Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 971

Inside the camp's room, Thalia was listening to the buzzing sound outside, contemplating whether to look out, when suddenly, the door was pushed open, and Boss walked in from outside.

Upon seeing him, Thalia squinted her eyes.

At that moment, the people who had entered with him said, “Boss, we can't delay any longer. We must leave this place now!”

However, Boss turned a deaf ear as if he hadn't heard anything at all.

Looking at Thalia, his eyes were filled with pity. This face... it's just like my sister's. If she were grown up now, she would probably look like this, right?

Boss approached and looked at her. He was about to reach out and touch her face, but Thalia preemptively swatted his hand away.

“What are you doing?” Thalia retorted, her face flushed with urgency.

“Do you... know a girl named Bella?” Boss asked.

For the first time in such a long while, he spoke with such a gentle voice and tone.

How he wished that the person before him was his sister. Even if all those years of resentment turned into a joke, at least he still had a family member.

However, Thalia spoke up directly. “I don't know her, nor have I even heard of her.”

She knew that what he was looking at was not her, but the mask on her face.

She wasn't particularly curious about what their relationship was. What intrigued her more was how Anthony found out about that.

Boss looked at her. “Let me tell you a story...”

“Can I refuse to listen?” Thalia retorted.

“No!” Boss said outright.

What else could Thalia say?

She rolled her eyes and didn't speak again.

And so, Boss began to tell the story.

“Once upon a time, there was a brother and sister who were so poor that they could barely afford to eat...”

To be honest, Thalia was initially indifferent and didn't pay much attention. However, as she listened further, she found herself somewhat moved.

“And so, she was used as bait to lure the enemy. After that, everyone told me she was dead, but I never believed it. I searched the world over, but there was never any news of her...” As he spoke, he turned around to look at Thalia, “Until I saw you!”

Thalia was stunned.

Looking at Boss' gaze toward her, it was as if he had decided that she was his sister.

Even though she was moved by the story, Thalia merely lamented the death of that young girl. As someone who had experienced being treated as less than human, she considered herself fortunate to have met Spencer. As for that girl, Thalia didn't know if she was as lucky.

Seeing her silent, with an expression that seemed unclear and indistinct, Boss looked at her. “Do you have something to say?”

Thalia narrowed her eyes. Even though she was moved, she remained a clear-headed and rational person.

Looking at him, she said, “Your story is compelling and touching, but unfortunately, I am not your sister. I have memories from when I was one year old and onwards. I know very well who my parents are and how I grew up. So, I am not your sister, and you should not pin your hopes on me!”

Boss looked at her, seemingly a bit unwilling to let go. “Perhaps you've forgotten?”

“I haven't forgotten. I know better than anyone else who I am and where I come from!” Thalia emphasized each word.

However, Boss was unwilling to believe.

After all those years of long search, now that he had finally found someone so similar to Bella, how could he possibly give up so easily?

As he was deep in thought, someone beside him spoke up. “Boss, the situation outside is bad. We must evacuate now!”

Boss narrowed his eyes, then stepped forward and seized her hand. “Bella, come with me!”
