Chapter 1056 Going Home
Anthony understood her.
Even if Natasha didn't say it, he would still understand.
However, if she didn't tell him that, Anthony would definitely step forward. Yet, he couldn't do that anymore because she had told him not to.
Looking at Natasha, Anthony nodded and said, “I understand, Nat. Don't worry. I won't have any disputes with Great-grandpa even if he really blames you.”
Upon hearing those words, Natasha finally relaxed, looking at him with a slight smile. “I know you're a smart kid. You understand everything.”
“But Nat, it's not your fault...” Anthony said. He still didn't want Natasha to be mired in self-blame. “The ones who are wrong are the bad guys, not you, so you shouldn't carry this burden on your own.”
“I understand!” Natasha nodded. “The wrongdoers are indeed the bad people, but your daddy came for me. This fact cannot be denied. If it weren't for me, he might still be living a prosperous life in Glenport City and wouldn't have ended up like this. Anthony, I know I'm not in the wrong, but in my heart, I will always know what happened. I can't deceive myself.”
“I just don't want you to blame yourself!”
Natasha smiled at him. “Don't worry. I won't. Your daddy loves me, and I will always understand,” she said.
Anthony believed that Natasha was aware of everything.
However, she needed time to heal.
With that in mind, he lowered his gaze and pursed his lips.
“All right. You should rest a bit too. The journey is long. Anything else can wait until tomorrow!” Natasha said to him in a soft voice.
Anthony nodded. “Okay. You should also rest, Nat.”
“Okay!” Natasha nodded. “I'll just zone out a bit more before I go to sleep!” Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
And so, without uttering another word, Anthony simply closed his eyes to rest.
He wasn't asleep. Instead, he was fully attuned to every move Natasha made.
He knew, even after closing his eyes for a long time, Natasha had no intention of sleeping.
But he also knew that as they were about to return and face a new wave of sorrow, their hearts were indeed heavy. They all needed to mentally prepare themselves.
With that thought in mind, Anthony decided not to disturb her any further, allowing her some peace and quiet.
Just like that, the airplane flew the entire day and night.
Although it seemed like a long time, it went by pretty quickly.
Essentially, the time was spent resting and chatting.
The plane landed at eight o'clock the following morning.
When they emerged from the cabin, the sun had already risen, and the sky appeared vast and cloudless.
Thalia looked up at the sky and said, “It's a beautiful day today!”
Spencer also looked on, nodding his head.
Just then, Denise came out from the inside. As she passed by Thalia, she didn't say a word and simply walked past her.
Seeing that, Thalia frowned. Is she still angry?
She looked up at Spencer. “Why would she be upset when I'm not even mad?” At that moment, Thalia seemed just like a wronged child pleading her case.
However, Spencer replied, “When kids quarrel, isn't it necessary for one to speak first to make amends?”
“I'm certainly not going to speak first!” Thalia said, pouting. But then she realized something was off and looked up at him. “What do you mean by kids? I'm not a child!”
Spencer couldn't help but laugh. “If you aren't a child, why don't you speak up?”
Caught off guard by his question, Thalia was at a loss for words for a moment.
“Only children need to be coddled!” Spencer added another sentence.
At that point, there was nothing more Thalia could say.
After some thought, she pursed her lips and decided to do exactly that.
Thalia feigned indifference as she said, “All right. You make a good point. I'll coax the child later!”
Spencer nodded affirmatively. “Not bad. It seems my little girl has indeed grown up!”
“I've grown up a long time ago!” Thalia muttered.
Spencer smiled, his face full of affection and fondness. Upon seeing someone coming over to pick them up, he immediately said, “I'll go inside to take a look and help out!”
Thalia immediately nodded in agreement.
Once everything was nearly packed up, Kenneth was also arranged to get in the car.
At that moment, Natasha and Anthony came out of the cabin.
Looking outside, Anthony asked, “Nat, where are we going?”
After some thought, Natasha said, “Let's go straight to the manor!”
Upon hearing that, Anthony was taken aback. “Does Great-grandpa know we're coming back today?”
After some thought, Natasha nodded. “Yes!”
Anthony was puzzled. “What about...”
“He doesn't know about anything else!” Natasha said.
Anthony understood.
“Let's go!” said Natasha.
At that moment, they disembarked from the airplane together.
Three dedicated cars were dispatched to pick them up. Kenneth and Natasha were together, Spencer and the three little ones were in another, and the last car was specifically for their luggage.
In the car, Natasha looked at Kenneth, still unconscious, and murmured, “Kenneth, we're back. We've arrived in Glenport City, and we're on our way home. We'll be there soon!”
Seeing no reaction from him, Natasha murmured, “We're about to meet Old Mr. Hamilton. I don't know how he'll react. Honestly, I'm a bit worried, but I know I can't avoid it any longer! You must miss Old Mr. Hamilton a lot, right? We'll be home soon!”
Even though the person lying there didn't respond, she just kept talking to him.
While in the car, Natasha was staring intently at Kenneth's face like she always would.
Even though he was unconscious, seeing his face still made her heart flutter. This man is just my type. It doesn't even matter if he's conscious or not.
At that thought, Natasha couldn't help smiling.
She never considered herself to be someone who could be swayed by good looks, for there were others more handsome than Kenneth. Yet, inexplicably, it was him to whom she found herself utterly defenseless.
After that, she took a deep breath and said, “It's okay. Sleep as long as you need. Wake up when you're ready. I'll be waiting for you! After all, it seems I wouldn't fall for anyone else but you!”
After speaking, Natasha chuckled at her own foolishness.
Along the journey, Natasha couldn't take her eyes off that face, with memories of the past constantly surfacing in her mind.
Even though his fall took away much of her joy, the memories they shared seemed to sustain Natasha for a long time.
As she was lost in her thoughts, suddenly, the car came to a halt.
Natasha looked up at the driver.
“We're here,” the driver said.
Hearing that, Natasha looked outside.
At that moment, two elderly men with white hair were seen standing outside, their faces filled with anticipation.
