Kenneth glanced at him indifferently before averting his gaze. “What's so weird about it?”
“I can't quite put my finger on it, but I feel something is amiss. Boss didn't suffer much when you rescued Nat or did anything to him. He was also aware of DX's strength, so even if we were to engage in a confrontation, he wouldn't get anything out of it. But somehow, he insisted on killing us. What could be the reason?” Anthony raised his doubt.
Kenneth responded, “A dog needs no reason to bite.”
“Yes, I know, but—”
“The reason is simple. He wants to kill me because I kidnapped him before and injured him.”
Anthony and Benjamin were stunned. They turned their attention to him. “When did this happen?”
“At Glenport City,” Kenneth answered nonchalantly.
Anthony immediately understood what it was all about. “No wonder! It all makes sense now. He wants revenge!”
Kenneth did not want to explain further. After extinguishing his cigarette, he looked at the boys. “After this, he should be aware of your existence. So no matter what happens, it's important for you to be more cautious whenever you go out.”
Anthony and Benjamin both nodded in acknowledgment.
“Let's go. It's getting late, and Nat is still waiting at home,” Kenneth said. As he turned around, he extended his arms and embraced Benjamin, a gesture that was quite rare.
Benjamin froze, as he did not know how to react to his gesture. He looked up at Kenneth and smiled at him.
It was amazing how men could improve their relationships by being on the same page.
At that moment, their relationship went beyond just father and son. It was more akin to that of friends.
As they were about to get into the car, two cars suddenly came speeding toward them.
Seeing the cars, Kenneth instinctively pulled the two boys back and stood before him.
Anthony and Benjamin had no intention of hiding behind. One of them leaned out and looked at the approaching cars.
“Are they chasing after us again?” Anthony asked.
Kenneth shook his head when he saw the vehicles clearly. “It's not them!”
Anthony raised his eyes. “How do you know?”
“They can't afford these cars!”
“Oh, you're right.”
The car honked and stopped beside them. A few men then got out of the car.
They were Mike, Luke, and Alexia.
After getting out of the cars, they greeted Kenneth and the boys.
“Boss, are you okay?” Luke asked.
Kenneth looked at them. “What are you guys doing here?”
“Dave said you were attacked. We couldn't reach you, so we asked him for your whereabouts and came here to lend you a hand,” he said, looking around. “Where are they?”
“I've taken care of them,” Kenneth replied.
At that time, Mike walked toward Kenneth after sizing the car up. “Kenneth, based on the bullet marks on the car, it seems that multiple vehicles were pursuing you. Did you manage to handle all of them?”
Kenneth nodded calmly. “Of course.”
“All by yourself?”
Anthony spoke up. “Excuse me, did you not see us?”
The three of them finally noticed Anthony and Benjamin.
Mike was stunned for a moment when he saw Anthony's face. “Kenneth, i-is he your son?”
Kenneth inclined his head in response.
“Boss, he looks just like you!” Luke couldn't help but express his astonishment.
“And this one looks like Natalie,” Mike said while studying Anthony and Benjamin. Although he had already seen Denise, seeing Anthony and Benjamin was still a shock.
