Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 1000

Anthony stared at Thalia for a full minute.

A myriad of complex emotions and thoughts ran through his mind. Yet, in the end, he did not say a word.

Because deep down, he knew that Thalia meant well for him.

Suppressing the surge of anger welling up in his heart, Anthony withdrew his gaze and lowered his head. “What did Kyle say?”

“Hmm...” Thalia was organizing her thoughts. After a moment, she spoke, “Nothing.”

Upon hearing that, Anthony lifted his gaze toward the window.

Thalia glanced at him, then continued, “Regarding this matter, Kyle has been unable to accept it initially. Later on, he understands the whole process.”

“So, what happened next?” Anthony asked.

“What do you mean?” Thalia asked.

“So, is that all?” Anthony asked.

Thalia looked at him. “What outcome do you desire?”

“It's not about what outcome I want... But rather, what decision they will make,” Anthony said calmly. His palm-sized face carried an indescribable maturity as if he could accept and understand whatever decision Kyle made.

After listening for a moment, Thalia finally understood his thoughts. A slight smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. “Still thinking about quitting?”

Anthony remained silent.

“Just give up on that idea. Kyle will never agree,” said Thalia.

“Why?” he asked.

“What do you think?” Thalia retorted. “With your skills, don't you have a clue? If you withdraw, it's like releasing a tiger back into the mountains. No matter which organization you join, you will inevitably become his number one enemy. Then, they will have to go to great lengths to find me to kill you. Tell me. Why would he bother? Would he really do that?”

Upon hearing that, Anthony's eyebrows furrowed. He found himself entangled in this matter that he had not given much thought to.

Chances were Kyle would not allow that to happen.

His eyes narrowed slightly as Anthony pondered something.

At that moment, Thalia turned her head to glance at him. “You and Benjamin are the future of Darknetz. I can tell that Kyle is very excited, so I believe there's still room for maneuver in this matter. However, as for how to solve it, we still need to give him some time. He will come up with a solution.”

“I don't want to put him in a difficult situation.”

“It's better that he is. When faced with two evils, choose the lesser one. He's not stupid!” said Thalia.

Anthony heaved a deep sigh as he listened. His gaze drifted toward outside, and his eyes were filled with an indescribable hesitation and difficulty.

Thalia turned to glance at him with a restrained gaze before asking, “Or are you saying, you want to quit Darknetz? You're going to use this incident as an opportunity to leave?”

Upon hearing her questions, Anthony turned his head toward her. “What nonsense are you talking about?”

“Isn't that so?” Thalia raised an eyebrow.

“The reason I wanted to quit before was because of Nat. If it weren't for that, I would never have considered leaving. I admit that when I first joined Darknetz, it was like a game to me. But after spending a year or two together, do you really think I'm heartless enough to just quit? Are you serious?” Anthony asked anxiously.

Listening, Thalia curled her lips up slightly. “Who knows?”

“Don't you know, even if others don't?” Anthony retorted.

“What's really going on in that mind of yours? You've had me going in circles since the day we met. How am I supposed to know what you're truly thinking?” Thalia retorted.

Anthony looked at her. He wanted to get angry, but after a moment of thought, he forcefully suppressed it.

He glanced at her and struggled to suppress the anger in his heart. “You can question my character, but you cannot question my commitment to Darknetz.” He added in a murmur, “Since I joined Darknetz, I've truly considered it a place where I can realize my dreams in the future. If it weren't for this incident, I would never have had such a thought.” He spoke word by word, but his passion for Darknetz was palpable.
