You're Out Daddy

The conversation eventually ended there.

It was evident that Kenneth still couldn’t get over the matter.

After pondering for a while, Natasha looked at him and questioned back, “What about you?”

“I have never thought of giving the two children up!” Kenneth responded seriously, enunciating every

single word.

“I meant to ask if you regretted what you did to me,” Natasha replied.

Kenneth paused for a while before responding, “Those are two different matters.”

“It is the same thing!” Natasha said. “If you hadn’t treated me like that back then, I wouldn’t have kept it

from you either.”

Kenneth pursed his thin lips and fell silent.

“You’ve never thought of giving the two children up but would you have allowed them to stay with me?

Would you allow them to have a mother like me, whom you find to be such a disgrace? You won’t,”

Natasha continued with certainty. “So even if I did that out of my own selfish intentions, is there any

problem with that? Why should I keep your flesh and blood and make myself go through the pain of

parting with them?”

Kenneth remained silent.

Natasha went on, “So don’t just put all the blame on me. I admit that my actions were selfish, but I have

to say that it was the best outcome for both of us. There’s nothing tying us together, and we wouldn’t

have to deal with each other. And there wouldn’t be a need for us to be an indispensable part of each

other’s lives.”

“If they were still here, I wouldn’t mind,” Kenneth replied.

Natasha glanced at him and was stunned for a moment before saying, “I mind.”

Kenneth’s gaze was full of doubts as he looked at her.

“I don’t have the upper hand in this matter, so I won’t choose to make myself suffer. If I had the choice,

I hope that the one who’s in misery is you.” Natasha’s words were frank and direct.

She couldn’t care less if he called her selfish or merciless, as that was exactly the type of person she

was.

In their relationship, she had no complaints about making sacrifices. But the moment she decided to let

go, she didn’t wish to become the one on the losing end.

Once Natasha finished speaking, Kenneth stepped on the brakes.

Natasha turned to look outside the window and saw that they were already at her house.

Natasha suppressed her emotions and looked at him. “I’ve already made myself very clear. I’m sure

you’ll understand. Also, thank you for yesterday, and thank you for sending me back today.” With that,

Natasha pushed the door open and got out of the car. She hoped that that was all there was to her

relationship with Kenneth in the future.

However, just as she stepped out of the car, Kenneth opened the door and got out as well.

“Natasha,” Kenneth called out. “If I’m given the choice, I would rather that we become an indispensable

part of each other’s lives than be in our current state.”

At this, Natasha glanced at him and gave him a faint smile. “What a pity. It’s too late now.”

Kenneth was just about to say something when a car stopped beside them.

Terence got out of the car and looked at them. Eventually, he cast a questioning look at Kenneth and

asked, “What are you doing here?”

Upon seeing Terence, Kenneth contained his emotions and greeted him politely, “Hi, Old Mr. Watson.”

Terence’s gaze lingered and fell upon Natasha’s bandaged arm. With a frown, he asked, “Nat, are you

hurt? What happened?”

“I’m fine, Gramps,” Natasha replied.

There was still blood seeping through the bandage around her arm and her injury looked serious.

Terence glanced at Kenneth. “You rascal. Were you the one who did this? What did you do to Nat? Let

me tell you this. I don’t care whose grandson you are, but if you dare to hurt Nat, I won’t let you off!”

When she saw Terence fly into a rage, Natasha rushed forward to calm him down. “Gramps, this has

nothing to do with him. He wasn’t the one who did it.”

“Who else could have done it besides him?” Terence glared at Kenneth.

The latter merely stood there in silence and didn’t try to explain himself. It wasn’t that he was afraid, but

it was out of respect toward Terence.

“Grandpa, it really isn’t him. An accident happened yesterday, and he was the one who saved me,”

Natasha hurriedly explained. If she didn’t make things clear then, there was a possibility that Terence

would end up beating Kenneth.

Hearing this, Terence looked toward Natasha. “Nat, don’t be afraid. Now that I’m here, no one can try to

bully you.”

“It’s true, Gramps. There’s no need for me to cover up for him,” Natasha replied.

“Really?”

Natasha nodded profusely to show that she meant her words.

It was only then that Terence was slightly appeased and looked at Kenneth. “If that’s what Nat says,

then I’ll believe you. But Kenneth…” Terence pondered for a while before continuing, “Nat is the only

descendant left in the Watson family. I don’t want any harm to happen to her. I hope you can

understand this.”

Kenneth nodded. “I understand.”

“That’s good.” As he said that, Kenneth glanced at Natasha again. “All right. Let’s go upstairs and let

me have a look. What exactly happened?”

“It’s just a minor injury, and I was the one who caused it.” With that, they headed upstairs amid

Terence’s worry.

Meanwhile, Kenneth stood downstairs. It was only after he watched them go in that he retracted his

gaze, got into his car, and drove off.

Upstairs, Terence held the medical kit and looked at her injury carefully by the side.

“The wound must be very deep. This won’t do. I think you should go to the hospital to get it treated,”

Terence advised her.

“Gramps, I’ve already treated it at the hospital. They’ve already applied the medication. It really isn’t a

big deal,” Natasha responded.

It was only then that Terence heaved a sigh of relief. However, he relentlessly continued to probe

further. “So what exactly happened?”

“Um… It’s difficult to explain. But don’t worry, Gramps. I’ll take care of this.”

“No. You have to tell me everything.”

Natasha knew that he wouldn’t stop pestering her until she made things clear.

After contemplating for a while, Natasha explained, “Yesterday, I went to negotiate a project deal with

Gaston from Prime Investment Corporation. He got rowdy… and I ended up hurting myself to stay

conscious. But afterward, Kenneth came to my rescue and even beat him up. He then sent me to the

hospital, which is how I ended up with this.” She gave a brief overview of the entire process.

Although Natasha made it sound simple, Terence knew that it was not how the situation went.

However, when he heard that Kenneth saved her and even beat the guy up, Terence felt slightly more

satisfied. Besides that, his prejudice against Kenneth was also reduced by a little.

All of a sudden, he seemed to remember something and immediately switched on the television. At that

moment, the news was being broadcasted.

“At nine o’clock this morning, the International Trade Administration and the Major Crimes Unit jointly

went to Prime Investment Corporation and arrested Mr. Williams, an executive at Prime Investment

Corporation. Based on live reports, Mr. Williams has committed corporate crimes and rape, among

many other charges. They have now acquired conclusive evidence…”

After looking at the footage of Gaston being arrested on the news, Terence turned to look at Natasha.

“Did you do this?” Terence asked.

Natasha immediately shook her head. “It’s not me. I haven’t even found the time to do it.”

Terence believed her. If she was the one who did it, she wouldn’t deny it.

“Then isn’t this such a coincidence?” Terence asked.
