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

Chapter 1060 Dragged You Down

Natasha had no intention of hiding anything.

Whenever Liam asked, she never even thought of shirking responsibility.

Just as she decided to come back.

Liam had the right to know about Kenneth's situation, as well as the right to be informed about what had happened.

Looking at him, she said, “I can tell you, but no matter what I say, you can be angry with me, blame me, but please, take care of your health.”

The sparkle once present in Liam's eyes was gone. In a low voice, he said, “Go ahead, speak.”

So, she told him exactly what had happened.

The story was long, and Natasha didn't make it brief. Liam listened quietly. Even though he hadn't witnessed some of the events himself, hearing about them made his heart ache in waves.

After finishing the story, Natasha looked at Liam. “That's the entire story.”

Just as Liam was about to say something, his gaze suddenly fell on the diamond ring on Natasha's hand, and his eyes darkened slightly.

“This is...” Liam stared at her diamond ring, asking in astonishment.

Following his gaze, Natasha looked at the diamond ring on her hand. Upon seeing it, her eyes slightly narrowed.

“Is it Kenneth?” asked the Liam.

Natasha didn't deny it. She nodded, looking at the engagement ring. Scenes from that night surfaced in her mind, and the corners of her mouth lifted slightly as she said, “Yes. He proposed to me.”

Liam's emotions became even more complicated.

Natasha regained her senses and looked up at him. “Old Mr. Hamilton, I know that even though you often scold Kenneth, you love him more than anyone else. I also understand that this incident has greatly affected you. I don't expect you to forgive me, but I just hope you can allow me to stay by his side and take care of him.”

Upon hearing that, Liam looked at her and asked, “Are you still going to take care of him?”

“Yes!” Natasha answered decisively.

Liam looked at her. “You're still young. You really don't need to waste your time on Kenneth.”

Upon hearing that, Natasha chuckled lightly. “Old Mr. Hamilton, you know how I feel about him. Apart from him, there has never been anyone else in my heart. I was ready to marry him without hesitation and still am now!”

Liam looked at her, suddenly at a loss for words.

Indeed, everything had happened because of Natasha.

He indeed had reasons to blame her and vent all his dissatisfaction on her.

However, upon seeing that diamond ring, Liam knew that if he were to do that, Kenneth would probably be so anxious that he'd jump right out of bed to confront him.

Liam narrowed his eyes, the emotions churning within him becoming more complicated.

“Old Mr. Hamilton, I can choose not to live here. I can also stay out of your sight—”

“Nat, do you have any regrets?” Liam suddenly asked.

The phrase “Nat” made Natasha slightly taken aback.

Looking up at Liam, there was a hint of surprise in her eyes.

“What's the matter?” asked Liam.

Natasha regained her senses and then shook her head. “I have no regrets!”

Liam took a deep breath. “You've said it yourself. He might wake up at any moment, or he might never wake up. You'll likely be stuck here for the rest of your life if you choose to do this!”

Natasha's eyes held a profound sense of sorrow as if there was no greater sorrow than a withering heart. “In this world, the ones who loved me most have all left one after the other. If even Kenneth doesn't wake up, then what's the point of my life?”

Liam looked at her, unsure of what to say.

Natasha realized that her words were too sorrowful, so she stopped abruptly. Looking at him, she added, “Moreover, if he doesn't wake up, you and the three kids are my responsibility. I am obligated to take care of you all!”

Listening to her words, Liam nodded. “Have you made up your mind?”

“Yes!”

“All right!” He nodded. “I promise you!”

Upon hearing that, Natasha was slightly taken aback, “Y-You really agree?”

“I have one more request!” said Liam.

“What?” Natasha asked.

“From now on, you need to take care not only of Kenneth but also the entire Hamilton family!” said Liam.

Natasha didn't understand what Liam meant, but she had made up her mind before coming. No matter what the request was, she had no reason to refuse.

Without a second thought, she nodded immediately, “All right. I agree!”

Liam looked at her. He had watched her grow up and knew her nature better than anyone else. She was never one for pretense and always did as she said.

Throughout the conversation, there was no sign of evasion or shirking responsibility when she explained the ins and outs of the matter. Her gaze was clear and resolute.

Knowing her nature so well, Liam couldn't even find a reason to blame her even if she wanted to.

After everything was settled, Liam looked at her and said, “All right, it's getting late. You should go and rest now!”

Upon hearing that, Natasha looked at him. “Old Mr. Hamilton...” She hesitated momentarily before finally asking, “You're not mad at me?”

Liam looked at her with a pale smile. “Nat, even though you and Kenneth have divorced and are now back together, you've always been my daughter-in-law in my heart. This choice has never changed. So, it's only right and proper for Kenneth to protect you when you're in danger. There's no reason to blame you if something happens to him while he's protecting you!”

Natasha's eyes instantly welled up with tears after she heard that.

She had braced herself for Liam's furious roar, but she never expected the outcome to be like that.

“Kenneth has been without his parents since he was a child, and it was I who personally laid them to rest. I don't expect him to take care of me in my old age or see me to my end, but I also don't want to have to lay him to rest, too...”

Tears fell from the corner of Natasha's eyes.

She understood that feeling all too well.

Terence had experienced that same fate. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Perhaps I did plenty of evil things in my past life to deserve such torment in this one. I must be here to pay off karmic debt. What else can I do? I can only endure. As long as there's a chance for Kenneth to wake up, I will not give up!” said Liam.

“Old Mr. Hamilton...”

Watching Natasha cry, Liam took a deep breath.

“Nat, the Hamilton family is an unfortunate one, and it has also dragged you down!” said Liam.

Natasha cried even harder, shaking her head as she said, “Old Mr. Hamilton, there's no such thing as dragging each other down. Don't forget, the Watson family is in the same situation!”

Speaking of which, Liam paused. “That's right. I forgot Terence also experienced the same hardship. Therefore, you must take care of yourself, Nat. Otherwise, I doubt Terence will be able to endure much more than I do.”

Upon hearing those words, Natasha nodded vigorously, her face streaked with tears. In a soft voice, she said, “I will.”

Liam looked at her. “All right, it's getting late. Terence should be waiting for you outside. Go on!”

“What about you?”

“I'm tired, so I'll rest for a bit!” said Liam.

After hearing his words, there was nothing else Natasha could say. She nodded. “All right. Please rest well. Don't hesitate to call me if you need anything!”

“Okay!” Liam nodded.
