Chapter 910 Put On An Unconcerned Facade
Keh pushed Natasha and walked away.
Anthony remained firmly nted on the ground while staring at them.
Upon taking a turn, Keh lowered his gaze to look at Natasha. “Don''t you have something to say?”
“Like what?”
“Don''t you find Anthony''s reaction strange?” Keh asked.
Natasha looked straight ahead. Even though she had meticulously put on makeup, she still exuded a
sense of fragility.
She smiled. “Is it strange?”
“He didn''t ask anything even after seeing you like this!” Keh averted his gaze toward Anthony. “Do
you think Anthony already knows something?”
The corners of Natasha''s lips lifted slightly into a smile. After a moment, she nodded and said, “Mhm!”
Keh halted in his tracks and bent down next to Natasha. “Did you tell him?”
“Is there a need for me to do that? Given Anthony''s intelligence, it would be strange if he can''t figure it
out himself!” imed Natasha, her eyes filled with indescribable tenderness. “Besides, he''s my son.
Don''t people always say there''s a special bond between mothers and their children?”
Keh looked at her with his lips pursed. “Haven''t you ever considered telling him directly?”
Natasha shook her head.
“Nat...”
“Regarding this, as long as I don''t admit it, he''ll still hold on to a glimpse of hope, and he can still be
happy. But if I admit it, he won''t be able to put on a pretense in front of me anymore. When that
happens, we''ll both be in pain and sadness. Is there a need for that?” Natasha asked.
Keh wanted to say something, but upon noticing the look in Natasha''s eyes, he could not bring
himself to say more.
He reached out and ced his hand in her palm. “Nat, please wait for me a little longer. I promise to
find you the antidote!”
“I believe in you.” Natasha shed a smile at him.
Keh rose to his feet and continued pushing her forward.
“By the way, from the way I see, Benjamin and Denise didn''t react like how Anthony did...” Keh
remarked.
“Anthony probably didn''t tell them anything, I guess!” Natasha said lightly.
“I thought they never keep secrets from each other?” asked Keh.
“Anthony is a person of great responsibility. He wouldn''t tell them even if he knew about it. He would
think that the fewer people who know about it, the less sadness there will be!” Natasha looked up at
Keh with a proud expression that made it seem like she was unting.
“What do you mean?” Keh asked, his eyes fixed on her.
“I gave birth to him. I know him well!” stated Natasha.
Keh chuckled and reached out to gently pat her on the head.
Natasha, too,ughed. Looking ahead, she continued, “Keh, you should find more time to
understand them in the future.”
As soon as her words fell, Keh was frozen at his feet.
He gazed at her, the look in his eyes unfathomable.
Of course, Natasha knew what was going through the man''s mind. With a smile, she said, “What I
meant is that if you don''t try to understand them more, I''m afraid you won''t be able to handle them in
the future!”
“All I need is you by my side. With you around, I doubt they''ll dare cross the line!” responded Keh.
Natasha nodded in response. “That''s true. But aren''t you afraid that maybe one day I won''t be able to
control them anymore?”
“If there''s such a day, I''m sure it won''t be as simple as a matter of discipline anymore. If they don''t even
listen to you, how will they possibly listen to a father who missed out on six years of their lives?”
Keh deflected her question with another.
Hearing that, Natasha replied, “You''ve got a point!”
Keh lowered his gaze to look at her. “But I think you''re overthinking things. That will never happen
to the three of them!”
“Are you that sure?” Natasha queried.
Keh nodded.
A smile crept up on Natasha''s face. “Based on your confidence, I can see that you know the kids pretty
well!”
“Of course! No one knows a child better than the father!”
“Shouldn''t it be the mother?”
“That''s kind of the same meaning!”
“Keh, you''re getting more and more shameless...”
The two chatted as they walked. Even though grave matters were weighing on their hearts, they still
tried to cheer each other up...
...
Meanwhile, Anthony was still at the entrance trying topose himself after the couple had left.
As much as he constantly reminded himself to put on a more unconcerned facade, he still could not
control his emotions every time he saw Natasha in the wheelchair.
His eyes were reddened, and it took him a great effort to hold back his urge to cry.

While he was adjusting his mental state, a loud smack echoed from inside the house.
Stumped, Anthony rushed inside.
Inside, Spencer was pinning onto Thalia.
When Anthony entered to see that scene, he was briefly taken aback and quickly turned around.
“I...”
Anthony was about to exin himself when Spencer yelled, “Why did you turn around? Aren''t you
going toe and help?”
Huh?
Anthony was slightly stunned.
“Come over here!” Spencer shouted.
Only then did Anthony turn around to face them. Just as he was about to ask something, he saw Thalia
abruptly send a kick toward Spencer. Fortunately, thetter managed to dodge her, all thanks to his
quick reflexes.
At that moment, Thalia sat up straight and red fiercely at Spencer. “As I said, don''t me me for not
holding back if you offend me!”
As she leaped forward, intending to make a move, Anthony swiftly pulled her back. “What are you
doing? Do you think you''re filming some drama?”
Thalia was visibly startled and turned around to nce at him. “Who are you?”
Anthony was struck dumb.
With his mouth agape, he shifted his gaze toward Spencer.
Spencer sighed helplessly. “She had one ss too many!”
Anthony uttered, “Drunken antics?”
Spencer remained silent.
Displeasure surged within Thalia. With her eyes on Anthony, she ranted, “Dude, I did drink a little, but
I''m not drunk. I''ll let it slide on the ount that you''re still a kid. Now, off you go!”
“All right. Goodbye!” With that, Anthony turned and left without the slightest hesitation.
Thalia cast a nce at him, then immediately followed him outside.
As Anthony was walking, he felt a presence beside him. He stopped and whipped his head around.
“Why are you following me?”
“To look for someone!”
“Who are you looking for?” Anthony questioned.
Thalia said nothing.
“Sure. Go ahead then!” said Anthony.
And so, watching Thalia head outside, Spencer and Anthony quickly trailed behind.
“Does she always act like this after drinking?”
“It''s only because she drank too much!”
“Has she always been like this?”
“Rarely!”
Anthony nodded, seemingly as if he understood something. He was about to say more when he lifted
his gaze and saw Thalia heading toward his room.
His brows snapped together. “Why is she going to my room?”
Immediately, he went after her.
Seeing that, Spencer resignedly followed behind.
As Anthony pushed open the room door, he spotted a gorgeous silhouette sitting cross-legged on his
bed with a thin quilt draped over her body.
Anthony''s mysophobia acted up at once. “What are you doing, Thalia?”
Nheless, when Thalia looked up and saw him, her eyes instantly welled up with tears. With a teary
voice, she said, “Anthony...”
Anthony stared at her in bafflement.
