You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 132

At the end of the argument, Liam and Terence jerked their heads to opposing sides, refusing to look at each other.

Neither of them entertained the other anymore.

Finally, the room went silent once again.

Just when everyone thought that the battle was over, Liam glanced at Anthony and called out to him with a loving expression on his face.

“Come here and let me have a good look at you, Anthony.”

Hearing that, Anthony proceeded to walk over. At that precise moment, Terence cleared his throat and ordered with his gaze turned to the ceiling. “Come over here, Anthony. I've got something to say to you.”

Anthony froze in his tracks, uncertain about the direction in which he should head.

As soon as Liam heard that, he glowered at

Terence and snarled, “Are you determined to go against me, Terence?”

Terence merely swept a gaze over him. His expression made it clear that he was deliberately going against the man and provoking him. “Have you forgotten your promise to me, Anthony?” he enunciated.

Throughout it all, Anthony maintained an awkward yet consummate fake smile on his petite face.

Is this the so-called burden of love? But why do they treat me so differently from Benjamin and Denise?

Blinking his innocent eyes, he cast his gaze at Natasha, seemingly using his eyes to implore for help. Save me, Nat!

On the contrary, Natasha wore a nonchalant expression, leaving him to fend for himself.

In that situation, no one dared to speak.

“Come over here, Anthony!” Liam asserted.

“Come over here, Anthony!” Terence countered.

Once again, the battle between the two elderly men erupted.

“Anthony!”

“Anthony!”

Anthony stared at them both, knowing deep within him that he definitely couldn't take sides right then.

No matter who I hurt, it won't be easy to resolve.

After pondering for a moment, he smacked himself on the head. “I suddenly remembered that it's Monday today! I've got to go to school, so I'll be leaving first! Take care, Gramps, Great-grandpa!” Having said that, he fled the room without waiting for them to respond, dragging Thalia along.

“Anthony!” Liam wore a helpless and regretful expression as he gazed at Anthony's back. I haven't seen enough of my great-grandson!

Seeing that neither of them succeeded, Terence shot a glare at Liam. He appeared all determined to make life difficult for the man.

Furious, Liam snapped his head away once more and ignored him.

Hah! A friend of more than five decades? Let's just sever our friendship!

Outside, Anthony glanced back over his shoulder as the door slammed shut.

Only when he saw that no one had chased after him did he relax.

He exhaled deeply, but before he could turn back, someone pinched his ear.

“How dare you lie to me, Anthony Watson?” Thalia snarled as she pinched his ear. Argh! Only God knows how long I restrained myself in there!

“Ouch! Ouch! It hurts!” Anthony went on his tiptoes, leaning forward in her direction.

“It hurts? You can still feel, huh? I've been helping you for such a long time, yet you've been keeping me in the dark all this while! Do you have any conscience, Anthony?” Thalia was in a fit of pique.

“I haven't been keeping you in the dark!

When did I do so?” “Kenneth Hamilton is your biological father! Yet, you still dare claim that you didn't lie to me?”

At that, Thalia's lips curved into a sneer. “There's no use yakking with me. I just knew that grasping on to the other person's weakness means having an edge over the person no matter what!”

Anthony thought seriously for a while before he flashed her an ingratiating smile.

“Okay, okay, I know you're the kindest person despite your tough exterior. After all, all beauties are like you!” “Don't pull that with me!”

“Hey, don't be mad that I didn't tell you. I didn't mean to keep it a secret from you either!”

“You didn't mean it?” Thalia evidently didn't believe him.

“Well... It's a long story,” Anthony murmured, putting on a sorrowful expression.

Still, Thalia was disdainful.

“You know I grew up in a single-parent family, right?” Anthony inquired.

“So what?”

“Although my dad... I mean, Kenneth, is willing to sacrifice his life for my mommy now, she was very pitiful back then. She was abandoned by him. At that time, my mommy was already pregnant with me. She was afraid that he wouldn't allow her to have me, so she went abroad with me. It was only recently that she came back because of my maternal great-grandfather. Actually, I never knew about my relationship with Kenneth. It was after a coincidental meeting that I started harboring suspicions.”

As Thalia listened to him, she was seemingly drawn into the story. “Then what happened?”

“Do you still remember back when I sought Kyle out?”

“Yup!”

“The DNA test I asked him to do was between me and Kenneth!” Anthony revealed.

Understanding dawned upon Thalia. “Ah, I see.” But as she looked at him, she abruptly realized something and shrieked, “Even then, you've known for some time!”

“Be patient and listen to me.” Anthony's gaze was fixated on her. Gah! Why is she so impatient?

“Okay, fine! Go on.” For the sake of hearing the full story, Thalia held herself back.
