You're Out Daddy

Chapter 658

Benjamin climbed out of bed early the next morning. He had been tossing and turning on the bed,

unable to sleep from the overwhelming thoughts of the things that had happened over the past few

days.

First, he was up to carry out their mission. Second, something about what happened the day before

made him suspicious. Since he could not sleep, he decided to get out of bed early.

After eating a simple breakfast downstairs, he took a set of breakfast back upstairs.

He stood in front of Thalia's door and knocked on it gentlemanly.

Silence answered him.

Benjamin knitted his brows and knocked again, but there was still no response.

Am I too early?

Benjamin leaned his ear to the door, only to hear nothing from inside.

“Thalia, are you awake? I've brought breakfast for you,” he said.

Alas, there was no response whatsoever.

After a moment of contemplation, Benjamin concluded that Thalia was still asleep, so he decided to

come back a while later. Right as he turned around, he froze.

Did something happen to her?

Alarm bells began ringing in his head.

He turned around and continued knocking on the door.

“Thalia, are you awake? I'm going to come in if you're not going to answer me.”

The only thing that answered him was still silence.

Benjamin panicked, and he turned the doorknob. The door was unlocked, so he opened it and walked

right in.

The inside of the room was neat and tidy, and so was the bed.

Benjamin's brows snapped together.

Where is she?

Thalia is the type to sleep until her body clock wakes her up much later in the day if she doesn't have

anything to do. There's no way she's going to wake up early in the morning.

Benjamin placed the breakfast tray on the table at the side before taking out his phone to call Thalia.

Unfortunately, her phone seemed to be switched off.

Right then, the housekeeper walked past the room. When she saw the opened door, she asked, “Are

you looking for someone?”

Hearing her, Benjamin turned around and nodded. “Yes. Do you know where the person who's staying

in this room went?”

The housekeeper smiled and replied, “Of course.”

“Where is she?”

“She left early in the morning.”

“She left?” Benjamin froze. “Where to?”

“I'm not too sure either. I only saw her heading toward the exit.”

“So you're saying that she has left this place?”

The housekeeper inclined her head. “That's right.”

While Benjamin was reeling in from the shock, the housekeeper left.

While Benjamin was reeling in from the shock, the housekeeper left.

Once he came back to his senses, he immediately went outside.

Anthony was still sleeping on the bed.

Benjamin rushed into his room and roughly pulled his blanket away. “Wake up, Anthony!”

Anthony frowned. “Can't you be a little more civilized and knock on the door before you come in?” He

pulled his blanket over himself, turned around, and went back to sleep.

“Stop sleeping! Wake up! Something has happened!”

“We can live on a different planet if this planet's about to die. Nothing as important as me getting my

precious sleep, so let's talk when I'm awake again,” Anthony mumbled, unable to even open his eyes.

“Thalia left,” Benjamin said.

“Oh...”

Benjamin stared at him for a while.

A few seconds later, Anthony shot upright and whipped his head in Benjamin's direction. With a groggy

look and messy hair, he asked, “What did you say? Who left?”

Benjamin sighed at his appearance. “Thalia.”

“Where to?”

“I don't know. I brought her breakfast this morning, but she wasn't in her room by then. The

housekeeper told me she left early in the morning.”

By then, Anthony had sobered up. “So you mean to say that she left this place?”

“Yeah.”

Anthony grumbled something under his breath before pulling his blanket away.

“Did you call her?” he asked.

“I did, but I couldn't reach her,” Benjamin replied.

After sobering himself up a little more, Anthony asked Benjamin, “Does Spencer know about this?”

Benjamin shook his head. “I don't know. I haven't gone to him yet.”

Anthony fell deep in his thoughts for a moment. “Something must have happened between the two of

them last night. Otherwise, she wouldn't have left without saying a word.”

“That's what I thought too. I wanted to ask her about it in the morning. Who knew I was still too late?”

Right then, a thought popped into Anthony's head. “Right, were there any missions from Kyle lately?”

“Nothing that I've heard of.”

“Find out if Kyle has assigned Thalia to a mission and if that's the reason she left without saying

anything. I'll check on Spencer's side.”

Benjamin furrowed his brows before bobbing his head. “Okay.”

The two of them went separate ways on their tasks.

Spencer had spent the entire night in the lab.

However, he was distracted the entire time to the point he kept making mistakes. He was evidently

absent-minded in his work.

He just kept thinking about the strange look on Thalia's face.

At that point, Spencer knew that it would be a waste of his effort to continue working.

He took off his disposable gloves and threw them into the bin before heading outside.

This is fine even if it means just catching a glimpse of her.

With that thought in mind, he walked toward the doorway.

Right as he opened the door, he saw Anthony, who had raised his hand to knock. The two of them

proceeded to stare at each other for a second.

Spencer drew his brows together. “Something's the matter?”

Anthony nodded.

“What is it?”

“Did you get into a fight with Thalia?” the boy asked.

Spencer averted his gaze and said, “That has nothing to—”

“She left,” Anthony said, cutting him off.

Spencer stiffened before turning back to Anthony. “What did you just say?”

“Thalia left before the sun came up,” Anthony enunciated.

Spencer began studying Anthony with a dubious look.

“It looks like you don't know about this. Spencer, I don't know what's going on between you and Thalia,

but she's hurt, and she has plenty of enemies out there waiting for her. If she bumps into any one of

them, she—”

Before Anthony could finish his sentence, Spencer had fled past him.

It took Anthony a beat before he spun around on his heels, but by then, Spencer was gone.

Anthony sighed and then hurried after the man.

When Spencer rushed to Thalia's room and saw how tidy everything was inside, he tensed up.

The memory of her reaction the night before flashed in his mind. She must have made up her mind

about leaving at that time.

As Anthony said, Thalia is still hurt and poisoned, and her enemies are a dime a dozen outside. If she

has genuinely left the place...

He dared not think of the possibilities.

When Anthony reached him and spotted the empty room, he commented, “You really must have hurt

her heart.”

“Where did she go?” Spencer abruptly asked.

Anthony blinked in surprise. “You're asking me that?”

A gloomy look crept onto Spencer's face as he stared at Anthony while trying to suppress the

overwhelming worry blooming in his chest. “Anthony, I'm not joking around with you. She's in grave

danger by herself, so tell me where she has gone to!”
