No sooner had he finished speaking than Anthony turned his gaze toward him.
Anthony understood very well what he meant.
Looking at him, Anthony furrowed his brows. “What are you talking about?”
Benjamin immediately spoke up. “Isn't it? Don't you think you're too attached...?”
He didn't finish his sentence, but he knew Anthony would understand.
Taking a deep breath, Anthony looked at his brother. “And what about you? You know well about Nat's health. I told you to take care of her before. Did you even listen to me?”
“I...”
“I see you eating well, sleeping soundly, looking carefree. What's the matter? Just because you're well, so everyone else in the family shares that same luxury?” Anthony asked him sharply.
Benjamin was rendered speechless.
It was unclear whether it was due to the intimidation from his older brother or a sense of guilt, but Benjamin found himself truly at a loss for words as he looked at Anthony.
After a moment of hesitation, he still tried to defend himself. “Nat is not as delicate as we imagined, and I think we can see Nat sooner or later, isn't it? There's no need for you to be so concerned that you don't even want to eat or drink.”
Anthony wanted to be angry, but he knew clearly that Benjamin was unaware of Natasha's poisoning. Otherwise, the latter's attitude would definitely not be the same.
Anthony wanted to be angry and lose his temper, but Benjamin, who knew nothing, wasn't wrong either.
With those thoughts in his mind, he forcefully suppressed his anger. Looking at Benjamin, Anthony spoke helplessly. “Forget it.”
Just then, a series of sounds came from the distant door.
Anthony's gaze swept across, and he saw Kenneth walk out of the room.
When Anthony saw Kenneth, his eyes instantly lit up. Without any hesitation, he approached Kenneth. “Daddy.”
Kenneth looked at his son. “Why are you up so early?”
At that moment, Benjamin, who was closely following behind, spoke up. “Tony has been waiting at the door for quite a while now. He can't feel at ease without seeing Nat.”
At that, Kenneth's gaze fell on Anthony.
With a smile, Anthony said, “I just had a nightmare, that's all. So, has Nat woken up yet?”
Kenneth hesitated for a moment, then nodded. “Yes.”
“I'll go check on her inside,” said Anthony, preparing to enter.
Suddenly, Kenneth turned around. “Anthony...”
“Yes?” Anthony, whose hand was placed on the door handle, turned to look at Kenneth.
Looking at him, Kenneth hesitated for a moment. The words he wanted to say ultimately remained unspoken. “Go on in. I'll go down and prepare some food for Nat.”
Anthony paused slightly, then nodded after a moment.
Watching Kenneth leave, Anthony finally pushed the door open and headed into the room.
Benjamin stood to the side, watching their interaction, his brows furrowing slightly. How strange and peculiar.
Watching Anthony, they walked in together.
Meanwhile, inside the room, Natasha was half-sitting on the bed, engrossed in her phone, her auburn hair casually draped over her shoulders, giving her the appearance of a fairy who had somehow found herself in the mortal world.
Seeing that she was fine, Anthony instantly felt a sigh of relief.
