You're Out Daddy

Chapter 542

Kenneth stared back at her. However, as soon as he met her eyes, he could not help but step forward

and pull her into his embrace, hugging her tightly.

Natasha's long eyelashes fluttered, for she was taken aback by his sudden actions. Even so, she could

feel him shaking with anxiousness.

“What's wrong? What happened?” asked Natasha.

Only after a long time did Kenneth answer, “Nothing. I just wanted to hug you.”

Upon hearing that, Natasha smiled and let him continue hugging her instead of pushing him away.

Nonetheless, he seemed to have no intention of letting her go even as the seconds ticked by. It didn't

take long for them to attract the passersby's attention, making them turn their heads to look at the

couple.

Natasha did not mind their gazes, but she did not think they should hug each other like that for the rest

of the night.

“Kenneth, more people are going to stare if you don't let me go,” said Natasha.

“I don't care,” responded Kenneth nonchalantly.

“But it's getting hard for me to breathe, too.”

When Kenneth heard that, he finally came to a realization and slowly let her go.

His gaze was filled with guilt as he stared at her.

At the same time, Natasha sensed his odd behavior, albeit not knowing what had happened to him.

“What happened exactly?”

Kenneth noticed her gaze and knew it would be hard to fool her if he did not come up with something

soon.

After pondering for some time, he finally spoke. “It's nothing. I just remembered the past and felt that

I've failed you.”

Eyeing him, Natasha queried, “Didn't you say you regained your memories already?”

“Most of it, yes, but I just remembered some details.”

Upon hearing that, Natasha nodded thoughtfully while gazing at him. “Kenneth, you don't owe me

anything. You lost your memory because of me, so I didn't blame you for anything.”

“But I do. I blame myself for forgetting you, hurting you, and not being by your side when you

encountered all that,” said Kenneth.

“Says who? Weren't you with me when I was in danger at the hospital? You even took several stabs on

my behalf. I remember that moment very clearly. During that time, I felt your presence with me all the

time, as if you never left.”

At the mention of that, Kenneth leaned closer and held her face. “Really?”

Natasha nodded, which put a smile on his face. However, his gaze darkened as he continued boring

into hers.

Natasha returned his gaze as well. For some unknown reason, she found Kenneth's behavior odd that

night.

“Are you planning to stand here like this all night? Those three kiddos are still waiting for us, you

know?” she reminded.

Kenneth immediately looked up. Sure enough, the three children were staring right at them.

The sight of them put a smile on his face.

“Let's go,” prompted Natasha.

Kenneth nodded, and they walked over, naturally slipping their hands into each other's as if they had

practiced that a million times.

Even when the duo returned to their seats, the children's cheeky gaze never left them.

The next moment, Kenneth turned to them and asked, “What is it? Just speak your mind.”

Denise was the first to raise her hand. “I'll go first.”

Hearing that, Kenneth shifted his gaze and gestured for her to speak.

“Daddy, you took advantage of Nat in front of a crowd. Don't you think you should take responsibility for

it?” questioned Denise.

Kenneth nodded after hearing that. “I should.”

“How are you planning to do that?” Denise interrogated.

“What about marrying her?”

“Deal!” Denise accepted the answer in a heartbeat.

Meanwhile, Natasha was dumbfounded. “Does my opinion not matter?”

“Nat, it's hard to find someone as handsome as Daddy. Besides, having someone like him at home will

be a treat for your eyes. So why don't you just take him?” Denise suggested, grinning mischievously.

When Kenneth heard that, he nodded in agreement, whispering, “I don't eat much, I'm good at making

money, and I work hard. So why don't you think about it?”

Natasha frowned. Why do I have a feeling he meant something else when he said he'll work hard?

In the meantime, the three children's gazes darted from Kenneth to Natasha.

After pondering for a moment, Natasha gazed at him and nodded. “Okay. I accept.”

Her answer was out of Kenneth's expectations.

He gawked at her. “Do you mean it?”

Nodding nonchalantly, Natasha answered, “Yes.”

Yet, Kenneth still could not bring himself to believe her words.

After all, he had asked her the question many times, and she never gave him a definite answer. Now

that she had given him one, Kenneth merely thought she was joking.

Despite so, he still felt excited.

“Stop joking. I might think you're for real,” Kenneth said, looking into her eyes.

Natasha chuckled. “Take it for real, then.”

Kenneth's dark eyes narrowed as he stared at her inquisitively.

“Anthony, Benjamin, Denise...” Kenneth spoke.

“Huh?”

“Close your eyes,” instructed Kenneth.

The children froze momentarily, but they quickly closed their eyes as if knowing what Kenneth was

about to do.

Natasha glanced at them and was about to say something when Kenneth suddenly leaned forward and

kissed her, leaving her stunned.

Just then, the children took a peek and grinned when they saw their parents kissing.

It was a domineering and passionate kiss.

Once the kiss ended, Kenneth held Natasha's head gently with his fingers slipping between her hair.

“Nat, I don't care if you're joking or being serious, but I'm going to take that as your final answer. You

won't be able to get rid of me for the rest of your life.”

Natasha pursed her pink lips, the faint smell of tobacco from Kenneth still lingering in her mouth.

She stared at him with a gentle expression that replaced her usual distant look. “So be it. Guess I'll just

have to make do.”

Kenneth, too, cast her an unfathomable gaze.

Unable to hold it in, the children finally giggled.

Only then did Kenneth turn away and glared at them. “What's so funny?”

The children shook their heads in unison.

Feeling helpless, Kenneth muttered, “I shouldn't have brought you kids out. You're just getting in my

way.”

The trio were flabbergasted.

Weren't we of great help to him? How dare he complain that we're getting in his way?

“Huh? Did I hear you right, Daddy?” asked Denise.

Kenneth glanced at her and smiled. “Oh, I wasn't talking about you. I was referring to your brothers.”

Anthony and Benjamin cast Kenneth a baffled look.

What does that mean?

“Why us, Daddy?” asked Anthony.

However, Kenneth said nothing to that.

“Why do I have a feeling that he favors girls more than boys?” Benjamin asked.

“Well, your feeling's not wrong. That's exactly what it is,” stated Kenneth.

His word rendered the boy speechless.

Can't he at least tell a white lie?

The others could not help but laugh when they saw the boys' expressions.

It was a blissful and harmonious moment for the family of five.

Unbeknownst to them, however, they were secretly watched by a pair of eyes in the shadows.
