You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 6

When Thea returned to the car, Kenneth was scrolling through his phone. He glanced at her. “Have you found it?”

“Yeah, I dropped it on the way here.” She took out a pen and waved it in front of him.

Kenneth replied nonchalantly, “It's just a pen. If you lose it, just forget it.”

“It's a birthday present from you two years ago! It's very meaningful to me, so I can't bear to lose it.” With that, Thea put it away carefully.

Kenneth continued scrolling through the documents on his phone. Thea glanced at him and remarked, “Sally looks quite pretty. She's quite charismatic too.”

He was stunned for a while. Without raising his head, he replied calmly, “Sure.”

“She's your type, right?” asked Thea. She pretended to be asking it casually, but it was actually a careful test.

Kenneth looked at her, his gaze

unfathomable. “What are you trying to say?

Thea smiled. “Nothing. I just think that she's pretty.”

“There are a lot of pretty girls out there, but it's rare to find one with an interesting soul,” he replied.

“But even her beauty is rare,” said Thea. In fact, she was even jealous of how pretty that woman was.

Kenneth continued looking at his phone quietly.

Even though Thea had been with him for so long, she still could not read his mind. She averted her gaze and looked at the driver. “Start the car.”

Kenneth suddenly woke up in the middle of his dream.

In his dream, Natasha and two children were covered in blood. They waved as they moved further and further away from him...

When Kenneth sat up, his forehead was already covered in sweat.

He got out of bed and walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows. The bright moon hung amongst the clouds, while stars dotted the night sky. He lit a cigarette.

Even though six years had passed, the incident still bugged him.

After he had divorced Natasha then, the housekeeper found an ultrasound image that showed that she was pregnant. By the time he returned to his senses, she had already disappeared from his life. To be exact, he could not locate her whereabouts at all. It was like she had disappeared into thin air.

He picked up his phone in frustration and called his assistant. “Investigate a woman named Sally from Prosper Technologies,” he instructed.

“Right now?” The assistant had just woken up from his sleep and was still groggy.

Kenneth fell silent for a while. “Forget it. Never mind.” He hung up the call after that.

He knew that his dream had something to do with the woman he saw earlier in the day.

However, he was certain that she was not the same woman.

He did not regret the marriage. He merely felt bad for the two children.

If he had found out earlier, the marriage might not have ended so quickly. At the very least, he would not let her take the children away.

After finishing a cigarette, Kenneth returned to his room and got back to bed.

Some things were bound to leave regrets.

Prosper Technologies had been waiting for Hamilton Corporation's response.

However, they had not received any updates after so long. Unable to bear with it anymore, Xavier looked for Mark.

“Xavier, I know that this project is extremely important to you, but we can't control Hamilton Corporation's decision,” said Mark. When he did not receive any responses, he already understood what that

meant.

“Mark, is there a problem with our proposal? What is it? I want to know!” demanded Xavier.

Mark sighed. “I heard that your proposal is one of the better ones, but Thea vetoed it. They didn't say why.”

Xavier narrowed his eyes. “It's got something to do with Natasha?”

Mark did not know what to say. He merely wanted Natasha to learn from the meeting, but he did not expect Thea to target her. Hence, he could not say for sure whether Natasha had something to do with it.
