You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 494

Kenneth was already on a phone call when Anthony and Benjamin arrived.

The mockery was obvious in Kenneth's voice when he said, “And here I thought you had hidden away with no intention of showing yourself ever again.”

Boss' voice rang out from the other end of the line. “Kenneth, you're the one behind this, aren't you?”

“I wish it'd been me, but sadly, this is not a credit I can claim.” Kenneth continued, “Anyway, I'm sure you're aware of how many people you've offended now, don't you? I advise you to stay hidden; otherwise, you might end up getting gunned down.”

Boss chuckled coldly at that. “Is that so? Well, I'm looking forward to it then.”

Kenneth clenched his teeth and gritted out, “Give me the time and location!”

“I'll send you the location, but I want ten times the money this time!”

Kenneth narrowed his eyes. “Ten times? Aren't you afraid of stuffing yourself to the point of exploding?”

“Whether I'll explode or not is my business, so I won't bother you with it. That being said, if I see there's a dime less, I won't be able to guarantee that she won't get injured.”

Narrowing his eyes, Kenneth snapped, “Don't you dare!”

Boss sniggered. “You'll find out soon enough whether I have the guts to do so or not.”

Kenneth uttered, “I need more time.”

“I'll give you a day.”

Kenneth instantly agreed, “Okay.”

“Kenneth, you'd better not be playing any tricks, you hear?” Boss threatened.

Kenneth said, “Don't worry. If money's all it takes to solve this problem, I won't do anything to jeopardize it. But if I don't see her, I'll make sure you won't get even a dime out of me.”

“That's settled then. I'll send you the address later.” With that, Boss ended the call.

Seeing this, Anthony walked over. “Daddy...”

Kenneth looked at him. “I'm afraid we're bringing forward the plan. By the way, did you receive any other message from Nat?”

Anthony shook his head.

“We can't wait any longer. We need to move the plan forward.” After saying that, Kenneth turned to look at Dave. “Dave, we need to scrap the original plan. I have an idea. Later, when I'm making the trade with him, you'll commence an operation so that Vermillion Base will focus the majority of their forces on another place. This will give us the chance to retreat.”

“I guess that's another way to go at it.” Dave nodded. “All right, we'll go with your plan.”

Anthony asked, “What about us?”

Kenneth looked at him. “I need you to try and contact Nat. Tell her we can't wait any longer, and that I'm getting ready to bring her back.”

Benjamin cut in, “Daddy, when the time comes, I'm going with you!”

Hearing that, Anthony chimed in, “Me too!”

Kenneth gazed at the kids and said, “Anthony, Benjamin, didn't we agree that you guys will stay here? Just do as I say, okay?”

Benjamin frowned. “But, Daddy...”

Kenneth added, “If you guys tag along, I'll have to worry about you too. When that happens, I won't be able to give all my attention to saving Nat. So, I need you guys to stay and help from here. Be prepared to receive us at any time. Once I return with Nat, we'll need to evacuate from here at any moment.”

Although Anthony and Benjamin were extremely reluctant to accept that, they knew the gravity of the situation. As such, they could only nod their heads. “Okay.”

Looking at them, Kenneth reached out to tousle their hair. “Don't worry. I’ll definitely bring Nat back to you.”

With grim expressions on their faces, the two kids nodded.

Meanwhile, Natasha spent a day and a night in one of Vermillion Base's rooms.

The corners of Natasha's lips curled up, and she looked inside the room without an ounce of fear in her eyes. She then proceeded to walk inside.

It was already late at night. Despite that, Will was still fully dressed, looking as if he had just finished dealing with something.

The first thing that Natasha saw when she walked into the room was Will sitting on his chair with a stern look on his face.

Will looked at her and smiled. “So, what do you want to say to me?”

Natasha cut straight to the point. “How did my father die?”

Will replied, “Lady, I only agreed to meet with you because you said you had something to tell me. If all you wanted is to ask me this, I no longer have any reason to see you.”

“Boss told me that my father had an important document with him.”

Will was stunned to hear that. “Boss told you that?”

Natasha nodded.

Chuckling, Will replied, “Well, what Boss said was true. But it's been so long now. The document that your father had is no longer important.”

Natasha stared at him. “So, my father's death has something to do with the document?”

Will did not deny it. “Yes. When he left back then, he took some of Vermillion Base's confidential information with him. There's no way Vermillion Base would tolerate such an action. That's why I said you were an exception. If your existence had been known then, you wouldn't have lived either. So, lady, you should cherish the chance you were given, and you shouldn't have shown up here.”

Natasha was becoming more and more agitated. She clenched her fists and said, “Even if my father didn't take away Vermilion Base's confidential information, I doubt he'd be able to stay alive for long. In fact, it's because he had the information with him that you guys let him leave, only to kill him off later. Am I right?”

Hearing that, Will was surprised for a moment before he turned his head to look at her. “You're a smart woman, aren't you? Indeed, it's as you said.”

Clenching her fists even tighter, Natasha asked, “But why?”

Will explained, “Every person who serves Vermillion Base should only die in battle. They can never choose to become a deserter. This is the consequence every deserter faces—no more, no less.”
