The conversation eventually ended there.

It was evident that Kenneth still couldn’t get over the matter.

After pondering for a while, Natasha looked at him and questioned back, “What about you?”

“I have never thought of giving the two children up!” Kenneth responded seriously, enunciating every single word.

“I meant to ask if you regretted what you did to me,” Natasha replied.

Kenneth paused for a while before responding, “Those are two different matters.”

“It is the same thing!” Natasha said. “If you hadn’t treated me like that back then, I wouldn’t have kept it from you either.”

Kenneth pursed his thin lips and fell silent.

“You’ve never thought of giving the two children up but would you have allowed them to stay with me? Would you allow them to have a mother like me, whom you find to be such a disgrace? You won’t,” Natasha continued with certainty. “So even if I did that out of my own selfish intentions, is there any problem with that? Why should I keep your flesh and blood and make myself go through the pain of parting with them?”

Kenneth remained silent.

Natasha went on, “So don’t just put all the blame on me. I admit that my actions were selfish, but I have to say that it was the best outcome for both of us. There’s nothing tying us together, and we wouldn’t have to deal with each other. And there wouldn’t be a need for us to be an indispensable part of each other’s lives.”

“If they were still here, I wouldn’t mind,” Kenneth replied.

Natasha glanced at him and was stunned for a moment before saying, “I mind.”

Kenneth’s gaze was full of doubts as he looked at her.

“I don’t have the upper hand in this matter, so I won’t choose to make myself suffer. If I had the choice, I hope that the one who’s in misery is you.” Natasha’s words were frank and direct.

She couldn’t care less if he called her selfish or merciless, as that was exactly the type of person she was.
