You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 311

Her lack of response elicited a frown on Zachary's face.

“Do you not believe me?” he asked.

“I do," she replied.

“Really?” Zachary repeated his question in a helpless tone, for he was unconvinced by her answer.

“If you really had something to do with it, Thea wouldn't have been the only one I took away,” Natasha replied.

She was speaking the truth, and yet, it was also a veiled threat.

Furthermore, she didn't sound as if she was bragging when the words rolled off her mouth. Instead, it felt as if she was just relating the facts of the situation.

As for Zachary, he stared at her with an unfathomable look in his eyes.

Without him noticing, Natasha had become someone different from the person he knew. The young and vibrant aura he felt from her was now replaced by a mysterious air that seemed to be hiding something.

A short while later, Zachary finally nodded. “I'm glad that you believe me. That's all I'm concerned about.”

Just when Natasha narrowed her eyes to speak, Zachary beat her to it. “I saw the news about Thea. From the looks of it, Kenneth is probably the one who did it. I still can't believe how cruel he can be to his ex.”

Natasha looked up at him the moment she heard his words. “Zachary, since when have you become so despicable as to sow discord?”

Zachary knitted his brows. “I was just stating the truth—”

“The truth is he has nothing to do with what happened to Thea,” Natasha cut him off, shocking him in the process.

“Also, let's set aside the topic of who's responsible. Zachary, if your ex harmed your child, are you still going to turn a blind eye to it for old times' sake?” Natasha questioned him.

The question was obviously a trap.

“That’s not what I meant—”

Natasha sneered, “I don’t know what you will do in that situation, but as an outsider, you will always choose to criticize the actions of others.”

Zachary's face turned grim, for Natasha's words struck him like a forceful slap.

By then, Natasha, who was not in the mood to continue the conversation, got to her feet. “If there's nothing else, I’m leaving.”

“Nat!” Zachary called out suddenly. Looking at her silhouette, he asked in a hesitant tone, “Is there really no going back for us?”

Pursing her lips at him, Natasha paused briefly before replying, “I can look past what happened between your parents and me, but are you capable of doing so?” Natasha asked.

As he gazed into her eyes, a hesitant look flashed across his face.

“Despite the fact that you disagree with them and are aware that they wronged me first, you, Zachary, still hate me for it.” Natasha laid out the facts word by word.

“I don't...” Zachary replied.

Natasha's lips curled into a smirk.

“You should really ask yourself that question.”

Staring at Natasha, Zachary felt as if the gulf between them had reached proportions that could never be surmounted.

“Also, regardless of what you're planning with Thea, let me give you a final warning as a friend. Stop it before you lose everything.”

Natasha had barely finished and was about to leave when Zachary burst into sudden laughter. “Lose everything? Hasn't that already happened? My family, my parents, and you... I have lost everything a long time ago. What else do I have to fear?”

“She was never yours to lose.” Out of nowhere, a deep voice interrupted their conversation.

When Zachary looked up, he was greeted by the sight of Kenneth standing two meters away. With his hands in his pockets, Kenneth was giving him a curious look and seemed to have been standing there for some time.

The sight of him ignited the hatred in Zachary's eyes.

When Natasha saw him too, she frowned. “Why are you here?”

Kenneth shifted his gaze from Zachary to Natasha as he walked to her side, wearing a grin. “I came because I was missing you, but little did I expect that my timing was perfect.”

“Your timing has always been uncanny,” Natasha teased.
