You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 936

Thalia was still baffled, but after seeing Anthony's serious expression, she quickly followed him.

As the boy led the way, Thalia trailed a meter behind and scrutinized him. After a while, she finally spoke up. “A-Are you not angry with me anymore?”

“What's there to be angry about?” Anthony replied without turning his head, seemingly having anticipated the question.

Thalia lowered her gaze and murmured, “Why do you still ask when you already know...”

Anthony suddenly halted and turned to look at Thalia, prompting the latter to freeze from guilt and begrudgingly meet his gaze.

“Thalia, you really don't need to worry too much about my thoughts and opinions,” Anthony said with a weary sigh.

Upon hearing that, Thalia furrowed her brows. “What do you mean? Are you planning to sever ties with me?”

“What I meant to say is that the fault of this matter doesn't lie with you, so you don't have to tiptoe around me.”

Thalia narrowed her eyes as she stared at the boy suspiciously, “Are you sure?”

Anthony nodded.

“In that case, why did you ignore me when I talked to you yesterday?”

With that, Anthony lowered his eyes and heaved a heavy sigh, “I didn't say anything because I couldn't accept the truth then. The one I'm angry at is myself. Both of you are very important to me, and I can't bear to see anything bad happen to either of you,” he explained before looking up at Thalia. “Do you understand?”

Thalia, who had been grappling with conflicting emotions, was stunned by Anthony's words.

She gazed at the boy and found her unhappiness slowly dissipating, only to be replaced by a sense of relief.

“A-Am I that important? Can I really be compared to Nat?” Thalia muttered.

Anthony looked at the woman incredulously. Oh, gosh... Even at this moment, is that all she's concerned about?

“What do you think?” he grumbled, his eyes sweeping over her impatiently.

“How would I know?” Thalia retorted.

“Forget it if you don't know!” Anthony said before turning around and walking away. After all, continuing that conversation would only make the situation even more awkward.

Thalia immediately followed behind and caught up to the boy in two strides. The next second, she casually wrapped an arm around his shoulder and acted like they were best buddies. “Oh, come on. Tell me about it!”

True to her nature, Thalia could light up the room with just a little sunshine.

Anthony, on the other hand, actually felt pretty guilty. He knew the incident wasn't what Thalia had intended, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't control himself that day.

However, now that he realized Thalia wasn't dwelling on it, he started to wonder if he was the one being too short-sighted.

“Let me go!” he grumbled.

“I'll let you go if you say it!”

“What do you want me to say?”

“I want you to say what was on your mind earlier! Tell me. Are Nat and I equally important to you?” Thalia asked. One thing was for sure—that one question was enough to make her day.

Alas, Anthony continued to struggle. “Let me go!”

“If you don't speak up, I won't let you go!” Thalia retorted as she put the boy in a headlock.

“You—”

“What? What about me?” Thalia interrupted. “Listen up. If you don't tell me what I want to know, I'll hound you until you do!”

For a moment, Anthony was speechless. “Come on... Haven't you heard that you can lead a horse to water but can't make it drink?”

“Who cares? What matters is that I've led the horse to water, so it'd better drink up!”
