Chapter 233
Natasha closed her eyes for a moment before saying, “What's the matter? Mr. Hamilton, have you suddenly decided to be a good man?”
“Am I not obvious enough yet?” Kenneth returned the question with a burning gaze. He was only a step away from taking his heart out of his chest to show her what he was thinking about.
“Sorry, but I'm a little blunt, so I've only received the signal today,” Natasha responded.
Right then, Kenneth took a step forward and said in an even lower tone, “Then do you want to ensnare me here? I'm confident that I'd be able to reach your standards of a good
• . • ), man in no time.
Natasha stared at him.
Kenneth could not be any clearer with what he was trying to do.
Moreover, Natasha had no doubts about the care and consideration he had for her.
Just as she was ruminating about what she should say, someone opened the door. Denise came out of her room and said, “Nat, come quickly to take a look at whether or not these clothes are fine.”
Denise had several sets of clothes in her hands.
At that, Natasha snapped back to her senses and turned to Denise.
“Coming.” With that, Natasha walked toward her daughter.
Kenneth curled his lips as he gazed at Natasha's back.
“Is this okay?” Denise asked, still standing by the doorway.
Natasha gave her a once-over before sincerely suggesting, “Yes. Match it with a pair of sports shoes. It's quite
• )) nice.
Denise blinked. “How can these clothes go with sports shoes?”
“They can't?”
Denise could only squeeze out a smile at that.
Why am I asking Nat about this ? I'm the one matching her clothes for her.
Otherwise, with Nat's aesthetic sense... Denise dared not continue with that train of thoughts.
Right then, Kenneth walked over.
“Match it with a pair of boots.”
Denise's eyes lit up. “That's right. Mr.
Handsome's right!”
Nevertheless, Natasha actually furrowed her brows in response. "I think sports shoes would be a fine match!”
Denise muttered, “Nat, why don't you get some rest?” Then, Denise turned to Kenneth and asked, “Mr.
Handsome, can you come and choose one of the garments for me?”
“Sure!” Kenneth nodded.
“Let's go!” Denise then towed Kenneth into the room.
Natasha watched them leave, speechless.
Is she dismissing me now ?
While she was thinking about that, her phone rang.
When Natasha saw that it was a message from Spencer, she walked over to the couch to slowly text him back.
Soon, Kenneth came out of the room.
Natasha lifted her head to give him a glance. “You're done choosing?”
“Yes.” Kenneth bobbed his head.
Natasha continued chatting away on her phone.
“Are you going to go out?”
“Mhm,” Natasha hummed as she nodded.
“Where to?”
“Work.” “Great, I'll give you a lift,” Kenneth offered.
Natasha froze when she heard him, and she raised her head to look at him again. “Great?”
If her memories served her right, Kenneth's office was not in the same direction as hers.
“Yes, I need to go to your office to settle some things,” Kenneth added.
Natasha did not know if that was true or not, but she did not turn down his offer as she inclined her head at him.
Not long after, Denise came out from the room.
She was in a simple khaki-colored dress with a white scarf as an accessory. She also had a hat, and her long black hair was left cascading down her back. At the same time, she had a small bag slung across her shoulders.
In other words, she looked neat but fashionable.
Indeed, a glance at the girl would make anyone smile.
“How is it, Nat?” Denise spun around on the spot.
Natasha nodded. She did not know much about fashion, but Denise looked neat and fashionable.
Denise smiled. Right then, her phone rang, and she lifted it to look at the screen. Then, she said, “Sharon's downstairs.”
“Come on. Let's go downstairs together,” Natasha said.
The family of three then headed downstairs.
Kenneth was still a little uneasy in the elevator. He turned to Denise and
asked, “Are you sure you want to go alone with Sharon?”
“Don't worry, Mr. Handsome. Nat said that even if Sharon kidnapped me, you'll still be able to find me,” Denise replied, beaming.
At that, Kenneth shot a glimpse at Natasha.
Natasha blurted out, “What's the matter? Am I wrong?”
She was not, but that was not all that it was.
Kenneth lowered his eyes and said to the girl, “Don't worry. Sharon won't dare to do that. Still, Denise, remember this—if anyone bullies you or puts you in a tough spot, call me, okay?”
I love how I have a daddy to love me! Denise exclaimed in her heart.
She then smiled and nodded. “I got it. I have Mr. Handsome backing me up, so I'm not scared of anyone!”
Kenneth reached out to pat her head.
Right then, the elevator doors opened, and Natasha went out first. Denise then walked out while holding hands with Kenneth.
A Mercedes-Benz minivan was outside.
The door was slightly ajar, and Sharon, who was in casual wear, was sitting with her legs crossed. She also had a pair of sunglasses resting on her nose bridge, and she looked like the celebrity she was.
She had been looking at her phone when they arrived. When her manager saw Kenneth and Natasha coming out, he nudged Sharon.
Sharon raised her head and came down from the car upon seeing the couple.
“Ms. Sharon!” Denise greeted with a smile.
Sharon beamed when she saw Denise. “Denise, you look so pretty today!”
“I do? Ms. Sharon, you're pretty too!”
“My, how sweet of you!”
The two of them merrily chatted for a little while, and the intimacy they displayed made it seem as if they had known each other for a long time.
However, that scene was what made Kenneth relax his tense expression.
Right then, Sharon turned to Kenneth and Natasha. “Mr. Hamilton, Ms. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Watson, do you... want to come along?”
“It's fine. I'm going to go to work. I'll have to trouble you to take care of her,” Natasha said.
“It's no trouble at all, but...” Sharon's eyes flitted toward Kenneth. “Mr.
Hamilton...”
“Take good care of Denise. I don't wish for anything to happen to her,” Kenneth told her directly.
In other words, he was telling her that he was not tagging along either.
Sharon was surprised, but she then blurted out, “Are you both that fine about leaving her with me?”
Her words rendered both Natasha and Kenneth speechless.
At their silence, Sharon chuckled and said, “I'm just joking. Don't worry. I'll take good care of Denise. As long as I'm here, no one will be able to bully her. I swear on my life.” “I trust you,” Natasha told her.
Sharon tensed up. She had only seen Natasha once or twice, and her first meeting with Natasha had been unpleasant, to say the least. Yet, Natasha was currently telling her that she trusted her.
Sharon was at a loss for words after hearing that.
Right then, Kenneth looked at Denise and said, “Remember what I told you earlier.”
“I got it!” Denise responded swiftly.
Once Natasha and Kenneth were done reminding the girl, Sharon said, “It's getting late, so we'll be leaving now.” “Be careful on the road.”
Sharon flashed them a smile and carried Denise into the car.
The manager sat at the back while Denise and Sharon sat on the two seats in the middle.
“Bye, Nat! Bye, Mr. Handsome!” Denise waved at them.
“Bye,” Natasha muttered.
Kenneth watched on gloomily.
After that, the door slowly closed, the driver drove off.
