"..."

Natasha wanted to say something, but the trio was staring at Kenneth and her.

They were looking at Natasha as if she was a jerk.

After a long moment, Natasha asked, "I didn't say that?"

"Then, does that mean you have agreed to it?" Kenneth enquired.

Natasha thought about it and knew it was a trap set by Kenneth. After thinking about it for a moment, she replied, "Kenneth, are you proposing to me right now?"

She turned the tables around and threw the question back to him.

The three children's gaze shifted from her to Kenneth.

Their eyes were filled with excitement.

Is Daddy really proposing right now?

However, Kenneth gazed at Natasha with a faint smile on his face. Naturally, he did not want to propose right now. However, he suddenly wanted to know her response if he were to do it.

"What if it is?"

Without hesitation, Natasha extended her hand. "Where's the ring?"

Kenneth was rendered speechless.

He pursed his lips as he stared at her slender hand. Emotions swirled in his eyes as he remained silent.

He didn't expect things to progress in that manner. However, he would never propose to her in such a circumstance.

He owed her too much to do that, so he was determined to repay her.

I will give her everything she deserves.

Seeing that he was not speaking, Natasha knew Kenneth had gotten too carried away with the conversation. Her lips curled up into a smile. "There's no ring? Then, that's it. I don't want to take responsibility for you."

"If there is, will you accept it?" Kenneth countered.

Natasha pondered about it. "I can't guarantee that."

Kenneth narrowed his eyes.

"Marriage is a cumbersome matter, so it might not suit me. Maybe staying single is better."

Kenneth frowned upon hearing that. He stretched his hands to pull her into his embrace and said in a low voice, "Even if you're not married, you are not single. You have a boyfriend."

Natasha tried to contain her laughter. "Kenneth, you act as if you weren't married when you were. Why don't I have the right to the same freedoms when I'm simply dating?"

Kenneth stared at her.

He knew she was trying to agitate him.

However, he still fell for it. With his gaze still on her, he told the three children. "The three of you, turn around."

The trio had been watching the drama unfold in front of them and paused for a second when they heard Kenneth's words. They quickly turned around, realizing what was about to happen was inappropriate for them to witness.

The next second, Kenneth leaned in and pressed his lips against Natasha's.

Natasha's eyelashes quivered slightly.

However, she did not dare to make any sound since the children were with them. She could only grab Kenneth's collar.

After a moment, Kenneth finally let her go when he felt Natasha's legs give way.

"Are you still going to agitate me?" he asked.

Natasha shook her head.

"Then, is being married or being single better?" he continued.

Natasha placed her head on his chest. "Well, I still haven't gotten a taste of how sweet a marriage can be."

"Then, you will get a taste of it in the future, Nat. I'll make sure you're the happiest person in the world," Kenneth enunciated each word.

Natasha replied, "Then, I shall look forward to it."

Benjamin shuddered as he listened to their conversation. "I can't listen to this any longer. It's too cheesy. I have to get out of here." Then, he ran out without waiting for them to reply. Anthony turned back and glanced at Kenneth and Natasha. With a disdainful look, he said, "Yes, it's a little corny..."

He shivered and went after Benjamin.

Meanwhile, Denise did not leave.

She said, "They know nothing. This is so romantic."

Then, she turned back to look at the two adults with a longing expression. "Daddy, Nat, you guys are so romantic! It's even better than those romance dramas I watched." Natasha and Kenneth were speechless.

"Please ignore me and continue." Denise rested her chin on her hands as though she was watching the television intently.

"Denise, shouldn't you go with your brothers and give us some space?" Kenneth queried.

A thought crossed Denise's mind all of a sudden. I'm not watching the television. This is real life!

"Oh, I forgot. You guys continue. I'll take my leave then." With that, she smiled and left reluctantly.

After Denise shut the door, Kenneth spoke up. "Denise is not as sensible as she was before. I have to teach her a lesson later." Natasha simply kept quiet and smiled at him.

Kenneth glanced back at her. Just as he leaned in to plant a kiss on her lips, Natasha extended her hand to block it.

Kenneth furrowed his brows in dissatisfaction. "What is it?"

Natasha stared at him and said seriously, "Let's talk about some serious matters. What should we treat Dave?"

A crease appeared between Kenneth's brows.

"He's your friend, not mine. I don't know what he likes," Natasha continued.

"He's not picky with food." With that, Kenneth leaned in again. This time, his lips wandered around her neck.

Natasha avoided Kenneth again and enquired, "I thought about it. I feel like something's missing. Why don't we go out and eat? Please give me some suggestions." Kenneth sighed helplessly. His lips left her body, and he gave her a hard stare. "Since it's a meal, eating out feels a little odd. I think we should have it at home."

"Here?"

Kenneth nodded.

"Then, what kind of cuisine should we have?"

"The best cooks are here. They can make anything you want," Kenneth replied.

Natasha interjected, "There's no meaning to it if the meal is made by the cooks."

This led to Kenneth asking, "Are you thinking of cooking the meal yourself?"

Natasha narrowed her eyes. "If it's possible, I would be happy. However, I'm afraid you might lose this friend if I did."

"I haven't tried the food you cook, so you're not allowed to cook for someone else," he muttered. He seethed with jealousy when he thought about her cooking for some other men. Natasha pondered for a long time. "I know my limit, so let's forget about it. Although I may not know how to cook, someone else does..."

Kenneth narrowed his eyes.

Suddenly, Natasha had an idea. "I got it."

"What is it?" Kenneth questioned.

Natasha suddenly stood up. "I'll go and discuss this with Anthony and Benjamin. I'll let you know after it's confirmed." Before Kenneth could say anything, she left. Kenneth's eyes narrowed as he gazed at her back.

If she can remain like this, it would be wonderful.

However, his eyes filled with worry when he thought about her condition.
