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

Chapter 660

Several minutes later, Anthony slammed his hand on the keyboard.

Benjamin, who was staring at Anthony from behind, sighed in resignation. “Like what you said, if Thalia did it on purpose, it's only normal we can't find her.”

“It would've been fine if this were under normal circumstances. The problem right now is that she's wounded, and she has many enemies out there. She'll be in real danger if someone finds her!” said Anthony with frustration.

“What can we do, then? There's nothing we can do about it if we can't find her.”

Anthony knitted his brows with worry.

“Maybe we can contact Kyle? Thalia may be avoiding us, but it might not be the case for Kyle. We can get Kyle to contact her and make sure she's safe,” suggested Benjamin.

Anthony mulled it over and nodded. “Okay. You contact Kyle, while I stay here and try again.”

Benjamin glanced at him. “Why me again?”

Anthony looked up and cast his brother an innocent glance. “You were the one who made the suggestion. Shouldn't you call him?”

Benjamin took a deep breath and complained, “He interrogates me every time I call him. I'm not making this call, and this call is not happening if you keep avoiding him.”

Anthony stared at Benjamin intently and advised, “Think about it, Benjamin. He's already giving you such a hard time when you call. How do you think he's going to treat me?”

“No matter what, this is still your problem.”

Anthony was rendered speechless.

His original plan was to earn Benjamin's pity, but Benjamin rejected the request mercilessly.

“Benjamin...” Anthony said in a cute voice.

Benjamin merely scrutinized Anthony with no ounce of empathy in his eyes. “Perhaps if you address me as your big bro, I'll force myself to make that call.”

Anthony cast Benjamin a stern gaze. “Are you serious?”

“Of course!” Benjamin bobbed his head.

Narrowing his eyes, Anthony rose to his feet. “Forget it. I'll call him myself.” He grabbed the phone and made the call.

Benjamin merely arched his brow lazily. After Anthony walked off to make the call, he approached the couch and sat with his legs crossed.

Anthony hesitated for a moment but eventually dialed Kyle's number.

Before he could even utter the sentence he had spent a long time constructing, Kyle asked, “Wow, I thought you'd disappeared. I didn't expect you to call me.”

Anthony was momentarily at a loss for words.

Thankfully, he had already expected to hear that. “What are you talking about? I'm just a little busy these days.”

“Really?”

“Of course.”

“What are you busy with? I don't see you being active in anything recently. What can you be busy with?”

“I-It's personal stuff.”

“Hah. Personal stuff? Does that mean you've forgotten about public affairs over personal matters?”

Every word Kyle uttered was laced with an oppressive tone as if he had been waiting to say that for a long time.

However, Anthony knew he would keep getting nagged if he did not let Kyle vent it out.

“How could I? I've completed everything you gave me, haven't I?” asked Anthony.

“True. If you can complete it, why can't you come and meet me in person?”

“You're being a little overbearing now.”

“You're just feeling guilty.”

“Fine. I am feeling guilty.”

“Oh? You're actually admitting it shamelessly?”

“How is this being shameless? Tell you what. Not only am I a prideful person, but I am also good- looking!”

Kyle was rendered speechless.

“Enough. I wouldn't be so scared of you if you didn't keep saying you'd come over to see me.”

“What are you so scared of? I don't bite.”

“I'm afraid I'll scare you to death.”

Kyle snickered. “I'm quite looking forward to that.”

Taking a deep breath, Anthony said, “Fine. Just wait. I'll scare the living daylights out of you one day.”

“Why not now?”

“I've got lots to deal with. I'll meet you once I'm done with them.”

“Hmph, I doubt that. Do you really think I'd let you trick me again?”

“Fine. There's nothing I can do about it if you don't believe me. Anyway, let's put this aside for now. I have some proper business to talk to you about.”

“When do you not come to me for proper business?”

Ignoring the sarcastic remark, Anthony said, “Thalia left my place, and I can't get in touch with her. If you manage to get a hold of her, ask for her address and send it to me.”

Kyle fell silent instantly. “What do you mean?”

“Thalia's in danger. If you manage to get in touch with her, make sure you don't tell her it was I who told you to ask her that. And you must inform me first thing when you contact her.”

“Anthony, did you guys do something to her?” asked Kyle bluntly.

“Do something? What do you mean?” Kyle's question took Anthony by surprise.

“Why are you guys unable to contact her all of a sudden?”

“Um...”

“I'm warning you. I don't care if you're Anonymous. I'll break your limbs if you dare do anything to Thalia.”

Anthony was baffled. “Have you been reading too many novels? How did you come up with so much nonsense?”

“What is it, then? Given Thalia's character, she never leaves without saying a word no matter what happens.”

“Well... It's a long story.”

“Then keep it short.”

Anthony pursed his lips and began, “Thalia likes a guy. You know that, right?”

Kyle froze at the mention of that. “What's his name again? His surname's Teal, right?”

“Spencer Teal.”

“That's it. Spencer Teal.”

“I won't tell you the details. Basically, she got injured while saving him. Something might've happened between the two of them, which made Thalia leave without saying anything. I'm worried she'll be in danger since her enemies are everywhere. That's why I'm giving you a head's up. She's someone who prioritizes work, so she'll definitely take your calls.”

“There's one thing I still don't understand. Why isn't she contacting you either?” asked Kyle.

Anthony took a deep breath and explained, “I'm acquainted with Spencer, too, so she fears I might tell on her. Do you understand the situation now?”

“You're with him?” NôvelDrama.Org © content.

“Yes.”

“Okay. I understand now.”

Anthony exhaled deeply. “That's good. Then don't forget to let me know once you have news of her.”

After pondering for a while, Kyle said, “You're right. It's dangerous for her to be out there like that. What about this? Tell me where you are, and I'll go to you right now. Let's come up with a plan in person.”

Anthony fell silent.

Does he think I'm a fool?
