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

Chapter 983 A Man Needs Guidance To Succeed

After eating, Anthony returned to the ward.

Natasha was still by Kenneth's side, appearing calm, as if Kenneth was merely asleep.

Seeing the situation, Anthony walked over. “Nat.”

Upon hearing the sound, Natasha turned her head to look at him. “Have you eaten yet?”

Anthony nodded. “Hmm.”

At this moment, Natasha looked him up and down. “After you've eaten, go back and take a bath, change your clothes, and get some rest. I'm here with your dad, so there's no need to worry.”

“I'm not tired.”

“Your eyes are so red. How can you possibly not be tired?” Natasha asked.

At that moment, Anthony's gaze turned to the person lying on the bed. Then, his eyebrows furrowed slightly. “But Daddy...”

“Don't worry. Compared to you, your dad needs me more. It doesn't matter whether you're here or not!” Natasha said directly.

“How can you take care of Dad all by yourself?”

“Who said I'm on my own? I may not be strong enough, but aren't there others too? So, just relax. Everything will be fine,” Natasha comforted him as she looked at him.

Upon hearing this, Anthony nodded. “I understand.”

“Let's go,” Natasha said directly.

Anthony nodded. He was about to leave, when suddenly, he remembered something. He stopped in his tracks, turned around, and looked at Natasha. “Nat, Great-grandpa just called me.”

Speaking of which, Natasha paused in the act of fluffing Kenneth's quilt. Without turning around, she simply asked in a low voice, “What did he say on the phone?”

“He said he couldn't reach Dad, and asked Dad to call him back when he's free,” Anthony said.

Natasha nodded, her voice still soft. “Alright, I got it.”

Anthony glanced at the retreating figure of Natasha, and said no more. Then, he turned to walk away.

As the door closed, Natasha looked at the person lying down, then whispered, “Kenneth, did you hear that? Grandpa is also waiting for you. Don't you plan to wake up?”

The person on the bed remained silent.

Upon thinking about this, Natasha picked up her phone, looked at Liam's number, hesitated for a moment, but still dialed the butler's number. The call was answered instantly on the other end, “Hello, Mrs. Hamilton.”

“Dan,” Natasha lowered her voice. “I'm sorry to disturb you so late. Is Grandpa asleep?”

“No, he just took some medicine and haven't slept yet,” Dan replied softly.

“But Grandpa...”

Just as Natasha was about to say something, a voice from the other end of the phone interrupted, “Is that you, Nat? Hand it over, hand it over, let me take the call.”

As he spoke, he reached for the incoming call. Once he had the phone in hand, he immediately asked, “Nat, what's the matter? Why are you calling me so late?”

Hearing how he called her 'Nat', Natasha couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness. She then simply switched her phone to speaker mode and placed it next to Kenneth's ear, and continued, “No, I just heard from Anthony that you were looking for Kenneth. He's busy at the moment, so I'm returning your call,” Natasha said lightly.

“Oh... I see!” The voice of Liam clearly sounded a bit disappointed. “There is nothing much. I just thought of this rascal and felt like giving him a scolding suddenly!” Liam said with a sheepish smile.

Natasha glanced at the person on the bed, her clear eyes closing slightly. “Alright, I understand. I will pass on your message to him.” NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

“Also, could you please lecture him for me? He keeps saying he'll come back, but I haven't seen him yet. Does he think he can fool this old man?” asked Liam.

Speaking of which, Natasha said, “I'm sorry, Grandpa. It's really not Kenneth's fault. I have some things to deal with here, and he's just accompanying me. That's why we're delayed. Don't worry, we'll be back soon,” Natasha said.

Upon hearing it was about Natasha, Liam immediately asked, “Your matter, what matter? Is it troublesome?”

“No trouble at all, and everything's been taken care of. Besides, with him around, what could possibly be troublesome?” Natasha said, teasingly.

Upon hearing these words, Liam finally breathed a sigh of relief. “That's more like it. At least he's sensible. Remember this, Nat, men need to be disciplined. Just as jade must be polished before it becomes a gem. A man won't grow up without guidance.”

Natasha gently laughed. “Mmm, I understand.”

“Feel free to leave any troublesome matters to him to handle. That's what a man should take on. As for you, just eat, drink, and be at ease,” said Liam.

“Alright, I understand. I will do just that.”

“If he ever bullies you, call me anytime. I'll give him a piece of my mind,” said Liam.

“Alright, I understand, Grandpa.”

Listening to the old man's defending voice, Natasha's eyes were brimming with tears.

Regardless of the truth, the vast distance between them only intensified their longing for each other.

At this point, Liam suddenly fell silent for a moment after saying quite a bit. Then, with a meaningful tone, he said, “Your grandfather and I would like to know when you might be coming back. We miss you dearly at home. If we have a timeframe, it gives us something to look forward to.”

Upon hearing this, Natasha glanced at the person on the bed, then spoke, “Half a month at most.”

“That long?”

“Um, there are still some matters to deal with here.”

“Alright then. Even though I have no idea what you're all up to, at least now I have a specific time to look forward to. I'll be waiting at home for your return, along with my precious great-grandson!” said Liam.

“Right, Old Mr. Hamilton, how is my grandfather doing now?” Natasha asked.

“Other than his daily nagging about you, everything is great. Just like before, his chess skills are still as terrible as ever.”

Upon hearing this, Natasha couldn't help but laugh. She could even imagine the scene of them playing chess in her mind.

“Old Mr. Hamilton, please take good care of each other. We'll be back soon,” Natasha responded.

“Alright, you guys go ahead with your work. Let me know before you return, so I can arrange a welcome for you,” said Liam.

“Understood.”

“Alright, hang up then.”

“Mm-hmm.”

Natasha was looking at her phone, initially planning to hang up only after the other party did. However, as she stared at her phone screen, it seemed that the other side had no intention of hanging up either.

Upon seeing the situation, Natasha finally picked up her phone again.

“Grandpa?” Natasha asked.

“You hang up first!” Liam immediately said from the other end.

Strangely, these words filled Natasha's eyes with tears again. “Mm,” she responded, before reluctantly hanging up the phone.

Staring at the phone, she was lost in deep thought for a long time. Then, she suddenly made a decision.

She was determined to take him back with her regardless of whether Kenneth could wake up in half a month.

With that thought in mind, she turned her gaze towards Kenneth. “If it were you, you would do the same, wouldn't you?”

With this in mind, Natasha spoke up, “If you don't respond, I'll take it as your agreement.”

After speaking, Natasha put away her phone and set it aside. She continued to keep him company.

Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door. Natasha looked over her shoulder and saw a figure standing not too far away...
