You're Out Daddy

Chapter 259 Fate Is On Her Side

Seeing that Thalia was at a loss for words, Anthony continued, “I don't know what took place between

the two of you, and neither am I aware of the reason he said that to you, but I've always felt that men

sometimes say one thing and mean another. Sometimes, their actions are what that count.”

Thalia pursed her lips as she chewed on what she just heard.

“Of course, this is just my opinion; it might not be true. But I can tell you're someone important to him.

He actually cares a lot about you, just like how Daddy is toward Mommy. Our eyes don't lie,” Anthony

continued as he looked at Thalia.

The woman looked back at him as if she was looking for answers.

Is that so?

“Okay, everything I said is based on what I've observed. It's up to you to decide what you want to do.

After all, it's your problem. It's late. You should get some sleep.”

Instead of waiting for Thalia's response, Anthony looked at Benjamin and signaled at the latter. “Let's

go home.”

Benjamin got up and followed after his brother, but before he stepped out of the door, he turned back to

look at the woman. “There's actually an easy way to find out how he feels for you, Thalia.”

“What is it?” Thalia asked, her brows knitted together.

“Well, the low-level trick is you can pretend to fall in love with someone else and see his reaction. The

pro-level trick, meanwhile, is to test his heart.”

“Test his heart?”

“In simple terms, a man will only say his true feelings when he's about to lose you. He'll definitely show

whether he loves you or not at that critical moment,” Benjamin suggested.

Thalia narrowed her eyes as she listened attentively.

Sounds legit...

“But this is risky. You'll either end up in a win-win situation where both parties open up about their

feelings or a lose-lose situation where they never talk to each other ever again, so just take it as a

reference. Don't do anything rash,” the boy added.

He had forgotten that Thalia was a loose cannon.

She would do just anything—no matter how dangerous it was—only to prove something.

Things cannot get any worse than we are now, anyway.

“What should I do exactly?” Thalia asked eagerly.

“Well... I do have an idea,” Benjamin replied.

“Go on!”

Then, the three gathered together while Benjamin shared his thoughts.

When he was done, Anthony furrowed his brows. “I thought you said this is highly risky, and you don't

recommend doing it?”

“But the low-level trick obviously doesn't work for her, so we can only go with the second way. Although

it's a little extreme, it's worth taking the risk. Who knows it might work?”

“But—”

“Benjamin's right. I'll do as he said,” Thalia cut in.

“But what if Spencer doesn't act according to what we expect?” Anthony argued, still frowning.

“Then I'll accept defeat. If worse comes to worst, we'll just end up not talking for the rest of our lives. To

be honest, it's no different from how things are right now,” Thalia answered, looking at them with

determination in her eyes.

Anthony pursed his lips, speechless.

“Don't worry! I know what I'm doing!” Thalia assured.

“Fine. It's your choice, after all.”

Perhaps it was because she talked about the issue with the two boys, Thalia felt comforted and at ease

after that.

Looking at the kids with her eyes narrowed, she noted, “You know, both of you are full of smart ideas.

Sometimes I really feel like cracking up both of your brains to see what they're made of. I know you

guys are smart, but I didn't expect you to know stuff like this too, so detailed at that!”

“If you really want to, you can take Tony's brain. He's smarter, so it's more worthwhile for you to study

his,” Benjamin replied.

Thalia smiled, looking at the boy. Well... Anthony is indeed sharper, but that doesn't mean Benjamin's

any worse himself. This boy is better at concealing his intelligence, so they are actually like day and

night. One is conspicuously bright, and the other's subtly clever. They each have their strengths.

“Benjamin, I think I know what's a good suit for you!” Thalia suddenly exclaimed.

“What?”

“You'll know once you go back to Darknetz,” she replied.

Benjamin stared at her, feeling clueless, but he did not pursue the matter.

“All right. We really have to go home. Rest well. We'll get going,” Anthony voiced.

“Okay,” Thalia said with a nod.

“I'll leave the medication there. You decide what you want to do with it,” Anthony said before looking at

Benjamin, signaling the latter to leave.

After they closed the door behind them, Thalia turned back to look at the vial on the table. Her initially

calm eyes started getting misty.

Spencer Teal, are you what they say you are?

While the two brothers were heading downstairs, Benjamin broke the silence. “Tony, what do you think

are the odds of her winning?”

“What do you think?” Anthony asked back.

“How would I know?”

“Why did you suggest it when you didn't know how it'd turn out!”

Benjamin was taken aback. “Hey, I suggested that based on what you said about Spencer! As you

analyzed earlier, I think he must have feelings for Thalia. Otherwise, there's no way I would say

something random and baseless!”

Anthony stared at him for a good while, which alarmed Benjamin.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” Benjamin asked with a frown, as he noticed that was how Thalia

looked at him earlier.

“Benjamin,” Anthony finally said with his lips curved, “I realized that you're way better than me

sometimes.”

Hearing that, Benjamin raised his brows in surprise. “Oh! I thought it'd take you longer to realize that.

So what made you think so?”

Taking a deep thought, Anthony replied, “You're calmer than I am, notice details better, and are quicker

at taking action.”

Benjamin smiled and put his arm across his brother's shoulders. “Hehe, should we switch places, then?

I'll be the elder brother from now on, and I'll take good care of you.”

“You know what?” Anthony replied, his smile growing wider. “I admit that you're better at me in certain

regards, but being my elder brother? Never in this life!”

“You're so petty! I'm only a second younger than you!”

“Yeah, but that makes a lifetime of difference!” Anthony barked, raising his brows in a victorious smile.

“Life is so unfair!” Benjamin retorted.

“Yes, so just resign to your fate.” As they bantered with one another, they headed home.

Meanwhile, Thea was scrolling through her Instagram on her phone when she came across a photo

posted by one of her colleagues. Sharon and Denise were in it. That colleague was a die-hard fan of

Sharon, so it was normal for her to post photos of the actress.

Normally, Thea would not mind it at all. However, today was different as she froze after seeing the

particular photo.

I know there are rumors between Kenneth and Sharon, but I didn't know she was even this close to

Denise. Denise's outfit is the dress-up for today. What's going on?

Thea snapped out of her thought and went to talk to that colleague immediately. It was then revealed to

her that Sharon was filming a modern TV series with Denise.

So, the girl is into acting now.

Thea's eyes burned with hostility the moment she recalled the humiliation Denise put her through

earlier that day.

Ha! It turns out fate's on my side!
