You're Out Daddy

Despite her weak physical state, Natasha was still as feisty as usual.

Kenneth’s interest was piqued when he noticed her penetrating eyes glaring at him. He walked over and asked, “Why? Are you jealous?”

“Jealous?” Natasha questioned before immediately denying it. “That’s impossible.”

“Why would it be impossible? Why do you keep bringing her up if you aren’t jealous?” Kenneth asked as a strange look flashed across his dark, solemn eyes.

“I’m just curious,” she replied.

“What are you curious about?”

“I’m just wondering what kind of woman is capable of capturing your heart,” Natasha said.

“Why would you be curious about her?”

“I don’t think it’s strange for a woman you had abandoned to be curious about this. Don’t you think so?” asked Natasha.

Kenneth narrowed his eyes when he heard the word “abandoned” come out of her mouth. Even though she said it casually, the word still sounded offensive to him.

“Natasha, you don’t have to be so harsh. I did not abandon you.”

“Am I wrong?”

“We only got married because of Grandpa. There were no feelings of love between us, so our divorce was the best decision for both of us,” Kenneth explained.

Upon hearing his words, Natasha gathered her expression as she retracted the disappointment in her eyes. Then she nodded. “That… makes sense.”

The expression in her eyes somehow gave Kenneth the feeling that he had hurt her.

He furrowed his eyebrows and asked, “Why? Did you have feelings for me?”

The corner of her pale lips curled upward as Natasha scoffed, “I must be crazy if I had feelings for you.”

Somehow Natasha’s words were always so unpleasant to his ears.

Looking at her sternly, Kenneth warned, “It’s not entirely impossible for you to turn crazy. Natasha, it would be best if you stopped being curious about my affairs before things spiral out of control.”

“Don’t worry. I wasn’t planning on falling for the same trap twice.”
