You're Out Daddy

Chapter 592

It looks like Spencer isn't hopeless, after all.

At that thought, Natasha was finally put at ease.

Denise grinned and said, “You're amazing, Nat. You're able to solve anything and everything.”

Natasha had developed an immunity to her flattery. “Him being willing to eat means that he won't have any more extreme thoughts. Denise, continue keeping an eye on them. Let me know immediately if Thalia wakes up.”

Denise nodded. “I will.”

“You may go now.”

The little girl nodded and turned around to leave.

After the door was shut tight, Natasha let out a long sigh of relief.

Kenneth turned around to look at her. “Get some rest for now, and don't think about anything else. You don't have to worry about the rest.”

Natasha nodded obediently. “Okay!”

Then, she readjusted her position on the bed. She lifted her gaze to look at him and said, “Oh, that reminds me. Dave is injured as well, right? How is he?”

“It's a superficial one. The wound has been dressed, so there's nothing to worry about,” Kenneth replied.

Natasha nodded. “That's good.”

Kenneth's gaze snapped back to her. “You're not allowed to go out of this room anymore. You are also not to think about anything else. Just focus on getting a good night's sleep. I'll deal with everything else.”

Natasha smiled at him and nodded. “Okay.”

After she was settled in bed, Kenneth suddenly shot her a serious look. “One more thing. You are not allowed to undress another man, no matter what the reason is!”

Natasha couldn't help but laugh. She never knew that he was such a petty person. “I got it.”

Kenneth finally released some of the tension he was holding.

“Get some rest. I'll be outside.”

Natasha nodded in response.

With that, Kenneth turned around and left the room.

Natasha lay on the bed, the corners of her lips curling up when she thought of what had happened earlier.

When she thought about how everything had finally been settled, she felt like a huge weight had been lifted off her shoulders.

Closing her eyes, she drifted off to sleep with a smile on her face.

In the room, Spencer was still sitting by Thalia's bedside.

He was a talented and powerful man, but he looked rather pathetic at that moment. Kenneth glanced at him and asked, “Has she not woken up yet?”

“She lost a lot of blood, so she's very weak right now. She would probably only wake up tomorrow morning,” Spencer replied.

When Kenneth heard that, he piped up, “You know more than anyone how her condition is. Why are you doing this if that's the case?”

Spencer was stunned upon hearing that.

Kenneth continued, “You're doing this because things have spun out of your control. You didn't expect her to be willing to sacrifice this much for you, so you feel guilty and afraid.”

As Spencer listened, his lips curved into a mocking smirk. “Are you preaching to me, Mr. Hamilton?”

Kenneth also smirked at him. “What right do I have to preach to you? I was just sharing my experience.”

As he spoke, his gaze landed back on Spencer. “I used to think that she wasn't important to me. I even hated her. But when I watched with my own eyes as something befell her, I realized just how important she is to me.”

Spencer listened silently. He lowered his gaze, seemingly pondering over something.

“Nothing is ever too late. You just have to face your feelings head-on.”

“You don't understand. It's impossible for us to be together,” Spencer replied, enunciating each word.

“There is no such thing as 'impossible,' Spencer. It's whether you want to or not!” Kenneth shot back, making sure every single one of his words was heard clearly.

Spencer lifted his gaze to look at Kenneth. “Not everyone is as lucky as you, Kenneth. Not everyone is able to be together even after years of being apart!”

“You may think I'm just lucky, but to me, she's the woman I fought tooth and nail to win back.”

“If I could, I would sacrifice my life for her. But...” Spencer balled his hands into fists. The rims of his eyes turned red, and the veins on his forehead were visibly popping. After a long silence, he said through gnashed teeth, “But it's not going to happen. There is an obstacle between us that we can't overcome.”

Kenneth narrowed his eyes at him.

His intuition told him that Spencer had his reasons for feeling this way.

With that, Kenneth decided to let it go. He nodded and said, “I understand.”

“No, you don't understand.” Spencer gazed at the person lying in bed and whispered, his tone full of regret and pain, “She has never had something good happen to her ever since she met me. I'm practically a jinx to her.”

Kenneth lowered his gaze. He didn't know what had happened between them, but he was able to vaguely guess.

He reached out and patted Spencer on the shoulder.

Spencer remained silent and looked away.

Without uttering anything more, Kenneth turned around and exited the room.

Suddenly, Spencer called out to him, “Wait.”

Kenneth turned and looked at him.

Spencer reined in his emotions and asked, “How is she?”

“She is very weak, thanks to you,” Kenneth replied.

Spencer took in a deep breath. “I will remember your act of kindness.”

Kenneth shot him a look. “In that case, I'm afraid you have a lot to repay!”

“I will. I will repay everything I owe,” Spencer answered resolutely.

The look in Kenneth's eyes softened as he stared at Spencer. “Get some rest. We'll talk about everything else tomorrow.”

Spencer nodded in response.

With that, Kenneth turned and left.
