You're Out Daddy

Chapter 901 No One To Blame

Observing his guarded expression and evasive behavior, Anthony sensed that something was off.

He shut the door, retraced his steps, and positioned himself in front of Spencer. Placing both hands on the table, he leaned forward and spoke with determination. “Spencer, there's something you're not telling me, isn't there?”

Spencer lowered his gaze. “No.”

“There is,” Anthony stated firmly, his conviction unwavering. The way Spencer avoided his gaze was confirmation enough.

Spencer remained silent, his lips pressed together.

“What's really going on, Spencer?” Anthony probed.

Nevertheless, the man remained silent. For the first time in his life, he was at a loss for words, stumped by a question from a child.

“You're not planning to tell me, are you?” Anthony inquired, his tone a mix of frustration and determination. “Fine, then. I'll go find Thalia. She should know what's going on.” With that, Anthony turned and swiftly exited the room.

“She doesn't know.” Spencer suddenly spoke, watching Anthony's retreating figure.

Anthony halted and turned back, locking eyes with Spencer.

The latter took a deep breath before continuing, “I can share the truth with you, but I must clarify that this matter has nothing to do with Thalia.”

Anthony's expression grew more serious, his intuition telling him that this matter might not sit well with him.

Spencer's lips tightened as he continued, “The reason Thalia hasn't had a relapse is because her poison has been cured.”

As soon as the man's words reached Anthony's ears, his eyes immediately narrowed. “Cured? How was it cured?”

“With the antidote.”

“Where did you get the antidote?” Anthony asked, disbelief filling his eyes.
