Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 1043

Meanwhile, in the hotel's restaurant, Kyle was already waiting by the time Thalia and Spencer arrived.

Clad in black with his legs crossed, he appeared young. But because of his years of navigating the legitimate and underground worlds, he exuded a commanding aura.

At that moment, the restaurant wasn't crowded, but everyone there had their gazes fixed on him.

When Thalia walked over, she said with a smile, “Looking good, Boss!”

“Is that so?”

“Of course. Look at the people in this restaurant. The girls can't help but undress you with their eyes,” Thalia teased.

Despite hearing that, Kyle didn't look around but continued staring at the woman before him. “Well? Aren't you going to introduce him?”

Speaking of which, Thalia immediately jerked her head around. “Let me do the introductions. This is Spencer Teal, my boyfriend.”

As she spoke, she looked at Spencer. “And this is the person I often mentioned, my boss, Kyle.”

Hearing that, Spencer gentlemanly walked over and extended his hand. “I've heard much about you.”

At that, Kyle hesitated for a second. Then, he also stood up and shook hands with the man. “Likewise.”

Thalia seemed to have noticed something, her gaze flickering subtly. She asked, “Why are you alone, Boss? Where's Holden?”

“He said he had something to deal with and would come over later,” Kyle replied.

Upon hearing that, Thalia nodded and said, “That's perfect. Since he's not here, there are some things I'd like to tell you in advance.”

Kyle looked at her.

“The thing is, Anthony and the others are leaving this afternoon, and I thought I'd go with them. Once Anthony settles things at home, I'll return with him,” she said, holding the man's gaze. “You don't have any objections, do you, Boss?”

“Are you discussing this with me or informing me?” Kyle asked.

“It depends on how you interpret it.”

Sweeping his gaze over her and Spencer beside her, Kyle started softly, “Do you truly want to escort Anthony, or are you merely using this as an excuse to date?”

Thalia was taken aback for a moment. She then denied, “Of course not. I'm not that kind of person.”

Kyle looked straight at Spencer. “What about you, Mr. Teal? What's your plan next?”

A hint of indifference flashed across Spencer's enchantingly handsome face. Subsequently, he murmured, “I'll be going with them.”

Following his answer, Kyle quirked a brow slightly.

Seeing that, Thalia immediately said, “It's just a coincidence. Verily, it's fortuity. Besides, he has his own motives, and I have mine.”

Kyle rolled his eyes at her. “Do you even believe what you're saying?”

“Of course, I believe in my own words,” Thalia stated matter-of-factly.

Kyle eyed her, his gaze brimming with helplessness.

“You've been hanging around with Anthony for a while now, and I must say, you've certainly become quite glib,” Kyle remarked with his eyes on her.

When Thalia heard that, her lips curled into a smile. “Really? I wouldn't have noticed if you hadn't pointed it out. It seems that following Anthony around has its perks after all.” While saying that, she arched a brow, looking quite adorable.

As Spencer watched from the side, he frowned slightly at the sight of Thalia acting so childishly in front of Kyle.

Nonetheless, Thalia's gaze remained fixed on Kyle. “Well, what do you say? Do you have any objections? Just give me a straight answer!”

“Yes!”

Words eluded Thalia for a moment. “Are you really pushing me to use my ultimate move?”

“What can you do about it?”

“Don't forget that I recruited back two major players for you on my trip this time. Yet, you're planning to abandon me once my help is no longer needed?”

“How could you claim to have recruited Anthony and Benjamin when they were already members of Darknetz?”

“If it weren't for me, would you have known Anthony? And if it weren't for me, would you have been aware of Benjamin's talent?” Thalia retorted.
