You're Out Daddy

Chapter 424

He was still thinking about the matter when he heard Dave's urgent voice from the other end of the line.

“There's a black car parked ahead on the left. Your woman is standing beside it.”

When Kenneth heard those words, he turned his head in said direction and ran ahead right away.

“Also, there's something I need to tell you. It's possible she already met up with the boss and is waiting

at the side of the road. She's probably going to leave now,” said Dave.

Kenneth was stunned for a moment after he learned that. He then picked up his pace.

It felt as though he was putting everything he had into every step he took.

“They got into the car,” reported Dave.

Kenneth sprinted even faster.

When he finally reached the junction, he saw that the black car in question was on the other side of the

road. He was there in time to see Natasha getting into the car.

“Natasha!” shouted Kenneth loudly. He was going to run to the other side, but a car suddenly drove

past him. Kenneth instinctively backed away. When he looked up again, he noticed that the black car

had already started its engine and driven away.

“Natasha!” screamed Kenneth once more. The car was long gone by the time he ran to the other side

of the road.

He tried his best to stop the black car, but he couldn't. The cars on the road kept zipping by nonstop,

and no one stopped to let him cross the road.

Sh*t!

Kenneth cursed internally as he watched the car drive out of his sight.

Meanwhile, in the car, Natasha was wearing her headphones while wearing a stoic expression on her

face. She was emanating a cold aura.

Boss sat next to her, looking behind. When he got into the car, he heard Kenneth's voice and caught a

glimpse of the man running toward them.

Unfortunately, Natasha didn't see or hear anything.

Boss' lips curved into a smile.

I bet Kenneth is worried sick now.

Boss thought about the night he had to endure immeasurable shame. He had always wanted revenge.

Hence, at that moment, he was ecstatic. To him, watching Kenneth suffer was much better than

stabbing him with a knife.

Natasha noticed Boss' strange smile at that moment. She looked at him and asked, “What is it?”

Boss reverted his attention back to her and shook his head chivalrously. “It's nothing.”

Natasha took off her headphones at that moment. She kept her eyes on him when she asked, “Where's

the thing I asked for?”

“I'll give it to you once we reach our destination.”

Natasha continued staring at him, sizing him up.

Boss simply chuckled in response. “There's no need to look at me like that. Don't worry. I've already

promised you. I'll keep my word.”

Natasha looked away and never said another word.

Boss turned to her at that moment. He thought about it for a bit before asking nonchalantly, “Did

Kenneth come here with you?”

The mention of Kenneth made Natasha throw him a sidelong glance. Her eyes were practically

shooting daggers as she spoke. “That is none of your concern.”

The more insolent and aloof she was, the more Boss admired her.

He glanced at her before leaning back on the seat lazily. Fiddling with the ring on his left pinky with his

right hand, he said nonchalantly, “He messed with me at Glenport City, so if he were to show up here, I

will not show him any mercy.”

Those words made Natasha stiffen.

She turned around and looked right into his eyes.

“He is the one responsible for my injuries,” said Boss. There wasn't a hint of anger on his charming

face when he said those words. In fact, he was smiling. The glow in his eyes, however, was filled with

the kind of hatred that could send a chill down anybody's spine.

Natasha scanned him for a moment. Then, she sneered. “So? Why would I care? That is between the

two of you.”

“Oh, so you really don't care?” asked Boss.

“He is a man of his own. He doesn't need or want me to protect him,” replied Natasha, enunciating

every word.

“Oh, are you implying that I am not a man of my own?” Boss retorted.

Natasha curled her lips before turning away haughtily. “Your words, not mine.”

Boss wasn't angry or triggered. He simply replied, “I never consider myself a kind person. In fact, I can

be merciless and will stop at nothing to get what I want. I am well aware of that fact and am okay with

it, so your words can't provoke me.”

“Merciless, huh? Are you implying that I shouldn't trust you?” challenged Natasha.

Boss raised his brows upon hearing that. “I do have a good quality, though. I am a man of my word.”

Natasha glanced at him and scoffed before looking away once more.

The car sped down the road.

It didn't take long before it stopped somewhere.

Boss opened the door and gestured for Natasha to get out.

She followed behind him.

When she checked out her surroundings, she realized that she was in an unfamiliar place.

“We're not in Vermillion Base, are we?” said Natasha as she turned to him.

Boss shifted his gaze to her and answered, “Of course not. I haven't told the general about you yet. I'll

do that in a few days. In the meantime, I will have to ask you to stay here temporarily.”

Natasha merely looked at him wordlessly.

She knew all too well that it would not be easy for her to leave now that she was there. Nonetheless,

she would make use of her time there to find some useful information.

With that thought in mind, she retracted her gaze and headed in right away.

Boss watched her enter before following closely behind.

The hotel, in general, was pretty good.

Natasha took her luggage to the room and rested for a bit. When it was time to eat, she made her way

to the restaurant on her own.

It just so happened that Boss was there, too.

A few exquisite dishes were placed on the table, and it seemed untouched.

Natasha made a beeline to him. “Do you mind if I join you?”

Boss gestured for her to take a seat. “It would be my honor to share a meal with a beauty like you.”

She then took a seat.

“Are these dishes to your liking?” asked Boss.

She shot a look at him before answering, “I'll order something else.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she waved to summon the waiter.

She ordered a simple meal, then handed the menu to the waiter. “Thank you.”

Boss, who was at the side, kept his eyes on her. He didn't know why, but he found Natasha's unique

and independent character rather attractive.

Natasha turned to him at that moment. “Are you staying here as well?”

Boss regained his senses and nodded. “Yeah.”

“I won't run away,” said Natasha all of a sudden.

Boss chuckled. “I am not here to keep an eye on you. In fact, you are free to do whatever you want

here. It just so happens that this is where I often stay, so please don't overthink things, Ms. Watson.”

“Is that so?”

“Yep!”

“Why aren't you staying at the base instead?”

“To be honest, I don't like that place. I would rather stay here. Most importantly, you are my guest, Ms.

Watson, so it's only natural that I play the role of a good host to you,” replied Boss.

The waiter showed up at that moment to serve the dishes.

Natasha lowered her eyes and ate. Moments later, she asked, “Where are the photos? When are you

going to give them to me?”

Boss stilled for a few seconds when she brought that up. Subsequently, he fished the photos out of

nowhere and looked at them before placing them on the table and pushing them toward Natasha.

“Like I said, I am a man of my word,” Boss uttered while looking at her.

A surge of sorrow bubbled up in her heart the moment she saw her father's photos.
