Chapter 122 Take Me Instead
Kenneth rushed to Natasha’s ward without a second thought.
“Kenneth, don’t go! It’s dangerous!” Thea exclaimed.
Kenneth looked back at her briefly before shoving her away from him and dashing to Natasha’s ward.
Thea fell to the ground, not expecting Kenneth to push her.
Seeing him running toward Natasha’s ward, Thea shouted, “Kenneth, you can’t go there! It’s dangerous!”
However, there was no hesitation in Kenneth’s steps.
Disappointment filled Thea at the sight, but the thought of Kenneth getting hurt drove her to her feet and she gave chase.
Thalia saw through her intentions and stepped in front of her. “This is something between them, so don’t you go messing it up.”
Thea studied Thalia. This girl is pretty too. Her beauty is different from Natasha’s. It has a flair.
“Who are you?” Thea asked impatiently.
“Oh, just an average pretty woman,” Thalia answered with a smile.
Thea wasn’t interested in getting into a verbal fight with her. “Move!” She was about to rush past Thalia, but Thalia persistently blocked her way.
“You—”
Right then, Anthony frantically ran up the stairs. He couldn’t keep up with Thalia without any training and with his short legs.
Reaching the top of the stairs, he saw Thea in a stalemate with Thalia. “Where is he?”
“Kenneth has gone in,” Thalia replied.
Anthony went past the two and rushed toward Natasha’s ward.
Thea stood there staring at Anthony with a dazed look on her face.
That boy’s face and back look just like Kenneth’s. He…
“Who is he?” Thea mumbled.
Flashing a smile at her, Thalia said, “He’s someone you can’t afford to offend.”
She turned around, catching up with Anthony, and walked toward Natasha’s ward.
“Don’t worry. Kenneth is there too. Nothing will happen to your mommy,” Thalia assured.
Mommy?
Thea’s brain stopping working at once.
So Natasha not only has a daughter but a son too? They are all…
Thea didn’t dare to continue to think along that line.
No! That’s impossible!
The lights weren’t on in Natasha’s ward. It was pitch black inside.
A man silently entered her ward and approached her bed with the slight illumination from the light in the corridor. He had a knife in his hand as he inched closer to the bed.
A cruel grin formed on the man’s lips. He then plunged his knife into Natasha, who was sleeping on the bed.
However, he felt the sensation was different. It was soft.
Feeling something was wrong, that man threw the blanket open and saw there was no one underneath.
His pupils constricted as he realized someone was behind him, but before he could turn around, Natasha had already attacked him.
Because of the height difference, Natasha couldn’t land any attacks on his face. Instead, her punch landed on his sternum.
With a loud grunt, the man took a step back from the force.
His eyes caught Natasha in the dark. “I didn’t expect you to know some—”
“Who are you? Why are you trying to kill me?” Natasha questioned.
The man was wearing a hoodie with a hood pulled over his head and face. She couldn’t get a good look at him. Despite the darkness, his eyes were bright.
He touched his chest and swallowed his pain. “Want to know why? Come over here, and I’ll tell you.” He raised the knife into the air, and it glinted brightly under the rays of the moon.
Natasha watched him with her guard up. “I’ve never done anything to you. Why did you try to hurt me again and again?”
“Never done anything to me? It’s your fault that my brother is in prison now! I wouldn’t be left alone if it weren’t for you. I want to avenge him!”
Learning that it wasn’t a group of people who wanted to kill her and her parents, Natasha was slightly relieved.
