You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth) -
Chapter 460
After giving it some serious thought, Anthony said, "I didn't mean it before I said it out loud. But now I do."
Thalia frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
"This is the only way left," said Anthony deliberately with an air of nonchalance.
"What do you mean, this is the only way left? Now that your daddy, Kenneth, is here, I'm sure he knows what to do. By doing it your way, you're just risking your life!"
"He has a grudge against Daddy. He will surely focus all his energy on Daddy. But it's different when it comes to us. He won't be guarding against us, so it will be to our advantage."
"It's risky! You're playing with your life!"
"Everyone in our family risks our lives. Isn't that right?"
For a moment, Thalia was speechless. "Kenneth will never agree to this plan!" After she finished talking, she noticed the two boys staring at her, and realization dawned on her. "You are doing this to force Kenneth to show himself, aren't you?"
Benjamin nodded. "Did you just realize that?"
That was when Thalia let out a sigh of relief. "You should have said so earlier. I was afraid that you guys really intend to do that."
Anthony looked down and said nothing.
Benjamin looked at his brother and said, "We just want to use this method to force Daddy and see if he will appear."
Thalia nodded. "I see. No wonder you guys mentioned Anonymous in front of him just now. I was thinking to myself if you guys were up to something. So, it's true!"
"All right, we are all tired after being out for the entire day. Let's return to our rooms and get some rest. We can talk about the other things later on," said Anthony.
Thalia agreed, "Okay. Just call for me if there's anything."
The two boys nodded and walked toward their room.
Thalia stood in the corridor and watched as they entered their room. Somehow, she felt something was amiss, but she had no idea what it was. Eventually, she went back to her room too. It was late into the night.
The moment Anthony returned to the room, he fell asleep instantly.
It was an uninterrupted sleep.
Benjamin was seated next to him and looking at the computer.
Anthony opened his eyes, and when he saw his brother, he asked, "What time is it now?"
Benjamin checked the time and said, "It's going to be one."
Anthony was annoyed. "Why didn't you wake me up?"
"If you don't get proper sleep, you won't have the energy to do what you need to do."
Anthony pursed his lips. "So, you know?"
A grin appeared on Benjamin's face. "I already knew what you would do when you spoke to Thalia. I also know that you don't want to get her involved."
Anthony remained silent.
That's the magic of being twins. It's hard to hide anything from your twin sibling.
Just then, Benjamin saw something on his computer and said, "Oh, by the way, I have located Boss' position. Not surprisingly, Nat is there too!" With that, he pushed the computer in his brother's direction so that he could take a look too.
Anthony was shocked. The very next second, he hopped off the bed and walked to the computer. "How did you replace them?"
"There's nothing money cannot solve."
A smirk appeared on Anthony's face. "Good job."
Looking at the location on the computer, Benjamin continued, "I found out that this location isn't that far away from here. If we go by car, we should be able to reach there in less than twenty minutes."
"Is it where Vermillion Base is?"
"No. It's a hotel."
"A hotel?"
"The hotel has been booked a few days ago. But I'm not sure why."
Anthony pondered on it before looking at his brother.
"I know what you're thinking, and I agree with you," said Benjamin as he nodded.
"You know what I was going to say?"
"One look at your face and I can tell!"
Anthony smiled. "Shall we go, then?"
"I'm ready to go anytime!" With a shrug of his shoulders, Benjamin showed his brother that he was all dressed up and waiting for him.
Anthony nodded and smiled. "Good. Give me three minutes!"
With that, he turned around and swiftly got dressed.
Three minutes later, he asked Benjamin, "Ready to go?"
Carrying his backpack, Benjamin said, "Yes!"
After that, the two boys crept out of the house.
The uninhabited zone was an isolated area with very few people and insufficient supplies.
Although there had been an increase in people, the economy did not see any improvement at all.
Once they were out of the door, the two of them had to face the cold, hard truth. There was no cab in sight.
Even though there were vehicles during the day, they were pickup trucks. Now that it was late at night, it would be unlikely to see one.
In another word, it was an impossible task if they wanted to get to their destination.
Just as the two of them were feeling lost, they saw a figure sneaking around not far away from them. Anthony signaled for Benjamin to go over and check it out. "Thalia?" uttered Benjamin. "What is she doing out at this late hour?"
"Let's go over and replace out," said Anthony.
The two boys made their way over to Thalia.
She was looking at something in front of her when Benjamin walked up to her side and asked, "What are you looking at?"
That gave Thalia a shock. When she saw them, she frowned and asked, "What are the two of you doing here?"
Anthony said with confidence, "We saw you sneaking out, so we followed you."
"How come I didn't notice the two of you?"
"That's how talented we are!"
Thalia did not think too much about it. When she saw that there was no one ahead, she immediately walked over.
The two boys followed her. "What are you up to?"
"I'm following someone."
"Who?" asked Anthony.
"Who else can it be other than him?"
"Mr. Dave?"
Upon reaching a bend, Thalia hid against the wall and took a peek. She saw that the person was still there, so she waited.
At that moment, Benjamin popped his head out and saw the figure. He turned and informed Anthony, "It's Mr. Dave."
Anthony looked at her and asked, "Why are you following Mr. Dave?"
"Shouldn't both of you be asking what he is doing out so late?"
Only then did realization dawn on the boys.
That's right!
It is indeed very suspicious.
The two boys also looked in the same direction. The trio saw Dave going around another corner, so they followed him.
Anthony asked, "Where do you think Mr. Dave is going at this hour?"
Thalia responded, "We will replace out in a short while, won't we?"
Benjamin looked up at her and asked, "What makes you decide to tail Mr. Dave?"
"When I went downstairs for a smoke, I saw him sneaking around. Of course, I have to follow him," replied Thalia.
Benjamin smiled when he heard that. He then stuck his head out to see where Dave was heading when Dave stopped in his tracks all of a sudden and looked in their direction. Thalia quickly pulled him back.
The three of them leaned against the wall and dared not move.
