You're Out Daddy

Chapter 332

Natasha had nothing much to do during work, but she was still sitting in front of the computer, looking at something.

Right then, Ross walked over and placed a cup of coffee in front of her.

“For you, Ms. Watson,” he said.

Natasha lifted her head to study his expression. “What is it?” she asked as she picked up the cup and drank from it.

“Nothing. I'm just treating you to a cup of coffee. Don't think the worst of me,” Ross said to her.

After giving him another once-over, Natasha nodded and said nothing else.

“By the way, how is Denise? Is she fine?” he asked.

“Yes, she's fine,” Natasha replied.

“I wanted to visit her in the hospital, but there was too much work to be done in the office, so I'm still stumped about when I can visit her. Why don't I visit her after work today?” he suggested.

“It's fine,” Natasha told him.

“Why?”

“They moved today, so I'm afraid that they won't have the time to entertain you.” Then, Natasha turned to him and continued, “Most importantly, the place they moved to is quite far from the office.”

Upon hearing that, Ross said, “Moved? Ms. Watson, you've bought a house?”

“It has nothing to do with me. It's a manor that my grandpa and Kenneth's grandpa bought. They've all moved there now,” she briefly explained.

Ross' jaw dropped at that. “So that means the kids have been taken into the family? Does that mean they're the future heirs to Hamilton Corporation?”

Natasha drew her brows together. “Regardless of whether or not they're taken in by the family, they have the Hamilton family's blood in them. Whether or not they'll be the heirs to the Hamilton residence will depend on whether or not they want to take over the company.” Natasha then cast Ross a look that seemed to suggest that the children were unwilling to take over the company.

“What's the matter? Do they think nothing about the company?” Ross asked.

“Perhaps.” Natasha raised a brow.

Natasha could see that Anthony's interest did not lie with the company during their chat the other night. Perhaps what was superior to others was nothing to the children.

Natasha was glad to know that; she was glad to learn that her children were excellent individuals.

Ross fell silent in contemplation for a while. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. I doubt the kids will be lousy with Natasha's and Kenneth's genes. Denise is about to become a star, and her two brothers look like extraordinary kids.

With that thought in mind, Ross wistfully said, “Fate is truly everything. Some people are born to be better than others.”

Natasha raised her head to stare at him at that. “What's the matter? Thinking of reincarnating to another life now?”

“Well, not to that extent. Although I'm not too satisfied with my current life, I still have to try my best to live life until the end.” Ross chuckled.

Natasha smiled and said nothing else.

Right then, Ross noticed what was on her screen. “Ms. Watson, why are you checking plane tickets?” Then, he leaned closer to the screen and added, “You're going to Zaewora?”

It was already too late for Natasha to swap windows, so she switched off her screen with deliberate nonchalance. “I'm just taking a look.”

Ross narrowed his eyes. “You're not planning to go on a holiday with Mr. Hamilton, right? Even if you are, shouldn't you be going to cities that are more romantic? It's a little dangerous at Zaewora.”

Natasha's eyes flitted to the man. “Ross.”

“Hm?”

“Let me ask you a question.”

“What is it?”

“Kenneth knows everything I do in the company. Say, who do you think is reporting to him?”

Ross was taken aback for a second. “I— How am I supposed to know that?”

“You don't?”

Ross shook his head vigorously.

Natasha raised her brows. “Okay.”

“No, wait. For you to ask me that... Are you suspecting that it's me?” Ross asked.

“No. It was just a passing thought of a question.”

“Why don't you ask Thomas and Xavier?”

“They're not here right now.”

“No, no. I still think there's something amiss about this,” Ross persisted, feeling wronged.

“Why don't you let me check your phone to make sure that you're really innocent?” Natasha then extended her hand to him.

Ross tensed up before blinking. “I... It's not that I don't want to let you take a look at it, but that won't I have no privacy if I give you my phone? Moreover, I should give the girls who are courting me some privacy, too, right?”

Natasha arched a brow at him, a look that silently said, Keep bluffing.

“Hey now, you can't doubt your friend! You're hurting my feelings!” Ross righteously cried out. “Still, I'm a big-hearted man who won't stoop to your level. Don't do this again, got it?” Then, before Natasha could say anything else, he turned and left.

Natasha curled her lips as she watched him retreat.

Frankly, all she wanted to do was change the topic. To her surprise, she learned something new.

Even though Natasha did not know whether or not Ross was truly the one reporting to Kenneth, she knew for sure that Ross was in contact with Kenneth.

Natasha did not mind that. At the very end of the day, she trusted the three of them. They knew well what to say and what not to say.

With that thought in mind, Natasha refocused on the computer. As she stared at the plane ticket on the screen, she narrowed her eyes.
