Not Twins (Natasha and Kenneth)

Chapter 112

While Anthony was still monitoring the surveillance footage in the car, Thalia rushed in as if she

was fleeing from something, then let out a sigh of relief.

When he saw the look on her face, Anthony couldn’t help but curl his lips. “What’s wrong? Why do

you look so terrified?”

Thalia was upset by his comment. “I’m not terrified.”

“Then what is it?”

“It’s just inappropriate for a lady to challenge a man.”

Anthony couldn’t resist chuckling. “Don’t worry. I won’t tell anyone else about it.”

Thalia gave him the side-eye. “It’s as I said. Kenneth isn’t a good person. He has plenty of tricks

up his sleeve!”

“Didn’t I tell you to agree to his suggestion? And yet, you insisted on babbling on until you revealed

something you weren’t supposed to,” Anthony retorted.

“How would I know what was going through his mind? I assumed that he had recognized me and

wanted to use the opportunity to harm me. Who could’ve expected that it was a trap?” Thalia

knitted her brows as she thought about getting back at him for what had happened that day.

In response, Anthony, who resembled Kenneth, cocked a brow. “Don’t worry. No one will be able to

discover your identity unless an insider exposes you or you reveal it yourself.”

Thalia gave him a stunned look. “You were the one who did it?”

Anthony put on a nonchalant expression. “Since you’re working for me, I have increased the

secrecy around your identity to keep you from harm.”

Thalia wouldn’t have believed it if anyone were to say the same. However, since it was Anthony,

the legendary hacker, who had said so, there was no reason for her to doubt him.

After all, his handiwork would allow her to keep her identity ninety-nine point nine nine percent

secure.

In other words, she could freely roam the underworld without worrying about being exposed.

Abruptly, Thalia screamed. She looked at the adorable face and couldn’t help cupping it in her

hands and giving him a peck. “You are so adorable! I love you to bits!”

Anthony was befuddled.

Staring at her, he began to blush.

“W-What are you doing?” Anthony touched his face and gave her a horrified look.

Thalia was overwhelmed by her impulse. All this while, she had been tempted to give him a kiss,

given how adorable he was. However, she had been holding herself back due to his identity until

just now, when she utterly lost control.

“Why are you blushing?” Thalia scrutinized him.

“I’m not!” Anthony denied.

Thalia examined him closer. “Don’t tell me that no one else has kissed you before and that was

actually your first kiss!”

“Of course not. Mommy kissed me before!”

Thalia couldn’t hold back her laughter. “Who else other than your mommy?”

Anthony furrowed his brows. “Why should I let someone else kiss me?”

“So no one else has kissed you other than your mommy?” Thalia asked in amusement.

Anthony quickly gave the spot she kissed a wipe before frowning defiantly. “You’re really weird.

Why would I let someone else kiss me?”

Thalia burst into laughter by reflex. “My, my, look at how embarrassed you are. You’re cute. How

can anyone resist kissing you?”

“Shut up!”

It was a rare opportunity to be able to tease Anthony, and Thalia wasn’t going to let him off easily.

“Come on. Don’t be shy. You’ll get used to it. Don’t worry. I’ll be responsible… Oh my, you’re so

irresistibly cute.” Staring at Anthony’s face, Thalia felt the urge to give him another kiss.

“Stop it!” Anthony warned her.

Unfortunately, the more he resisted, the more elated she was. She reached out to tousle his hair.

“Oh my, even when you’re angry, you’re still just as adorable. You’re like a raging little lion cub. I

love you to bits!”

It seems that only actions can shut this woman up!

Anthony wasn’t good with words, but actions were his forte.

Without another word, he turned on his laptop with a serious expression and began typing away

furiously.

After laughing for a long while, Thalia leaned over to take a look when he stopped responding to

her. “What are you doing?”

On his screen, she could see images of her popping up rapidly.

At that moment, Anthony replied in a steady tone, “Nothing. I’m just lifting the security over your

identity.”

Thalia pressed her hand on his laptop while staring at him in disbelief.

“A-Are you insane?”

Anthony gave her a small smile. “Since you’re so arrogant, there’s no need for me to protect you.”

With her hand pressing firmly on the laptop, Thalia maintained her gaze at him.

Anthony reciprocated her stare, both of them locking gazes in grim silence.

As time ticked by, Thalia was well aware that even though Anthony wasn’t much of a threat to her,

one could never truly tell the danger he posed.

In order to protect myself, I have to…

Drawing her dagger, she held it to Anthony’s throat and gave him a solemn look. “Believe it or not,

I’ll take your life right now!”

Anthony looked down at the dagger in her hand. Just as expected, Thalia is a professional who

can end my life in the blink of an eye.

However, Anthony was unfazed by his predicament. Instead, he rolled his eyes at her. “Come on.

Go ahead and take it!”

Thalia knitted her brows.

“Come on. What are you waiting for?” Anthony taunted.

Thalia realized that she had no hold over him, for he couldn’t be threatened or frightened into

submission.

She continued to stare at him, her previously smug expression replaced by a pitiful pout. “Hmm…”

She let out a sigh, just like a deflated balloon. “I’m sorry.”

“What did you say?” Anthony pretended as if he didn’t hear her.

“I’m sorry,” Thalia murmured again. She had never apologized to anyone in her life before, and

Anthony was her first.

“Are you going to ridicule me again?” Anthony asked.

Thalia shook her head.

Only then did Anthony stop, as he knew when not to get carried away. After all, Thalia wasn’t

someone to be trifled with. He might be able to momentarily force her into submission, but he

could never predict what might happen after.

“Mm, Mommy says that good kids know when they’re wrong. Don’t worry. You can rest assured

that I’ll forgive you.”

Thalia was at a loss for words.

“About my identity…” Thalia put on a pathetic face.

“I didn’t finish just now,” Anthony answered.

Heaving a sigh of relief, Thalia felt her courage suddenly return.

“Anyway, I was just joking with you. Why did you have to take it so seriously?”

Anthony said nothing.

“You don’t have to worry about it, too. I won’t tell anyone about this.” Thalia smiled.

The last thing Anthony wanted was to bring the matter up again. “Just keep your mouth shut!”

“Don’t worry, don’t worry,” Thalia reassured him before the urge got the better of her. “Was that

really your first kiss?”

Anthony was outraged.

Didn’t we just agree not to talk about it?

Suddenly, Anthony’s phone buzzed. When he saw that it was a message from Denise, he replied

to it.

Thalia leaned over and saw the profile picture of a girl. She asked curiously, “Who is this? She’s

gorgeous!”

Anthony ignored her.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
