Chapter 871 Something Was Wrong With Anthony

Anthony hesitated for a moment and looked at her as he corrected, “I think calling it 'deliberate' isn't quite

appropriate-”

Thalia had a sudden outburst and almost slammed the table. “I'm already polite enough by not pointing out how

you're taking advantage of us! Anthony, do you really think I will believe your vague explanation?”

Anthony was stunned and looked at the angry Thalia. After a while, he blinked his innocent eyes and said softly, “I

was showing you guys some respect. Understandably, Benjamin and Denise were used because they lacked

experience or didn't guard against me, their elder brother. But you're Darknetz Ace. Isn't it more embarrassing if

somebody finds out that you were manipulated by a child?”

These words undoubtedly added fuel to the fire.

Thalia glared at Anthony, her eyes blazing with anger. Even at a time like this, he was still playing with words.

As she stared at him, her fists were clenched tightly and made cracking sounds. She sneered, “Yeah, you're right. If

people find out that I, Thalia, was manipulated by a kid, I'll be d*mned. In that case, I have no choice but to silence

you to protect myself!”

When Thalia reached for him, Anthony immediately shouted, “Miguel, save me!”

Almost instinctively, Miguel reached out and shielded Anthony behind his arm safely.

Thalia looked him in the eye and asked, “What is it? Are you willing to die for him?”

“I...” Looking at her, Miguel did not know what to say, but after a moment of hesitation, he blurted out, “He's my

master. I can't just stand by and do nothing!”

Thalia chuckled lightly. “Can you beat me?”

“No,” he replied.

“Are you here to court your own death?”

“I don't want to die either!”

“Then get lost!”

After careful consideration, Miguel put his arm down. “Okay!”

The result had Anthony's eyes widened in disbelief, and he stared at Miguel. “Are you really going to just abandon

your master like this?”

“Master, don't worry. In my lifetime, I will avenge you. Even when I'm a hundred years old, I will never let her off the

hook!” Miguel swore.

Pfft! Nobody can wait until then!

Before Anthony could even say anything, Thalia's hand reached out directly. Now, it was too late for him to escape.

Just as Anthony was thinking about how to beg for mercy, his phone suddenly rang.

Regardless of who was the caller, Anthony would praise them as his life savior.

When he checked the phone and saw that it was a call from Kenneth, Anthony turned to Thalia and said, “It's

Daddy. I need to take this call!” With that, he stood up and walked to the side with his phone.

Thalia was genuinely angry, but she also knew that every phone call now was crucial.

Therefore, the anger she failed to vent out was stuck in her throat. Thalia stared at Anthony's retreating figure and

could not help but say, “He's just like Kenneth - always scheming against others!”

On the side, Benjamin and Denise heard it clearly.

If she was talking about Anthony, why bring up Kenneth too?

Just as Denise was about to speak up for her father, Benjamin grabbed her sleeve and shook his head at her.

Denise widened her eyes as she looked at him, and the two communicated through their gazes. She asked: It's

about Anthony. What does it have to do with Daddy?

Benjamin continued to shake his head and replied: It's just a couple of words; it won't hurt anyone. Their discord has

been going on for quite some time now. If Daddy doesn't mind, why do you have to go out of your way to meddle?

Denise had a realization and said: That makes sense.

Benjamin signaled: So, stay calm!

Denise took a deep breath, gradually calming down and regaining her composure.

Anthony stepped aside and answered the phone. “Hi, Daddy!”

“How's the progress going?” Kenneth asked.

“It's hard to say, but we'll have the results in a day or two!” Anthony answered.

There was a brief pause on the other end of the phone, and Anthony sensed something, so he immediately asked,

“Is there something wrong, Daddy?”

Kenneth replied, “It's nothing. I'm just wondering when you guys will be back.”

“It's a bit more troublesome than planned. We were originally scheduled to leave this afternoon, but there's been a

last-minute change. We might need another day or two!”

“All right, I got it. You guys take care and stay safe!”

“Okay!” Anthony replied.

“That's all,” Kenneth concluded.

“Wait a moment, Daddy!” Anthony stopped him just in time.

“Is there anything else?” Kenneth asked.

“Where's Nat? Is she all right?” Anthony questioned.

Kenneth said, “She's sleeping, and she's doing great!”

“Then, is she...” The words were on the tip of Anthony's tongue, but he hesitated.

“What is it?”

“Is Nat eating well?”

“Of course. With me around, she'll definitely eat well!”

“That's great!”

“Is there anything else?”

“Nothing else.”

“All right, take care!” And with that, Kenneth hung up the phone.

Anthony held his phone and was in a daze for a while.

“What's the matter? Too scared to come back under the pretext of answering a phone call?” Thalia could not help

but mock from behind.

Anthony turned around and walked toward them, but he had a rather solemn expression on his face.

Thalia raised her eyebrows. “Are you putting on a show now?”

At that moment, Anthony looked at her and said, “I feel like there's a hidden meaning in Daddy's phone call!”

Thalia did not believe a word he said and glared at him. “You think I'd still believe you?”

“I'm telling the truth!” Anthony said earnestly.

Thalia observed his expression, and Anthony did not seem to be faking it, so she furrowed her brows. “What's

wrong?”

“I can't put my finger on it. Daddy rarely takes the initiative to call me, and today he asked me when I'm going

back. I feel like there's something more to his words!” Anthony explained.

Thalia did not find any fault that Anthony pointed out. “It's normal for a father to call his son and ask when he's

coming home. Where's the problem?”

Anthony could not put it into words, but it was roughly a strong intuition.

“None can do. I'll give Nat a call!” With that, Anthony flipped through his contacts, found Natasha's number, and

dialed it directly.

Benjamin and Denise were watching from the side. Denise glanced at the time and said, “At this hour, Nat is

probably still sleeping...”

Anthony did not respond. Even if it meant disturbing Natasha's dream, he had to make the phone call.

Benjamin looked at Anthony, noticing that something had been off with the latter lately.

There was an unspoken agreement between them; they would never disturb Natasha while she was sleeping.

However, Anthony seemed to have other plans.

To be more precise, Anthony seemed to be overly concerned about anything related to Natasha these days.

Benjamin did not speak and just continued staring as if trying to discern something from Anthony's appearance.

Just then, the phone call was connected.

Natasha greeted, “Hey...”

“Nat.” Upon hearing the voice on the other end of the phone, Anthony felt relieved and instantly let out a sigh of

relief.

Over at Natasha's side, her voice was dripping with laziness when she asked, “What's up?”

“Um... are you sleeping?” Anthony asked.
