You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 690

An indeterminate time passed before Spencer slowly loosened his grip on Thalia.

Thalia stared at him with a complex look in her eyes, saying nary a word.

Looking back at her, Spencer gently toyed with her hair. “Thalia, don't leave me again, okay?”

Thalia's eyes were fixed on him, her voice hoarse. “What do you mean by that?”

Pursing his lips, Spencer bore his eyes into her. “You know what? After you left that day, my heart abruptly felt hollow. Never had I been so afraid. Thalia, you've already occupied my heart completely, leaving no room for me to think about anything else.”

As Thalia listened to him, her expression gradually gentled, and delight showed on her face. “Are you serious?”

“When have I ever lied to you?” Spencer asked.

Thalia deliberated for a moment, but she couldn't think of any such instance.

He rejected me in the past and used exceedingly cruel methods, but he had never lied to me.

At that thought, hope shone in her eyes.

Spencer looked down at her, his gaze loving beyond words. “I don't think I'd ever forgive myself if anything were to happen to you out there. Therefore, don't leave anymore, okay? Stay by my side, and let me take care of you!”

Undeniably, his words moved Thalia.

After all, he had never said such a thing to her.

At that very moment, she felt that she would have no regrets even if she were to die then.

With her eyes pinned on him, she admitted hoarsely, “But I don't want you to see me when I'm in the throes of a flare-up. I'd be too unsightly. I want to leave you my most wonderful image. Even if I die, I'd still be that beautiful woman!”

“You're not unsightly, not in the least! No matter how you look, you'll always be the most beautiful to me. Also, trust in me. I'll definitely find a way to cure you. I promise!”

“Really?”

“Yes! If I can't cure you, I'll depart this life with you at the time,” Spencer vowed.

Hearing that, Thalia quickly shot her hand out and clapped it over his mouth.

“I trust you, but I don't want you to say such a thing!” Thalia chided.

Spencer reached out and pulled her hand down, his gaze on her tender. “Stay, won't you?”

A long moment passed before Thalia finally nodded. “Okay.”

At once, a smile bloomed on Spencer's face. In the next second, he reached out and pulled her into his arms.

His grip on her was indescribably tight.

Sensing the force of his hug, Thalia smiled as well.

That's true. Putting aside his medical skills, I'm already content that I can spend my last days on earth with him, even if he can't cure me. In my entire life, I had been abandoned and picked on. For the sake of survival, I did a lot of things, both good and bad. But now that my life is coming to an end, I want to really live for myself for once.

With that thought in mind, she hugged the man back, tears shimmering in her lovely eyes.

Outside, Benjamin and Denise were still waiting for the two adults to finish their discussion.

“Say, the two of them aren't having a row, right?” Benjamin was slightly worried.

On the contrary, Denise alternated between studying her nails and smoothing her hair. Seeing that her brother was fretful, she assured, “No. Don't worry!”

“Why not?” Benjamin questioned.

“It's evident from the expression on Spencer's face when we left the room,” Denise revealed.

However, Benjamin was still puzzled. “What expression was on his face?”

“Well... the expression of hoping to salvage things immediately!” Denise concluded.

“For real?” Benjamin asked with a slight frown, still a touch skeptical.

In response, Denise exclaimed, “Of course! Spencer strode forward and grabbed Thalia. Wasn't that obvious enough?”

While at that, he almost hugged her.

Unfortunately, Benjamin proceeded to put forth an even more ridiculous question. “How is he grabbing her an obvious sign? Aren't you worried that they'd get physical with each other?”

Denise was struck dumb. “That's impossible. Thalia is injured right now. How could Spencer possibly get physical with her?”

“What if Thalia were to make the first move, then?” Benjamin pressed.

“Even so, he wouldn't fight back. He would only dodge!”

“Hence, there's still a possibility of them getting physical, right?” Benjamin insisted.

Denise was utterly speechless.

Argh! How should I explain it to him?

Holding his gaze, she bobbed her head. “Yes. While that possibility exists, it isn't the normal development of things.”

“That's not necessarily true!”

Shooting daggers at him, Denise was so incensed that she nodded. Verily, she wasn't in the mood to continue arguing with him anymore. “Fine. Whatever you say, Ben!”
