You're Out Daddy

Chapter 244 The Three Children Fought

Half an hour later, only the lights in the CEO's office on the thirty-second floor were still lit in Hamilton

Corporation.

By the time Kenneth returned, there were only a few people left. Fabian was on the phone, but at the

sight of Kenneth, he hung up after uttering a few words.

“Mr. Hamilton!”

Kenneth strode toward his office while Fabian followed closely behind.

Shrugging off his jacket, Kenneth casually tossed it aside and looked back at him. “What's the matter?”

“I discovered that someone has been buying our company's shares in secret recently. Most of the

shares in the hands of the minor shareholders have already been acquired. I tried making inquiries

about the identity of the person, but they adamantly refused to reveal anything. Moreover, the

acquisition price is three times the market value,” Fabian reported somberly.

Upon hearing that, Kenneth narrowed his eyes a fraction.

“Say, could this be Kingsley's doing, Mr. Hamilton? Previously, he wanted to impeach you.”

“It isn't him!” Kenneth stated bluntly.

“But who could it be besides him?” Fabian couldn't think of anyone else.

Kenneth's gaze was unfathomable. “He's a stingy man, and he's familiar with the company's

operations. He would never do such a thing as forking out three times the price to acquire some

shares. If he really wanted to do this, he would've done so back then. Why would he wait until now

when we're head-to-head to do this?”

“While that's true, who else could it be other than him? It's obvious that the culprit is targeting you.”

Kenneth's eyes narrowed into slits, a gleam of chilliness glinting in them.

“Fabian!”

“Yes?”

“Go and negotiate about acquiring their shares as well. They're offering three times the price, yes?

We'll offer five times the price. Also, ask whether any major shareholders are willing to sell a portion of

their shares. Let them propose the price.”

“But Mr. Hamilton—”

“Do as I ordered!”

Fabian thought for a while before he nodded. “Okay. Got it!”

“In addition, how's the progress with Zachary?” Kenneth inquired.

“He hasn't made any moves, merely going to the hospital to visit his mother. He also visited Desmond

once. It's rumored that they got into an argument, and Desmond even flew into a rage in prison.”

When Kenneth heard that, his lips curved into a sneer.

“On top of that...” Eyeing the man, Fabian appeared hesitant to speak.

“What else?” Kenneth demanded.

After a moment's hesitation, Fabian continued, “On top of that, Thea and Zachary have been very close

lately... Their relationship seems to be more than that of friends.”

Kenneth narrowed his eyes upon hearing that and glared at the man. “Do you think I care about that?”

“No, I just felt that it isn't quite appropriate for Ms. Jarman to do such a thing.” Fabian didn't quite know

how to explain it.

Everyone was aware of her feelings toward Kenneth in the past, but she went to his archenemy when

she failed to bag him. Verily, such an action invited much speculation.

Unexpectedly, the corners of Kenneth's mouth turned up. “Every individual has the right to make his or

her own choice, and this is understandable.”

“But—”

“I don't care what she is or will be doing. Just keep an eye on Zachary. Once he makes a move, inform

me immediately!” Kenneth ordered.

Following that, Fabian nodded. “Understood.”

“You're dismissed.”

Nodding, Fabian turned around and went out.

In the office, Kenneth sat on the leather chair. His indecipherable gaze was just like a vast stretch of

purgatory.

Kenneth was exceedingly efficient.

In no time, an entertainment company known as “NatNise Media” surreptitiously came to be.

That was also the entertainment company that helped Denise sign her contract. It was a new company,

so no one thought much of it. With that, Denise was officially ready to join the film crew.

When Liam learned of that matter, he initially strongly opposed it. After all, the entertainment industry

was a sleazy place, messy and arduous. As such, he couldn't possibly allow the darling of the Hamilton

family to suffer such a hardship. However, the instant he heard that Natasha was supportive of it, he

changed his mind.

Moreover, he felt that no one would dare do anything to Denise with the Hamilton family protecting her.

Subsequently, he learned that Kenneth purposefully established an entertainment company just for her.

Only then did all his worries fade away.

As long as his great-granddaughter wanted to join the entertainment industry, he didn't mind allowing

her free rein.

Thus, he deliberately organized a dinner at Infinitium the night he learned of that news to celebrate

Denise's venture.

Terence went early with the three children. After they had arrived, the three children stayed in the

private room while Terence went out to make a phone call.

Only then did Anthony and Benjamin learn that Denise would be filming a movie. Nonetheless, they

weren't at all surprised.

“Tony, Ben, are you both not surprised?” Denise asked with her eyes fixated on them.

“What's there to be surprised about? I support you no matter what you'd like to do!” Anthony declared.

Besides, doing this is better than doing some dangerous stuff with us. Indeed, it's tiring. But at the very

least, it isn't that dangerous.

Right then, Benjamin seconded, “Exactly! Furthermore, this is perfect for you, considering your looks.

Our family's genes are pretty good, so it's a pity not to be a celebrity!”

As they both expressed their fervent support, Denise frowned.

“Did you two reach a consensus, not wanting me to go for training?” she questioned, eyeing them

suspiciously.

“No!” Anthony denied it.

“Of course not! I just feel that this is indeed suitable for you!” Benjamin denied it as well.

However, Denise grew increasingly suspicious the more they convinced her otherwise.

“You two don't need to lie to me, for I know your thoughts all too well. Don't forget that we're triplets. I've

got a telepathic connection with you both!” she huffed. Hah! They want to keep me in the dark, huh?

That's pretty much impossible!

Both Anthony and Benjamin went silent.

They exchanged a glance before Anthony admitted, “Indeed, I hope that you can stay by Nat's side.

Although this job is tiring, at the very least, it isn't dangerous.”

Frowning, Denise shifted her gaze to Benjamin. “What do you think, Ben?”

“Although that's my hope as well, I absolutely respect your decision!” Benjamin asserted.

“You're much wiser, Ben!” Denise growled in displeasure.

Hearing that, Anthony said nothing.

“The filming for this movie is only two months. I'm just going to try it out. Then, I'll decide what happens

after two months!” Denise enunciated. At that moment, she was no longer her usual sweet, adorable,

and docile self. Instead, her expression radiated determination and persistence.

She seemed like an entirely different person from before.

Despite that, Anthony and Benjamin knew that it was her true self.

As though afraid that she would be angry, they glanced at each other without speaking further.

At that precise moment, the door was pushed open. Liam and Terence walked in, followed closely by

Kenneth and Natasha.

When Denise spotted them entering the room, she immediately hid away her earlier expression,

reverting to her usual considerate and sensible self.

However, as soon as Kenneth stepped into the room, he seemingly noticed the tense atmosphere a

heartbeat ago. That aside, he caught a glimpse of Denise's stiffened expression.

Were they fighting just now?
