You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 412

Just as Natasha entered the hotel, her phone rang.

Taking a glance at the caller ID, she fell into deep thought. Moments later, she answered the call.

“Hello.”

As she spoke, she walked toward the elevator.

Meanwhile, the hotel staff, who assisted Kenneth and Dave in the search, came from opposite directions. As she walked past Natasha, she had a good whiff of the woody scent of Natasha's perfume. Instantly, she looked up and was immediately stunned.

Eh? Isn't she the one they have been looking for?

Frowning, she quickly recalled the image from the surveillance footage. Unfortunately, the elevator doors slid shut when she wanted to check further.

Rushing to the elevator, the staff pressed the button. By the time she got upstairs, Natasha had disappeared from the hallway.

She checked every nook and cranny, but her effort was futile.

It was as though she was delusional.

Didn't she check out already? Why is she still here? Could I have made a mistake?

In confusion, the hotel staff paced around the hallway to check again. However, as Natasha was nowhere to be found, she gave up in the end.

Once Natasha was back in her room, she removed her shoes and walked inside barefooted.

She had her phone to her ear, listening attentively to the incoming call while taking a seat in front of her laptop.

“Ms. Watson, I found something related to your father when I made a trip back to base camp! Indeed, heaven helps those who help themselves.”

“Oh? Is that so?”

“Yes, I've forwarded it to your phone. Please take a look. I believe you won't doubt me a bit this time,” Boss proclaimed over the phone.

Then, Natasha's phone buzzed.

Immediately, she brought it down to eye level and clicked on it. Upon seeing what the message was about, she froze.

A flabbergasted look crept up on her face as she straightened her body. Her trembling hands held onto her phone tightly.

Boss had sent her a photo, and it was none other than Theodore.

He looked exactly like how she had remembered him—young and handsome. Dressed in black, he sat in front of the computer, looking regal and classy.

It seemed to be an old photo. Though taken sideways, one could still see Theodore's face vividly.

Day and night, she had been longing to see that familiar face. At that instant, she was washed over by an indescribable feeling as her eyes reddened.

Initially, she had thought her memories of him would fade away as time passed and that she would forget about him in time. However, she realized none of those presumptions were true.

On the contrary, Theodore's face, figure, and everything about him was forever etched on her mind.

Natasha gently brushed the face on the photo with her fingers. Indeed, the man in the photo was her father, whom she could never meet again.

“How is it, Ms. Watson?” Boss suddenly broke the radio silence and snapped Natasha out of her daze.

She was reminded that she was still on the phone.

“I'll call you back,” she muttered before hanging up.

She tried to suppress her emotions, but her quavering voice sold her out.

After ending the call, Natasha continued staring at her father's photo, totally engrossed.

When she was little, she could not understand why he refused to have his photo taken. As she missed him dearly, she persistently persuaded her father to do so. Finally, Theodore obliged, and they took a family photo on her fifth birthday. Unfortunately, a fire occurred, and she lost that precious photo.

Therefore, the one on her phone was the only photo she had of her father.

As she stared at that photo, her face went blank.

She finally had the answers to all the perplexing questions she had back then.
