You're Out Daddy

Chapter 459

Benjamin nodded.

Just then, Anthony looked around and said, “Right now, the most important thing is to find Daddy.”

At the mention of their father, Benjamin asked, “If we can't find him, are we going to keep looking for him here?”

Anthony frowned.

Darknetz and Kenneth did not see eye to eye. There was no way Anthony could ask Darknetz for help. It was already very kind of Thalia to accompany them in their search. He could not ask any more of her.

After giving it much thought, they could only ask DX for help. However, the thought of Dave made Anthony even more flustered, and the frown on his forehead became even deeper.

Anthony said sarcastically, “This is the first time I realized that being young is such a helpless issue!”

Benjamin looked at him. “I know, right? I wish to become a grown-up right now so that I can protect Nat!”

Anthony looked up at Benjamin and knew that now was not the time to feel dejected. “I think since Daddy knows we are here, then he must be aware of our whereabouts as well.”

“You mean...”

Anthony nodded. “Daddy won't allow us to go there on our own. If he finds out about it, he will surely show up and stop us.”

Benjamin agreed with his brother. “It sounds like an idea. But will Daddy fall for it?”

“That will depend on what Mr. Dave says.” A determined look flashed across Anthony's eyes.

Benjamin understood what he meant and nodded.

Just then, Anthony stopped walking. “Okay, there's no point searching anymore. Let's go back.”

Benjamin nodded in agreement.

Thalia was still walking when she saw the boys stopping. She asked, “Why are you guys stopping?”

“We aren't looking for Daddy anymore.”

“What!”

“We're going back.” With that, Anthony walked ahead of them.

It was only then that Thalia returned to her senses. She asked Benjamin, “A-Aren't we looking for your daddy anymore?”

“Nope! We are stopping the search,” replied Benjamin.

Thalia was confused. Has the sun risen from the west? Why are they giving up on the search?

“There has been a change in our plan. We'll talk when we get back,” said Benjamin, and he walked away too.

As Thalia looked at their retreating figures, realization soon dawned on her, and she quickly followed the boys. “What other plans? Can't you let me know and put my mind at ease?”

When they got back, Dave was standing at the door and having his coffee.

There was no change in his expression when he saw them return.

“How did it go? Did you find anything?” Dave asked Anthony.

Anthony contemplated before answering, “Of course we have.”

“Oh?” Dave sized them up.

Anthony walked up to Dave and said, “Mr. Dave, I assume you didn't go out today. The uninhabited zone is no longer the same as before.”

Dave pursed his lips and said nothing.

“The reward put up by Anonymous worked. There are quite a number of people who have gathered here. Apparently, someone has seriously injured Boss yesterday!” claimed Anthony.

“And?”

“We thought about it and decided not to look for Daddy anymore since we can't find him. I intend to let Anonymous offer another reward and attack Boss so that we can rescue Nat.”

“You guys plan to go personally?” asked Dave as he eyed him with surprise.
