You're Out Daddy

Chapter 325

“Tony, Tony!”

“How is he still sleeping so soundly?”

“What was he up to last night?” Denise asked.

Just as Anthony was dead asleep, Benjamin and Denise's voices sounded in his ears.

“Quiet!” Anthony complained with a frown.

“But the sun's already setting, Tony. Are you planning to sleep for an entire day?” Denise asked again

after hearing Tony's complaint.

Her question had Anthony frown even harder before he slowly opened his eyes. Darkness was slowly

taking over the sunlight, just as Denise said.

He picked up his watch to look at the time, realizing that it was already five in the afternoon and that he

had slept for a very long time.

Denise crawled up to the side of his bed and asked, “What were you up to last night, Tony? Why are

you so tired?”

Speaking of this, Anthony failed to hold back the smile waiting to crack open on his face.

“This smile... Hmm... There's definitely something going on!” Benjamin stated as he stared at Anthony.

It was then Anthony finally got up lazily from his bed. He was also smiling with his eyes narrowed. “I'm

actually afraid of telling you. I'm worried that both of you might get jealous.”

Benjamin and Denise exchanged a glance immediately after hearing Anthony's reply. They knew it.

Anthony was up to something behind their backs!

“Jealous? What could make us jealous?” Benjamin asked.

“That's right!” Denise backed her brother up.

Anthony, however, remained silent while keeping a smile on his face.

“So you're not going to tell us?” Benjamin raised his eyebrows and turned his vision toward Denise

after seeing how Anthony was still trying to keep them in the dark. As the two of them exchanged a

glance, they, too, were seemingly conveying something through their glances.

Anthony was still sitting on the bed. He pressed his lips together as the little boy fell back into the sweet

memories of whatever he did last night.

“It seems like I'm going to have to use that move!” Denise reached out her two little hands toward

Anthony after seeing the look on his face and tried to tickle him.

Anthony was a brave boy, one that feared nothing but Natasha and being tickled.

Hence, as soon as he saw Denise trying to tickle him, his eyes widened immediately, and he ducked

out of instinct.

“No, no, no!” The sleepiness in Anthony was gone right away.

“Are you going to tell us now?” Denise smiled back at him.

“All right, all right! I'll tell you,” Anthony gave in.

Benjamin then said, “Speak.”

“I'm being serious and not going to speak. I'm doing this for your own good!” Anthony acted like he was

left with no choice.

Seeing this, Benjamin wasted no time. He gave Denise a signal, and the little girl jumped onto Anthony

again.

This time, Anthony finally felt scared, and that had him immediately saying, “Okay, I'll tell you.”

“This is your last chance. You'll be facing our wrath if you try to do anything funny again!” Benjamin

threatened.

Standing beside him was Denise, who also nodded in agreement.

At this moment, Anthony knew that if he tried to make them yield using his identity as their elder

brother, he would be punished by them for sure. Hence, after considering the odds, he decided to give

in.

“Uh... It's actually nothing. Nat and I just talked for the entire night,” Anthony confessed. The cheeky

smile was still on his face as he dwelled on the sweet memories.

Hearing this, the other two exchanged another glance.

“What did you talk about?” Denise asked.

“Everything. From some important things like the philosophies of life to little things like matters in our

daily lives. The most important thing is that Nat now knows our secret.”

The confession had Benjamin and Denise caught off guard for a second, for they definitely did not see

this coming.

“Y-You confessed?” Benjamin looked at him in surprise.

“Sort of.” Anthony then explained what had happened to them last night.

His explanation had Benjamin and Denise left voiceless for a brief moment.

“What's wrong? Aren't you supposed to be happy now that we don't have to do our things secretly

behind Nat's back anymore and worrying that she will find out?” Anthony asked.

“We don't know if she will treat us differently compared to you! We haven't confessed, you know?”

Denise asked.

“Don't worry. Nat didn't look angry at all,” Anthony comforted her.

It was then did the two finally feel relieved.

“But this is not what I wanted to tell you!” Anthony said before he suddenly moved closer to them. “I

also learned a new secret last night!”

“What secret?” Denise blinked her curious eyes as she asked.

On the side, Benjamin, too, looked at Anthony in the same fashion.

Yet, Anthony could not refrain from being secretive again when he saw the spiking curiosity in them.

Without a doubt, Anthony's behavior left Benjamin speechless once more, and Benjamin did not plan

on letting Anthony have his way.

Hence, Benjamin gestured Denise immediately. “Denise, go ahead!”

“I got it!”

Anthony yielded immediately as soon as he saw Denise reaching her hands out again. “Stop! I'll tell

you!”

“If you keep this up, we will show you no mercy!” Denise threatened.

Anthony looked right back at them and said, “When I was talking to Nat last night, I found out that Nat

loved Daddy since they were still young!”

The other two were dumbfounded by this, leading Benjamin to ask, “Nat told you about this?”

His question was confirmed by a nod from Anthony.

“Are you sure that was not a dream?” Denise asked, conflicted with disbelief and joy, to which Anthony

reached out and tapped on Denise's head. “Watch what you're saying.”

“Come on! I just needed a confirmation!” Denise grumbled cutely as she scratched her head.

“Do you think I'd deliberately lie to you all?” Anthony asked her back.

In fact, among the three, Anthony was the one that favored Kenneth the least, which also made it

unlikely that he would joke about this.

“So you are saying that Daddy and Mommy fell in love when they were young?” Denise immediately

came up with a guess.

“I guess so. It's just that Daddy lost his memories after saving Nat while she still remembered

everything clearly, which is also why she married Daddy,” Anthony continued explaining. As he spoke,

he heartbrokenly recalled the many insufferable events that Natasha had been through.

“Either way, Nat is still the one who suffered the most!” Benjamin said, “She is the only one who

remembers all the sweet memories.”

Denise added, “I, too, thought that Nat was a person who did not know love and romance. I really didn't

expect to hear such a sensitive side of Nat. She's so cool!”

This time, it was her turn to become the center of attention as the two boys looked at her.

Yet, she did not flinch. Instead, she smiled. “Don't you agree with me? I mean, Daddy had forgotten

about Nat, and she still agreed to marry him nevertheless. Don't you think that Nat's bravery is really

cool?”

In the end, Denise's focus point was entirely different from theirs.

Meanwhile, seeing how the two remained silent, Denise continued, “Come on. Why are you guys

behaving like that? You should know that this is a good thing. What is done is done, and the past can't

be altered no matter what. What matters the most right now is what we can do. Think carefully. If they

are together for good, then our family will be reunited! Getting Daddy and Mommy back together is of

utmost importance right now!”

As this was brought up, Anthony said, “But I've already talked to Nat, and she doesn't seem to plan on

getting back with Daddy.”

This came like a bolt from the blue just as Denise had already been brewing some plans in her mind,

causing her to frown. “What? But why?”

“Nat says she wants to give Daddy some tests.”

When Anthony said that, he had a similar frown as Denise.

“But I thought they had been through a lot of challenges together. Is there even a need for that?”

Denise's reply suggested that she was confused by Natasha's decision.

At this moment, Benjamin looked at Anthony with understanding flickering in his eyes. “You're thinking

what I'm thinking, right? It's all but Nat's excuse, isn't it?”

“Obviously!” Anthony replied.

On the other hand, Denise was kept in the dark, and she said, “Can you please be straightforward?”

Anthony then took in a deep breath and said, “This is only my guess. Nat's been acting weird lately, but

I can't tell what is wrong with her. It just feels like she is keeping something to herself.”

On the other hand, Denise rolled her starry-looking eyes before she exclaimed as if she had figured out

something, “Could it be that Nat...”
