You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth)

Chapter 133

“That was when I found out my relationship with him was genuine. However, I never interacted with him or planned to acknowledge him as family. It's only because of my mommy's matter did we actually interact,” Anthony said as he shrugged.

“So that means Kenneth previously didn't know about your existence too?” Thalia asked.

“Obviously he didn't.”

Thalia then fell deep into her thoughts. A long while later, she mumbled earnestly, “Your mother is impressive and great.”

Anthony nodded in agreement. “Yes, it was challenging for her to give birth to me and raise me. Moreover, she was scared that Kenneth would find out about me and take me away, so I never thought of acknowledging him as my father, nor do I want to admit that I'm related to him. That's why I never told you about this.” Anthony had finally explained the entire incident to Thalia.

Thalia could understand the logic behind his actions, and she could empathize with them.

“How can Kenneth be such a douchebag? He's doing your mother wrong despite how pretty she is. What a b*stard!”

Anthony nodded in agreement. “Indeed!”

“You've done the right thing for this. Someone like Kenneth shouldn't have children. The bloodline should end with him!”

Hold on. Aren't you cursing at me?

Anthony whipped his head aside to look at Thalia.

Thalia only realized what she had said a beat later, and she quickly replied, “That's not what I meant. What I'm saying is that someone like Kenneth should have an ending like this. But who would have thought that he would be so lucky to have a son like you?”

“That's right!” Anthony bobbed his head in agreement again.

“My, at the end of the day, I'd rather have a good life than be a good person,” Thalia said wistfully.

Again, Anthony inclined his head.

Right then, Thalia turned to him. “Although that was what happened, and you have your own plans, you should have still told me about it earlier. After all, I've said so many things about Kenneth...” Thalia trailed off, her voice getting softer and softer.

“Don't worry. I won't tell him about anything you've said,” Anthony told her.

“It's not that I'm scared he'll find out about it!” Thalia was not going to admit that she had chickened out.

“Of course. You're definitely not scared of him!” Anthony responded in support.

“Still, our relationships with Kenneth are rather sensitive. I was still thinking that it was fine since you're not his biological kid, but it's different now.” Thalia then mulled over the incident again. “If Kyle finds out about this, he'll be f*cking surprised too!”

Right then, a thought struck Thalia. “You didn't leave the organization because of Kenneth, right?”

Anthony instantly shook his head. “No. There's no way I'd do that!”

“Really? Do you swear on it?”

“I swear on it. There's zero chance that I'll do that!” Anthony swore as he raised his hand.

It was then Thalia became at ease. “I'd believe in you, but... it's a different case for Kyle.”

Anthony chuckled and said, “Don't worry. He has no other way around this but to believe me.”

When Thalia turned to him, Anthony realized that she was going to tell him something else, so he immediately dropped the smile and pretended to be serious.

“Who said that? He has another way around this,” Thalia said.

What?”

Thalia drew her thumb across her neck.

Anthony hummed in rumination. “Well, that isn't completely illogical either.”

“Glad that you know that.”

“So I'll depend on you to keep me safe!” Anthony said as he beamed at her.

In the many days she had spent with Anthony, he had spent most of the time acting like a miniature adult—he was solemn. Although he did smile, the smiles he had were rarely like a child's.

At that moment...

Oh my. I can only blame myself for not being immune to this face of his. How can he be so cute and sweet? He makes others want to dote on him!

Thalia rolled her eyes at him. “Anyway, you're not allowed to hide anything from me in the future.”

“Okay!” Anthony nodded.

“If I find out that you've hidden something from me again, I'll—” Thalia warned.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

“What?” Anthony asked.

Thalia gave him a mysterious grin. “Do you know how the eunuchs of olden times pee?”

Anthony fell silent.

Thalia caressed his cheeks and asked, “Do you get me, Darling?”

Anthony instantly beamed and bobbed his head obediently.

“Good boy. Let's go!”

Anthony followed her out.

All of a sudden, he remembered something.

“Thalia?”

“Call me Goddess.”

“G-Goddess...”

“Speak.” “What if I were to say that I still have something else I'm hiding from you?”

Thalia immediately shot a look at him.

Anthony hastily smiled and continued, “I was kidding. It was just a random thought.”

Thalia finally looked away from him and continued her way out.

Anthony quietly let out a sigh of relief.

I think... it's best to let nature take its course for that matter. At most, I'll take one step at a time.

After Fabian was done with his matters, he headed straight to the hospital.

When he saw Kenneth lying on the bed with several spots bandaged up, he was wracked with worry and fear.

Kenneth glanced at him. “Why are you standing so far?”

Fabian took a few steps forward in response, but still, he was fearful. “Mr. Hamilton, I never thought that things would turn out this way...”

Kenneth sneered, “If you had spoken a little more nonsense on the call the other day, you would have been my employer right now.

“No, no, no!" Fabian cried out. “You will always be my employer, Mr. Hamilton! That will never change!”

He was certainly ready to butter Kenneth up.

Kenneth ignored him and asked, “How are things going?”

Fabian took a brave step forward and replied, “I've discussed this with the lawyer. Gary's still bedridden, and he really is grievously injured. However, he has regained some of his consciousness, and the police have talked to him. He has admitted to everything he has done, but he insists that Gaston isn't the one who instructed him to do them.”

Kenneth narrowed his eyes. “We went to meet Gaston, and his reactions had seemed genuine. It doesn't look like he was faking them, so he's probably not the one behind this.” “That's the strange part. If it wasn't Gaston, then why would he look for Ms. Watson?”

Fabian wondered. “If he wants to take revenge, shouldn't he be looking for you?”

Kenneth looked up at the other man.

Realizing what he had just said, Fabian quickly uttered, “That's not what I meant, Mr. Hamilton. I'm just... stating the facts.” He then flashed Kenneth a flattering smile.

Kenneth looked away, not wanting to answer him.

However, his lips were pursed and his brows were drawn together. What Fabian had mentioned was what he was wondering as well.

Right then, Fabian seemed to recall something. “By the way, Mr. Hamilton, although Gary seems like he has some mental disability, I heard that his IQ is much higher than the average person.”

That was something Kenneth had noticed when they interacted.

Gary was no ordinary person with a mental disorder.

With that thought, an idea entered

Kenneth's mind.

He looked at Fabian. “Come here.”

Fabian came closer to him.

“Come closer,” Kenneth ordered.

Fabian anxiously leaned closer, and Kenneth whispered something in his ear.

The more Fabian heard, the brighter his eyes became.
