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

Thalia's behavior and tone were somewhat unusual.

The two had been acting together for so long that Anthony was able to notice it, so he immediately lowered his voice.

Thalia walked to the door and peered outside through the peephole.

Anthony watched from the side. "What's wrong?" he asked softly.

Without uttering another word, Thalia pulled him toward the inside.

Although he wasn't sure what was going on, he could tell from her eyes that things weren't going well.

"What on earth happened? Who's outside?" Anthony asked.

Thalia remained silent, pulling him along as they headed inside.

Upon returning to the room, Thalia immediately pulled out a piece of clothing from her bag and tossed it to him. "Put this on."

Watching as she tossed the clothes over, Anthony furrowed his brows.

"It's bulletproof!" Thalia said to him seriously.

Anthony glanced at her, rarely seeing her with such an expression. Without a word, he picked up the clothes to put them on and asked, "What about you?"

"Don't worry. Ordinary people can't hurt me," Thalia said.

Hearing that, Anthony paused and turned his gaze toward her. "There's just one piece?"

"Yeah."

"Then what about you if I wear it?" As he spoke, Anthony was about to take off his clothes.

Thalia reached out and stopped him. "Don't make a fuss. Just wear it if I tell you to!"

"What about you? You are our primary force. If you're injured, we're all done for!" Anthony said, looking at her.

"Do you think an ordinary person could hurt me?"

"This is no laughing matter." Anthony lowered his voice.

"I'm not joking with you!" Thalia stepped forward, smoothly draping the clothes over him.

"You-"

"Shut up!" Thalia glared at him. "I promised Nat that I would protect you. If anything happens to you, how am I supposed to explain it to her?"

She walked toward the bed and retrieved a weapon from beneath the pillow.

"But Nat also hope you won't take any risks!" Anthony said from behind.

Thalia flashed a smile, turning back to look at him. "If I were to be in danger so easily, wouldn't that mean my title as Darknetz Ace is nothing more than an empty reputation?" Anthony was aware of Thalia's capabilities, yet each peril encountered remained an unknown variable.

He was still somewhat worried. "Who exactly is outside?"

"No one!"

Anthony was confused.

Thalia swept his gaze toward him. "If there's no one around, doesn't that make it even more problematic?"

"But what if that person comes?" Anthony asked.

"I didn't tell that person the room number. I simply told him we would discuss it after he arrived at the hotel."

Anthony instantly understood what was going on.

He looked outside.

Thalia swept her gaze around the room, then focused on a particular spot. Suddenly, she said, "You go hide there first and wait for me!"

"-"

"If you insist on following me, you'll only hold me back!"

Anthony knew that this was not the time to be willful. He nodded and said, "All right, I'll wait for you. But no matter what, your safety comes first!" "Don't worry. I cherish my life a lot more now!" Thalia said, her smiling expression fading as she looked at Anthony. "Don't come out until I return!" Anthony nodded.

Thalia gave Anthony a meaningful glance, then proceeded to walk outside.

After watching her leave, Anthony finally turned around and hid himself.

Thalia, gripping her weapon, gradually made her way toward the door.

The doorbell had chimed intermittently before descending into silence. She walked to the door and once again peered through the peephole to check the outside. There was still no one around.

Thalia's eyes narrowed slightly. She knew this was a tactic.

When she thought of Anthony in the room and his safety, she knew she had to open this door.

She rested her hand on the doorknob and was just about to open the door when suddenly, her phone chimed, breaking the silence.

Thalia picked up her phone. It was a message from Anthony, featuring a screenshot from a hallway surveillance video.

She saw the people standing on either side of the door frame.

In the next moment, she put away her phone and gradually opened the door.

Thalia glanced at both sides of the door frame, a smile playing at the corners of her mouth. The next second, she walked straight out. However, no sooner had she stepped out than a gun was abruptly pressed against her temple.

"It's been a long time, Ms. Thalia Jacoway," a man sneered as he looked at her.

Thalia turned around, her gaze landing on the person. "You are?"

"What, you don't recognize me already?"

Thalia narrowed her eyes. "I'm sorry. I truly don't recognize you!"

"It's all right. You'll remember soon!" With that, the person signaled with a glance, and the others moved forward to seize her.

In the next moment, Thalia, filled with rage, fiercely kicked the opponent right in his vital parts.

Seeing that, the others shot at Thalia. However, as if she had anticipated it, she slightly tilted her head and the bullets ended up hitting somewhere else. With a swift roundhouse kick, Thalia sent the man tumbling to the ground.

"Kill her!" the leader shouted at that moment.

Thalia didn't linger. After giving those few people a thorough beating, she ran straight outside.

"Get her! You must get her!" the man shouted.

Following that, several people immediately pursued Thalia.

Anthony held his phone, watching everything that was happening outside through the surveillance, his palms breaking out in sweat.

This was the first time he had seen Thalia take action against an enemy. Her maneuvers were smooth, almost as if she was toying with her opponents.

Even so, Anthony was still consumed with worry.

He had absolutely no idea who these people were, nor did he know how many had actually arrived.

As he pondered, an idea struck him.

Thalia headed straight for the hotel exit.

Those people had also pursued all the way out.

Outside, there was a crowd. It would be difficult for those people to take action, and they were far from the hotel and Anthony. With this distance, Thalia felt no hesitation to make her move.

She finally stopped in a place where

people were scarce. She turned around to look at the people who had been relentlessly pursuing her Some were panting heavily from exhaustion, while others, like her, remained composed and expressionless.

A sharp glint flashed in Thalia's eyes

as she looked at those people.

"You're quite persistent in your pursuit. Since you insist on courting

death

by chasing me, I'll make you regret this!"

As she spoke, she swiftly pulled out a dagger. Seeing this, the opponents didn't hesitate any longer and immediately started shooting at her.

Thalia did a flip, stepped on the wall, and soared into the air to evade the bullets. She then charged straight toward a person, and the person fell to the ground instantly after taking a hit.

Taking the gun from that person's hand, she turned around and fired a few shots, instantly bringing down three people.

At that moment, a young man was watching from not far behind. He was taken aback by Thalia's swift movements.

The two sides were engaged in a

fierce battle. At that moment, just as

one person was about to launch an

attack on Thalia from behind, the young man immediately stood up and charged toward Thalia

"Be careful!" he exclaimed.
