The boys realized something and looked behind them.
As they expected, they saw a vehicle chasing them at high speed, seemingly intending to stop them.
Anthony was thinking about something with a frown when he saw a gun poking out of the car behind them and aiming at them.
“Daddy, gun!”
Kenneth accelerated the car even further. Despite his efforts, the car had still been shot a few times.
“Get down,” he commanded in a deep voice.
The boys did as their father said and hid in a safe spot.
Kenneth pulled out a gun from underneath his seat as he floored the gas.
Upon seeing that, the boys exchanged a scarily composed glance. They seemed to be used to it.
Abruptly, Kenneth slowed down the car, to which the pursuer responded by increasing their speed. Just as the two vehicles were moving side-by-side, he lowered the window, lifted his gun, and pulled the trigger.
The other party didn't anticipate that turn of events and received a shot to the head.
Kenneth stepped on the accelerator again to avoid a crash.
The boys quickly straightened up and turned back to see the car behind them swerving on the road before smashing into the railing.
Excitement colored Anthony's countenance. “Daddy, they stopped!”
Kenneth glanced at the rearview mirror silently and focused on driving away.
“Daddy, you were amazing,” Anthony praised.
“Well, of course. Daddy is DX's skilled sharpshooter, after all. His name would strike fear into anyone's heart back then,” Benjamin piped up.
Furrowing his eyebrows, Anthony asked, “How do you know about that?”
“Mr. Dave told me when we went to his armory last time.”
“I see! I must've missed it, then.”
“No, you didn't. Didn't you see how awesome Daddy was earlier?”
“That's true.” Anthony looked at his father. “You're so much more amazing than the legends, Daddy!”
“Really?” Kenneth asked.
“Of course.”
I don't think they've flattered me like this before, but I have to say, it makes me feel pretty good to hear their compliments. ”What am I like in the legends?”
“Well, the legends only mentioned you're amazing, but not how amazing you are. Also, the legends say the one thing you have the most is scandals.”
That rendered Kenneth speechless for a moment. “As expected, legends are unreliable. Don't mention stuff like that in front of Nat.”
The boys couldn't help but chuckle.
Benjamin adjusted his posture and looked behind. He saw the car before following them again. “Daddy, they're back.”
Kenneth looked at the rearview mirror and saw that his son was, indeed, correct.
He narrowed his eyes coldly. If not for the children, I would've taken them out with extreme measures. However, as much as I want to do that, I can't risk their safety.
Before he sped up again, he reminded, “Sit tight, you two.”
When it came to driving, he was pretty skilled.
