You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 319

A winner remained undecided even after an extended period of battle.

Kyle was nervous and excited. Based on the time alone, Anthony had broken Shadow Seeker's record.

No one had managed to survive an attack from Shadow Seeker for more than five minutes.

Anthony was the first to achieve that.

Kyle: Steady, Anthony! If you win against Shadow Seeker, you'll be the number one hacker in the world!

Before Anthony continued his counterattack, he replied: Shut up!

Natasha was fast, but Anthony wasn't slow either. Both of them attacked each other while defending themselves.

The admiration in her eyes was beginning to change.

It was because she felt the person she was facing wasn't any worse than her in terms of speed and skill. Most importantly, his skills were extremely similar to hers.

It was as though there was a copy of her in the world.

Suddenly, her movements stopped. As she stared at the screen, a serious look appeared in her eyes. It was also then Anthony suddenly attacked as though he had gained an advantage. Concurrently, Natasha found a hole in his defense and infiltrated his computer.

When she saw her opponent's IP address, her eyebrows furrowed.

It was different from what she expected.

Still, a thought began taking root in her mind.

At that moment, she got up and exited her room. When she arrived in front of Anthony's room, she paused. However, as the possibility popped into her mind again, she couldn't hold herself back and entered the room.

Anthony was preparing to shut down his computer and go to sleep.

The moment he saw her walking in, he was stunned.

Thankfully, he reacted quickly by smiling at her. “Why aren't you asleep yet, Nat? It's getting pretty late.”

An intrigued look colored her expression as she stared at him. “Yeah, I'm not sleeping yet.”

“What's the matter, then?” Anthony asked while looking incredibly innocent.

Natasha's gaze swept past his computer before returning to him. “What were you doing just now?”

“I was just... playing a game! I'm about to head to sleep.”

“Oh, a game, is it?” She intentionally dragged out the pronunciation for “game” whilst appearing to be deep in thought.

“Is there anything else, Nat?”

There was a brief silence as she thought about what to do before she walked into the room. “My computer's broken, so I want to use yours for a second.”

Anthony was speechless.

If it were anyone else, they wouldn't discover anything should they turn on the computer. However, nothing could be hidden from Natasha when it came to computers.

Seeing how she was about to turn it on, he spoke. “Even if it is an urgent matter, can't you use the computer tomorrow? I'm very tired right now. I want to sleep.”

“Go sleep then. I'll be quick, and I won't disturb you.”

There was no way he could sleep.

Right as the computer was getting turned on, he uttered, “I was wrong, Nat!”

Natasha glanced at Anthony. “What did you do wrong?”

He pursed his lips. “I—”

“You were the person from earlier, weren't you?” A question leaped out of her mouth abruptly.

He raised his eyes and met with hers.

It stunned him as he realized there was no way he could hide the secret.

What kind of monsters have I given birth to? Even though she was usually pretty calm, that revelation got to her.

He continued, “Benjamin and Denise only know how to do it a little bit. They're sensitive to numbers, but they aren't interested in hacking, so they didn't learn how to do it better. I'm the only one doing this regularly...” “Then you're really excellent at it!” A faint chill traveled down Anthony's spine when he heard that.

The gears in his mind turned before he revealed a flattering smile. “That's because your genes are exceptional, Nat! I'm just inheriting your truly awesome genes!”

“When did you learn how to butter people up?”

“I'm simply being truthful.”

“Then why weren’t you being truthful before?”

“I was wrong!” He immediately lowered his head.

Natasha stared at him. It wasn't like she wanted to reprimand him. Everyone had their secrets. She knew that. It was just unexpected to her how shocking her son's secret was.

She thought about what to say before staring at him again. “So you have always known who I am?”

Anthony nodded.

Natasha pursed her lips. It turns out I can't hide things from my children at all, even though I thought I did a pretty good job being mysterious.

“That one I didn't tell anyone, not even Benjamin or Denise!” he added.

‘What about Thalia?” “She was gunning for you, so of course, I didn't tell her!” His tone sounded serious.

He was aware of how valuable any information about Shadow Seeker was after mingling with other hackers. Some wanted to ask for money from her, while others wanted to take her life. He wasn't an idiot, so he didn’t expose anything.

Even if telling Thalia was perfectly safe, he still wouldn't easily place the life of his mother in someone else's hands.

He wouldn't be at ease no matter who it was.

As she stared at her son, emotions flashed across her eyes. It seems like he's good.
