By the time Kenneth looked out the window again, the silhouette was already gone.
He frowned. Is there someone who looks more like me apart from Denise and Benjamin?
He smirked self-deprecatingly and drove off.
The scene of Anthony and Kenneth walking past each other made Thalia realize something.
She pulled out her phone and sent Anthony a text using WhatsApp. It read: Wow! I just realized you
look a lot like Kenneth!
After reading the message, Anthony frowned. He wanted to ignore it, but he feared she might start
wondering. Thus, he replied casually: Maybe all handsome guys look the same.
Thalia: Pfft.
Although her reply sounded indifferent, she was still exclaiming on the inside. But they really do look
alike, though!
Meanwhile, Natasha already had her breakfast in the ward.
“Nat.” Anthony walked over to her. “Did you get a good rest last night?”
Natasha looked at him and smiled. “I slept well, thank to you.”
Anthony fell silent.
He recalled the video from yesterday where Natasha saw Thalia.
Is there a hidden meaning behind her words?
Although Natasha did not ask him directly, her gaze seemed to say she knew everything.
Anthony smiled sheepishly and feigned ignorance, asking, “When are Denise and Benjamin coming
back?”
“Maybe a little later.”
“Then, I’ll avoid them once they’re back.”
Natasha glanced at him. “Don’t you envy them?”
“What for?”
“Old Mr. Hamilton is your biological great-grandfather. Now that he knows the existence of Denise and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBenjamin, he pampers them like they’re treasures. Don’t you feel jealous?” Natasha asked, eyeing him.
Although they were more mature than ordinary children, it doesn’t change the fact that they were still
children who desired to be cared for and doted on.
“Gramps asked me the same thing yesterday.”
“Oh? And what was your answer?”
Anthony grinned. “It depends on what they’re trying to do, of course. If they’re trying to take Denise and
Benjamin away from you, then I’m the lucky one. If they’re not, they’ll find out about my existence
sooner or later. Ultimately, I’m the eldest great-grandson of the Hamilton family. And that is a fact no
one can change.”
After hearing his words, Natasha could not help but laugh. Since young, Anthony spoke the least.
Never did she expect such words to come out of his mouth.
Looking at him, Natasha pondered for a while before saying, “Anthony, I’ve never viewed you three as
mine. I truly respect your decisions. No matter who you three choose to follow, I’m happy as long as
you can grow up healthily. Besides, Kenneth might not be a good husband, but he might be a great
father.”
“Logically, if a man does a poor job at being a husband, he won’t do well as a father, too,” said Anthony.
Natasha was stunned, as she found her son’s words somewhat made sense.
Anthony said, “I’m fine with it. But for the sake of my siblings’ physical and mental health, Kenneth still
has to be tested.”
Natasha reached out and ruffled his hair, feeling a sense of relief.
“So, Nat, you don’t have to compromise your principles just because of us. We respect your decision,
too. If you meet a person you like in the future, then go with what your heart decides. Never make
yourself suffer because of us.”
Natasha listened to his every word and nodded. “Don’t worry. I’ll definitely go with what my heart tells
me.”
Anthony flashed her a smile.
His smile lifted Natasha’s mood in an instant. She reached out and pinched his cheeks gently. “Now
that’s more like it. You should smile more. You look cute that way.”
Surprisingly, Anthony flushed with embarrassment. “I’m the older brother. I’ve got to be stricter on
normal days. Otherwise, it’ll be hard to discipline Benjamin and Denise.”
“Yeah, I can see you’ve disciplined them well.”
“Oh, you’re too kind.”
Both of them sounded as if they were having a business conversation.
At that, they could not help but laugh.
The fact that Anthony could chat with Natasha candidly made him relax even more. “Actually, I bumped
into Kenneth when I was entering the building earlier.”
“Really? Didn’t he recognize you?” After all, Anthony bore an uncanny resemblance to Kenneth. No
questions were needed to confirm Anthony’s identity if he was placed in front of Kenneth.
Anthony shook his head. “Maybe it’s not that he didn’t recognize me. I think he was in disbelief.”
Natasha imagined the scene in her head and nodded. “That’s true. After all, no one would’ve expected
two children to become three instead.”
Even she was surprised by the news for some time when she first found out about it.
Having twins was already a challenging task. To her surprise, the final examination revealed she had
triplets. Back then, Natasha was sure that the examination equipment was broken until she gave birth
to the children. Only then did she gradually accept the truth.
“Nat, it must’ve been hard on you when you gave birth to us, right?” Anthony asked suddenly.
Natasha thought about it. “Not really. The joy was greater than the pain.”
Anthony quickly went forward to massage her calves. He never asked that question before. It was not
that he did not want to ask, but he knew it was definitely hard on her. Hence, ever since he got more
mature, he did everything he could on his own.
Even so, he still felt bad for Natasha.
“Nat, once I grow up, I’ll definitely treat you well,” he said.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“You’re already doing that now.”
“It’s not enough. How could this be enough? I’ll make sure you’ll live happily every day in the future!”
Natasha smiled, nodding her head. “Okay.”
Truth was, she was already very happy to see her children every day.
Right then, Terence walked in. “Nat, do you want to take a walk outside? The weather’s quite good out
there.”
Natasha glanced out the window. The weather’s actually quite good indeed. Well, I do need to move
around after lying in bed for two days.
“Sounds good.”
“I’ll help you up,” Anthony offered.
Natasha glanced at him and nodded.
Just like that, with Anthony supporting her, they headed outside.
“Gramps, why don’t you get some rest here? I’ll keep Nat company,” said Anthony.
Terence eyed them for a while before nodding. “Okay. Go ahead, then.”
With that, he sat on the couch to get some rest.
Seeing that, Anthony helped Natasha to walk out of the building.
As they walked along the corridor and chatted at the same time, Natasha caught a glimpse of a
silhouette when she lifted her gaze, stunning her.
Standing ahead of them was a man—about one hundred and eighty centimeters tall—staring at her
intensely.
Natasha could not help but pause in her tracks at the sight of him.
That was the person who pushed me down the stairs when I visited Thomas!
The man was dressed in a hospital gown, and his messy hair covered half of his face. He stood not too
far away and was staring at her creepily with those eyes that looked as if they belong to a dead man.
I remember he fled when I came back to the hospital to investigate the matter. And now he’s back?
Seeing Natasha standing frozen to the spot, Anthony glanced at her. “What’s wrong, Nat?”
Natasha snapped back to her senses and shook her head at the boy. “Nothing.”
By the time she looked ahead again, the man was already gone.
Natasha frowned. Where did he go? Am I seeing things?”
