You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 823

A person who had been hurt by betrayal would not believe such statements.

That was exactly the kind of person Magus was.

He flashed Thalia a sneer as he said, “If you know me, then you should know that I would never join any organization for the rest of my life.”

“Please, believe me, Magus! In the name of my integrity, I promise that I won't lie to you!” Thalia pleaded earnestly.

“Integrity?” Magus let out a sarcastic chuckle as he continued, “To be honest, the people from before were much more sincere. What good is your integrity, huh?”

“Magus...”

He cut her off, “That's enough! I will not join you guys no matter what you say, so either kill me or release me!”

Thalia frowned and simply stared at him in silence.

“You can go,” Anthony said all of a sudden.

Thalia turned to look at him, a hint of shock manifesting in her eyes. “Anthony?”

Anthony kept his gaze fixated on Magus as he continued, “As I said, I'm here to invite you, not force you. You have the right to make your own choice.”

Hearing this, Magus simply turned around and left without saying another word.

Right as he brushed past Anthony at the door, Anthony called out to him, “Wait!”

Magus paused in his tracks and spun on his heel to look at the young boy. “What's the matter? Are you regretting your decision now?”

Anthony whipped out a pen and paper from his bag and wrote down a phone number. “This is my number. Feel free to call me if you ever change your mind.”

Magus shot the string of numbers the boy had written a cold glare. “That won't be necessary!” he declared, then walked right out of there without looking back.

Miguel was about to run after the man, but Anthony stopped him and shook his head.

“Are we really just going to let him leave, Master?” Miguel asked.

“It's normal if he can't accept it just yet. Forcing him will only worsen the situation,” Anthony replied.

“But—”

“I know what I'm doing!” Anthony cut him off.

Miguel pursed his lips and kept quiet after that.

Realizing that no one was trying to stop him, Magus turned around, glared at the person who locked him in there, and sneered, “You remember this!”

Of course, that guy did not take Magus' threat seriously. “It's not every day someone wants you, you know? You should leave. Get as far away as you can!”

“That's none of your business!” Magus retorted and stormed off.

“Are we really going to let him go like that, Anthony?” Denise asked, a hint of anxiety lacing her words. “It will be a lot harder to find him later on!”

Anthony waited until Magus was gone before replying, “He won't hide from us if we don't force him.”

“But he won't agree to our request either!” Denise exclaimed.

The person who helped Anthony find Magus was still there by the time Anthony stepped out the door.

Seeing the young boy, the person asked with a smile, “Well? Do you need my help with anything else?”

“That depends. What else are you able to do for me?” Anthony replied, tossing a nonchalant gaze at him.

“You name it, and I'll get it done!”

Anthony deliberately put on a clueless expression as he said, “But I don't know what I need help with!”

“You just want him, right?” the person asked after giving it some thought.
