You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 223

Zachary stroked along Thea's arm, causing shivers to run through her body.

“What? Weren't you raging just a second ago? Your body... seems to imply otherwise!” Zachary's teasing voice rang out beside her ear.

Thea's expression was a mixture of anger and resignation. She shot him a sidelong glance and questioned, “How do you think Natasha will feel if she sees you like this, Zachary?”

Zachary immediately stiffened at the mention of Natasha. His playful gaze earlier morphed into one of fury.

Alas, Natasha was his Achilles heel.

A second later, Zachary grabbed Thea's hair and threatened, “I told you before never to bring up her name again!”

Undeterred by his show of violence, Thea raised her head and sneered, “Why not? Because you'll lose control once her name comes up? Haven't you wondered what she's doing right now? She might well be celebrating with Kenneth this very instant.”

Zachary shoved her away and yelled, “Get out! Right now!”

Thea stumbled from his sudden movement. No one had mistreated her like this before, and her disbelief and rage were palpable in her gaze.

She turned around to glare at him before mocking, “I thought you were a vengeful person, Zachary, but it seems your temper far exceeds your actual talents!”

Zachary listened on wordlessly.

It seemed as though Thea's words had done little to spur him into action.

He grabbed a glass of liquor from the table and knocked it back in one shot.

Thea continued her mockery, “Kenneth was clearly behind this whole fiasco. I won't blame you if you think you can't beat him and want to give up. After all, you were never his match in the first place. When it comes to women, career, or family, he easily trumps you in every aspect. Natasha was smart not to choose you.”

Crash!

The sound of breaking glass filled the air.

Before Thea could react, Zachary pounced on her and clamped his hand around her neck, pinning her against the wall. He warned, “Don't test my patience, Thea!”

Thea's face reddened as she gasped for air. Still, she replied, “Why not? I'm just telling the truth. Look at yourself. Your family is in tatters while Kenneth's enjoying a happy reunion. He could be fooling around with Natasha right this minute—”

“I said, stop talking!” Zachary clamped his hand tighter around her neck, his eyes bloodshot with rage. He looked as though he could end her life at any moment.

Despite how suffocated she felt, a red-faced Thea continued to give Zachary a mocking and pitiful stare.

Just as she thought she was about to faint from the lack of oxygen, Zachary suddenly loosened his hand.

Thea collapsed to the ground and desperately gasped for air. Her body heaved with waves of hacking coughs.

Meanwhile, Zachary knelt and looked at her coldly. “I'll show you how Kenneth kneels before me and begs for mercy. Let's see if you can still accept your idol when he's meekly begging for his life.”

She returned his cold gaze.

This man is far too temperamental. He's psychotic, but isn't his madness and vengefulness exactly what I want?

Satisfied with his newfound motivation, Thea said, “Well then, when does your plan start?”

“It has already started!” Zachary said with a smile.

She narrowed her eyes suspiciously and asked, “Already? Why didn't you tell me?”

“Well, now you know, right?”

“Does that mean you wouldn't have told me anything if I hadn't come to see you?”
