You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth)

Chapter 291

Truth was, Natasha had the urge to kill Thea at some point.

The thought of Denise having a high fever and raving gave Natasha the urge to make Thea disappear from the face of the earth.

No parent could accept someone treating their child that way, including Natasha.

However, her last shred of sanity prevented her from reacting rashly.

Natasha knew Thea deserved to be punished, but death was not the answer.

Most importantly, Thea was right about something. The three children could not have a murderer as a mother.

At that thought, Natasha tamped down her desire to kill Thea.

Yet, in order to vent her anger, Natasha could only torture Thea repeatedly.

Every time Natasha watched Thea struggle in the water, the look of fear and helplessness on the latter's face made her feel much better.

Just like that, the entire “game” lasted till midnight.

Thea was in so much torture that she wanted to kill herself. However, Natasha did not give her the chance to do so. In the end, Thea started crying and begging for forgiveness.

Soon, it got deeper into the night.

Natasha's phone rang. Seeing Denise's name on the screen, Natasha released Thea into the water and answered it.

“Hello?” “Nat, when are you coming back?” Denise asked.

“What's up?”

“I miss you!”

Natasha's heart melted at those words, and she beamed. “Okay. I'll be right back.”

“I'll be waiting!” Denise responded, grinning. Evidently, she was feeling much better.

“Okay!” Natasha hung up and put the phone away.

Realizing the woman in the water was on the brink of death, Natasha pulled her back up again.

This time, Thea did not have the strength to struggle.

Natasha tightened her grip around the rope and sailed the speedboat in a specific direction.

Meanwhile, a man was trapped in the water from another speedboat not far away. When he saw Natasha's speedboat approaching, he called out excitedly, “H-Help me!”

Disgust flashed through Natasha's eyes when she saw his face.

However, he was not bothered by it and simply held onto Thea for support.

He had thought that someone was rescuing him, but when he saw Natasha using the same method to bring Thea over, he froze.

When Natasha shoved Thea over, the man, Hans, was shocked. At the same time, he seemed to have understood something.

He merely looked at Natasha, unable to bring himself to say a word.

Without uttering a word, Natasha started tying both Thea and Hans together. It was at that moment when Hans came to his senses and admitted, “Yes! That's her! She's the one who paid me and made me do that. It's all her!”

Natasha was unmoved.

Thea looked up exhaustedly when she heard a man speaking beside her. The moment she spotted Hans, she had a bad feeling about it.

With strenuous effort, she lifted her head and fixed her eyes on the person on the speedboat. “Natasha, what exactly are you trying to do? Why are you putting me with this man?”

“What do you think?” Natasha responded with a question.

“You-”

Without waiting for Thea to finish her words, Natasha raised her hand and looked at the time. She then returned her gaze to them and stated coldly, “I hope someone finds you after two days, and I hope both of you will still be alive by then.” With that, she eyed them grimly and spun on her heels.

Seeing her leave, Thea shouted with every last ounce of energy left in her, “Come back, Natasha! Let me go!

Natasha, come back! Natasha...”

All that shouting had used up her energy. She shouted so much that it made her cough her lungs out.

Despite that, Natasha never turned back. She leaped into another speedboat and sailed off.

Thea stared at the leaving speedboat in hopeless despair.

Just you wait, Natasha! I'm going to get my revenge for what happened today!

Just as Natasha had stepped on the shore, tied up the speedboat, and was about to get into her car, a black car pulled over.

Kenneth alighted from the car and hurried over to Natasha.

“Nat!” He approached her, nervously scanning her from head to toe.

“I'm fine. She can't hurt me,” Natasha assured.

Only then did Kenneth heave a sigh of relief. Gazing at her, he asked, “Where is she?” Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Natasha did not respond.

Kenneth eyed her before looking at the vast river. “Nat, did you really—”

“No! I didn't kill her,” Natasha cut him off before he could finish. Her eyes were extremely calm.

Kenneth studied her eyes, wanting to determine if she was telling the truth.

“She doesn't deserve to be killed by me.

Kenneth studied her for some time.

Finally, he said, “You're right. She doesn't deserve it. I should be the one doing it instead.”

Upon hearing that, Natasha cast him a questioning look.

Kenneth glanced around the area and guessed Thea was somewhere in the middle of the river. Just when he was about to head over, Natasha suddenly reached out to grab his hand.

Kenneth breathed, “I was the one who provoked her. I should resolve this on

my own.”

Natasha continued staring at him; she did not doubt his words.

Then again, she could not bring herself to let him kill Thea.

After mulling it over, Natasha said, “Kenneth, I think she has suffered a more terrible fate than death today.”

Kenneth narrowed his eyes.

Right then, Natasha's lips curled into a subtle smile. “I won't stop you if you want to deal with her. You can do whatever you want to her once she's done paying the price.”

Kenneth looked into her dark eyes that looked darker in the night.

For a long time, both of them stared at each other without exchanging a word.

At one point, Natasha noticed a peculiar emotion in his gaze.

“Nat, I'm the reason you took Thea away first, right?” Kenneth asked abruptly.

Natasha was bewildered.

“You did that because you didn't want me to be in a tight spot, didn't you?” asked Kenneth. He had done a lot of thinking on the way there, and that was the only answer that made him nervous and excited at the same time.

Natasha's long eyelashes fluttered. She averted her gaze and replied, “You're thinking too much. I was just too caught up with my emotions.” With that, she walked away without waiting for Kenneth's response.

Kenneth went up and hugged her from behind, causing Natasha to freeze.

The chilly breeze blew against her body, but she was not the slightest bit cold thanks to Kenneth's warm chest that was pressed against her back.

Natasha merely stood there without moving or saying anything.

Kenneth buried his face into her neck, saying each word softly and clearly, “Believe me, Nat. You and the kids are the most important people in my life. Anyone who hurts you will be going against me. So, no matter who it is, I'll never let them off, including Thea.”

Natasha listened attentively to his deep voice while allowing herself to be hugged by him. After some time, she answered, “Mm, I know.”
