Chapter 769 The Truth About Spencer And Thalia

Spencer's eyes darkened as he scrutinized Natasha.

All he saw was a relaxed expression and a languid look in her eyes. Nowhere did he manage to find a hint of anger in her.

“Are you serious?” Spencer asked.

“Do I look like I'm joking?” Natasha countered.

Nevertheless, Spencer was filled with hesitation still.

“Don't worry; your secret is safe with me. I'll definitely not tell Thalia about it.” Natasha made a last-ditch effort to reassure him.

Staring at her, Spencer paused momentarily before relenting in the end. “Fine, I'll tell you.”

Natasha straightened her posture immediately and was all ears. “Go on.”

As Spencer took a deep breath, his eyes seemed to drift away to another time. “Many years ago, I met Thalia went I was traveling in a far-flung place...”

Natasha remained seated while listening to Spencer relate the past. When he finally got to the end, she couldn't help but knit her brows slightly.

“Are you saying...”

“That's right. That man was Thalia's father.” Spencer nodded as a sorrowful look descended upon his face.

If it wasn't for that, there was no way he would have rejected such a wonderful girl.

Natasha's eyes began to sparkle gradually now that she finally knew what Spencer meant by owing Thalia his life.

Lips pursed and brows knitted, she finally understood how complicated the matter was.

Any other reason would have been easier to overcome but to have killed her father...

Narrowing her eyes, Natasha nodded. “All right. I understand.”

Spencer gazed at her. “Nat, I know the debt is mine and that I shouldn't burden you with it, but I'm left with no choice. Never have I hated myself so much for my own incompetence. If only it were possible, I would be willing to compensate you with my own life!”

“Spencer, you don't owe me anything. And don't you forget about the number of times you have saved me,” Natasha comforted him.

If not for Spencer back then, I would have been bullied terribly...

Spencer stared at her, his eyes brimming with conflicting emotions.

“That's why you should go ahead and do whatever you want. I'm fine with it,” Natasha replied as she stared right into his eyes.

Spencer was shaken. “But you...”

“It's just an antidote, and it's not like my life is under immediate threat. Besides, there might only be one, but it isn't the only solution,” Natasha added.

“But what if...”

“That will be up to you. I have faith that with your capabilities, you'll definitely come up with something.”

Gazing into her eyes, Spencer felt torn inside.

Nonetheless, Natasha flashed a carefree smile. “Enough talk already. The matter's settled.” With that, she got up to leave. However, when something struck her at the last moment, she turned around. “By the way, I would suggest that you keep this from Thalia. Otherwise, she'll refuse to take the antidote.”

“Nat...”

Natasha grinned at him. “Also, no one can change the past. If you really feel that you have let Thalia down, leaving her isn't the right solution. Instead, making amends is!”

“Making amends?”

Natasha nodded. “Yes, making amends. Spend the rest of your life making it up to her as a way to repay your debt.”

When her words left Spencer stunned, the smiling Natasha got up and left.

Just when she placed her hand on the doorknob, Spencer stood up suddenly. “Nat...”

Natasha stopped in her tracks.

“Thank you.”

Natasha turned around and said, “That's not what I want to hear.”

“Don't worry. I'll do my very best to develop the antidote!”

“That's more like it.” Flashing a wide grin, Natasha opened the door and left.

Spencer's gaze was filled with conflicted emotions as he stared at her leaving silhouette. Once the door closed behind her, he tightly clenched both his fists.

After walking out the door, Natasha slumped against the wall right after she turned a corner.

As she lifted her head slightly, her reddened eyes betrayed her emotions despite the calm look on her face.

Her chest heaved as she tried to get a grip on herself.

She didn't regret the decision one bit but was nevertheless saddened by the outcome.

She had let her children and Kenneth down, a feeling made worse when it came to Terence.

Earlier in her life, she had ignored their concerns in her pursuit of the truth. And now, she was disregarding their feelings again by unilaterally making a decision.

As a result, she had failed a duty as not just a granddaughter but also a mother.

Leaning against the wall, Natasha took a long time to get her emotions under control.

It wasn't that she lacked the desire to continue living. The danger of coming over had required her to be prepared for death.

“But what if...”

“That will ba up to you. I hava faith that with your capabilitias, you'll dafinitaly coma up with somathing.”
