As soon as they arrived at the entrance, Benjamin said, “But we haven't found the car.”
Anthony paused in his steps.
That's right! We went on separate ways to find the car, but none of us found it.
Thalia pursed her lips and gazed at Dave with her beautiful eyes. “That depends on whether someone wants to let us find it,” she said teasingly.
Dave looked up at her, his eyes filled with complicated emotions.
She is indeed a smart woman. It seems that members of Darknetz are really competent after all!
Anthony and Benjamin seemed to have sensed something. They looked at Dave and saw that he was staring at Thalia with his lips pursed and that there was something about the look in his eyes.
“Mr. Dave...”
Dave came back to his senses. He turned to look at Anthony and Benjamin and said, “I do know where the car is.”
Anthony's and Benjamin's frowns deepened.
“I found the car when we separated just now, but there was no trace of your daddy. I don't want to upset you guys, so I chose not to tell you about it,” Dave said in a low voice.
After listening to his explanation, Thalia chuckled and shifted her gaze elsewhere.
Anthony closed his eyes for a moment and said, “Mr. Dave, I don't think it's right. Since we agreed to cooperate with each other, we should also trust each other. Although we're young, that doesn't mean we're immature. I hope you can tell us the truth if anything happens next time.”
Dave was baffled by Anthony's words. After thinking for a while, he responded, “Okay. I'm sorry for not thinking it through. There won't be a next time.”
Anthony nodded and did not pursue it any further.
“Let's go, then.” With that, Anthony walked ahead of them, with Dave, Thalia, and Benjamin in tow.
“How did you know that Mr. Dave found the car? Haven't you been with us all the time?” Benjamin whispered to Thalia.
He was curious, as Thalia had been with the two of them all the time when they had gone to find the car earlier.
Thalia looked at Anthony and Dave at the front, then at Benjamin. “Do you believe in a woman's sixth sense?”
Benjamin was rendered speechless by her reply.
Should I believe her? Maybe I should! Sometimes, Anthony, Denise, and I do have this special feeling.
At the thought of that, Benjamin nodded. “I believe you!”
“Seriously? How can you believe in everything?” Thalia poked his little head with her finger.
“It's not that I believe in everything. I just believe in everything you said!”
Thalia was stunned for a moment.
Aww, why is he so sweet?
Thalia felt an inexplicable warmth in her heart.
“Would you still believe me even if I told you lies?” she asked.
“If you tell us lies, then I believe it must be for our own good!” said Benjamin.
Before Thalia knew it, her heart was overflowing with love again.
She looked at Benjamin, her eyes brimming with affection.
“You're so sweet, Benjamin! How can there be such a sweet boy like you in this world?” Thalia walked up to him and gave him a big hug.
“Sweet?” Benjamin smiled awkwardly.
It was the first time someone had described him in that way.
