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

Chapter 852 Denise Is A Little Angel

“If they could be born, they would probably be as beautiful as you,” Lina said.

Denise regained her senses and looked up at Lina, who had a gentle and longing expression at that moment.

The sorrow in Denise's eyes disappeared as she looked at Lina, saying, “You're so beautiful. They must be very beautiful too.”

Lina listened with a faint smile, but she couldn't hide the sadness in her eyes. “Back then, I used to wonder if they would be beautiful, but now, I just wish they are still here. It doesn't matter how they look. I'll love them regardless.”

Upon hearing this, Denise was deeply moved.

A moment later, she asked, “Have you ever heard of a story?”

“What story?” Lina asked, looking at her.

“In our hometown, there's a legend that says every child is an angel. When they choose their mothers, they search from atop the clouds. Once they've chosen you, they'll reincarnate as your child and wait to be born. However, if something unexpected happens and they can't make it, they'll return to the heavens and wait for a new opportunity.”

Lina listened, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “Is that true?”

Denise nodded. “That's what everyone says back home, so I think they must still be waiting for you. You have to get better soon, or they'll worry about you. If they know your body can't handle it, they won't dare to come looking for you.”

Lina listened and nodded. “I got it.”

Denise looked at her, smiled, picked up the peeled orange and handed a few pieces. “Have some of it.”

Lina looked at her, gently taking it from her hands. “Thank you.”

When Magus walked in, he saw the scene.

Lina was eating the orange slices in her hand with the two children by her bedside. A long-lost smile appeared on her pale face.

He couldn't remember the last time he saw a heartfelt smile like that.

However, upon seeing the two children, he furrowed his brows instantly.

“Why are you two here?” Magus asked right away.

When Benjamin and Denise looked at him, their brows were slightly furrowed. The two weren't afraid of him, but they couldn't understand the hatred in his gaze.

“We're just here to visit,” Benjamin said.

“You don't have to do that. Get out of here immediately, or don't blame me for being rude!” Magus said coldly.

However, at that moment, Lina said, “Magus, what are you doing? Don't be like that. You'll scare them!”

Magus looked at her and asked with a gentle voice, “Lina, do you know who they are?”

Lina looked at Benjamin and Denise and replied, “I know. They must be siblings with the child who came yesterday, considering their similar ages and appearances.”

Magus frowned deeply. “Then why are you still talk—”

“Magus, come on. They're just kids,” Lina said.

“They are no ordinary children,” said Magus.

From my observations and information gathered over the past few days, even a person like Thalia is willing to listen to and follow the child's instructions, even going so far as to protect him at all costs. How could such a child be ordinary?

Lina added, “No matter who they are, they're still children.”

“Lina...” Denise looked at her. She had wanted to ask why Lina didn't inquire about their identities, but it turned out the latter already knew.

At that moment, Lina looked at Denise and smiled gently. This child is just so adorable. “Don't worry. There's no need to be afraid. He may look fierce, but he's not a bad person deep inside.”

Denise nodded. “I know. Otherwise, Tony wouldn't have thought about recruiting him into our team.”

Denise was very straightforward, not beating around the bush or secretly probing. Instead, her personality actually made people feel more at ease.

Lina listened without getting angry and looked at her. “I'm afraid I have to let you down. He said he won't join anyone, so I hope you can respect his decision.”

Denise listened and nodded. “I understand. Tony said that when, we should definitely try our best to recruit talented people when we come across them. But if we really can't, we won't force anyone. We know our limits and we're not bad people, so you can rest assured!”

She added to make her words more believable, “We're actually planning to leave in a few days, so before we go, Tony specifically asked us to come and see you. He truly didn't mean for this to happen to you, and he's very sorry.”

“No worries. It actually has nothing to do with you guys. It's our own fault for deceiving so many people. We're always afraid of getting into trouble and feel guilty!” Met with Denise's honesty, Lina also spoke without hesitation.

Denise laughed. “The world owes you too much. What you did is in the past, but Lina, if you want to keep doing this in the long run, it's not a good idea. What if one day you encounter a real villain? You should rest and relax now, only then can you recover quickly.”

Lina listened and nodded. “Yes, you're right. I understand now.”

Denise smiled and said, “But don't worry, Lina. You can feel ease to stay here. Tony... No, I mean, do you remember the beautiful woman who came with him yesterday?”

Lina nodded.

“She has already paid for your bills for a year, so you don't have to worry and can stay here. We all hope you can get better soon!” Denise said, looking at her.

When Lina heard that, her eyes revealed a hint of surprise. She looked up at the tall Magus standing beside her and watching them chat. He seemed somewhat unable to join in the conversation and even felt unwelcome.

However, seeing Lina's gaze, he sobered up and furrowed his brows.

Lina could tell from his eyes that he was unaware of the matter.

“No, we cannot accept this.”Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Back then, Magus helped us and Thalia one, so this money is for repaying the favor. You don't need to feel too burdened. If you really feel bad about it, you can pay her back when Magus has made some money!” Denise said.

Lina listened and looked at Magus again.

As Magus listened from the side, his brows furrowed. It's Thalia who helped me back then. How come it's the other way around?

“Is that so, Magus?” Lina asked.

Magus was about to say something, but after noticing Denise and Benjamin exchanging meaningful glances and seeing that Lina was in a good state, he thought momentarily and nodded. “Yes, they're right. Lina, don't worry. I'll pay her back the money.”

Lena listened, finally felt reassured and nodded her head. “Okay.”
