Chapter 693
Keh was unfazed by Spencer''spliment and merely stared at thetter. “Make sure to prep
your men before the operation to avoid any unexpected event or ident from happeningter on.”
“Don''t worry. I''ll do that,” Spencer replied.
“That''s all, then.” With that, Keh got up to leave.
“Hold on,” Spencer piped up.
Keh turned around. “Is there anything else?”
Spencer contemted for a few moments before looking at Keh and said, “Anthony visited me
today, seemingly trying to fish for information. I think he might''ve figured out something.”
At the mention of that, Keh narrowed his eyes. “What about it?”
“I just want to let you know that even though they are young, that doesn''t mean theyck
endurance. Besides, they also have the right to know the truth.”
“This matter could drive even me and you mad, so why must the kids suffer too?”
Spencer was slightly taken aback upon hearing that.
“You''ll understand when you have children in the future.” Keh didn''t linger after saying that. He
got to his feet and left.
Spencer narrowed his eyes as he watched Keh leave. Recalling matters rted to the
operation, he stood up and went to make the necessary preparations.
Upon exiting theboratory, Keh went straight to Natasha''s room.
However, he saw Anthony walking toward him after taking a few steps forward.
“Daddy,” Anthony greeted.
Keh nodded. “Why aren''t you asleep sote at night?”
“I can''t sleep, so I went to Nat''s room to look for her, but she wasn''t there,” Anthony replied.
Keh knitted his brows in response. “She''s not in her room?”
Anthony shook her head.
“Perhaps she''s taking a stroll outside. I''ll go and find her.” Keh spun on his heel and strode
away after saying that.
“Daddy.” Just then, Anthony called out to him.
Keh gazed at his son. “What''s the matter?”
Anthony pondered briefly before uttering, “When do you n to bring us shooting?”
“Anytime.”
“What about tomorrow?” Anthony asked.
Keh fell into a momentary daze before replying, “I''m not avable tomorrow.”
“Why?”
Keh feigned nonchnce and said, “I have something to attend to with Dave tomorrow. I''m free
to bring you shooting anytime after that.”
“May I know what will you be doing?”
Keh shook his head. “No.”
“Why?”
“Perhaps you want to consider Dave''s suggestion to take over DX Group?” Keh raised his
eyebrow.
“Daddy!”
“If you can''t, quit probing,” Keh uttered firmly.
“If that''s the case, you''re not a member of DX Group too!”
“But I''ll never do anything to harm DX Group.”
“I won''t either!”
“You won''t, but we can''t say the same for the force supporting you.”
“I will never tell them.”
“No one can guarantee that.”
“Fine. You simply don''t have faith in me, after all.”
“Kinship should not be an affecting factor in this matter. I need to follow the rules.”
“Fine.” Anthony arched his brows in resignation.
“Rest earlier if there''s nothing else,” Keh reminded.
“I got it.”
Keh nced at Anthony before turning around and leaving.
After seeing Keh headed outside, Anthony lowered his gaze and immediately took out his
phone to send a message in the group chat: Come to my room. Now.
Meanwhile, Natasha sat outside the house, gazing up at the night sky and seemingly deeply
absorbed in her thoughts.
Keh finally found her after searching for some time. Tenderness filled his eyes the moment he
saw her.
He walked over and sat beside her.
“What''s the matter? You didn''t sit here long enough in the daytime?” he asked.
Natasha looked sideways. She grinned when she saw Keh. “Why are you here?”
“Anthony told me you weren''t in your room, so I came out here to look for you. What are you
thinking about?”
Natasha lifted her head, allowing her long hair to hang loosely on her back, and stared at the sky. “I
suddenly realized the night sky here is quite pretty.”
Keh looked up as well and took in the countless dazzling stars adorning the sky.
“It is quite pretty,” he said.
“Do you think Grandpa is also gazing at this beautiful sky?” she asked.
Keh shifted his gaze onto her, turned his body sideways, and ced one hand on her back.
“What''s wrong? Are you missing home?”
Natasha held his gaze. “Don''t you miss home?”
He thought for a few seconds before answering, “I didn''t have a ce to call home in the past.
However, now that you mention this, I think I do miss home a little.”
She chuckled.
“Nat, let''s get married when we return,” he announced all of a sudden.
Natasha froze, her gaze still on him.
“I want to build a home with you. One that I will miss no matter where I go.”
Natasha narrowed her eyes. “Keh, are you proposing to me right now?”
“If I say that I am, will you say yes?”
Natasha stretched out her hand.
“What?” He stared nkly at her.
“Where''s the ring?” she said. Her long and slender fingers appeared exceptionally attractive.
He furrowed his brows.
“How is this a marriage proposal if you don''t even have a ring?” Natasha teased him and was about
to retract her arm.
Unexpectedly, at that instant, Keh reached out to grasp her hand. The next second, he took out
a ring from his pocket using his other hand.
Without hesitation, he helped her put on the ring on her finger.
Natasha was stunned when she looked down and saw the sparkling diamond ring.
Then, she gazed up and bore her beautiful eyes into him. “You—”
“There''s no backing out from this now that you''ve epted the ring,” he uttered solemnly.
Natasha regained her senses after a long while. “When did you prepare the ring?”
“I did it right after you asked me the same question previously,” he answered.
She hesitated to speak and, at the same time, couldn''t stop smiling ear to ear.
“Initially, I wanted to pick a more suitable asion or make this proposal more formal to provide you
with the ceremonious vibe that should apany this significant moment. However, I couldn''t
contain my urge just now. Nat, I''ve been waiting for you to ask me that question for so long.” He
spoke softly while gazing at her.

Natasha suddenlyughed upon hearing that. “Mr. Hamilton, are you sure you''re not just taking
advantage of the circumstances?”
“Perhaps a little.” He didn''t deny that. “Still, I will seize every opportunity I have. If I can''t do it in one
try, I''ll do it twice. If twice doesn''t do the trick, I''ll make ten attempts. I''ll keep trying until you finally
say yes.”
“Really?”
He nodded in response.
Natasha''s eyes gleamed as she looked at the ring.
“So, are you rejecting me?”
Natasha met his gaze. “Of course not.”
Keh''s eyes turned pensive.
“I''ve also waited a long time for this day.” Natasha curved her lips into a smile. “I shall ept your
proposal in reluctance because of how big the diamond is.”
Keh grinned in response.
The next second, he leaned over and pulled her into his embrace. “Nat, now that you''ve said yes,
you won''t be able to go back on your word for the rest of your life.''
“A lifetime is too long a time to consider. I just want to live every moment to the fullest.”
