Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 400

Chapter 400

Thalia was stunned.

She didn't expect Benjamin to say that. Moreover, after getting to know the boy, she knew that he rarely joked. At that moment, the words that came out of his mouth were like a promise.

Initially, she was just messing around when she asked them to look after her when she was old, but as she looked at Benjamin's serious expression, she felt touched.

She asked, “Are you... serious?”

He nodded solemnly. “Yes, I'm serious!”

“Aww...” Thalia's maternal love flooded as she ruffled the boy's hair and said, “You're such a good boy, Benjamin. You're so smart and loyal! If only you were a few years older, then I will surely marry you.”

Benjamin looked at her calmly, as he was indeed serious about that.

When Anthony heard that, he couldn't help but say, “Wait, didn't you say that you're going to wait for me to grow up?”

“Can't I change my mind?”

“Are all women so fickle?” Anthony asked.

Thalia curled her lips. “As humans, we have to learn to adapt to different situations. We must change our minds right away when we make the wrong choices.”

After saying that, she turned and looked at Benjamin who was sitting across from her. The more I look at him, the more I become fond of him. He's so different from his brother!

Anthony didn't know what to say. “You're just implying that I'm not good enough.”

“Whoa. So you could tell?” Thalia feigned surprise.

Anthony was speechless.

“It's a good thing that you know you're not good enough. Looks like you're not incorrigible after all!” said Thalia.

Anthony took a deep breath. “Women nowadays are so...”

Just as he was about to say something, Thalia glanced over at him. He immediately smiled and swallowed what he was about to say.

“What are you going to say?”

He shook his head. “Nothing!”

Thalia's lips curved in satisfaction. Then, she looked at him and asked, “What's the matter? Are you jealous because I praised Benjamin?”

“Do you think that's possible? How could I get jealous over such trivial matters? Besides, you're complimenting my brother. Why would I be jealous of that?”

“Then what are you babbling about?”

“If I didn't say that, you wouldn't have a sense of accomplishment!” said Anthony.

Thalia rolled her eyes at him. “So, I have to thank you now?”

“You're welcome!” Anthony smiled.

Thalia looked at the smile on his face, which resembled his father, Kenneth, and became inexplicably annoyed. It was probably because she disliked Kenneth.

She narrowed her eyes. “Sure, continue being stubborn. I'll see how long can you keep this up.”

Anthony smiled and stopped saying anything.

Benjamin merely looked at them smilingly.

A friend in need was a friend indeed.

They were lucky to have a friend like Thalia.

The next morning, when Thalia was about to go out, Anthony and Benjamin had already packed their things and were waiting for her in the living room.

Seeing them, Thalia walked over. “What are you two doing up so early?”

“Aren't we meeting the person?” Anthony asked.

“Yeah...” Thalia thought of something and said, “Oh, I forgot to tell you two yesterday that I can go by myself. Don't worry, I will definitely bring the news back to you!”

“No!”

“No!”

The brothers said in unison.

Thalia frowned. “Oh. You two are in sync at times like this.”

Benjamin asked, “Why can't we go?”

“The two of you are still young. I don't want you to be exposed to the public too early. You don't have the ability to protect yourself. What if someone notices something and something happens?” said Thalia.

One of them was a genius, and the other was a gifted person. She was very worried about taking them with her.

“We're just going to ask for some info. Nothing will happen!” Anthony said.

“What if something went wrong?”

“Then you can say that we're your younger brothers. No one will suspect anything!” Benjamin said.

“But—”

“We have to go, Thalia!” Anthony looked at her and said with unwavering determination.

Looking at his gaze, Thalia knew that if she didn't bring them with her, they would still find a way to follow her.

She knew nothing would be able to stop the brothers since they had come all the way here without their father knowing.

However, no matter how high their IQ was, they were still children to Thalia, so she couldn't help worrying.

Therefore, it was better to take them with her.

With that thought in mind, she looked at them and said, “Okay, I will take you there, but I have the say in everything. You don't act without my permission.”

Anthony nodded immediately and said, “Okay.”

Benjamin nodded too.


Benjamin nodded too.

She said with resignation, “Let's go!”

The three of them then went downstairs together.

An off-road vehicle was parked outside the hotel. When Thalia approached it, the hotel's staff immediately walked up and handed the key to her. “Ms. Jacoway, this is your car key!”

“Thank you.” After taking the keys, Thalia immediately hopped into the car, looking cool and sassy.

Thalia was like a goddess in front of outsiders.

The two brothers sat in the back while Thalia drove casually.

Anthony glanced at the interior of the car and asked, “I thought you like sports cars. Why did you rent an off-road vehicle today?”

Thalia grabbed the steering wheel with one hand and looked straight ahead. “My preferences change according to my mood.”

When Anthony heard that, he nodded in agreement. “That's true. Women are always fickle.”

As Thalia looked at him through the rearview mirror, he arched an eyebrow victoriously. Either way, he could still win once in a while.

Thalia looked away and said nothing. The next second, she stepped on the accelerator and the car sped ahead. Anthony, who didn't see that coming, jerked forward due to the inertia and almost fell from his seat.

Fortunately, he grabbed the armrest and steadied himself. He then lifted his head and glared at the woman. “You did it on purpose, Thalia!”

Thalia was wearing huge sunglasses that covered most of her face. Looking at Anthony's furious face in the rearview mirror, she nodded smugly. “Yup, that's right. I did it on purpose!” She made no effort to deny her actions.

Anthony was rendered speechless.

“What? Do you have something to say?” Thalia asked.

Naturally, Anthony had something to say, but he could only keep it to himself at the moment.

There was not much he could do because of the age gap between him and Thalia. He was not as powerful as she was.

I'm too young to fight back! But I must learn to adapt to the situation, so I can only accept that loss.

Thinking of that, he glanced at Thalia with resignation and adjusted his posture, putting on his seatbelt.

Thalia curled her lips in satisfaction when she saw that. Then, she looked ahead and continued speeding ahead.

At that moment, Benjamin asked, “Thalia, how long will it take to arrive?”

“Forty minutes!”
