You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 351

Nearby the port, a truck full of goods pulled out, followed by two ordinary cars.

When the truck passed him by, Anthony whispered into his earpiece, “The truck is heading over there!”

“Got it. Denise is live reporting everything to me,” Thalia said.

“I'll leave it to you then.”

“See you after half an hour,” Thalia replied.

“Okay.”

As the car behind the truck approached, Anthony took off his earpiece and put on an innocent look as he went forward.

He dashed forward and stopped the car.

The driver was startled by the boy's sudden appearance and hit the brakes immediately.

He wound down the car window and shouted at Anthony, “Hey kid! What are you doing?”

Anthony approached them and gave them a puppy-eyed look as he said, “Please help me. My brother and I have lost our way and can't go home. Could you please help send us home?”

The driver furrowed his brows in response. At the sight of the widening gap between his car and the truck, he said irritably, “Go away, child.”

Of course, Anthony would not budge. He stepped forward and said, “Please. My mommy and daddy will be so grateful and thank you guys with gifts if you will be so kind as to send us home!”

The driver eyed Anthony from head to toe. Judging by his lavish clothes, the driver reckoned that Anthony did come from a wealthy family.

However, the truck in front was more important.

“Let me repeat myself one more time. Go away! Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!”

Anthony kept up with the innocent look and continued pleading, “In that case, can I borrow your phone so that I can call my mommy and daddy? I'll ask them to come over and fetch us!”

“Go away!” the man hissed.

Then, a man from the car behind them got out and approached them.

He looked at Anthony and Benjamin and asked with a puzzled look on his face, “What's the matter?”

The man in the front car replied, “This kid claims to have lost his way, and he's asking us to send him home.”

Anthony turned to look at the man from the second car and said, “Mister, could you help us out? I would be really grateful if you could lend me your phone. Otherwise, my brother and I will have no choice but to roam the streets!”

The man merely eyed them from head to toe.

Anthony took off his necklace and said, “Mister, my daddy has gifted me this necklace. I heard that it is worth a lot. I'm going to give it to you guys. Could you guys please lend me your phone?”

The man took over Anthony's necklace and hesitated for a moment before handing over his phone.

“Thank you, mister!”

The man said nothing.

Anthony took the phone and entered a series of numbers, pretending as if he was making a call.

Soon, the call went through.

“Mommy, where are you?” Anthony said. “Ben and I are lost. Were at the port. Yes, please come pick us up! All right, I will wait here with Ben. Please hurry up. We're hungry and really scared.”

On the other end of the phone, Thalia was executing her mission. Anthony could hear her working in the background. She teased as she worked, “I consider myself very lucky to be able to witness you in action in this lifetime.”

Anthony was scoffing at her inwardly, but he was still putting on an adorable look on the outside.

“All right, Mommy. When are you coming to pick us up?” Anthony asked.

“I'm working on it. Have some patience. It's going to be done soon,” Thalia said casually.

“Okay, understood.”

After hanging up the call, Anthony took a deep breath, and as he turned around to face the men, he was already all smiles. “Thank you, mister. My mommy will come to fetch us soon.”

The man glanced at him and said, “It's already so late. What are kids like you doing over here?”

Anthony paused for a moment before saying, “Daddy and Mommy brought us somewhere around here at night. My little brother was naughty and ran off. I came to look for him. Then, both of us were lost.”

What he said made sense.

The group of men could not seem to pinpoint anything wrong in his explanation.
