DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 1031 No More Shadow Seeker
Benjamin leaned against the door frame, arms crossed over his chest, and lazily watched as Anthony walked off into the distance.
After a moment of thought, he spoke softly, "Perhaps they're trying to win people's hearts."
"Winning people over?" Denise furrowed her brows, indicating her confusion.
Benjamin shifted his gaze to her, his eyes filled with affection. "Alright, you don't need to worry about what your brother is planning," he said, looking at her. "You're almost free now. I guess you'll have to visit Darknetz once things are settled in a few days. Only then will everything be completely resolved. During this time, just rest at home and spend more time with Nat. Tony and I might be a bit busy, so we're counting on you to take care of Nat."
Denise listened on and nodded. "Alright, no matter what, you guys need to be more careful. Don't make Nat and I worry about you again."
"Got it." Benjamin responded affectionately, then looked at her and said, "Alright, it's getting late. You should head back and rest."
"I'm going to check on Nat."
Benjamin lifted his wrist to check the time. "At this hour?"
"Thalia is over at Nat's place, so I'm going to go check on them!" Denise said.
Benjamin nodded. "Alright then, you go ahead. I'll head back to my room to rest!"
Denise nodded. "Goodnight, Ben."
"Good night."
After Denise left, Benjamin finally closed the room door to rest.
Just as he was about to wash up, his phone suddenly rang. Benjamin picked it up to check, but upon seeing the message, his brows furrowed...
Inside another room.
Spencer was also there.
When Denise arrived, they were in the middle of a conversation. She quietly stood aside, listening without uttering a word.
After conducting a full-body examination on Kenneth, he carefully settled him down again.
"How's it going?" At this moment, Thalia asked him.
"Indeed, there is no injury as you mentioned," said Spencer.
Upon hearing the sound, Thalia's eyes slightly narrowed, a hint of excitement seemingly present in her gaze. "Really?"
"Didn't you see it all?" Spencer asked with a smile.
"I saw it with my own eyes. I can't believe I was mistaken..." Thalia said. After all, she had blamed Kenneth for this for so many years, and now suddenly realizing it wasn't him left her somewhat at a loss. "If you don't trust your own eyes, then what do you trust?"
"I trust you!" Thalia said directly, her gaze and eyes full of trust and reliance.
"Alright, let me tell you that there's nothing. Nothing at all!" he said.
"This matter is important to me. No, it's important to the three little ones. Make sure you check thoroughly before you speak," said Thalia.
Spencer chuckled and said, "Even if I look at it ten more times, the result would still be the same."
"What if there's some kind of scar removal surgery to get rid of it...”
"He has quite a few scars on his body, big and small ones. Why would he remove this one and leave the rest?" Spencer retorted, then shook his head. "That's not Kenneth's style." "What does style matter? What if, just what if, he doesn't like it?" said Thalia.
"Even if you've had scar removal surgery, there will still be traces. It's impossible to have nothing at all. Clearly, Kenneth's skin condition is not bad," said Spencer.
Thalia was speechless.
What else can be said?
"Who cares if his skin is good or not..." Thalia muttered, then turned to look at the person lying on the bed.
She knew that there was no one more authoritative in this world than Spencer.
If he said it was not there, then it was certainly not there.
Thalia trusted him completely in both public and private matters.
However, when her gaze fell on the person in the bed, Thalia's expression was a little unusual.
Spencer looked at her. "What's wrong? Are you not satisfied with this outcome?"
Thalia murmured, "It's not that... Have I been blaming the wrong person all these years?"
Upon hearing this, Spencer couldn't help but laugh. "So, is this the reason why you have such a big issue with Kenneth?"
Thalia snapped back to reality, her gaze meeting his. She nodded as if it was the most natural thing in the world. "Yes, that's right." Spencer did not know what to say.
At this point, it was hard to tell whether Thalia was simply naive or just stubborn.
Regardless of her appearance, she was always an adorable person in Spencer's eyes.
However, Thalia didn't see it that way. Seeing him fall silent, she furrowed her brows. "No, what's that look in your eyes? Can't I dislike him because of this?" Spencer nodded somewhat helplessly. "Alright, of course you can."
Thalia took a deep breath. She was both happy and disappointed. "Who would have known that it wasn't him... Why do you think he would admit to it?" Spencer chuckled as he looked at her, and remained silent.
"Why are you laughing?" Thalia asked, displeased.
Spencer shook his head. "It's nothing. Being able to love and hate without fear is quite good."
Thalia glanced at him directly, clearly not buying his words. She turned her head to look at Natasha, who was not far behind her. She seemed indifferent, as if she didn't care about the matter at all. She sighed and said. "I owe Kenneth an apology for this."
Upon hearing her, Natasha looked at her. "He didn't take it to heart, but he did receive your apology," Natasha said, nodding at her.
Thalia pursed her lips. "He must be feeling pretty smug right now." She said, looking at Kenneth, "Let him be smug, give him a chance to mock me in return."
Natasha listened, but didn't say a word.
Thalia took a deep breath, then looked at Natasha, "Once this matter is clarified, there's a chance for Kenneth and Darknetz to bury the hatchet. That way, the three little ones caught in the middle won't have to feel so torn."
Speaking of which, Natasha looked at her. "I didn't expect this outcome either. I was even thinking about how to resolve this issue. It seems that fate hasn't closed all doors on them."
Even though Natasha didn't say anything, her concern for the matter was evident in every word she said.
With that thought, Thalia spoke up, "Don't worry, Kyle is now completely subdued by Anthony and Benjamin. The only concern now is that they might run away."
Upon hearing the sound, Natasha didn't have much of a reaction.
She understood the principle that for one to be entrusted with great responsibility, they must shoulder a great responsibility, go through ordeals to prepare oneself for it.
Natasha was never an ambitious person. All she wished for the three of them was to be safe and healthy. Nothing more. However, on top of this, she was an understanding mother. She was more than willing to support them in anything they wanted to do. Therefore, between the two, Natasha chose the latter.
As long as they were willing, Natasha would offer them her unconditional support.
"It's the same as I've always said, as long as they're okay, I don't mind. But if Kyle tries to give them a hard time, I won't let him off," Natasha said.
Upon hearing this, Thalia let out a deep sigh. "If Kyle knew this threat was from Shadow Seeker, he would surely be terrified."
Natasha's gaze fell upon the person lying on the bed, her gaze deep and profound as she said, "From now on, there will be no more Shadow Seeker in this world."
