You're Out Daddy

After giving it some thought, Anthony was worried about his own life.

He thought about a problem just when he was about to sleep.

Quickly, he stood up and switched on his computer.

Hacking into the hospital’s surveillance system, he managed to identify the video footage of Kenneth

fighting with Thalia by the corridor.

Initially, he wanted to delete it, but due to his curiosity, he hit the play button.

While he was not a professional, he could tell from their moves that they were professionally trained.

Doubts manifested in Anthony’s mind.

Who is he? He’s only the owner of a company. Why does someone want to take his life?

Anthony however couldn’t figure it out despite his valiant efforts.

Further, he failed to pick up on the fact that Kenneth gave in to Thalia’s beauty.

Once the video stopped playing, Anthony immediately deleted the video footage. Then, he heaved a

sigh of relief and went back to sleep.

Meanwhile, in a dark room.

A tall, sturdy figure was reading the news on a computer.

It was the footage of Natasha’s car accident. Though the accident was tragic and fatal, the news

reported that Natasha survived with some injuries.

He balled his fist tightly.

How did she escape death?

Why?

Why?

The next second, his fingers danced across the keyboard, and he started searching for the hospital to

which Natasha got admitted.

Nevertheless, it was not reported on the news, and he could not find out about anything.

Just as he wanted to slam his desktop, he saw a picture that showed the number plate of the

ambulance clearly.

He squinted his eyes in an attempt to decipher the letters.

Then, a sneer grew on his face.

This time, he was determined to kill her.

And he would do it himself!

The next day, Kenneth’s phone rang early in the morning.

As Natasha was sound asleep on the hospital bed, Kenneth immediately headed outside.

In the corridor, Kenneth picked up the phone and answered, “Hello, who is this?”

“Kenneth, it’s me, Mrs. Jarman,” A familiar voice replied.

Kenneth’s eyes formed a narrow line. “Mrs. Jarman, how can I help you?”

“Kenneth, are you with Thea?” Caroline popped the question.

Kenneth knitted his eyebrow and said, “Nope.”

“Then, did you manage to get in contact with her? I couldn’t reach her since yesterday,” Caroline

uttered.

“Is she not at home?”

“I don’t know. I tried looking for her at home, but no one answered the door. I’m not sure what to do.

Her father is going to be discharged from the hospital today but I couldn’t reach her. She’s not always

like that. Do you think something bad happened to her?” Caroline asked worriedly.

Kenneth immediately recalled what Thea told him the other night, which he forgot because of

Natasha’s incident.

“That day, she said that she wanted to speak to you about something. After that, I couldn’t contact her

anymore. I thought the two of you are together. I’m so worried. Something bad must have happened to

her!” Caroline descended into a state of panic.

Kenneth took a peek into the ward and said hesitantly, “Mrs. Jarman, calm down. I’ll go look for her. If I

have any news, I will notify you promptly.”

“All right. Thank you so much!”

Kenneth hung up afterward.

When he returned to the ward, Natasha was already sitting up straight on her hospital bed.

“You’re awake?” Kenneth asked.

Natasha flashed her a disgruntled look as if she woke up on the wrong side of the bed. “Yes.”

“I…”

“If you’re busy, you may leave. I’m fine staying here alone,” Natasha answered before he could finish

his sentence.

Kenneth pursed his lips. “No hurry. I’ll wait for someone to be here before I leave.”

Natasha fell silent and left Kenneth to do as he wished.

Kenneth seemed to have noticed Natasha’s glumness. “Actually…”

But before he could finish, the door opened and Terrence entered the ward.

Obviously, Terrence did not expect Kenneth to be there. He stared at him and asked, “Why are you

here?”

“Yesterday, I…”

“Denise was worried that I would be alone last night. Hence, she insisted that Kenneth come over,”

Natasha answered.

While it may be true that Kenneth needed an excuse, the fact that it came from Natasha made him feel

a little out of place.

Terence flashed Kenneth another look before presenting the oatmeal that he prepared for Natasha.

Natasha beamed. “Mr. Hamilton, I have someone here with me. You’re a busy person and you can

leave now. Please also tell Denise not to worry about me.”

Kenneth frowned as he had a gut feeling that there was a hidden message.

Meanwhile, Terence added, “Yup, you’re a busy person. There’s no need for you to come here.”

Kenneth stood at a corner, and he felt that he was being chased away.

He obviously felt dejected, but he couldn’t do anything about it.

At that moment, his phone rang again.

Kenneth identified the caller and uttered, “Yes, I do have something to attend to right now. I’ll leave now

then!”

Terence shrugged nonchalantly and took out the oatmeal. In his mind, all he thought about was

Natasha’s recovery.

“Here you go. Have some oatmeal,” said Terence.

Natasha looked away from the door and smirked. “Thank you, Gramps.”

Meanwhile, when Anthony followed Terence to the hospital, he saw Thalia’s car parked at the entrance.

He then asked Terence to enter the hospital first before heading toward Thalia’s car.

Anthony then knocked on the windows, and Thalia immediately opened her eyes. She took a look

outside and saw Anthony waving at her. Regaining her senses, she unlocked the car swiftly.

Anthony conveniently got in the car. “Why are you here?”

“It takes too much effort to travel such a long distance. I figured I might as well spend the night here.”

Thalia yawned before staring at Anthony. “I’ve rented a place and will be moving today.”

Anthony replied, “Are you for real?”

“Do you think I’m joking?” Thalia answered.

Anthony chuckled. “Yesterday, my mom saw you.”

“How do you know?” Thalia asked him back. However, she immediately realized that Anthony was a

skilled hacker, and he would be able to access the surveillance system if he wished. Hence, it would

not be surprising for him to find out.

“Since I was in disguise, I don’t think your mom could recognize me,” Thalia continued to say.

I would be surprised if she didn’t.

However, Anthony recognized that some things could not be concealed for long.

If Natasha knew, he might as well confess…

“All right. Get back to rest. I’m going to visit my mom,” Anthony simply said.

Thalia nodded in response.

Anthony opened the car door and exited.

Coincidently, Kenneth came out of the hospital. Anthony turned his back and saw Kenneth walking in

his direction.

They saw each other.

It was inevitable that they had to cross paths.

However, Kenneth was walking in Anthony’s direction briskly.

On the flip side, Anthony strolled calmly. They walked past each other as if they were strangers…

Kenneth realized that he may have seen a kid who looked just like him after he got into his car.
