You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 237

He didn't want to bring up the dark past, nor did he want them to know about it.

Terence shifted his gaze toward Anthony as he said, “You didn't approve of Kenneth before, so why were you defending him so much today?”

I can't afford to mess around if I want to make this work. I'll have to bring out some legitimate facts as well.

With that in mind, Anthony said, “I disapproved of Daddy before because I didn't know him that well. After spending some time with him, I realized that he wasn't as bad as I had imagined. I can see he's putting a lot of effort into winning Nat over. On top of that, finding out that those incidents were fake also helped me

view him in a different light.”

Terence didn't know what to say after hearing Anthony's sincere reply.

“Gramps, I know you care deeply about Nat and don't want her to get hurt. However, there's no way to guarantee that she won't get hurt dating someone else,” Anthony added.

Benjamin chimed in as well, “Take Zachary, for example. He is a decent person, but the same cannot be said about his family. I can't imagine what would happen to Nat if she dated him!”

Terence frowned upon hearing them mention Zachary.

I used to try really hard to pair them up with each other... Now that I've seen Zachary's mother and what happened to the Lynch family, I'm glad things didn't work out between him and Nat! She would've ended up in a worse situation than she did with Kenneth! These two do make a good point. In this modern age, dating feels like a gamble regardless of who you choose. You never know what will happen in the future, let alone see a person's true nature from their appearance. It's almost like a blind audition.

Noticing that Terence was in deep thought, Anthony continued, “Gramps, I know you still have some issues with Daddy. To be honest, we haven't fully approved of him just yet. However, we believe he's a candidate worthy of consideration. The three of us wouldn't approve of him if he were still the same person from before, but he might've changed. If that's the case, then he would be a decent option. With how much you know him and the three of us around, I don't think Daddy would dare cross the line.”

Terence looked at them and asked,

“What are you two suggesting, then?

What should I do?” “Not much, really. Just don't stop them from being together. Let nature take its course,” Anthony replied with a smile.

Terence chuckled. “Heh, so this is why you two wanted to come shopping for groceries with me? Go on, then. Tell me, how did Kenneth convince you two to take his side?”

“He did no such thing!” Anthony said.

“We swear!” Benjamin added.

“You mean you two are doing this of your own accord?”

“We just want Nat to be happy!” Anthony replied.

“Yeah! That way, she'll have someone around to look after her when we're gone!” Benjamin added.

“Gone? Where will you kids be going?” Terence asked.

Anthony shot him a fierce glare in response.

Do you not think before you speak ?

Realizing that he had almost let it slip, Benjamin quickly made up an excuse on the fly. “To school, of course! Besides, we won't be kids forever! Eventually, we'll all grow up and have our own stuff to do, so we won't be around Nat all the time.”

Yeah, that makes sense. They're still kids, so where could they possibly go anyway ?

Not thinking much about it, Terence said with a nod, “All right, I understand what you two are trying to tell me. I'll take this into consideration.”

Anthony and Benjamin felt relieved when they saw him give in. “You're the best, Gramps! We knew you'd want the best for Nat!”

“Of course! She's my granddaughter, after all!”

“Gramps, could you tell us why Daddy divorced Nat if he had liked her since they were kids? Was it really because he found her too unfashionable?” Benjamin asked. He had seen pictures of Natasha from a few years ago. While it was true that she looked unfashionable, it wasn't bad enough to warrant a divorce.

Anthony, too, looked at Terence curiously after hearing that.

Despite Terence's attempts at avoiding the topic, Benjamin had led the conversation right back to it.
