You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 801

Mike's hopes for a reward from Kenneth did not materialize, as the latter appeared to have changed topics entirely.

Dave did not seem inclined to comment on Mike's actions either and replied to Kenneth seriously, “So we'll follow the plan?”

“Yes.” Kenneth nodded in affirmation.

“I'll get some men on it right away,” replied Dave.

Kenneth added, “Great. If you need help with anything, just say the word.”

Their conversation prompted Natasha to offer, “I can help too.”

Dave turned around and shot her a smile. “Don't worry. I won't stand on ceremony around all of you if I need anything.” He stood up and continued, “Well, I'll get busy then. See you soon.”

Kenneth nodded in acknowledgment, and Dave left.

Throughout this exchange, Mike dutifully stood to the side. Isn't it time to discuss the car now that the serious business is over?

He eagerly rushed forward and gazed expectantly at Kenneth.

Alas, Kenneth continued to ignore him and turned to Natasha instead. “Shall we go home, Nat?”

Natasha replied to his question with one of her own. “But what if Dave needs help?”

After some thought, Kenneth replied to Natasha, “Let me send you home first. I'll come back afterward.”

“That sounds troublesome. Why don't you bring me sightseeing nearby?”

He nodded a moment later. “Sure. Let's go.”

She stood up just as Kenneth reached out to hold her hand.

Poor Mike continued to be ignored during the lovers' interaction. He planned to step aside and let Kenneth pass, but his body acted of its own accord, blocking Kenneth's path instead.

Kenneth cocked his brow and stared at Mike, questioning, “There's nothing else for you here. Why are you still hanging around?”

“I...” Mike trailed off hesitantly. I can't just come right out and ask for a car, right?

He stewed in his thoughts and eventually eked out, “Didn't you ask me to come here, Kenneth? You still haven't told me why you summoned me here.”

His words caused Kenneth to frown momentarily before saying, “Ah, there's nothing else. You've done all of us a great service; everything else can be overlooked.”

Mike cleared his throat at the mention of his “great service.” He replied, “Don't mention it, Kenneth. You've always been so kind to me. We needn't call it a great service or anything. And forget about Dave's suggestion to give me a car. I'm happy and honored to lend you a helping hand!”

A sly look flashed through Kenneth's gaze as he studied Mike. “Sure, I got it.” Kenneth clapped him on the shoulder and added, “Get to work, then. I'm bringing Nat sightseeing.” Then, he left without giving Mike a chance to reply.

Mike was stumped.

T-That's it?

He knitted his brows and stared after Kenneth's back. “Kenneth, why don't I bring the two of you sightseeing?”

Sadly, Kenneth did not even turn around to gratify him with a response.

When Mike was all alone in the office, he frowned in confusion.

That's weird! I couldn't be any more obvious with my hints. Plus, Kenneth has always been a generous man. What's up with his earlier behavior? Or wait! Maybe I shouldn't have beat around the bush?

Mike smacked his mouth in rebuke.

Urgh, to h*ll with social niceties!

Meanwhile, Alexia looked on as Kenneth led Natasha out of the office. She did not make an extra effort to avoid them, but she would not step forward to greet them either.

She had promised she would not ruin their relationship, so all she could do was observe them from the sidelines.

When the couple eventually walked past her, Kenneth kept his gaze forward, pretending not to see her. Natasha was the opposite. Upon spotting Alexia, Natasha stared intently at her, showing no hint of fear.
