You're Out Daddy

Chapter 687

At that moment, Kenneth and Anthony were staring in the direction of the coffee shop.

They saw a few employees huddled together, trying to stop something but unsure of what to do. Natasha's and Thalia's figures were vaguely spotted in the middle. Most importantly, there was a mess on the floor.

Kenneth paused momentarily as though he had noticed something before rushing inside.

“Daddy,” Anthony called out. Then, as he stared in the direction his father left, he saw Natasha's figure through the floor-to-ceiling window.

After muttering “Nat,” he realized something as well and darted into the building.

At the same time, he contacted Benjamin. “I found Daddy and Nat. They're in the coffee shop near the car. Come quickly.”

Upon hanging up the phone, he chased after Kenneth.

Currently, in the cafe, Thalia was struggling in agony. She had flipped over the table, causing the floor to be blanketed in sharp, broken pieces of various objects.

Some employees were screaming, and some were shouting they were going to call the police. One guy seemed to be interested in helping as he stepped forward, but in reality, he just grabbed Thalia forcefully.

Upon seeing that, Natasha narrowed her eyes and slapped his hand away.

The male employee turned to Natasha with a frown. “What are you doing?”

“Don't touch her!” Natasha barked coldly.

“She's definitely a drug addict! I'm sending her to the police station!”

“She's just sick!”

“I've seen drug addicts before, and they all act like her when they're having withdrawals! You can't lie to me!” The man tried to grab Thalia again, but Natasha used her body to block his path and gazed at him icily. “Don't you dare touch her again!”

While the man was clearly intimidated by her, he refused to back down. “Don't blame me for what I'll do if you don't step away!”

Just as he tried to make a move against her, someone seized his hand, startling him.

Upon turning back, he saw an angry Kenneth glowering at him and saying, “Do you want to die?”

“Who are you?” the man questioned.

Kenneth sneered silently and tightened his grip.

It caused the man so much pain that his face twisted in agony. “Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!”

Meanwhile, Thalia was still doing her best to control herself. Natasha turned to Kenneth and said, “Don't make a big deal out of this, Kenneth! Right now, what's most important is Thalia!”

In response, Kenneth glanced at the male employee and spat coldly, “Consider yourself lucky today. Otherwise, I wouldn't have let this slide easily!” Then he pushed the man away, causing the latter to fall to the ground.

The man was upset, of course, but he didn't have the nerve to do anything but glare at Kenneth.

At the same time, Anthony approached the male employee and kicked the latter's leg because he saw what had transpired. How dare he bully Thalia and my mommy! He's practically asking for death!

Surprised, the employee stared at the boy. “You—” Before he could utter another word, he saw the murderous intent in Kenneth's eyes and sealed his mouth shut.

Natasha didn't want to make a big fuss out of the situation, so she spoke to the employees. “Everyone, she's just sick. That's why she accidentally broke your stuff. We'll compensate double for the losses we incurred. Everyone will get a share of that compensation. If you're willing to accept my offer, please stand back right now.”

The employees exchanged glances with each other before turning away. They weren't going to say no to that.

“Help me out, Kenneth,” Natasha requested.

In response, Kenneth nodded.

Meanwhile, Thalia was still struggling to endure the pain.

“Let me help you, Thalia!” said Natasha.

Tremblingly, Thalia nestled in the corner. “I-I'm in so much pain! It's so painful!”

“I know. Let me help you. The pain will be gone soon...” Slowly, Natasha stepped toward her friend.

Anthony was flabbergasted by the scene. While I don't know what exactly happened, I think this is why Thalia's attitude toward me changed so much!

Then, he noticed something and exclaimed, “Thalia!”

Just a second ago, Thalia was still curling in the corner. Then, without warning, she grabbed a glass shard on the floor and slashed her arm.

“Thalia!” Immediately, Natasha removed the glass shard from the woman's hand, but it was too late. A long streak of blood appeared on Thalia's delicate arm. As blood flowed out of her limb, Thalia closed her eyes, looking as though she was feeling better.

Afraid that her friend would do something dangerous again, Natasha knocked Thalia out by hitting the latter's nape.

Upon seeing that, Anthony stepped closer to them and asked, “What's going on, Nat?”

“We'll talk more after sending Thalia home!” Natasha replied.

The boy nodded.

Out of nowhere, Spencer busted into the coffee shop.

The instant he saw Thalia lying on the ground with a bloodied arm, he dashed toward her with widened eyes. “Thalia!”

At the moment, Thalia had passed out.

“Bring her back first, Spencer!” Natasha urged.

He nodded, picked Thalia up, and sprinted outside.

Natasha followed.

Just as Benjamin and Denise arrived at the entrance, they opened the door because they saw Spencer running toward them with Thalia in his arms.

“Over here.” Natasha opened the door to the car.

In response, Spencer carried Thalia into the vehicle.

The moment Natasha turned her line of sight to behind her, Anthony spoke. “We'll take care of things here, Nat. You should leave with them first.”

She nodded, jumped into the car, and left with Spencer.

Benjamin and Denise stood at the entrance, feeling confused. It wasn't until Natasha left that they returned to their senses and turned to their older brother. “What's going on? What happened to Thalia?”

Shaking his head, Anthony answered with a serious expression, “I really don't know. Although, I think we'll learn the truth soon enough...”

The trio was silent, seeming as if they had understood something without exchanging another word.

Soon, Kenneth approached them and swept his gaze across the children as well as Miguel.

Miguel shifted his line of sight away in response. I don't know anything, I didn't see anything, and I have nothing to do with this.

Upon approaching Kenneth, Denise grabbed his hand and inquired, “What happened to Thalia, Daddy? What's going on?”

He frowned and stared at her. “Why would I know about another woman's matters? Nat refrained me from doing so, you know!”

That rendered the little girl speechless. His excuse is flawless. I don't think I can get any information out of him.

Seeing that she had stopped speaking, Kenneth announced, “Let's go!”

Suddenly, Anthony recalled something and stared into the coffee shop. “What about the mess inside?”

“I've taken care of it. Let's leave!”
