Not Twins (Natasha and Kenneth)

Chapter 122

Kenneth rushed to Natasha’s ward without a second thought.

“Kenneth, don’t go! It’s dangerous!” Thea exclaimed.

Kenneth looked back at her briefly before shoving her away from him and dashing to Natasha’s

ward.

Thea fell to the ground, not expecting Kenneth to push her.

Seeing him running toward Natasha’s ward, Thea shouted, “Kenneth, you can’t go there! It’s

dangerous!”

However, there was no hesitation in Kenneth’s steps.

Disappointment filled Thea at the sight, but the thought of Kenneth getting hurt drove her to her

feet and she gave chase.

Thalia saw through her intentions and stepped in front of her. “This is something between them, so

don’t you go messing it up.” Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Thea studied Thalia. This girl is pretty too. Her beauty is different from Natasha’s. It has a flair.

“Who are you?” Thea asked impatiently.

“Oh, just an average pretty woman,” Thalia answered with a smile.

Thea wasn’t interested in getting into a verbal fight with her. “Move!” She was about to rush past

Thalia, but Thalia persistently blocked her way.

“You—”

Right then, Anthony frantically ran up the stairs. He couldn’t keep up with Thalia without any

training and with his short legs.

Reaching the top of the stairs, he saw Thea in a stalemate with Thalia. “Where is he?”

“Kenneth has gone in,” Thalia replied.

Anthony went past the two and rushed toward Natasha’s ward.

Thea stood there staring at Anthony with a dazed look on her face.

That boy’s face and back look just like Kenneth’s. He…

“Who is he?” Thea mumbled.

Flashing a smile at her, Thalia said, “He’s someone you can’t afford to offend.”

She turned around, catching up with Anthony, and walked toward Natasha’s ward.

“Don’t worry. Kenneth is there too. Nothing will happen to your mommy,” Thalia assured.

Mommy?

Thea’s brain stopping working at once.

So Natasha not only has a daughter but a son too? They are all…

Thea didn’t dare to continue to think along that line.

No! That’s impossible!

The lights weren’t on in Natasha’s ward. It was pitch black inside.

A man silently entered her ward and approached her bed with the slight illumination from the light

in the corridor. He had a knife in his hand as he inched closer to the bed.

A cruel grin formed on the man’s lips. He then plunged his knife into Natasha, who was sleeping

on the bed.

However, he felt the sensation was different. It was soft.

Feeling something was wrong, that man threw the blanket open and saw there was no one

underneath.

His pupils constricted as he realized someone was behind him, but before he could turn around,

Natasha had already attacked him.

Because of the height difference, Natasha couldn’t land any attacks on his face. Instead, her

punch landed on his sternum.

With a loud grunt, the man took a step back from the force.

His eyes caught Natasha in the dark. “I didn’t expect you to know some—”

“Who are you? Why are you trying to kill me?” Natasha questioned.

The man was wearing a hoodie with a hood pulled over his head and face. She couldn’t get a good

look at him. Despite the darkness, his eyes were bright.

He touched his chest and swallowed his pain. “Want to know why? Come over here, and I’ll tell

you.” He raised the knife into the air, and it glinted brightly under the rays of the moon.

Natasha watched him with her guard up. “I’ve never done anything to you. Why did you try to hurt

me again and again?”

“Never done anything to me? It’s your fault that my brother is in prison now! I wouldn’t be left alone

if it weren’t for you. I want to avenge him!”

Learning that it wasn’t a group of people who wanted to kill her and her parents, Natasha was

slightly relieved.

At that moment, the man charged at her, pointing his knife at her.

Natasha agilely dodged his attack.

The man seemed to have received some training in combat, as he did not give up and pounced on

Natasha again.

The man had a height of almost two meters. He was ruthless and vicious in his attacks but was

lacking in terms of agility.

Natasha targeted his weak spot with every attack. However, during one of his kicks, his feet got

Natasha’s wrist.

The pain from her bone coursed through her. Natasha instinctively tried to protect her hand since

her wrist was injured.

Even though her movement was subtle, the man still caught them. He started to focus his attacks

on Natasha’s wrist after that.

Natasha knew he was intelligent despite not being a professional assassin.

I have to detach myself from him. Now is not a good time to continue this fight.

Natasha lifted her knee and slammed it toward his groin. The man managed to evade it slightly, so

Natasha’s kick was slightly off course.

Even so, the slight graze was enough to stop him briefly. He immediately bent down and covered

his groin in pain.

Natasha used that opportunity to run toward the door.

When she twisted the doorknob, the door didn’t open.

Natasha fumbled with the lock under the dim lighting in the ward. It was also her first time picking a

lock like that, so it took her some time.

Seeing that, the man knew he still had a chance. He suppressed the pain and lumbered toward

her.

Right then, Kenneth appeared on the other side of the door and saw that Natasha was right inside

with a man lifting the knife in his hand behind her.

Kenneth’s pupils dilated with fear. He twisted the doorknob urgently, but the door was locked.

“Natasha!” he yelled, frantically twisting the doorknob, hoping to break the lock.

Natasha managed to open the door just in time. She already had one foot out of the door, but the

man managed to grasp onto her from behind at the very last minute.

Kenneth kicked the door open.

Seeing that the man was about to stab his knife into Natasha, Kenneth shouted, “Gary, wait!”

Sure enough, the man paused as he gave Kenneth a puzzled look.

“You know me?”

Kenneth tried to act casual when he answered, “Of course. You’re Gaston’s younger brother from

a different mother. Am I right?”

Gary sneered as he pulled the hood away from his face.

His messy hair concealed half of his face, making him look terrifying.

He cracked his neck with a smile. Natasha looked so tiny in his hands.

“Since you know me, I don’t have to hide anymore,” Gary said.

Kenneth glanced at Natasha and exhaled a breath of relief when he didn’t see any injuries on her.

Then, he forced himself to calm down as he faced Gary.

“I know you’re avenging Gaston, but don’t you think you’ve got the wrong person?” Kenneth asked.

“What do you mean?”

“I don’t know why you’re attacking her. What happened to your brother wasn’t her fault.”

“Impossible! It’s her!”

“She’s just a woman. Your brother even drugged her. Do you think she could have escaped if I

hadn’t shown up? So, do you think she has the potential to send your brother to prison?”

Gary mulled over it briefly and finally narrowed his eyes at Kenneth. “It was you?”

Natasha looked at Kenneth. Is he trying to shift the attention to him?

Kenneth cast a glance at Natasha before fixing his eyes on Gary. He nodded and said, “That’s

right. It was me.”

Hatred filled Gary’s eyes.

“I was the one who collected all the evidence for your brother’s arrest. I was the one who passed

them to the police. Even at the hotel, I was the one who hit him,” Kenneth said. “That’s why I said

you got the wrong person.”

Natasha looked at him with concern. “Kenneth, what are you doing?”

Gary tightened his grip on Natasha and shouted, “Shut up!”

Kenneth watched as Gary became more agitated. He was worried he would hurt Natasha.

“I’m the person you want, so come at me! Don’t you want to avenge your brother? Take me

instead!” Kenneth slowly walked toward them.
