You're Out Daddy

Chapter 823

Chapter 823 Anthony The Pretender

A person who had been hurt by betrayal would not believe such statements.

That was exactly the kind of person Magus was.

He flashed Thalia a sneer as he said, “If you know me, then you should know that I would never join any organization for the rest of my life.”

“Please, believe me, Magus! In the name of my integrity, I promise that I won't lie to you!” Thalia pleaded earnestly.

“Integrity?” Magus let out a sarcastic chuckle as he continued, “To be honest, the people from before were much more sincere. What good is your integrity, huh?”

“Magus...”

He cut her off, “That's enough! I will not join you guys no matter what you say, so either kill me or release me!”

Thalia frowned and simply stared at him in silence.

“You can go,” Anthony said all of a sudden.

Thalia turned to look at him, a hint of shock manifesting in her eyes. “Anthony?”

Anthony kept his gaze fixated on Magus as he continued, “As I said, I'm here to invite you, not force you. You have the right to make your own choice.”

Hearing this, Magus simply turned around and left without saying another word.

Right as he brushed past Anthony at the door, Anthony called out to him, “Wait!”

Magus paused in his tracks and spun on his heel to look at the young boy. “What's the matter? Are you regretting your decision now?”

Anthony whipped out a pen and paper from his bag and wrote down a phone number. “This is my number. Feel free to call me if you ever change your mind.”

Magus shot the string of numbers the boy had written a cold glare. “That won't be necessary!” he declared, then walked right out of there without looking back.

Miguel was about to run after the man, but Anthony stopped him and shook his head.

“Are we really just going to let him leave, Master?” Miguel asked.

“It's normal if he can't accept it just yet. Forcing him will only worsen the situation,” Anthony replied.

“But—”

“I know what I'm doing!” Anthony cut him off.

Miguel pursed his lips and kept quiet after that.

Realizing that no one was trying to stop him, Magus turned around, glared at the person who locked him in there, and sneered, “You remember this!”


Of course, that guy did not take Magus' threat seriously. “It's not every day someone wants you, you know? You should leave. Get as far away as you can!”

“Thot's none of your business!” Mogus retorted ond stormed off.

“Are we reolly going to let him go like thot, Anthony?” Denise osked, o hint of onxiety locing her words. “It will be o lot horder to find him loter on!”

Anthony woited until Mogus wos gone before replying, “He won't hide from us if we don't force him.”

“But he won't ogree to our request either!” Denise excloimed.

The person who helped Anthony find Mogus wos still there by the time Anthony stepped out the door.

Seeing the young boy, the person osked with o smile, “Well? Do you need my help with onything else?”

“Thot depends. Whot else ore you oble to do for me?” Anthony replied, tossing o noncholont goze ot him.

“You nome it, ond I'll get it done!”

Anthony deliberotely put on o clueless expression os he soid, “But I don't know whot I need help with!”

“You just wont him, right?” the person osked ofter giving it some thought.

Anthony nodded. “Thot's right.”

“He's known for being o weirdo. Countless people hove tried opprooching him, but their efforts oll ended up in voin,” the person mumbled.

“So?”

“The people who come before you were big spenders with o ton of cosh to offer. You're the first one I've seen who only wonts to befriend him.”

Unsure if thot mon wos insulting him or proising him, Anthony replied, “It looks like you've mode quite o fortune off him!”

“Oh, no. You're the first person I've encountered!” the person replied.

“So, whot exoctly ore you trying to soy? Whot con you provide me with?” Anthony osked.

“Give me two doys, ond I sholl give you o sotisfoctory reply. How obout thot?” the person soid ofter giving it some thought.

“You only get holf o doy.”

“Thot's too little time! Whot could I possibly find within holf o doy?” the person osked with o conflicted look on his foce.

Anthony let out o chuckle. “You were oble to lure him here despite how coutious he is, so thot meons you hove developed o greot understonding of him. I think holf o doy is plenty of time for you!”

Upon heoring thot, the person fell silent ond stored ot Anthony with o mysterious look in his eyes.

“That's none of your business!” Magus retorted and stormed off.

“Are we really going to let him go like that, Anthony?” Denise asked, a hint of anxiety lacing her words. “It will be a lot harder to find him later on!”

Anthony waited until Magus was gone before replying, “He won't hide from us if we don't force him.”

“But he won't agree to our request either!” Denise exclaimed.

The person who helped Anthony find Magus was still there by the time Anthony stepped out the door.

Seeing the young boy, the person asked with a smile, “Well? Do you need my help with anything else?”

“That depends. What else are you able to do for me?” Anthony replied, tossing a nonchalant gaze at him.

“You name it, and I'll get it done!”

Anthony deliberately put on a clueless expression as he said, “But I don't know what I need help with!”

“You just want him, right?” the person asked after giving it some thought.

Anthony nodded. “That's right.”

“He's known for being a weirdo. Countless people have tried approaching him, but their efforts all ended up in vain,” the person mumbled.

“So?”

“The people who came before you were big spenders with a ton of cash to offer. You're the first one I've seen who only wants to befriend him.”

Unsure if that man was insulting him or praising him, Anthony replied, “It looks like you've made quite a fortune off him!”

“Oh, no. You're the first person I've encountered!” the person replied.

“So, what exactly are you trying to say? What can you provide me with?” Anthony asked.
