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

Chapter 1021 Can Be Proved

Kyle understood clearly that Anthony was not a person who lacks discretion.

Even if the boy really did release the virus, he would surely hit the brakes at the last moment.

However, Kyle never imagined that Anthony was merely bluffing.

In fact, he fell for the bluff.

However, that also indirectly proved that Anthony was a reliable and capable individual.

If Anthony was joking, then that was all to it. He wouldn't really do anything outrageous.

With those thoughts in mind, Kyle felt both deep emotion and comfort. Well, I brought that upon myself. I brought him in, so I guess I'm the one who has to deal with him.

Watching Anthony intently staring at the computer screen, Kyle changed the subject and asked, “Have you seen it?”

“If I had, I wouldn't be so calm right now,” Anthony said without lifting his head.

“Like I said. Those things are not really valuable,” Kyle stated.

“Why keep the photo if it's worthless?” Anthony suddenly looked up and asked.

Kyle was taken aback. “I just happened to have some on my computer. I never got around to deleting them. When I saw your reward offer online, I thought I'd give them to you!”

After pondering for a moment, Anthony looked at him and asked, “Didn't you guys retrieve the surveillance footage initially?”

“We did.”

“Where's the footage, then?” Anthony immediately asked.

“It's busted.”

“Busted?”

“Yeah. I also wanted to go and see what exactly happened at that time. However, the hotel staff said that the surveillance footage were broken on the day of the incident, so there was no footage. What you see now is what I managed to find, but unfortunately, there's nothing of value.” Kyle said to him leisurely.

Anthony listened, his palm-sized face filled with confusion, “Is it really such a coincidence?”

“It's not a coincidence or accident. It's sabotage,” Kyle whispered.

“Sabotage?”

“That's correct.”

Anthony furrowed his brows. “Don't you find this matter quite strange?”

“What's so strange about it?” Kyle retorted, “Is it odd for sabotage to happen?”

“Isn't it?” Anthony asked.

“Then why don't you consider that maybe your father is the one who did this...” Kyle asked.

Upon hearing that, Anthony sneered, “If it's my dad, then he has even less reason to do so. He personally killed Holden's girlfriend. Why would he intentionally sabotage the surveillance footage?” Anthony asked, looking at him.

Upon hearing that, Kyle was taken aback.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

That statement seemed to hold some truth.

However, he still argued, “Perhaps he was afraid of being condemned, so he deliberately sought someone to wreck the footage—”

“Why didn't he destroy it the day before, then? Why only after the incident? Besides, people had already witnessed it. What's the point of destroying the footage? Also, didn't he deny that he was the one who killed her? Why would he be afraid of others finding out?”

Looking at Anthony, Kyle was suddenly stunned silent.

After going through that round of argument, he realized that his own reasoning was somewhat shaky. On the contrary, Anthony's words indeed made some sense.

As he was hesitating, Benjamin, who was standing by his side, spoke up. “Even though Kenneth is my father, and my words may seem biased in his favor, I genuinely think that what my brother said makes more sense. There's no need for my father to go the extra mile.”

Kyle looked at him, his brows furrowed in concern.

“If the person who killed Holden's girlfriend isn't Daddy, then it must be someone else. Why this person did it and what their purpose was, no one knows. However, I believe, as long as you think carefully and investigate further, you will definitely find the answer,” Benjamin said to them.

Anthony listened and nodded. “Yes, that's right.”

“So many years have passed, though. Where do we even start looking?” wondered Kyle.

“After all these years, haven't we still identified the problem?” Anthony retorted.

Kyle looked at him, his face tense. “Yes, I admit that some of these things are a bit far-fetched, but they can't be used as evidence to say that Kenneth didn't do it. Even if it's superfluous, it can't prove that he didn't do it!”

Anthony knew that expecting Kyle to accept and believe all that at once was somewhat unrealistic.

Heck, even Anthony wouldn't necessarily believe what people insist was the truth.

With that thought, Anthony lifted his gaze, staring at Kyle intently, “Didn't you say it yourself? You shot and injured my father. If the scar is at where you said it is when I check, I'll have nothing to say. However, if you're wrong...”

Kyle pursed his lips, understanding what Anthony meant.

“I was the one who shot him, and I'm certain I didn't miss. If you can't find it, then it means there's something wrong with this situation!”

Anthony looked at him. “I hold onto your word.”

Kyle nodded.

“I will prove it to you!” Anthony enunciated.

“I'm really looking forward to it,” Kyle said.

At that moment, he actually hoped that it was all a misunderstanding. That way, it would save him a lot of trouble and difficult issues.

At that moment, Benjamin, who was standing to the side, spoke up/ “Have you ever considered that there might be a conspiracy behind all this if it weren't for Daddy...”

“That's a story for another time. For me, right now, nothing is more important than this matter,” Anthony said pensively.

As long as his father and Holden were not in a hostile relationship, then no matter how grand the conspiracy, he could still bear it.

Only in that matter, Anthony truly felt somewhat helpless.

Benjamin listened and nodded. He understood Anthony because they were on the same side.

“Don't blame me for being a wet blanket, but it's best not to be overly optimistic,” Kyle said to them.

Sometimes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

Even if there was an issue, Kyle still didn't want them to harbor an overly optimistic attitude.

So far, those were merely their speculations. Perhaps, the boys were just overthinking it.

Even though they really hoped that there was something wrong with that matter, Kyle knew all too well how crushing it was to be disappointed.

Watching them, Kyle still held a deep affection for them. Previously his feelings toward the boys were of admiration and friendship between men. At that moment, due to the boys' ages, he felt an additional sense of fondness and affection.

After all, who wouldn't like such amazing children?

As Kyle was observing them deep in thought, Anthony lifted his gaze, looking at him with unwavering eyes. “I have confidence in this matter.”

Kyle nodded. “Ok, as long as you're happy!”

Worried that the two might start arguing again, Benjamin, who was standing by, spoke up. “So, what should we do about Holden now?”

“Let's keep it a secret for now,” Anthony and Kyle spoke in unison.

Then, they glanced at each other, but neither of them said a word.

Benjamin looked on, nodding with amusement. “All right, it seems you've all made up your minds. In that case, can we move on to the next topic?”

“Another matter? What matter?” Kyle asked, looking at him.

“About Denise, my sister's matter,” Benjamin said.

Kyle looked at the boy, his eyes narrowing slightly.
