You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 770

Natasha's eyelashes fluttered a moment before she replied without looking up, “No.”

As he stared at her, a solemn look descended upon Kenneth's face. He then got up to leave without another word.

In response, Natasha grabbed his sleeve. “Kenneth.”

When the latter turned around, his expression couldn't be any frostier.

Natasha hesitated for a moment before finally admitting, “Yes, I did see him.”

As Kenneth stared at her, his eyes looked like a bottomless abyss, sending a chill down the spine of anyone who peered into them.

Natasha took a deep breath. “Kenneth, the cure isn't the only one out there.”

The moment he heard those words, Kenneth immediately knew the conclusion to their discussion.

Just as he turned to leave, Natasha threw herself forward to hug him from behind.

“Listen to me, Kenneth.” Natasha clung tightly to his back.

Kenneth's body trembled slightly as his fists clenched by his sides. His deep voice, tinged with suppressed emotion, rang out. “I'm not surprised by the choice that you made, but don't you think you're being too cruel to me, Nat?”

“I know,” Natasha murmured from behind him. “You're not the only one. I'm also being cruel to the children and Grandpa.”

“In that case, why can't you be a little more selfish?” Kenneth asked.

At that moment, Natasha released her grip and circled to his front. As she raised her gaze to look at him, it was clear that she was trying hard to stay strong. “Kenneth, you know, better than anyone else, that I'm not the kind that likes to sacrifice myself for others. In fact, I'm someone who will do anything to protect myself...”

“Then?” Kenneth stared intently at her, for he knew that there was no changing her mind.

“But I don't like to be in the debt of others,” she added.

“Is that the decision you wanted to tell me about?” Kenneth questioned.

“Thalia came here and got poisoned because of me. On top of that, she helped me in the hospital and protected the children time and again. After all that she has done, there's no way I can make the selfish choice,” Natasha explained.

“Nat, when it comes to your life, it's all right to be a little selfish.”

“If Dave was in Thalia's position, what would you have done?” Natasha retorted.

Kenneth was stunned by the sudden question.

“Look, you would have made the same choice as I did,” Natasha added.

“It's different—”

“No, it's not,” Natasha interrupted him.

“Dave and I have faced death countless times. Either one of us would have readily sacrificed ourselves for the other.”

“Are you saying that only your friend is considered true while mine isn't?” Natasha countered.

“How are you even friends with Thalia?” Kenneth snapped.

“How are we not?” Natasha threw the question back at him.

“Nat...”

“Thalia and I have known each other for three years now. Even though she doesn't know my identity, I have always known hers.”

“Nat...”
