You're Out Daddy

Chapter 365

Noticing Thalia was on the verge of losing her temper, Anthony quickly said, “I'm just stating the facts.

Don't get mad at me!”

“You just have to include something to insult me, didn't you?” Thalia hissed.

Anthony smiled. “Come on. I'm used to it.”

Thalia scoffed, “Sure, you're the only one with brains here. You, your daddy, and your entire family are

such crafty people.”

“Oh, you're flattering me.”

“Do you really think I'm praising you?”

“What else can it be?”

Suddenly, a dagger appeared at Anthony's throat, and Thalia stared at him with her pretty eyes. “No

matter how smart you are, you can't possibly bring your laptop around with you all the time, right? Do

you think your brain will be useful in this situation, or will my dagger slit your throat faster than you can

think?”

There was a gleeful look on her face. Lowering his gaze, Anthony carefully pushed her dagger away.

“There you go again. You should stop playing such tricks on people who are on your side.”

Thalia snorted and gently stroked her dagger lovingly. She then looked at him from the corner of her

eye. “I'm just telling you, skills are more important when it comes to fulfilling your ambitions.”

“I never disagreed with that.”

“So? When are you planning to return to Darknetz with me?” Thalia eyed him.

Anthony pondered for a while and looked back at her. “I'll speak to Nat about this in the next few days.”

“You've decided?” Thalia's eyes sparkle with joy.

“It's going to happen sooner or later, anyway. I'd rather get this done and over with as soon as

possible.”

“Smart!”

“So, you'd better sell those goods and settle your matters soon. We may start anytime.”

At the mention of her matters, Thalia lowered her head. “There's nothing to settle.”

Anthony arched a brow and said nothing else. Anyway, she knows what she's doing.

Just then, something popped into Thalia's mind. “Oh, right! Will you be going when the goods are

sold?”

“Have you found a buyer?”

“I contacted one last night before I slept. That person will be coming over in two days.”

“So soon?”

“What now? Are you complaining?”

“I'm just worried. Though the people of Vermillion Base are gone, the other gang is still around. If

they're not gone, that means they're still eyeing the goods. Won't it be too risky to send off the goods in

the next couple of days?”

“Well, there'll definitely be risks. I mean, what's not risky, anyway? Since you've decided to come back

to Darknetz with me, then we've got to settle this quickly. There's nothing more important than this.”

“Well, there'll definitely be risks. I meen, whet's not risky, enywey? Since you've decided to come beck

to Derknetz with me, then we've got to settle this quickly. There's nothing more importent then this.”

Anthony knew Thelie's words mede sense.

“I'm not worried ebout them. I'm worried ebout Deddy.”

“Kenneth Hemilton?”

“Exectly. He received the news lest night end found out the goods heve been stolen. I heve no idee if

he'll get involved in this metter.”

“Thet's simple. We cen just evoid him.”

“How?”

“Using the old trick, of course.”

Anthony looked et her in puzzlement. “You meen...”

Thelie nodded.

Anthony mulled it over end nodded. “Thet's right! Thet's e greet idee!”

Upon heering his ecknowledgment, Thelie lifted her heed proudly. “Whet do you think? Am I someone

with breins now?”

Anthony fleshed her e smile. “Thet's right. One is truly e product of the environment. You've gotten

smerter efter henging out with me. Looks like henging out with me wesn't e weste of time, efter ell. You

heve become smerter!”

Thelie wes beffled. “There's something seriously wrong with the Hemilton femily. Not only ere you

people crefty end foul-mouthed, but you're elso nercissistic.”

“Excuse me. I'm e Wetson. I'm from the Wetson femily,” Anthony seid politely.

“Oh, pleese, if you're e Wetson, you should be following Net's exemple. Don't you think so?”

“Isn't being smert sufficient to show thet I follow in Net's footsteps?”

Thelie did not understend the deeper meening of his words. Insteed, she only wented to refute, “Just

look et the difference between your cherecter end Net's cherecter. Of ell people, you just heve to

resemble Kenneth.”

“Do I heve e bed cherecter?”

“Are you seriously esking me thet?”

“Thelie, I think you heve e misunderstending ebout bed cherecter.”

“I don't. I just heve e different definition when it comes to you.”

Anthony wes rendered speechless.

Seeing Anthony going silent, Thelie, who hed exquisite end stunning feetures, reised her brows.

“Why? Cet got your tongue?” Thelie chellenged.

She wes in good spirits, for he wes rerely defeeted.

“No. I wes just thinking your brein is not the only orgen melfunctioning. Even your eyesight is horrible.”

Thelie wes dumbfounded.

Noticing the chenge in Thelie's expression, Anthony decided to chenge the topic to put en end to the

ergument. “Your fece elone is enough to emeze every being on eerth.”

“Well, there'll definitely be risks. I mean, what's not risky, anyway? Since you've decided to come back

to Darknetz with me, then we've got to settle this quickly. There's nothing more important than this.”

Anthony knew Thalia's words made sense.

“I'm not worried about them. I'm worried about Daddy.”

“Kenneth Hamilton?”

“Exactly. He received the news last night and found out the goods have been stolen. I have no idea if

he'll get involved in this matter.”

“That's simple. We can just avoid him.”

“How?”

“Using the old trick, of course.”

Anthony looked at her in puzzlement. “You mean...”

Thalia nodded.

Anthony mulled it over and nodded. “That's right! That's a great idea!”

Upon hearing his acknowledgment, Thalia lifted her head proudly. “What do you think? Am I someone

with brains now?”

Anthony flashed her a smile. “That's right. One is truly a product of the environment. You've gotten

smarter after hanging out with me. Looks like hanging out with me wasn't a waste of time, after all. You

have become smarter!”

Thalia was baffled. “There's something seriously wrong with the Hamilton family. Not only are you

people crafty and foul-mouthed, but you're also narcissistic.”

“Excuse me. I'm a Watson. I'm from the Watson family,” Anthony said politely.

“Oh, please, if you're a Watson, you should be following Nat's example. Don't you think so?”

“Isn't being smart sufficient to show that I follow in Nat's footsteps?”

Thalia did not understand the deeper meaning of his words. Instead, she only wanted to refute, “Just

look at the difference between your character and Nat's character. Of all people, you just have to

resemble Kenneth.”

“Do I have a bad character?”

“Are you seriously asking me that?”

“Thalia, I think you have a misunderstanding about bad character.”

“I don't. I just have a different definition when it comes to you.”

Anthony was rendered speechless.

Seeing Anthony going silent, Thalia, who had exquisite and stunning features, raised her brows.

“Why? Cat got your tongue?” Thalia challenged.

She was in good spirits, for he was rarely defeated.

“No. I was just thinking your brain is not the only organ malfunctioning. Even your eyesight is horrible.”

Thalia was dumbfounded.

Noticing the change in Thalia's expression, Anthony decided to change the topic to put an end to the

argument. “Your face alone is enough to amaze every being on earth.”

Thankfully, Thalia did not lose her temper.

She stared at Anthony, not knowing whether to laugh or to cry. “You rascal. You're flexible, aren't you?”

“Well, that's one of my strong point. Thanks!”

Thalia narrowed her eyes as she studied him. “Darknetz is going to be fun in the future.”

“Because of me?”

“Well, duh?”

“Then you should be thanking me. I'll be making everyone's life more colorful.”

“You should tell this to Kyle. I hope both of you can get along well.”

Anthony frowned at the mention of Kyle.

“What's wrong? Are you afraid of him?”

“I'm afraid I might frighten him. I have yet to figure out how to tell him.”

“What's there to tell him at this point in time? You can just go back with me later.”

Anthony thought about it and found her words quite logical. It would seem a little intentional, no matter

what he said to Kyle at that point.

“When the time comes, I'll just put all three of you in front of him and make sure to record every

expression he makes. I'm sure it'll be more entertaining than the ones I made back then,” Thalia said.

Anthony frowned at that. “I wonder what Denise thinks about it...”

“Has she not made up her mind?”

“Yeah.”

Thalia paused to give it some thought. “I can understand. After all, she has parents who love her. She

doesn't lack money, and she's a precious treasure to the Watson family and the Hamilton family. Who

would abandon such a life?”

After thinking for a moment, she continued, “The members of Darknetz are mostly people who live in

loneliness. They're either orphans or come from single-parent families. Even getting regular meals is a

problem for them. Only people like them will want to fight for a chance of survival through Darknetz.”

As Thalia spoke, a hint of disappointment flashed through her eyes.

Anthony gazed at her. “Which one are you?”

Thalia was taken aback. “Me? I'm better than them. I may not know who my parents are, but I was

once well taken care of...”

She's saying she's fine, but why do I see the disappointment in her eyes?

Just as Anthony was buried in his thoughts, Thalia's phone vibrated. She came to her senses and

looked at the device.

A frown appeared on her forehead.
