Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 547

Chapter 547

Kenneth lowered his eyes. “I don't have any plans. I'm just going to do whatever works!”

Frowning, Anthony looked at him with a suspicious gaze. “Daddy, are you serious? Or are you kidding me?”

Instead of answering the question, Kenneth looked at the boy and asked, “What do you think?”

“Daddy!” Anthony's gaze remained fixated on his father.

“I'm serious!” Kenneth replied.

The young boy was still in disbelief. “You really don't have any plans?”

“Plans are just plans. I prefer to tackle things head-on. Your enemy won't find out about your plan if you don't have one!” Kenneth stared at his son and enunciated each word slowly.

Suspiciously, Anthony looked at Kenneth. Although his eyes were filled with doubt, he felt that the latter's words made sense.

Pursing his lips, he mulled over it for a while before he asked, “Daddy, aren't you worried unforeseen circumstances will happen?”

“I am worried!” Kenneth replied. “But am I guaranteed not to encounter those circumstances if I have a plan?”

“You must have some ideas, right? For example, what are you going to do?” Anthony questioned, eyeing his father.

“I have some ideas.”

“What is it?”

“To have your Nat leave first!”

“You want to keep Nat in the dark?” Anthony inquired.

“Nat said nothing about these matters. Do you think she'll allow us to do them?” Kenneth responded with a question.

Anthony agreed after thinking about it for a while.

“But Nat can't be fooled easily. What if she finds out?” he then asked.

“The only people who knew about this are you, me, and Dave. How will she know if the three of us say nothing?” Kenneth replied.

Immediately, Anthony sat upright. “I will never tell her.”

Kenneth glanced at his son. “I believe you.”

Just then, Anthony looked at him and contemplated for a second before saying, “Actually, when Anonymous posted a bounty list on Hacker Community a while ago, he had already angered Vermillion Base. Previously, their hackers attacked Darknetz. Now, they've become sworn enemies with Darknetz.”

Hearing how calmly Anthony mentioned the name “Anonymous,” Kenneth merely raised one brow and did not show any expression. “So what?”

“Given the chance, I want to—”

“There's no need to!” Kenneth interrupted Anthony instantly.

The boy's gaze fell on him. “Daddy...”

“I don't need Darknetz to take revenge on my behalf!” Kenneth declared.

“Daddy, you're not the only one who wants revenge. I want it, too. She's my Nat!” Anthony retorted.

“She's my woman!” Kenneth said promptly after that.

The father and son locked their eyes, both staring at each other.

“I came out of her womb, so I'm closer to her than you!” Anthony said.

At the mention of that, Kenneth sneered. “If it wasn't for me, you won't even be born. Although I'm not as close to her as you are, you're not as tight-knitted to her as me.”

Hearing that, Anthony was at a loss for words.

They continued staring each other down. It seemed like neither of them would admit defeat.

“Daddy, if you must put it that way, does this mean we can't come to an agreement?” Anthony asked.

“I'm just telling you that I can seek my own revenge!” Kenneth exclaimed.

“So, you're saying that I can't get involved in this matter?”

“If you can do this without getting Darknetz involved, I won't stop you!” Kenneth riposted.

“Daddy, you're deliberately making things difficult for me!” replied Anthony.

“So be it!”

The young boy nodded. “Fine. If that's the case, then don't blame me for what I'm about to do!”

Kenneth gazed at Anthony. “What do you mean?”

The latter smiled. “If you don't allow me to participate, then I have no choice but to tell Nat about this matter.”

“No, you won't!” Kenneth declared.

“You don't believe me?” Anthony raised his brow.

The only response the boy received from his father was a look. Indeed, the latter did not believe him.

“Let's go, then!” With that, Anthony got up and left.

Seeing that, Kenneth stood up and followed him.

Throughout the journey, Anthony walked without saying a word. Kenneth looked at him while following behind him slowly and quietly.

After they entered the castle and went upstairs, Anthony walked straight to Natasha's room.

Kenneth watched him with a complicated gleam in his eyes.

The whole time, the father and son seemed to be on a secret showdown. It was as though whoever spoke first would be the loser.

However, they remained silent even until they arrived at Natasha's doorstep.

Anthony glanced at Kenneth and was thoroughly enraged when he noticed the latter was still shooting him a doubtful look.

Okay! If that's the case, don't blame me!

After pushing the door open, Anthony exclaimed, “Nat! Daddy said he wants to avenge you!”

Kenneth was too stunned to speak.

The development of events was beyond his expectations. He thought Anthony would at least have a warm-up conversation first. Yet, the latter was so upfront about the situation.

As soon as Kenneth walked into the room, he opened his mouth to explain himself urgently. However, no one was there after he entered the room.

Both of them looked around and asked at the same time, “Where is she?”

At that moment, the sound of water flowing came from the bathroom. Soon after, Natasha came out. Upon seeing them, she studied them from head to toe and asked, “Why are you two here?”

“Nat, I have something to tell you,” said Anthony.

Natasha's gaze fell on him. “What is it?”

“Daddy wants to—” Before the boy could finish his sentence, Kenneth walked over and covered his mouth. The latter part of Anthony's sentence was all but a muffled word.

Natasha stared at them, utterly confused.

Then, Kenneth flashed her a smile.

“What is going on?” she asked.

“It's nothing. We're just fooling around!” Kenneth answered.

“Fooling around?” Natasha looked at him with a teasing expression. “Am I silly? Or do you guys think I'm a fool?”

To her, their behavior was nowhere near ”fooling around.”

Kenneth looked at her and responded, “We're honestly just fooling around!” At the end of his sentence, he lowered his gaze and looked at Anthony, then warned the latter with a look that only the both of them could understand. “Am I right, Anthony?”

Even though Anthony's mouth was covered by Kenneth, the boy did not struggle nor move around. All he did was raise his eyes to look at his father.

“Let's talk about this outside.” Kenneth lowered his voice.

Anthony shook his head resolutely. The look in his eyes seemed to tell Kenneth that none of them would have a good ending unless the latter agreed to his request.

Kenneth took a deep breath before replying, “I promise you.”

Anthony arched his brow slightly as a smile finally crept onto his face.

Just then, Natasha walked toward the duo. “You two have been exchanging glances continuously right in front of me. Do you think I can't see what you're doing?”

“Of course not.” After achieving a mutual agreement with Anthony, Kenneth finally let go of him uneasily.

Natasha glanced at Kenneth before placing her gaze on Anthony. “Tell me, Anthony,” she said smilingly.

Anthony darted a look at his father and said, “Nat, Daddy bribed me. He doesn't allow me to tell you.”

Kenneth was dumbfounded.

At that moment, Natasha shot a warning look at the man, but her gaze returned to Anthony a second later. “So, you just decided not to tell me?”

After pretending to contemplate the matter for a while, Anthony responded, “Hmm... I'm still siding with you, Nat. I can't be bribed by Daddy.”

“That's more like it,” answered Natasha.

“Actually, I know about Daddy's secret,” Anthony whispered.

“What secret?” she asked.

The boy's eyes roamed over his parents before he said, “Daddy wants to propose to you.”

Natasha was rendered speechless, while Kenneth was confused.

Their eyes met.

At that moment, Anthony spoke. “Nat, it's up to you to decide whether or not you want to agree to his proposal. You two can continue to chat. I'll go out first!” Afterward, he left the room without giving Natasha and Kenneth a chance to speak.
