Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 872

Chapter 872 The Closest Distance To The Heart

“What do you think?” Natasha retorted, “What else would I be doing at this time if not sleep?”

Upon hearing Natasha's voice and her words, Anthony's anxious heart finally calmed down.

He smiled slightly. “That's true.”

“What's wrong? Is there something going on?” Natasha asked.

“No, nothing's wrong. It's just...” Anthony glanced around and happened to catch Denise's eager gaze, so he immediately explained, “It's just that Denise was missing you, so she asked me to call you to check in!”

Everyone was speechless.

Obviously, Anthony was the one who missed Natasha.

Over there, Natasha directly asked, “When will you guys be back?”

“In another two days at most!” Anthony replied.

“Two days and then another two days. It's been quite a few 'two days' already!” Natasha expressed her dissatisfaction.

“This time it's real!” he promised.

“All right, got it. Come back soon!”

“Will do!”

“All right then, I'm going back to sleep!” Natasha murmured.

“Okay!”

And so, the phone call ended.

At that moment, all eyes at the table were on Anthony.

When he looked up, he could not help but ask, “What's wrong? Is there a problem?”

“Anthony, why do you always use me as an excuse?” Denise asked.

Anthony retorted, “What do you mean I'm using you as an excuse? Don't you miss Nat?”

“I-I mean... I do miss her, but don't you think I could have called her personally?”

“No need. I already called her and passed on the message for you so you can save some trouble,” Anthony said.

Denise was speechless.

It was evident that Anthony was feeling embarrassed and awkward.

“Ah, my stomach feels a bit uncomfortable. Miguel, can you keep an eye on things for me? I need to go to the restroom!” Without waiting for a response, Anthony got up and headed toward the room.

Thalia looked at Anthony with a gaze full of mockery.

At that moment, Benjamin said softly from the side, “Anthony has inadvertently dissolved everyone's resentment toward him. His skill in doing so is becoming more polished.”

Upon hearing this, Thalia was slightly stunned. “Oh, right!”

Benjamin's words had reminded her that she still had not settled the score with Anthony.

She immediately stood up and looked at Anthony's figure. “Anthony, why are you running? Don't think everything will be fine just because you ran away!”

However, all she managed to catch was his retreating figure. Anthony slipped into the room and immediately closed the door behind him.

The saying “out of sight, out of mind” could not be more true in this case.

On the other hand, as soon as Natasha hung up the phone, Kenneth walked over from the side.

Seeing that she was awake, Kenneth asked, “What's wrong? Whose call was it?”

Natasha, who was dressed in a white nightgown, stretched lazily and curled up like a cat. She said, “Who else could it be?”

“Anthony?” he guessed.
