Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 704

Chapter 704

After hearing Spencer's words, Thalia lowered her gaze and murmured, “All right. I thought it was a new idea. I even thought I was being quite smart.”

The corner of Spencer's lip quirked up into a rare smile. “It is indeed an innovative idea.”

His words ignited a tiny flicker of hope in Thalia.

Spencer continued, “Initially, Nat only intended to give you a blood transfusion, but she passed the poison to you. This proves that the poison exists in the blood. However, this also means we can't eradicate the poison without replacing the blood entirely. So it doesn't matter if it's a transfusion or bloodletting; it will only buy you some time before the poison acts up.”

“So you're saying if I agree to bloodlet, I would be able to control the time the poison acts up?” Thalia inquired.

“More or less.”

Thalia held out her arm. “Draw my blood.”

Spencer was rendered speechless.

“Draw my blood. With this, I'll be able to follow you no matter where you go,” Thalia said. “It also means that I can protect you.”

Gazing at her slender arm, Spencer reached out and rolled down her sleeve. “If I really took your blood now, I'm afraid you would be too weak to go anywhere,” he murmured.

“I'll be fine. I can stand losing some blood,” Thalia said.

“Thalia...”

“Spencer, I know you wish to leave. Please take me with you. I promise not to be reckless.” Thalia stared at him. Although she did not elaborate, the fear in her eyes was apparent. She was afraid of being left behind.

She had finally found him after many years of searching, and she never wanted to be left behind ever again.

Pursing his lips, Spencer eyed her seriously. “Thalia, stay here and wait for me. I'll be back before you know it. I promise I won't leave you behind again.”

“Where are you going?” Thalia asked, still worried.

Spencer was well aware of her temperament. If he did not make it clear, she would definitely try to tail him. Perhaps she would even cause a ruckus. Hence, Spencer decided to be frank. “I'm going to get you your antidote.”

Thalia was dumbfounded upon hearing this. She stared at him in surprise. “Are you going to see Boss?”

Spencer nodded in response. “Yes.”

“You can't!” Thalia protested. “Don't go!”

“Why not?”

“You've never interacted with Boss before. You don't understand his abilities. Moreover, the people of Vermillion Base are brutal. It's too dangerous for you to go. I refuse to let you face danger alone,” Thalia cried out.

“Alone? I never said that I was going alone,” Spencer stated.

“Aren't you?” Thalia inquired.

“You seemed to have forgotten that there's someone here who's even more severely poisoned than you are. He's even more frantic than I am. Kenneth, Dave, and the entire DX group will be dispatched.”

Although Thalia relaxed a little after hearing this, she was still very tense.

“Thalia, please let me do this for you. Promise me you'll stay here and wait for me. I promise I'll return quickly,” Spencer begged.

Thalia stared into his eyes. She had never seen him so sincere before, though it must be said that she did not dislike this side of him. She had begun to notice that she may occupy a place in his heart after all. After a moment, she nodded inexplicably. “Okay. I promise.”

Spencer flashed her a faint smile.

Thalia stared at his smile. A second later, she suddenly recalled something. “Oh, please remember that they are professionals. They've been in this line of work for many years. If you really encounter them, try to hide if possible. Don't put yourself at risk.”

Spencer laughed upon hearing her words. “If I don't, how will I be able to get your antidote?”

“Kenneth will be with you. Leave it to him,” Thalia said.

Spencer gazed at her intently. After a moment, he said, “Don't you want me to fight for your sake?”

Thalia's long lashes trembled as she gaped at him. She had never expected Spencer to utter these words.

Staring at him, she gradually gathered her thoughts and said, “I do, but I also don't.”

“Why not?”

Thalia smiled at him. “I'm happy to hear you say that, but I wish for you to live on. That is more important than anything else. So please don't fight for my sake.”

Spencer reached out and caressed her head.

“Please return safely,” Thalia added as she gazed at him.









































“Don't worry. I will.” At that moment, his devilishly striking features were completely serious.

Thalia suddenly thought of something and removed the watch from her wrist. She clasped it around his wrist instead. “Wear this. This will come in handy in a crucial moment.”

Spencer reached out to stop her from putting the watch on him. “No. You keep it.”

“I insist. You must wear this, or I won't be able to stop worrying. You can give this back to me when you return.”

Spencer could not bear to reject Thalia's request after seeing how insistent she was.

Thus, Thalia quickly put the watch on him. She did not forget to throw in a little praise. “Mhmm. Good-looking people look good in anything.”

Glancing at Thalia's smiling face, Spencer raised his wrist and said, “I'll take good care of it.”

“That's for sure.” Thalia gazed at him with twinkling eyes.

Spencer stared into Thalia's eyes, suddenly feeling as if he had gone back to when he had first laid his eyes on her.

Her eyes were pure, yet complicated.

They were worldly, yet innocent.

She looked at him distantly, smiling as if she had known him for a long time.

Memories of long ago suddenly assaulted Spencer. He recalled the scene of Thalia's father's death.

Although the man deserved to die, the young Thalia was innocent.

She became an orphan because of his actions.

At this thought, Spencer looked away and reverted to his usual expression. “All right. It's quite late now. You should rest. There are still some things I need to prepare.”

Thalia was used to his abrupt changes in attitude, so she nodded without thinking much of it. “Okay.”

Having said that, she swiveled around to leave.

At the door, she abruptly turned around and declared, “I'll be waiting for your return.”

Spencer nodded. “Sure!”

Thalia forced out a smile before reluctantly turning around and walking away.

The dark currents in Spencer's eyes surged as he gazed at her retreating figure broodingly.

Thalia, I owe you this. Even if I have to give up my life to do it, I will return it to you so that you can live on.
