Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 378

Chapter 378

The boys stared at Thalia unmovingly as worry colored their expressions.

She turned back to them and urged, “Go! Now!”

Anthony seemed grim as he ordered, “Be careful.”

“Don't worry.” The edges of her mouth curved upward. As she stared at the approaching car, her smile became more profound.

“Do you have an extra gun?” Benjamin suddenly asked.

That gave Thalia pause before she pulled one out. “I do.”

“Give it to me. If there's any problem, I'll be able to support you when needed.”

She didn't hesitate and handed the gun to him. “I don't need support. You just need to protect yourselves.”

No explanation was given by him as he grabbed the gun and played with it. He also checked the number of bullets inside as though he was intimately familiar with the weapon.

Seeing how familiar he was with the weapon caused Thalia to frown. She wanted to ask a question, but since the car was approaching, she reminded, “Be careful. Don't accidentally shoot yourself.”

The boy nodded.

“Go.” She gestured.

The boys promptly entered the forest.

Her tense expression only vanished after she saw the boys disappear into the treeline.

Turning back, she saw the car had stopped a dozen meters away from her.

When the doors opened, three people exited the vehicle.

They walked straight to her when they saw her, and she met them halfway.

Surprise flashed past their eyes when they saw Thalia's facial features. “You're the one who contacted us?”

“That's me.” Her plain voice sounded emotionless.

The trio examined the surrounding before the leader spoke. “You're the only one here?”

Quirking one side of her lips up, Thalia replied, “I alone am more than necessary.”

That person's gaze was fixed on her. While she appeared beautiful, there was a sharpness in her eyes. He could tell she was someone who often wandered at the edges of darkness and someone who he shouldn't underestimate if she got serious.

“Okay, let us see the goods,” he said.

Thalia's gaze swept past them before she turned and ambled toward the warehouse.

The trio followed behind her as they maintained a safe distance from her.

After the warehouse door was opened, she went to a spot and pulled down the cover, revealing four giant crates hiding under it.

The leader of the trio gestured for one of his men to check the crates.

The subordinate approached the crates and opened one of them. When he saw the items inside, surprise flashed across his eyes. He swiftly turned around and nodded at his superior.

Thalia simply stood at the side, watching silently.

It was then the leader asked, “The goods are fine. However, can I ask where you got these?”

“There are rules in this business, and one of them is not asking where the goods come from,” she replied.

The man nodded thoughtfully.

“Where's the money?”

He didn't appear to be in a hurry as he stared at her. “Our boss wants to see you.”

Her eyes narrowed when she heard that. It seems like things aren't going to end smoothly.

She raised her eyebrow as her eyes glinted. “Where's your boss?”

“Outside.”

Thalia's lips curved upward. “Let's go then!”

The trio strolled out of the warehouse first before she followed behind.

It was then another car speedily arrived.

The boys, who were still hiding in the forest, saw all that. Thanks to the bright headlights, they were able to see in the dark.

“As expected, something's wrong.” Anthony stared as the new car headed toward Thalia.

Benjamin tightened his grip around the gun, prepared to fire if necessary. “Should we tell Thalia to run?”

“She knows what to do.” Anthony then spoke into his earpiece. “Don't fight with them, Thalia. As powerful as you are, you can't win against their superior numbers.”

Thalia didn't answer him as she stared at the trio. “Who's your boss?”

“You'll know soon enough.”

The new car was moving so fast that it was creating dust clouds, but it was still able to stop in front of her steadily.

The headlights were so bright that she had to squint.

It was then the door opened, and a man stepped out of the vehicle. She used her hand to block the blinding light.

“Why are you trying to be mysterious when you're already here?” There was mockery in her voice.

The headlights were abruptly turned off. She blinked and finally had a good look at the man. A complicated expression appeared in her eyes as she stared.

Then, a chuckle escaped her lips as she smirked. “It's you.”

It was simultaneously surprising and not surprising to her.

Kenneth closed the door and stared at her with a smirk. Every part of his face, from the tip of his eyebrows to his lips, made him look distant.

Anthony's eyes widened when he saw the person exiting the vehicle. He rubbed his eyes and stared again. It was still the same, familiar figure.

He was stunned for a moment before the gears in his mind quickly turned.

“Don't you think that guy looks like Daddy, Tony?” Benjamin asked with furrowed eyebrows as he stared.

Anthony faced his brother with a heavy expression. “I think it is him.”

“What do we do? Will they fight?” Benjamin was worried because they didn't want to see anyone get hurt.

“Let's see how things go first.”

Benjamin continued to watch the scene unfold with tightly furrowed eyebrows.

Meanwhile, someone whispered into Kenneth's ear after he descended from the vehicle.

That caused him to smile as he stared at Thalia. “I didn't expect we'll meet like this today.”

“Really? Is it truly unexpected, or did you already know?” she questioned without fear.

Ever since that morning, she had a feeling he suspected her after he said all those things to her. She just didn't expect him to seize the opportunity.

“You shouldn't have had ideas about me, Thalia!” he warned one word at a time.

“Since you're already here, stop wasting time talking about nonsense. I'm curious, how did you make my people help you?” At that point, Thalia knew she had been sold out.

“It's not that hard when you have money. Money can solve ninety-nine percent of problems!”

She couldn't help but mumble, “That b*stard! How dare he sell me out!”

It was then Kenneth pulled out a gun and cocked it. “I only warned you before because of the triplets, but now that I've found the evidence, I'm afraid I can't let you stay.”

“What, are you going to kill me?”

Instead of replying, he directly aimed his gun at her.
