You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 829

As Anthony and Thalia left the prison building, they walked side by side.

“Well? What do you think?” Thalia asked.

“I don't think he was lying,” Anthony surmised.

In response, Thalia dipped her head. “Same here.”

“But while he didn't lie, he was definitely hiding something from us!” Anthony added.

Again, Thalia bobbed her head. “I agree. It was beyond obvious.”

“So, the issue lies on...”

“That boss of his,” Thalia concluded, completing the second half of Anthony's utterance.

Anthony gave a nod of his head. “Yes. In other words, he's the key in this matter!”

Thalia turned her gaze to him. “Don't tell me you're planning to ferret the man out?”

“No, that isn't necessary. Truthfully, I already have my suspicions. But I need verification,” Anthony replied.

“How are you going to verify it?”

Anthony considered it briefly. “Let's wait for a while longer. Perhaps there'll be news very soon.”

“You mean the person who trades in information?” Thalia queried.

Anthony inclined his head a fraction in affirmation.

“You're the only one who trusts him!” Thalia huffed.

“But wasn't he the one who found Magus?” Anthony countered.

Thalia arched a brow, but she did not deny it.

By then, they had exited the prison gates. The instant Miguel spotted them, he scrambled out of the car and rushed up to them.

“How did it go, Master?” Miguel asked.

“We've gotten something at least,” Anthony answered.

“So, what's the verdict?”

“That'll take a bit longer,” Anthony responded.

Upon hearing that, Miguel nodded. “All right, then. Where are we going now?”

Lifting his wrist, Anthony glanced at the time before murmuring, “It's about time.”

Just as Miguel was about to ask for clarification, Anthony continued, “Let's go. We'll head back first.”

Thus, Miguel dipped his head in acquiescence.

Subsequently, they got into the car and geared up to head home.

Mere seconds after they had started the engine, however, Anthony's phone rang.

The moment that happened, everyone in the car cut their gazes over. It was as though they were all aware of the caller's identity.

Taking out his phone, Anthony glanced at the incoming phone number. A barely-perceptible smile tugged at his lips. He swiped his finger over the answer button and picked up the call.

“Hello.”

“I've already collected all information on Magus. When can you come over?” the person on the other end of the phone asked, cutting straight to the chase.

“Give me your location.”

“Let's meet at the usual place.”

“Sure!” After saying that, Anthony promptly hung up.

Right then, everyone in the car was staring at him.

“Why are you all looking at me?” A frown marred Anthony's countenance.

“Are you psychic, Master?” Miguel exclaimed.

Why does it feel as though he knows everything?

“From the moment I laid eyes on him at the marketplace and mentioned Magus' name, I was aware that he undoubtedly knows everything,” Anthony divulged nonchalantly.

“If so, why did he ask you for a day or two?” Miguel screeched.

Thalia pinned her eyes on him, regarding him as though he was a fool. “How could he show that he'd been working hard otherwise? And would he have the nerve to take the money?”

At that, Miguel was momentarily stunned. He then lamented, “How foolish of me!” Having said that, he withdrew his gaze and started driving.

Thalia snorted a bark of laughter. “Those around Dave are just slow-witted!”
