You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 616

Both Anthony and Benjamin had their gazes pinned on Thalia, looking extremely unhappy.

“Come on. Re-enact it. I'll take just one look,” she urged.

“Please have some self-respect, ma'am!” As Anthony spoke, he flashed her a grim smile.

“I'm already lying here in this pathetic state. Can't you grant me this humble wish of mine?”

“In that case, have the one who got dust in his eyes re-enact it for you.” Anthony turned to look at his brother, who was rendered speechless by his remarks.

Thalia's gaze lingered between the brothers for a while. Finally, she looked at Anthony and said, “I want you to do it.”

Upon hearing that, Benjamin instantly perked up and cast a mocking glance at Anthony.

However, Anthony was not about to make a fool out of himself and flatly refused her request. “Goodbye.”

He then spun on his heels and strode away.

“Anthony Watson!” Thalia called out to him. “If you leave now, don't blame me for using my ultimate technique on you once I'm fully recovered!”

As such, Anthony abruptly stopped in his tracks, standing as still as a statue.

Never did he expect that he would be tamed in that way—someone threatening to tickle him.

Clenching his fists, he swore to get rid of his weakness one day.

Anthony turned around, his gaze landing on Thalia, who was also looking at him.

The boy was zealous and thin-skinned, so she knew better than to go over the line with her jokes. “Fine. Since you're so petty, just forget about it, then!”

Those words won her a glare from Anthony.

Thalia then shifted her gaze toward Denise and beckoned the little girl to place her ear close to her.

“When I'm fully recovered, let's hold Anthony down and teach him a lesson.”

Although it was a secret, Thalia's voice was not any softer than usual, so everyone heard her perfectly fine.

Denise nodded immediately upon hearing that. “I approve of that!”

“Why don't you two go ahead and use a loudspeaker, huh?” Anthony asked, his voice laced with sarcasm.

“What can you do about it?” Thalia retorted.

Denise, too, glanced over at her brothers. Backing Thalia up, she exclaimed, “That's right!”

“It sure is hard to deal with women and small-minded people—” Anthony instantly held his tongue when he felt Natasha's eyes on him. He paused for a moment and smiled as he clarified, “Nat is an exception, of course.”

Seeing how afraid he looked at the moment brought a hint of disdain to Thalia's and Denise's eyes.

Meanwhile, Natasha observed their silly antics on the side, smiling but never chiming in.

Thalia got along well with the children, and although she did not say it out loud, Natasha knew that she would never allow the children to suffer any grievances.

At the thought of that, Natasha's mind was finally eased.

There were no signs of sadness in her eyes as she watched the four of them while smiling. In them, instead, was serenity.

It was not that Natasha was unafraid of death. In fact, it was very much the opposite. However, because of her beloved family, she was determined to become stronger.

She continued gazing at the people dear to her heart, her fair skin sheening under the light.

Meanwhile, Dave was driving the car, occasionally taking a glance at the silent Kenneth. He pondered for a moment before asking the latter, “Are you still worried?”

Kenneth lifted his eyes. “Yeah.”

“Indeed, the matter progressed beyond our expectations, but it's not unsolvable.”

“I know.” Kenneth nodded.

“Let Spencer handle it. Have some faith in him. He'll definitely be able to do it.”

“We still need to take precautionary measures.”

Naturally, Dave knew what Kenneth was talking about. Looking at the latter, he voiced, “Yeah, it's always good to plan ahead. However, Boss won't fall for our tricks so easily this time. I'm afraid it'll be extremely difficult to find him.”

His remark earned him a glance from Kenneth, who said, “We can't find him, but we can lure him right to our doorstep.”
