Chapter 139
Fabian was waiting outside.
When Kenneth came walking out, he immediately walked over.
Before he could say anything, he heard Gary's devastating shrieks echoing from the ward.
“Mr. Hamilton!”
“Let's go!” Kenneth spoke and walked toward the exit.
Fabian greeted the police officer at the exit and immediately followed behind.
In the car outside the building, Fabian looked at Kenneth and asked, “Mr.
Hamilton, how was it?”
Kenneth turned to face him. “Do you have a cigarette?
Huh?
Fabian froze for a moment before nodding. “Yes, but it's not the brand you used to smoke.” As he spoke, he took out a box of cigarettes from his front pocket.
Kenneth bent over slightly and took out a cigarette.
Fabian quickly reached forward with his lighter and lit his cigarette.
Kenneth took a puff, rolled down the window, and the smoke drifted out of the car.
As he looked out the window, his face was tense under the light, and his eyes were partially obscured by the darkness concealing his emotions.
Fabian looked at him, not daring to make a sound.
He knew that Kenneth rarely smoked, and he had no idea what sort of answers Kenneth had received while he was in the ward. However, he simply knew that Kenneth's mind was in shambles at that moment. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
When Kenneth finished smoking, he extinguished the cigarette and said, “Fabian.”
“Mr. Hamilton.” Fabian looked at him.
“Process Thea's resignation, and don't let her step into Hamilton Corporation ever again!
Fabian was shocked by Kenneth's words. “Does this matter have something to do with Ms. Jarman?”
Kenneth pursed his lips in silence, his eyes looking incredibly cold.
However, his silence was the answer to Fabian's speculation.
“So it does. Is there any evidence?” Fabian asked.
Kenneth looked out the window and uttered, “If there is, it won't be as simple as firing her!”
Fabian held his tongue.
He knew that Thea had crossed Kenneth's bottom line this time.
After many years of service, Fabian knew Kenneth very well.
He was a person who valued loyalty.
Although he was fierce sometimes, he was definitely a boss worth following, and he would never mistreat a subordinate.
It was the same for Thea.
She had always been able to grasp this side of Kenneth, so she had been acting on his boundaries of acceptable behavior.
And over the years, Kenneth had been turning a blind eye.
He didn't like it, but he couldn't do anything.
That day, she had finally crossed the line.
“Let's go back to the hospital.”
Fabian started the car and drove toward the hospital.
On the way, Fabian looked at the dignified and domineering Kenneth through the rearview mirror.
He knew that the reason why Kenneth had always tolerated Thea was because of that incident.
After pondering for a moment, he said, “Mr. Hamilton.”
At that moment, Kenneth's phone rang.
Kenneth picked up his phone and smiled when he saw that it was a text sent by Denise.
Denise: Mr. Handsome, what are you doing?
Kenneth typed away on his phone: I'm missing you, Denise!
Then he looked up and glanced at Fabian. “What did you want to say?”
Fabian immediately shook his head. “N-Nothing.”
Kenneth looked back down at his phone. It was then he received a voice message.
“Mr. Handsome!” Denise's voice came from the phone.
“It's late. Why are you not asleep yet?” “I just got home from the hospital with Great-grandpa.”
“Your Great-grandpa went back too?” Kenneth immediately caught the point.
“Yeah, Mommy insisted Great-grandpa take us home. Otherwise, Gramps would have to stay at the hospital to look after Mommy!” Denise's voice was soft as if being muffled by a blanket.
Kenneth smiled when he heard that.
“Mr. Handsome, Mommy won’t be in danger anymore, right?” Denise sounded concerned.
“Mm, not anymore. Don't worry. As long as I'm here, your mommy will be safe!”
Denise beamed. “I believe in you, Mr. Handsome!”
Listening to her constantly calling him Mr. Handsome, Kenneth felt an unpleasant sweetness in the bottom of his heart.
“Mr. Handsome, how is your injury? It looked serious.” This time, Denise sounded a little gloomy.
“It's nothing serious. It's just a graze.”
“It looked very serious. Mr. Handsome, you're lying.”
“Oh? Are you worried about me?” Kenneth joked.
After a long while, Denise responded in a muffled voice, “Yes...”
I'm worried. So worried.
Kenneth's heart ached. He furrowed his eyebrows and said, “Denise... are you crymg?
“Mr. Handsome, you said you would protect me forever, so don't let anything happen to you!” Denise sniffled.
Her voice melted Kenneth's heart.
But at the thought of Denise crying, his heart began to ache.
“I promise. Nothing will happen to me. I will protect you forever, okay?” Kenneth tried to coax her.
“You must keep your promise. No lying!” “Yes, I will never lie to you.”
Denise perked up a little after hearing Kenneth say that.
As Kenneth wasn't in a rush, he continued to speak to Denise on the phone.
Fabian looked in the rearview mirror and saw Kenneth's unprecedented, gentle behavior.
Goosebumps involuntarily crept all over his body.
They talked on the phone for a long while, and Kenneth only hung up when Denise seemed to have fallen asleep.
Fabian immediately asked, “Mr. Hamilton, have you not reunited with Little Marshmallow? Why is she still calling you Mr. Handsome?”
When Fabian mentioned this, Kenneth thought of Natasha.
He believed that the children were well aware but didn't dare to say it because of Natasha.
“Take it slow. There's no rush,” Kenneth said, but he was indeed impatient inside.
When he heard Denise call him Mr.
Handsome in her piping voice, he couldn't wait to reveal his identity.
However, he still preferred to respect them and not put them in a difficult spot.
When Kenneth was deep in thoughts, Fabian asked teasingly, “Is Ms. Watson stopping you?”
Kenneth shot him a look.
Fabian trembled when he saw Kenneth's intimidating gaze through the rearview mirror. The atmosphere in the car instantly became tense.
He quickly adjusted the rearview mirror and stopped looking at him.
“Mr. Hamilton, I'm driving! It's dangerous!” Kenneth's eyes were threatening enough to distract him from the road.
Kenneth grinned evilly. “If you don't like it, you can resign tomorrow too!”
Fabian felt wholly helpless at that moment. “Sorry, Mr. Hamilton. That's not what I meant. What I meant was Ms. Watson must be interested in you. She's not allowing you to reunite with the children because she is still angry at you.”
Kenneth paused and raised his eyes. Interested in me?
He looked at Fabian. “What do you mean?”
