You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 478

Kenneth said nothing as he continued to walk, a complex look on his face.

Anthony quickly fell into step beside his father, but when he realized the latter didn't seem interested in talking, he decided to break the silence. “Daddy, are you taking this money to have a showdown with Boss?”

Upon hearing that, Kenneth froze for a moment.

I don't want the kids to be involved in this matter, but how on earth do I stop them?

Undeterred by his father's silence, Anthony added, “Has he contacted you again?”

Instead of replying, Kenneth began walking faster, to the point where Anthony struggled to keep up. Left with no choice, the boy ran forward and grabbed his father's arm. “Daddy, haven't we just reached an agreement? Why are you doing this again?”

Kenneth finally stopped in his tracks and lowered his gaze to Anthony. “Do you know what Nat reminded me the most when we met?”

“I do! She told you to protect Benjamin and me!” Anthony replied. Thanks to the microphone, I heard their conversation loud and clear!

“Good that you know.”

“Daddy, we're not saying we want to get involved. As long as you tell us what's happening, we won't cause any trouble. But if you continue the silent treatment, we can only keep guessing and trying until we figure things out ourselves. Who knows what might happen if we go down that route?”

Kenneth gazed at his son.

The kid's not even at my waist, yet he dares stare at me with so much persistence and stubbornness.

“Yes. I'm using this money to have a showdown with Boss.”

“But hasn't Nat already given you all the information about Boss?” Anthony asked.

“If I suddenly take a step back from everything and put on an air of indifference, don't you think it'll only arouse Boss' suspicions even more?”

“Well, that's not wrong...”

“Moreover, what happens if Boss really thinks I've given up on Nat and decides she's no longer useful to him? Do you think he'll let her off easily?”

After pondering for a while, Anthony realized his father's words made a lot of sense. “So, the best plan now is to work together and buy time for Nat, isn't it? Only then can we create opportunities for her.”

Kenneth gazed at Anthony as a smile slowly crept across his face. “That's right.”

Anthony, too, nodded and broke into a smile. “I got it!”

“Now that you know the plan, I don't want you acting recklessly on your own. Do you understand?”

“Yes, Daddy!”

With that, the father and son continued walking away, but this time, Kenneth made sure to slow down for Anthony to keep up with him.

A few seconds later, Anthony's voice rang out again. “I only followed you earlier because I didn't know what you were up to, Daddy. As long as you keep an open line of communication with us, I can assure you we won't do anything reckless.”

“As parents, we only want to protect our children and give them the best.”

Anthony felt his heart skip a beat, and for some inexplicable reason, he was happy to hear those words from his father.

“But Daddy, you know it's just a matter of time before Benjamin and I embark on our training with Darknetz. That's not something we can change. Are you going to keep following us and protecting us?”

Hearing that, Kenneth lowered his head to look at the boy, only to have the latter meet his gaze.

“Instead of protecting us, why don't you teach us something more practical, Daddy? That way, we can deal with new situations and even defend ourselves if the need arises!”

“Is that what you think?”

Anthony nodded excitedly, all wide-eyed and sincere.

After giving it some thought, Kenneth finally nodded. “Okay.”

“Does that mean you've agreed to it?”

“Of course.”

Anthony smiled. “That's more like it, Daddy! If you teach a man to fish, you'll feed him for a lifetime!”
