Chapter 523 - Revenge 524: She Got That From You (1/2)
”Don't ask, Nathalia. Just do what I say. It's for your best interest.”
”For my best interest? I don't think so, Dad! You were the one who always tells me that once I started on something, I should be the one finishing it.” If there is one thing she takes pride in as a hacker, that would be getting the information that she wants. She will not stop until she gets it. Even her father told her that.
How can he just say those words like nothing?
”Sometimes, it is best to leave things like this out of your reach. Let me handle this, Nathalia. Don't make me repeat myself again.” Leonardo coldly said to her, but Nathalia stood still. She did not even flinch.
Her father may have always given her whatever she wants, but Nathalia knows her limit. This is the limit where she should back down now, and she would usually listen, but no. She will stand her ground. Her father wants her to improve her skill in hacking? Then solving this problem might be the best way for her to do just that.
”Well, I don't want to repeat myself either, Dad. I want to solve that problem with or without you. I want to get involved. I am not leaving this all to you.” If her father is so worried about her getting herself into trouble because of that stupid symbol. He might as well sit right next to her and watch her.
Since the moment she saw that symbol, she is already involved. There is no point in telling her that she should not get herself involved.
”Your daughter's very stubborn, Leo. I'm pretty sure she got that from you.”
”Yeah, I have to agree with Arion. Your daughter got her spunk from you.”
Both Stan Arion smirked at what is happening. They both suddenly remember when Mary and Leonardo had an argument about hacking into someone's system. Mary didn't want Leonardo to continue on, but Leonardo intends to do it despite the risk. He always says that once he has started on something, he will finish it until the end.
”Shut it. You two should be helping me here instead.” He angrily said to Stan and Arion. They both know how important his daughter is to him, and they should understand why he does not want Nathalia to continue on. ”She became like this ever since that son of yours confessed to my daughter.”
Arion's mouth twitched at the accusation Leonardo is throwing at his son. ”Excuse you? I'm pretty that it is not my son's fault. Besides, my son is not even here, yet you're bringing him up for something you are clearly at fault for!”
'Unbelievable, utterly unbelievable. I can't believe he's getting my son to get involved in this.' Arion knows that his son can be way too stubborn for anyone to handle, but he is sure that his son is not why Nathalia is not listening to her father.
”Stop bringing Aaron up, Dad. He has nothing to do with this, and you know that. This is between you and me.” After hearing that Aaron is getting involved in this argument, Nathalia is now enraged at her father.
She knows that her father is still disliking that Aaron is courting her, but it doesn't mean that he is allowed to blame Aaron.
”Well, she said it's between her and him, so I'm suggesting that the rest of us will leave you two alone,” Stan said, then he and his daughter left the room.
Arion soon after followed the pair, but he said one last thing to Leonardo before he ultimately left the room. ”Leo, better not make this conversation way too long. We have a lot of work to do.”
Although he is annoyed by Leonardo, he still being a considerate friend. Giving the two some time alone. The only thing he hopes is that they shouldn't take too much time to get on the same page.
After getting out, Arion noticed the stare Stan is giving him. Having no idea why he is giving him that kind of look, Arion asks him in an annoyed tone, ”Why are you staring at me like that? If you want to say something, then say it.”
