Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 431

Chapter 431

When Kenneth turned around to look at Dave, he couldn't help but chuckle. “No worries. The person who can kill me isn't born yet!”

“It'd better be!” Dave replied.

Kenneth left without saying anything further.

His tall figure elicited a feeling of profound forlornness at night.

Dave didn't turn around and remained seated on the couch. One could hardly see his handsome face in the dimly-lit room.

After the conversation ended sometime, Anthony stood rooted at the same spot and hadn't left.

Although Anthony had no idea about Kenneth's plan, he could tell from their conversation that Kenneth was ready to put everything on the line.

With that thought in mind, his heart skipped a beat.

Anthony knew Kenneth better after getting along with him and witnessing the sacrifice he made for Nat. Hence, even though he used to be dissatisfied with Kenneth, his perception of Kenneth gradually changed.

Now, His heart wrenched after he listened to Kenneth's words.

He knew it was because Kenneth was part of his family.

Although he had never imagined living with Kenneth, he couldn't accept the thought of not seeing Kenneth anymore.

No! Never! We must save Nat! At the same time, Daddy must also be safe!

Anthony began racking his brain to come up with a way to do that.

I must find a way!

After thinking about it for quite some time, a thought flashed across Anthony's mind.

He gazed at Dave, who was already downstairs, for seconds before walking up to him.

“Mr. Dave.”

Dave was startled for a moment before he tried to find out who it was.

When Anthony walked closer, Dave frowned and looked at him. “Why haven't you gone to bed at this hour?”

After hesitating for a while, Anthony gazed at Dave and said, “I heard your conversation with Daddy.”

Dave was dumbfounded.

Despite his childish face, there was a sense of maturity about Anthony that most people his age did not have.

Dave cleared his throat and came up with a random explanation. “Your dad and I... had a little chat.”

“Mr. Dave, I might not be of age, but I'm not a kid anymore. I understand many things!” Anthony shouted.

Dave gazed at him, not knowing how to respond at that moment.

“Hence, you don't have to treat me like a kid!” Anthony added firmly.

While looking at Anthony, Dave somehow felt he was the mini version of Kenneth.

He knew Anthony was different from other kids when Kenneth said Anthony had joined Darknetz.

With that thought in mind, Dave said, “Have a seat!”

Anthony sat on the chair where Kenneth was seated earlier.

“Do you have something to tell me?” Now, Dave sounded like he was talking to an adult instead of a kid.

“Is Daddy going to look for Nat himself?” Anthony asked right away.

Dave hesitated because he recalled Kenneth's reminder.

“Mr. Dave, although I'm not sure what happened between you and Daddy, I can tell Daddy trusts you. You surely won't watch idly as something terrible happens to him, right?” Anthony asked.

Dave narrowed his eyes upon hearing it. “Of course!”

“In that case, please let me know what is happening. Who knows if we can think of another solution together?” Anthony said.

Dave chuckled. “Another solution... Your dad won't choose to do it if there is another way.”

Immediately, Anthony argued, “Adults often have a fixed mindset. I might be young, but it doesn't mean I can't find a way! Besides, how do you know for sure without trying it?”

Dave felt his stomach drop as Anthony was talking.

However, after pondering it for a moment, he said, “Your dad doesn't allow me to tell you!”

“But I think you won't listen to him, right?” Anthony quickly asked.

“What do you want me to tell your dad if something happens to you guys!” Even though Dave was worried about Kenneth, he was determined to do as Kenneth asked.

“I promise you I won't act on impulse. Besides, I know my abilities and won't die so easily!” Anthony said.

Dave really thought Anthony wasn't an ordinary kid.

After all, Anthony could quell his worries with only a few words.

Moments later, Dave gave it some thought and said, “All right. I'll tell you—Boss wants your dad to see him alone!”

Anthony narrowed his eyes. “In that case, is Daddy going there alone?”

“Of course. You know he won't risk Nat's life!” Dave said.

Anthony pondered about it for a while and asked, “Daddy isn't someone who just listens. He must have a plan, right?”

Dave gazed at him and responded, “Well, you seem to understand your dad very well!”

“Like you said, he's my dad!”

Dave nodded and continued, “Yes, he wants to see your dad alone...” Nonetheless, his words remained at the tip of his tongue.

Despite Dave's reluctance to reveal the truth, Anthony could guess what it was. He narrowed his brows and asked tentatively, “So, did Daddy go to see him with the thought of dragging him down as well?”

“It's a battle for life. The one who's afraid will lose!” Dave repeated what Kenneth told him.

“However, Boss certainly won't see Daddy alone!”

“Of course! Your dad has to go all out because Boss has the upper hand!” Dave replied.

Upon hearing it, Anthony furrowed his brows. “No way! We can't let Daddy go alone!”

“If your dad doesn't go alone, Nat will be in danger!” With that, Dave glanced at Anthony as though he was waiting for Anthony's opinion.

Anthony mulled over it for seconds and argued, “We cannot swap one for the other because they are my daddy and my mommy. I want to save both!”

Despite his young age, Anthony was full of ideas.

Strangely, Dave couldn't help but believe his words.

“How do you plan to save him?” After coming to his senses, Dave enquired.

Anthony gazed at him and responded, “Mr. Dave, I have no idea how Daddy is involved in DX now. Nonetheless, I know you guys established it together in the early days. I have a question. Will DX be willing to work for Daddy?”

Instantly, Dave's lips curled into a smile. “DX has always been in your daddy's possession. The entire DX will support him whenever he needs it. However, the problem is he is not willing to use it!”

“Why?”

Dave heaved a sigh. “It's a long story... I'll explain it to you next time!”

Anthony nodded in response.

“Anyway, do you have any idea now?” Dave asked.

Immediately, a glint flashed across Anthony's eyes. Then, he narrowed his eyes and said, “I want to destroy Vermillion Base!”
