You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 56

Natasha was rubbing her temples while she sat in her seat.

Just then, Mark appeared next to her. “Na-Ms. Watson. I have some things to discuss with you.”

She glanced at Mark before getting to her feet to follow him.

She had been busy for the entire day with everything that had been happening.

Mark walked inside his office and looked at Natasha. He began by sincerely apologizing to her. “Ms. Watson-”

“Just call me Nat. I'm more used to it,” Natasha interjected.

Mark gave her an awkward look. He laughed and continued, “Sure. So I'll call you Nat. It was my misarrangement that caused the mishap that day, Nat. I was unaware that the other party had abruptly changed the person in charge. I should have warned you about Gaston, but I didn't. Thank you so much for being able to put the past behind you and speak for me in front of Mr. Hamilton.”

Natasha merely looked at Mark as he solemnly apologized. “Are you done?” she asked.

Mark, on the other hand, was taken aback by Natasha's frankness.

“I'll be going back first if there's nothing else,” Natasha said. The events of the day were forcing her skull to split in half; she hadn't even considered how she would deal with the car.

Mark stared at her retreating figure. “D-Don't you have anything to say?”

Yet, before he could even continue, Natasha had left the office.

Mark was rendered speechless.

He had poured in his heart and soul to apologize to Natasha. Yet, the latter did not care about his sincere apology at all.

She was behaving as coolly as she usually would.

Mark, however, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Natasha acting as usual. Initially, he was concerned that she would quit due to the incident, but it seemed unlikely that she would!

He then inhaled deeply at the thought of that before he continued to think of ways to ride on her coattail.

Meanwhile, Natasha had been sitting on a chair for a while, lost in her thoughts. Finally, she decided to text Kenneth.

She texted him: You have two choices.

Either you drive the car away, or I pay you the money for it.

Soon, she received a reply from Kenneth: Won't it seem like I had forced you to buy the car if I took your money?

She then replied: So you choose to drive the car away then?

Kenneth made it clear that the car had nothing to do with him as he replied: I'm not the one who bought the car. The money spent isn't mine. Return it to Grandpa if you want to.

Natasha was rendered speechless.

She would not have been wasting her time with Kenneth if she could simply return the car or money to Liam.

After some thought, she concluded that no matter whether Liam accepted it or not, the two solutions she suggested earlier seemed to be the only solutions.

She did not reply to Kenneth's message. Instead, she turned on her laptop and carried out some procedures. After a few minutes, she sent Kenneth another text: I've transferred the money to you. Please check your account.

With that, she pocketed her phone.

In Natasha's defense, she was not trying to be melodramatic. However, the truth was that during her divorce from Kenneth, she did not ask for anything from him. Mostly because she did not want him to use his compensation as an excuse to get close to the children when he found out about them.

And it was the same situation at that moment.

When it was time for her to get off work, Natasha saw the car parked by the entrance.

In all seriousness, the choice of car was rather... eye-catching.

It was the shade of bright red - only someone with Kenneth's personality would choose such a color.

Although she did not really like the car, she could only accept it as it was.

She caught the eyes of many during her drive back home.

Natasha could feel many heads turn around to stare at her. And through their stares, she could feel their admiration for her wealth.

However, she was used to keeping a low profile. Thus, she was not quite used to driving such an expensive and luxurious car.

On top of that, the reason why she refused to purchase cars for that many years was not a lack of money. Instead, it was because she liked sleeping during car rides. Yet, that was now ruined for her as she had to drive!

With that thought, Natasha could not help but internally curse Kenneth and his family.

Denise was dumbfounded by Natasha’s words and took a few moments before replying, “Thanks, Nat.”

Meanwhile, Anthony was the only one who seemed to be composed. After walking around the car to inspect it, he asked, “How much was it, Nat?”

“Um, around ten million I think?” Natasha replied.

“Around?” Anthony inquired.

To be frank, Natasha did not know how much the car cost. She had only checked its market price. However, she had long forgotten about it by then.

“I've forgotten the detailed price!” Natasha replied.

The clueless behavior indeed screamed Natasha.

Anthony only nodded nonchalantly. “This amount is enough to cover our family expenses for quite a while.”

Natasha was at a loss of words.

It was as if Anthony was indirectly poking at how wasteful she was.

Meanwhile, Terence had also walked up and looked at Natasha. “Why did you buy such an expensive car out of a sudden, Nat?”

Natasha was aware that explaining it to Terence would not be simple. She didn't say much as the money had already been spent. She chuckled as she explained, “I just felt the want to spoil myself after working so hard for so long.”

Terence was still looking straight at her. “But isn't this a bit much?”

After some thought, Natasha replied, “At most, we'll just have to live more frugally in the future.”

“Nat,” Terrence uttered.

“Don't worry, Grandpa. I'm still helping a group of overseas friends to do some programming. They're quite generous with their pay. You won't have to worry about the money - we have more than sufficient,” Natasha reassured. “And the money is obtained through legal means. Don't worry.

Terence could not retort after hearing Natasha's repeated reassurance.

“Grandpa, buying a car won't affect me.” With that, she ignored everything else as she turned to look at the triplets, who were having a blast in the car. “I'm leaving this to you, Grandpa. I'll be heading in first.”

With that, she handed over the car key to Terence and immediately made a beeline upstairs.
