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

Chapter 81

Before Denise could dash out the door, she heard Anthony's answer.

Her big and bright eyes stared dazedly at Anthony. “Tony, is what you said true?”

Anthony remained silent.

Benjamin turned around and looked at her. “Do you think he'll joke with us about this?”

Denise was dumbstruck. Then, hints of a smile appeared on her face before she said, “This means Mr. Handsome is our daddy, right?”

Happiness was evident in her tone.

Even though he didn't want to accept the truth, Anthony nodded at her question.

The corners of Denise's lips curled slightly upward.

Benjamin heaved a sigh of relief. “I bet you're happy all right. Smile if you want to.

No one's stopping you, though.”

“I'm not,” Denise retorted.

Then, Benjamin dramatically heaved yet another sigh of relief before saying, “Looks like we're not illegitimate children! I knew it! Based on my classy looks, I must be a true-born scion of a wealthy family.”

Anthony and Denise were stunned speechless at his theatrics.

At last, Anthony couldn't stand their smugness and said, “Okay, that's enough. Let's go to the hospital.”

At that precise moment, Anthony's phone made a series of beeps.

Whipping out his phone, he saw it was Thalia's message.

Anthony frowned.

“What's wrong?” Benjamin asked in concern.

“I think I can't join you two at the hospital,” Anthony replied.

“Why?”

“Thalia has arrived. She's the witness to Nat's accident. So, I need to get to the bottom of this.”

He knew that that wasn't a normal accident. It was a premeditated murder attempt on Natasha's life.

Anthony would never let someone who wanted Natasha dead go scot-free. Hence, he needed to track down the perpetrator if he ever wanted to have peace of mind in the future.

Benjamin's brows creased. “Do you need me to come with you?”

“It's okay. I can go on my own. You should visit Nat with Denise and Gramps,” George said.

“Won't you be exposed?” Benjamin asked.

Anthony contemplated for a while before answering. “Sooner or later, I will be exposed anyway.”

Benjamin didn't keep at it and nodded. “Okay. Call me immediately if anything crops up.

Anthony nodded in affirmation. After that, he went to change his clothes.

“Will Tony be fine?” Denise asked worryingly.

“Relax. I think the other party would have never thought Anthony would be a child. If he's in danger, he can escape anytime,” Benjamin answered.

Denise nodded upon hearing his explanation.

At that moment, Anthony had finished changing his clothes and left the house.

After he left, Denise and Benjamin looked for Terence.

At that time, Terence was about to sleep. However, he got the fright of his life after hearing what Denise and Benjamin said. In fact, he was so shocked that his legs went weak. Nevertheless, he steadied himself after getting to know Natasha was in a stable condition. Then, Terence took the duo out.

Before he stepped outside the door, Terence remembered something. “Where's

Anthony?”

“Oh, he went there first.”

Terence accepted her answer at face value before he took them both and left.

Throughout the entire journey, Terence was very anxious.

Benjamin comforted his grandfather.

“Gramps, Mommy will be fine. She's not in any danger. Don't worry.”

Terence forced out a smile. “I know. I'm okay.” However, it was apparent he was still worried about her.

Denise and Benjamin exchanged a glance without saying anything.

In no time, they had arrived at the hospital half an hour later.

The hospital was relatively quiet at night.

But Terence panicked as he dashed haphazardly all over the hospital.

At this moment, Kenneth appeared in front of them.

“Old Mr. Watson.”

Terence was surprised at meeting Kenneth. Immediately, the former subconsciously believed that Natasha's accident had to do with the latter.

“Why are you here?” Terence questioned in suspicion.

“I am waiting for all of you,” Kenneth answered.

Right then, Terence dashed forward. “Did you have anything to do with Nat's accident? Kenneth Hamilton, let me tell you, if anything happens to Nat, I'll never let you off! Mark my words! Haven't you hurt her deeply enough in the past? Why can't you just let her go?”

Seeing that Denise and Benjamin rushed forward to stop their grandfather.

“Gramps, Gramps! This mister had nothing to do with Nat's accident!” Denise said.

“If he had nothing to do with it, why is he here?” Terence questioned.

But then, as he looked at his grandchildren, a thought suddenly struck him. Oh no, Kenneth has seen the two! They're exposed! The next second, Terence grabbed both of them and shielded them behind his back.

Then, Terence anxiously looked at Denise and Benjamin. “You two, wait for me in the car. Go on! Do not leave the car before I give the order.”

Despite that, Denise and Benjamin made no move to leave.

“Get going!” Terence urged them.

However, Terence's fidgety behavior only made Kenneth confirm his suspicions.

After thinking for a moment, he said, “Old Mr. Watson, you don't have to hide them from me. We've talked on the phone before.”

Terence was shocked, but he did not believe Kenneth. So, the former looked at the two children with a gaze that seemed to ask for their confirmation.

Denise and Benjamin nodded.

At that instant, Terence didn't know what to

say.

Everything had happened in a flash. It was too sudden and unexpected. To that moment, Terrence was still in a daze.

Despite that, as a senior person, he had to hold the fort. Hence, he turned around and looked at Kenneth. “They are the children of the Watson family, and they had nothing to do with you.”

Still, Kenneth stood there, looking neither haughty nor humble. In fact, one couldn't even guess what he was thinking with that expressionless face.

When he saw that Kenneth had gone silent, Terence shot the latter a question. “Where is Nat?”

“I'll take you there. Let's go,” Kenneth said and glanced reflexively at Denise and Benjamin. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

His gaze this time felt different from how he did it in the past.

Previously, he looked at Denise as if she was someone else's child, but there were a lot of inexplicable emotions swirling in his eyes at that moment.

Moreover, he saw Benjamin, another one of the twins he thought he had lost forever.

Suppressing the urge to rush over, talk with, and hug them, he swiftly turned away and led Terence inside.

In the ward, Natasha had already been pushed out of the emergency room and was now lying on the hospital bed. Many parts of her body were bandaged.

Moreover, there were only a few minor scratches on her face, but fortunately, they were nothing serious.

Looking at her condition, Terence felt his heart lurch. “Nat? Nat! What happened to you? Why are you injured this badly?”

Standing at the side, Kenneth said, “She has just got out from the operating room and is still under anesthesia. The doctor said all these are minor wounds, so you have nothing to worry about. She also had some light fractures, but all these are manageable. She only needs to recuperate for a while, and she'll be fine.”

As he listened to Kenneth's report, Terence

quickly asked, “What happened to her?”

Kenneth didn't know how to explain it to him as he hadn't investigated the case thoroughly yet. In order not to worry Terence, Kenneth only said, “She had an accident.”

Terence was stunned by his answer.

However, since it was an accident, this meant that no one was to blame. Then, the older man turned his head to look at Natasha, pain evident in his gaze.

“Nat is the only living family member I have. I have tried my best to protect her, but I kept failing... Sometimes I feel as if God is purposely working against me every time,” Terence lamented with sorrow.

Kenneth stood silently at the side as he didn't quite know what to say.
