Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 307

Chapter 307

Aware that Benjamin and Natasha were forcibly trying to compensate for their slip of the tongue, Kenneth lowered his eyes and took a bite of the eggs.

It was indeed edible, but the taste was average.

When he noticed Natasha eating with relish, he remarked, “Don't eat anymore. I'll order breakfast.”

Natasha lifted her eyes and drawled, “There's no need to order for me. I'm not picky, so this is pretty good for me.”

“You don't have to order for me either, Daddy! I find the food passable as well!” Denise chimed in.

“I've got enough, too,” Anthony echoed.

Benjamin said nothing but used his actions to indicate that he didn't need any more food either.

At the sight of them all eating with gusto, the corners of Kenneth's mouth inexorably curved upward.

Turning his gaze to the breakfast fare in front of him, he suddenly felt that it was quite good.

Right that moment, Denise leaned close to him. “Daddy, your cooking is far better than Nat's!”

Just as Kenneth wanted to pursue that subject further, Natasha feigned a cough. “Badmouthing people is to be done behind their backs.”

Hearing that, Denise furtively stuck out her tongue. She didn't continue speaking but buried her head in the food.

As Kenneth gazed at the children and Natasha, he knew that he had really missed out on a lot of meaningful moments.

In the future, I've got to use more time to make up for all the time I missed.

He then continued eating breakfast. Despite the average taste, his elegant movements perfected the ambience of the breakfast.

Right then, Anthony was scrolling through his phone. When he glimpsed a piece of news, his eyes abruptly widened. In the next second, he snagged the remote control and turned on the television.

A piece of news with a video was being broadcasted on television.

“Yesterday afternoon, two people were found at the center of the river, with their hands bound. They seemed to have been in the water for a long time. At present, they are still unconscious. As for further details, we'll only know after they regain consciousness...”

In the video, the rescue team fished Hans and Thea out of the river. Both of them had passed out. There was even an ambulance at the scene. After they were rescued, they were taken to the hospital right away.

The entire family watched that scene as they enjoyed breakfast.

“How lucky of them that they're still alive!” Benjamin muttered, his eyes brimming with hatred and resentment.

“They can only be punished and atone for their sins better when they're still alive!” Kenneth asserted, his gaze turning solemn.

Anthony cast Kenneth a sidelong glance, but the man averted his gaze directly and continued eating with his eyes lowered. However, everyone could sense that the temperature around him had plummeted drastically.

Natasha, on the other hand, merely spared the news a glance without saying anything.

She wouldn't comment further after doing some things. That was her temperament and character.

After breakfast, Natasha got ready to go to work. Unexpectedly, Kenneth approached her after taking a call.

“Nat, how about sending the kids to the Hamilton residence for a few days? Grandpa is at home, so he'll be able to take better care of them. It'll also be more convenient for Old Mr. Watson over there,” Kenneth proposed.

Upon hearing that, Natasha nodded. “Sure!”

Thus, Kenneth turned and looked at the three children. All three of them said nothing and went straight into their rooms to pack.

A few minutes later, they had all packed a small bag each and stood in a line orderly.

It was evident that they were eager to go to the Hamilton residence.

Well, this is a good thing.

Natasha pinned her eyes on them. “Let's go!”

The three children followed them downstairs.

In the car, Kenneth drove while Natasha scrolled through her phone beside him. Meanwhile, the three children sat in the back seat.

Denise studied the two people in front with perceptive eyes.

Why don't I sense any awkwardness between Mommy and Daddy? Shouldn't there be a charged tension between them when they'd finally reconciled after so long?

Countless questions lingered within her.

In no time, they arrived at the entrance of Natasha's office.

Before alighting from the car, Natasha turned to the three children behind her. “Behave while you're at the Hamilton residence, okay? Don't anger your great-grandpa.”

The three children nodded in unison.

“Got it!”

Natasha wanted to say something else, but as she gazed at them, she ultimately suppressed that urge.

“I'll be going in, then,” Natasha remarked.

With his gaze trained on her, Kenneth murmured, “There are quite a lot of things to be settled in the office today, so I can't come over at noon to eat with you. I'll come and pick you up after work tonight.”

Natasha nodded in acquiescence.

After getting out of the car, Natasha pivoted and walked toward the building.

Kenneth waited for her to enter the building, still spacing out even when her figure had disappeared from sight.

At that precise moment, Denise, who was behind him, asked, “Don't you think that Nat is really pretty?”

Jolting back to reality, Kenneth looked over his shoulder at his daughter, only to see her beaming from ear to ear.

He smiled as he started the car. “Yeah, she's pretty.”

Whoa! Look how suggestive that sounded!

Leaning forward, Denise whispered into his ear, “Daddy, did you share a room with Nat yesterday when you stayed?”

In response, Kenneth nodded nonchalantly. “Didn't you see it this morning?”

At his reply, Denise grew inexplicably thrilled. “So, did you and Nat... do it last night?” Denise tapped her index fingers together, her meaning clear as day.

Meanwhile, Anthony and Benjamin had both perked up their ears as well.

“What do you mean?” Kenneth feigned ignorance.

“Well...” Denise turned it over in her mind before asking, “Are you both planning to give me a brother or sister?”

As Kenneth drove, he languidly quirked an eyebrow upon hearing that. “You want a sibling?”

“Of course. Then, I won't be the youngest anymore. The baby will have a name starting with the alphabet F!” Denise fantasized.

“Why won't his or her name start with the alphabet E?”

“There's already someone whose name starts with the letter E!” While saying that, Denise brandished her precious doll in her hand.

Kenneth was speechless.

Sure enough, she's Natasha's daughter, giving names so casually and carelessly!

Nonetheless, whatever the name was made no difference to him.

“Then, do you prefer a brother or a sister?” Kenneth asked.

“A sister!” Denise answered without an ounce of hesitation.

“Why?”

“Because I'll have someone helping me to deal with Tony and Ben in the future! It'll be two against two!” The mere thought of it delighted Denise.

Contrarily, both Anthony and Benjamin didn't know how to respond.

At that, Kenneth nodded. “Okay, I got it.”

“So, Daddy... did you and Nat...” Denise wore a hopeful expression, for she had just bickered with Anthony over that matter yesterday.

“Don't worry, for I'll do my best!” Kenneth promised, glancing at her through the rear-view mirror.

As soon as Denise heard that, a smile bloomed on her face. “I trust you, Daddy!”

Chuckling, Kenneth shifted his gaze to Anthony and Benjamin in the back seat. “What about the two of you? Would you like a brother or a sister?”

“Neither!”

“It doesn't matter as long as Mommy is happy!”

Anthony and Benjamin spoke simultaneously.

Kenneth went silent, for he could tell that they couldn't accept that fact happily like Denise.

Sure enough, having sons is equivalent to creating enemies for oneself! Although we've acknowledged each other, they still harbor a sense of wariness toward me. It's as though they don't mind me being their father, but they would never agree to me sullying their mother.

He started racking his brain to find a solution to get them on his side.
