Natasha gaped at Liam.
Despite knowing that his remark was meant as a consolation to her, she still felt exceedingly
grateful.
“Thank you, Old Mr. Hamilton,” she murmured.
“Why are you treating me like a stranger when we’re a family?” Liam countered with a smile.
Natasha’s gaze remained on the man, but she said nothing further.
A family?
Upon hearing that, Kenneth arched his brows slightly and turned his gaze to Natasha.
When he noticed that she wasn’t denying it, the corners of his mouth lifted imperceptibly.
Just then, Liam walked over to Kenneth and glowered at him. “Brat, you didn’t even bother to
inform me when such a serious thing happened, huh? If it weren’t for Zeke, I’d still be in the dark!”
A smirk tugged at Kenneth’s lips. “I just regained consciousness as well. I was going to tell you,
but I didn’t have the opportunity to do so.”
“If it weren’t in consideration of the fact that you did something decent and saved Nat, I would have
severed all ties with you!”
“Can you really bring yourself to do that?”
“Why not?”
“If you sever all ties with me, then you can’t acknowledge Denise and Benjamin as your great-
grandchildren anymore. I’ll take them away with me,” Kenneth drawled.
In response, Liam frowned. “Why are you so delusional? I’ve already told you that those two kids
have nothing to do with you!”
“That’s not for you to decide.” While saying that, Kenneth looked at Natasha.
A faint smile hovered over his lips, and the look in his eyes was incredibly amorous.
Startled, Liam swung his gaze to Natasha as well.
“What’s this, Nat?”
Natasha deliberated for a while before admitting, “Old Mr. Hamilton, they… are indeed the children
of the Hamilton family. I’m sorry for keeping you in the dark for so many years.”
Her admission meant that Liam could also be openly affectionate with the children and shower
them with love without restraint.
Like Terence, I’m also a recognized great-grandpa for real! In the future, I no longer have to take
my cue from him to be affectionate with the two kids! Gosh, I’m thrilled at the mere thought of it!
However, when he glimpsed Kenneth’s smug expression, he lamented in exasperation, “Why did
you admit to it so easily?”
Kenneth was instantly rendered speechless.
His smile faded, and a frown marred his countenance. “You seem dissatisfied with this result?”
Liam scowled at him. “I don’t want to be threatened by you!”
“I’m afraid I’ve got to disappoint you, then.” At the thought that Natasha had finally admitted that
the two children were his, Kenneth couldn’t help the upturn of his lips.
At that exact moment, however, something abruptly occurred to him.
At the last moment yesterday, a child rushed out. Not only did he rain blows and kicks on Gary, but
he also almost stabbed him.
His eyes narrowing a fraction, he studied Natasha. “Don’t you have something else to tell me?”
Natasha froze for a moment with her eyes pinned on him. “What is it?”
“There was another kid yesterday. What’s up with that?” Kenneth’s gaze fixated on her.
Upon hearing that, Natasha pursed her lips.
Liam was stunned for a moment, and he alternated his gaze between the two of them. “What’s this
about another kid? What does that mean? What are you two talking about?”
Kenneth said nothing, merely staring straight at Natasha.
He had glimpsed the child’s face, and it was at such a time to boot. Alas, he didn’t have time to
speak much last night, but that didn’t mean that he was entirely ignorant and harbored no
suspicions.
Natasha remained silent.
I thought he would miss that, but it ultimately didn’t escape his attention.
“Aren’t you going to explain about that?” Kenneth questioned with his eyes trained on her.
After pondering for a while, Natasha nodded. “Yeah, it’s exactly as you reckon.”
Kenneth’s eyes brimmed with delight and excitement.
As he looked into Natasha’s eyes, his euphoria was almost beyond words.
Meanwhile, Liam was on pins and needles as he watched them both. “What exactly are you two
talking about? The suspense is killing me!”
“So, he’s also my child?” Kenneth asked, wholly ignoring the man’s anxiousness.
It was as though the two of them were speaking in riddles. Natasha eyed the man. “Why don’t you
ask him when he comes over and see whether he’s willing to admit to it?”
Who cares whether he admits to it? Is that important? The point is, he’s also my child, okay?
“So, it’s not two but three?” Kenneth affirmed while forcibly suppressing his excitement.
Natasha pressed her lips into a thin line. She brooded for a long while before querying with her
eyes pinned on him. “Are you surprised?”
Not only was Kenneth surprised, but he was also indescribably thrilled, albeit he couldn’t quite
figure out everything.
“How many more secrets are you keeping from me, Natasha?” the man demanded. Would there
be a fourth or even fifth one?
“Don’t worry, for this is the last one who’s related to you!”
“That had better be true!” Kenneth huffed.
At the side, Liam was all agitated as he watched them bicker.
“What’s this about twos and threes? What exactly are you two talking about?” he inquired
anxiously.
Kenneth turned his gaze to the man. “Don’t you always grumble that the Hamilton family has few
descendants? Now, you don’t have to worry about that anymore!”
“What does that mean?” Liam queried.
As Kenneth cast his mind back to Anthony’s countenance, the corners of his lips curved upward.
“It means that—”
Just when he was about to answer, the door was pushed open.
Anthony and Thalia walked in, laden with bags. “Nat, I bought you breakfast—”
Before Anthony had finished speaking, he halted in his tracks upon noticing the crowd in the room.
Kenneth is awake, and Old Mr. Hamilton is here as well.
His gaze alighting on them both, he scrutinized them.
Likewise, they regarded him intently.
Uh… Would it be too late for me to back out of the room now?
In a flash, the atmosphere turned awkward.
Kenneth stared at him with narrowed eyes.
At that precise moment, Liam exclaimed emotionally, “A-A-Aren’t you the kid from the other day?
Why are you here?” While saying that, he walked up to Anthony and looked at him.
“I…” Not quite sure how he should explain things, Anthony surreptitiously glanced at Natasha. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
Nonetheless, Liam continued in sheer excitement, “Kenneth, this is the kid I was speaking to you
about the other day, the one who persuaded me to take my medicine and gave me sweets!
Doesn’t he look very much like you?”
Looking at Kenneth, he rambled happily with a justified expression on his face.
Kenneth said nothing, his dark eyes fixated on Anthony.
Focusing his attention back on Anthony, Liam commented, “He looks exactly the same as you
when you were young, resembling you even more than Denise and Benjamin…”
As he spoke, he suddenly sensed something amiss. He looked at Anthony before shifting his gaze
to Kenneth and Natasha.
A long while later, he stammered, “Earlier, you were speaking of twos and threes. Don’t tell me this
is the third one?” While asking that, he gaped at them incredulously.
Kenneth remained silent.
Natasha didn’t deny it either.
Therefore, the answer was as clear as day.
“H-H-He is your child as well?” Liam queried in astonishment, stuttering badly.
However, no one said anything or answered him.
Therefore, he turned and gawked at Anthony. “Kid, tell me your name and who your mommy is.”
