You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 868

Seeing Magus' reaction, Anthony was quite certain that Magus knew nothing about this matter.

“What's wrong? Are you surprised?” Anthony asked.

Miguel wanted to say something. His lips moved slightly, yet he couldn't bring himself to ask anything.

Anthony looked at Magus and said, “This guy is a habitual offender, and I believe it's not just you and Diego who have been affected. There must be others. Lindon is a person with no bottom line. No matter what he tells you, it doesn't count, because he's a thorough scoundrel!”

Magus clenched his fists tightly on both sides, his eyes turning a deep shade of crimson red.

Indeed, I despise Lindon and wish I can kill him. However, after the incident occurred, I've always thought that he just couldn't help himself, which was why he did such a thing to Lina...

Who would have thought that this was all done on purpose by him?

The loyalty Magus once had for Lindon instantly became a joke at this moment.

As Thalia watched Magus gradually become angrier, she simply ignored him and lowered her gaze to look at Anthony. “Are you telling the truth?”

Anthony locked eyes with Thalia and said, “Do you think I would joke about something like this? If you all don't believe me, just go and ask around, and you'll find out!”

The phrase “you all” included Magus as well.

It wasn't important whether or not Thalia believed it; what mattered most was that Magus believed it.

Thalia's delicate eyebrows furrowed tightly. “When I went with you to visit Diego, he didn't mention any of this!”

“He didn't say it outright, but I could tell he was holding something back. So, after I left, I did some research!”

Thalia responded, “You found out and didn't tell me?”

“I thought you weren't interested in this!” Anthony exclaimed.

Thalia retorted, “What am I not interested in?”

Anthony was speechless. “Then, I just haven't got the chance to tell you yet.”

Thalia said nothing.

Just as she was about to speak, Anthony quickly changed the subject, his gaze shifting to Magus. He muttered in a low voice, “Magus, if you truly think that we're meddling in your affairs, we can leave right now. Thalia was right when she said that you can't take our kindness for granted. We're under no obligation to help you. Honestly, if it weren't for our admiration for you, we wouldn't have gotten involved in any of this!”

As soon as Anthony finished speaking, Magus' deep gaze fell upon Anthony. His eyes were deep and filled with a certain complex emotion.

Anthony looked at Magus calmly, continuing with his usual approach. “Also, you don't need to pretend to ask for our help while actually having your own plans. If that's the case, there's no point in us staying. If you think you can save Lina, then go ahead. We won't stop you!” As Anthony spoke, his gaze shifted to Thalia, signaling her not to hold Magus back anymore.

There was an unspoken understanding between Anthony and Thalia. Thalia immediately retracted her arm and stepped aside, clearing the path for Magus.

Magus just stood there and didn't go out directly.

Anthony had already made his point clear, and Magus was not someone who couldn't understand.

Moreover, Magus was well aware that if he acted alone, the best outcome would be repeating past mistakes.

However, with Lina's mental strength, she might not be able to bear all of this...

After careful consideration, Magus' gaze fell on Anthony. “So when can we rescue Lina?”

Now, the only thing Magus cared about was this.

Magus' question revealed his decision, and Anthony understood it, too.

Anthony lifted his gaze and looked at Magus with a faint expression. “As I said, the time we save Lina depends on you!”

“I'm ready!” Magus exclaimed and immediately took something out of a bag. It was a hyper-realistic mask, which didn't seem remarkable at first glance.

Anthony was taken aback. “That fast?”

“It's not that fast. I haven't done this in a long time, so I'm a bit rusty!” Magus replied.
