Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 452

Chapter 452

At that moment, Boss curled his lips. “Don't worry. I won't affect your plan.”

“Okay. I'm glad to hear that.” Natasha nodded in relief before getting back to enjoying her meal as if his injury was a minor hindrance to her.

She could not care less as long as he did not disrupt her plan.

Although he did not establish any form of relationship with her, the acknowledgment of her reaction annoyed him.

He shot her a meaningful look and said nothing. Then, he left the restaurant with the help of his subordinate.

After he left, Natasha continue to sit in her spot and ate her food. Despite her graceful and casual demeanor, she was actually feeling curious and bewildered.

From her conversation with Boss earlier, she realized there was a conflict between Boss and Kenneth, not to mention a fatal conflict.

More importantly, if her guess was correct, Kenneth was also here, and he was there because of her.

Besides, she reckoned that Boss and Kenneth must still be in touch with one another.

She had said all those things earlier because she had considered that point. She did not want to let Boss know, nor did she want him to stir anything between Kenneth and her.

Her heart palpitated for some reason when she thought of that.

Before her departure, Natasha had left everything in Kenneth's care, including Terrence, because she believed Kenneth would make it.

Unexpectedly, he had followed her to Spaunia.

Natasha was not questioning Kenneth's feelings toward herself. It was because she lacked the self-confidence to think that someone would do that for her.

Even until that moment, Natasha remained doubtful.

Despite her skepticism, she knew she had to clarify that matter as soon as possible.

Only then could she prevent the most undesirable situation from happening.

Meanwhile, Dave found an ordinary hotel.

The number of people there was less to begin with. Therefore, the hotel they stayed in did not have many occupants.

That night, Anthony, Benjamin, and Thalia were sitting on the balcony outside.

Right then, Dave had just finished talking on the phone. When he saw the three of them sitting there, he walked over.

Anthony looked at Dave and asked, “How are things, Mr. Dave? Did you manage to contact Daddy?”

Dave gazed at Anthony and shook his head.

Anthony was a little disappointed to hear that.

“I asked Miguel to track your daddy's location, but to no avail,” Dave said.

“Daddy's phone is installed with a chip, so there's no way to track his device,” Anthony replied.

Dave narrowed his eyes. “How did you know that?”

Anthony was stumped. He could not possibly tell Dave that he had tried locating his father using that method before.

Anthony considered answering that the existence of the chip was the most plausible reason among many others.

Still, despite thinking of that excuse, Anthony responded honestly, “I-I saw it by accident.”

Dave regarded Anthony with a pensive look in silence afterward.

“We can't continue searching aimlessly, right?” Benjamin said. Then, he turned to look at Dave. “Mr. Dave, do you have any other idea?”

“I do,” Dave replied.

“What?”

“We wait.”

Anthony and Benjamin were rendered speechless.

What a ridiculous idea.

“This is the only thing left for us to do,” Dave said.

Anthony stared at Dave. “Mr. Dave, we don't have much time left. Who knows what Daddy will do the next moment? We must find him and stop him now. Otherwise, things will spiral beyond our imagination.”

“Do you have a better idea, then?” Dave asked.

Anthony frowned because he could not come up with any constructive suggestion.

Once Kenneth decided not to answer their calls or reply to their messages, the chances of locating him would be extremely slim. After all, Kenneth was a capable man. It was effortless for him to avoid their tracking.

Thalia, sitting at one side, swept her eyes across them and could not help but sneer.

Hearing the sound, Dave shifted his gaze onto her. “What's the matter? Do you have any good idea?”

“I don't.” Thalia shook her head.

Dave glanced at her and swiftly looked elsewhere.

“However, I do have a wicked suggestion,” she said.

Dave, Anthony, and Benjamin gazed at her simultaneously upon hearing that.

“What wicked suggestion do you have?” Anthony asked.

“We may not be able to find Kenneth, but I suppose we can locate his car?”

They continued to stare at her.

“We can just burn the car. Then he'll know, right?”

Anthony and Benjamin exchanged glances. That's an idea!

“What? Do you have a grudge against me?” Dave piped up.

“Personally, there isn't. But the same cannot be said, organization-wise,” Thalia replied with a faint smile.

Dave snickered. “Do you know how much that car is?”

“I don't know. That's not my car anyway, so how would I know?”

“There are only two units of that car available worldwide, and each unit is worth over one hundred million. No, that's not right. To be more precise, you can't purchase that car regardless of how much money you have.”

Thalia did not seem to care about Dave's speech. “So what? Are you saying your best friend's life is not as worthy as a car?”

“You—”

“Okay, I did mention this is a wicked suggestion. You all can just forget I ever said this. After all, Kenneth's life and death have nothing to do with me.”

Anthony and Benjamin were at a loss for words.

Can you not say those words in such a casual manner? Daddy's life and death may have nothing to do with you, but it is highly relevant to us!

At that thought, they turned to look at Dave.

They wanted to say something but found the words stuck in their throats.

After all, it was a good virtue not to inflict on others what they did not desire to happen to themselves.

Even at that critical moment, Anthony and Benjamin could not bring themselves to make such a request to Dave.

In the end, the two boys merely gazed at him.

Dave turned his head around and looked at them, seemingly sensing their conflicting minds from their gazes.

After pondering for a moment, he said, “This is indeed a wicked idea.”

Anthony and Benjamin kept quiet as they pursed their lips, not knowing how to respond.

“Although this method is wicked, it should be effective.”

The boys looked up at Dave in bewilderment.

“I don't know if this plan will work, but it is worth a try.”

“Mr. Dave, you—”

“Don't worry. I will ask your daddy to compensate me in the future.” Dave's eyes flashed with determination and reassurance.

“No. We'll ask Daddy to reimburse you double the amount! No, wait! Triple or quadruple the amount!” Anthony exclaimed.

Dave laughed at the sight of Anthony's excited demeanor. “Are you trying to make your daddy go bankrupt?”

“That's all right. Even if that happens, I can still take care of him,” Anthony replied.

Dave guffawed. Then he lifted his arm and glanced at the time. “All right, it's about time now. Let's go.”

Anthony was momentarily dazed. “Where are we going?”

“Aren't we going to burn the car?”

Anthony blinked. “N-Now?”

“It's late at night, and there's no one around. This is a perfect time.”

“But—”

“That's enough. Quit hesitating. Let's hurry up and go,” Thalia piped up and got to her feet impatiently.

Anthony and Benjamin had no choice but to follow Dave and Thalia.
