhouette of a man approached Natasha's room.

Thalia turned cautious at once and strode toward the person.

“Mister, who are you?” she asked.

Kenneth turned around.

Thalia was about to make her move, but when she saw Kenneth's gorgeous face, she felt grateful to be equipped with quick reflexes as she instantly stopped herself from hitting him.

Fortunately, I did not attack him!

“What's the matter?” he asked.

“Oh, it's so late in the night and way past the visiting hours,” Thalia said.

“I'm not here for a visit. I'm here to guard someone.

“Guard?” Apparently, she was unconvinced.

“Should I make a phone call to your hospital's director?” he asked her.

Thalia gazed at him in silence.

At that moment, Kenneth was about to enter Natasha's room.

“Are you here to guard her or to take her life?” she suddenly questioned him.

Kenneth stopped abruptly in his tracks, turned around, and met Thalia's eyes with a puzzled look.

“It's really you, Kenneth Hamilton. I did not expect you to resort to such underhanded tactics!” Abandoning all hesitation, she leaped forward and struck

him.

Thus, Thalia and Kenneth began fighting in the corridor.

He merely dodged all the while, showing no intention to hit back.

After the fight went on for some time, he managed to restrain her. “Do you know me?

“Of course, and that's not the extent of it.” She sneered before continuing to attack him.

Although Kenneth had his doubts, he knew Thalia was not there to harm Natasha. Instead, she was trying to protect her.

“Are you looking down on me, Kenneth?

Do you think I'll let you go because you're not retaliating?” Thalia demanded.

“Are you here to protect her?”

“So what if I am?” she answered him with another question.

Only then did he tidy his clothes. “What a coincidence. Me too.”

Thalia withdrew the punch she was about to deliver the next second. “What?”

Kenneth sized her up and asked, “Have you ever seen anyone with ill intention walking around in such an open manner?”

His words prompted her mind to race. She agreed with him inwardly but was reluctant to admit he was right. “What if this is all an act?”

He smiled. “If I really wanted to harm her, do you think I would personally commit the act?”

Thalia felt that Kenneth's words made sense, so she nodded. “You do have a point.”

“Who are you? Why have I never seen you?

“It's normal that you've never seen me before.” Thalia was not about to tell him her name.

“You're not a nurse here!” he uttered firmly without a hint of doubt in his voice.

“Of course. Have you ever seen such a pretty nurse?” she asked while rolling her eyes at him. I did not anticipate him to be so adept at fighting. No wonder so many people are offering so much money to end his life, but none of their attempts have been successful thus far.

Kenneth was rendered speechless.

At that moment, the door to Natasha's ward opened. Perhaps their fighting had caused a commotion and startled her.

She walked out of the room and looked at the people standing outside. “Kenneth?”

Then, her gaze shifted onto Thalia, dressed in a nurse uniform. The latter instinctively covered her face.

Thalia scrutinized Kenneth and Natasha.
