Chapter 246 They Love Me A Little More
Terence gazed at the triplets through the rearview mirror as he drove.
They've been acting strangely tonight, especially now. All three of them are not even saying a word. They're all holding their phones and tapping away.
He coughed pointedly. Getting the hint, Natasha looked up and saw him signaling for her to look behind.
She turned around and glanced at the three children sitting behind her.
It was clear to her that they were chatting on their phones because it was not the right time or place to talk out loud.
After taking a glance, she turned away and lowered her head to look at her phone, showing no intention of interfering.
Frowning, Terence hesitated for a brief moment before saying, “Denise.”
“Yes?” Denise jolted to her senses and looked up from her phone.
“When are you going to join the film crew?” he asked, bringing up a random topic.
“First thing tomorrow morning.”
“So soon?”
“Yeah. The sooner I go, the sooner I can return. I wouldn't want some people to get up to something while I'm away,” she replied darkly, her tone directed toward her two brothers next to her.
Anthony and Benjamin did not know what to say as they sat there.
“Oh...” Terence paused as he gazed at the trio in the rearview mirror. Then, he gave a chuckle and said, “How's that possible? There's no way that'd happen. Everyone dotes on you the most!”
“Sometimes, one does something one thinks is right in the name of love. However, one should still ask others whether they're willing or not. Otherwise, couldn't that also be considered a form of moral coercion and injury?” Denise countered.
Terence was dumbstruck. When Denise gets going, there really is no arguing with her.
Anthony and Benjamin looked like they had something to say, but they felt it was not the right time to say anything.
“Forget it.” Having said that, Denise shifted in her seat and turned back to her phone.
Meanwhile, Terence was left wondering when he had ever done something like that. Unable to make head or tail of her response, he glanced at Anthony and Benjamin, then decided to remain silent.
It looks like choosing to ignore them is also a wise choice!
“I'm a little tired, so I'm going to my room to rest. Goodnight, Gramps and Nat,” Denise said as soon as they got home and walked through the doors. With that, she headed straight to her room.
Everyone could tell she was unhappy.
However, Natasha also went directly to her room to rest, seemingly oblivious to what was going on.
Still a little concerned, Terence waited until they had gone to their rooms before turning around and saying, “Anthony, Benjamin...”
“It's nothing, Gramps. It's just that we did something that made her unhappy. We'll handle it ourselves,” Anthony said reassuringly.
When Terence heard that, he nodded repeatedly. “Excellent. As older brothers, remember to be forgiving toward her.”
Benjamin smiled and said, “Don't worry, Gramps. You must be tired after today. Hurry up and go to your room to rest.”
“The two of you should rest earlier too.”
“Okay!”
Terence gazed at them before he, too, went to his bedroom to get some rest.
Anthony and Benjamin were the only ones left in the living room. After exchanging looks, they walked toward Denise's room and knocked on her door.
“If there's anything, we can talk tomorrow!” Denise's dispirited voice rang out from inside the room.
Anthony paused briefly before replying, “All right, then. Rest early.”
Then, he turned and looked at Benjamin.
“Should we...” Benjamin shot Anthony a look.
Anthony nodded, and the two of them crept out the front door.
When Denise came out of her room the following morning, everyone had already packed everything and seemed to be waiting for her.
