Chapter 536
It was apparent that Sharon truly liked and cared for Denise.
“She's fine. One of the reasons I called is to thank you; she told me how you took the time to send her
here. The other reason is I want to invite you over,” voiced Natasha immediately.
“Yes, that was the plan at first, but something came up. We had to take a transit flight elsewhere for two
days. What if I go over after I'm done with my business?” inquired Sharon.
After some thought, Natasha nodded in response. “No problem. You do what you have to do, and we'll
talk again when you're back.”
“Sure.”
“That's it for now. Be safe.”
“Okay!”
With that, the phone call ended.
Natasha stilled for a few seconds before turning around to see Kenneth behind her.
“Why did you come out here too?” questioned Natasha when she noticed the man.
Kenneth, who was much taller than Natasha, approached her before wrapping his arms around her.
“Nat, do you have that much faith in me?”
“What?”
“You didn't seem to care who contacted me. Weren't you worried at all?” asked Kenneth.
Natasha thought seriously for a while after hearing that question and then nodded.
“Why did you nod? What does that mean?” Kenneth narrowed his eyes at Natasha.
“It means I believe in the boy who's regained his memory. He wouldn't lie to me!” replied Natasha.
Kenneth stared at the woman with his sparkling obsidian eyes for a moment before promising, “Don't
worry, Nat. I'll never lie to you again.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLooking back at the man, Natasha nodded once again.
Then, Kenneth leaned in, intending to press his lips against Natasha's.
However, Dave just so happened to walk out at that exact moment and witnessed Kenneth's action.
When Dave purposely coughed two times to alert the two of his presence, Natasha snapped back to
her senses and lowered her eyes evasively.
“Are you blind or something?” questioned Kenneth rhetorically while turning to glare at Dave.
“Sorry. Shall we pretend that I never came out?” suggested Dave with an eyebrow raised.
“I think that'd be nice,” answered Kenneth unashamedly with a nod.
“Okay.” Dave then pretended as if he was going to do as suggested.
Watching the two men fool around, Natasha voiced, “I'll go inside. You two take your time.” With that
said, she glanced at the men before turning around to leave.
Even as Natasha walked away, Kenneth could not seem to take his eyes off of her.
“Come on. She's gone, so put away those yearning eyes of yours,” uttered Dave.
Only then did Kenneth shift his attention to Dave. “You must be jealous because you've been single for
far too long, so let me give you a piece of advice. Start seeing somebody instead of ruining my
moments,” said Kenneth with a glare.
Dave did not appreciate how arrogant Kenneth sounded, though. “Do you think you're all that just
because you're in love, Kenneth?”
In response, Kenneth kept his eyes locked on Dave as he nodded in all seriousness. “Yes. Not only
that, but I also have three children.”
Unsure what to say to that, Dave simply kept silent.
“Do you know what it's like to learn to love someone after marrying them? Wait, that's not the case
because I'd already fallen for her when I was young. A lot happened between then and now, and it'd
take me a while to tell you everything.” Kenneth's eyes lit up when he reminisced about his past with
Natasha.
“What I wouldn't give to have a mirror so I can show you how stupid you look right now.” Dave
narrowed his eyes condescendingly at Kenneth.
To that, Kenneth shrugged nonchalantly. “That's because you have no idea what it's like to find
treasure.”
At that moment, Dave inadvertently glanced inside before stating in a lowered voice, “You're right; I
have no idea what that's like. After all, not everyone is as fortunate as you are. You two still have each
other even after all you've been through.”
Kenneth then gazed at Dave silently for a while before uttering, “Someday, you'll find your other half
too.”
After looking up to meet Kenneth's gaze, Dave responded, “Forget about it. Freedom suits me more.”
Kenneth continued to look at Dave as he broke into a half-smile.
“By the way, I have good news about the matter you wanted me to look into.” Dave quickly changed the
subject.
As soon as Kenneth heard that, he put on a stern face as well.
“I came to you the second I was informed that I'd receive the photo. It should be here by now!” stated
Dave while pulling out his phone to check his inbox.
“Got it.” As expected, Dave found a photo in the message he had just received, so he quickly showed it
to Kenneth. “Take a look.”
When Kenneth saw the person on the screen, he instantly narrowed his eyes, for the bloodied boy he
remembered seeing passing him by in a car was exactly the same as the one he saw on the phone.
At that moment, Kenneth's eyes immediately turned bloodshot.
“Is that him?” inquired Dave when he noticed Kenneth's sudden change in mood, and the other man
nodded in response.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDave knew what the look in Kenneth's eyes meant, so he put away his phone and looked at the man.
“What do you plan to do?”
“It's simple; I'll kill him!” replied Kenneth with an increasingly grim face.
“There's nothing simple about it.” Dave continued to stare at Kenneth.
“If it were, he would've died ten thousand times over,” scoffed Kenneth.
Dave could tell that Kenneth had already made his decision, so he pondered for a while. “About this
matter...”
“Don't tell her.”
Dave was stunned when he heard that. “Do you plan to deal with this on your own?”
Staring blankly into the distance, Kenneth seemed as if his eyes had become empty for a moment. “It
wasn't easy for her to let this go, so I don't want her to be sucked back into the storm of hatred. If
anyone's going to do it, it should be me. I'll be vengeance,” said Kenneth determinedly.
Dave could tell that Kenneth was dead serious about what was said.
Even though he had never seen Kenneth that way before, he knew Natasha was the kind of woman
worth throwing everything away for.
After a while, Dave uttered while staring at Kenneth, “I understand. I'm here if you need me!”
Kenneth then turned to look at Dave. “I'd like to deal with this personally.”
“I'm not trying to stop you from doing that!”
“What I meant was...” There was something Kenneth wanted to say, but he changed his mind in the
end. “Forget it. I'll tell you when I've thought it through.”
Having known Kenneth for so long, Dave understood what the man meant, so he walked over to shoot
Kenneth what seemed like a warning look. “Kenneth, I know you're tough, but if you dare play hero, I'll
inform DX of your return and see how you like it.”
In response, Kenneth furrowed his eyebrows at Dave, who then looked away.
“I have some matters to tend to at the headquarters, so don't save dinner for me.” With that, Dave left
without turning back.
The look in Kenneth's eyes softened as he watched the man walk away, for he felt blessed to have
such a friend.
