Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 433

Chapter 433

Anthony seemed to sense Dave's uncertainty from the change in the latter's countenance. Thus, he stated sincerely, “Mr. Dave, I'm not pulling your leg. I'm serious about it.”

He claims he's not pulling my leg, but should I take his words seriously?

Even though Dave was impressed with Anthony's eloquence moments ago, he could not help but feel that the boy was building castles in the air.

“Anthony, don't you think you're overly optimistic? It is easier said than done. Things might not be as simple as how you think!” Dave refuted warily.

“Mr. Dave, you think that I'm bragging, don't you?” Anthony retorted. He could sense the unmissable hint of doubt in Dave's tone and countenance.

The latter did not utter any words. Evidently, Anthony made the right speculation.

With that, Anthony added, “However, I'm not bragging. I mean it, and I have a plan in mind!”

Puzzled, Dave stared at him. “Plan? What kind of plan?”

After pondering for a while, Anthony leaned closer and whispered something to him. Moments later, Dave furrowed his brows and looked at him in sheer disbelief.

“I'm fully aware that my plan might not work perfectly. However, I'm convinced it can at least disrupt Boss' scheme. Most importantly, we must give our all to save Daddy and Nat. In my opinion, we can give it a try!”

“Have you thought about how you could mobilize the others?” Dave asked quizzically.

“Mr. Dave, don't you know that money can do magic?” Anthony asked.

Dave narrowed his eyes as he fixed his gaze on Anthony.

“I believe that someone will be willing to do so. In fact, there will be quite a number!” Anthony replied confidently. After all, nobody could survive without money. The majority of people were desirous of authority and wealth. Hence, he was sure as hell that someone would do so willingly as long as they were well paid.

Dave continued to stare at Anthony with narrowed eyes. He was impressed with the boy's intelligence a while ago, and now he was even fully convinced by his words at the moment. Regardless of whether things would turn out as expected, Dave had to admit that Anthony had a point.

As mentioned earlier by Anthony, the unique advantage is the key to success. None of us possesses it but him!

Dave could not fathom why Anthony had such a sense of superiority and conviction. Notwithstanding, at the sight of the latter's utter confidence, he believed in him uncontrollably. At the same time, his curiosity about the boy was piqued as time went by.

After much contemplation, Dave looked at him. “Is there anything that you need me to do?”

“I'll start making the necessary arrangements. Mr. Dave, I'll let you know if I need your help at any time,” Anthony responded courteously.

Hearing that, Dave nodded. “Okay!”

Anthony finally plastered a smile on his face after Dave agreed. “Mr. Dave, my daddy is blessed to have such a wonderful friend like you.”

The latter's lips lifted into a smile as he was pleased with Anthony's compliment. “Remember to repeat this statement to your daddy. I reckon he needs his close ones to enlighten him on that. Otherwise, he'll keep thinking that I owe him a lot.”

Anthony's lips curled up. “Okay! I'll surely tell him that after we manage to save Nat.”

Dave smiled pleasantly.

“It's getting late, and I have to go back to my room first. Mr. Dave, good night.”

“Good night!”

The next moment, Anthony headed upstairs.

Seated on the couch, Dave gazed at Anthony's retreating figure with inexplicit emotion. He had a hunch the latter would have a bright future beyond imagination if his plan turned out successful.

At that very moment, he could not help but mock himself. No doubt, we are incomparable to the highly competent young ones!

Once Anthony was back in his room, he turned on the laptop and accessed Hacker Community.

After contemplating for a while, he finally decided to post a bounty list with Boss' information, offering a bounty of at least a hundred million.

On top of that, he did not limit the number of people joining. In other words, the hackers could work in groups, and the reward would be calculated based on the number of people who joined. It could vary according to Boss' condition after they accomplished their mission. Nevertheless, Anthony assured them that the minimum amount paid to them would be one hundred million regardless of whether Boss was captured alive, severely injured, or offed.

After going through what he had typed, Anthony pressed a button to post it right away.

He had intentionally chosen a time when most hackers actively accessed the site. The moment his bounty list was posted, it created an uproar.

Not to mention, he posted it in the name of Anonymous, who had been lying low. Furthermore, nobody else had ever come up with such a bounty list after Shadow Seeker's previous post. Hence, it whipped the other hackers up instantly, and they started gossiping fervently.

Undeniably, Shadow Seeker's post to track down Vermillion Base was followed by Anonymous' to capture Boss. Subsequently, the others could not refrain from suspecting that Anonymous had done that solely for Shadow Seeker.

It was known to everyone in the hacking world that Anonymous had been flattering Shadow Seeker. Nevertheless, Shadow Seeker had never responded so far. Inevitably, they sensed some changes after the duo's previous intense competition.

Everyone in Hacker Community was open-minded and did not mind much, even if any among them was homoromantic. Many were only worried about the invincible team formed once Shadow Seeker and Anonymous were in a relationship. With that, the duo would be ranked the top in the hacking world. By then, everyone else would be no match for them.

Nevertheless, they were oblivious to the actual circumstance. In actuality, Shadow Seeker and Anonymous had topped the list of the hacking world long ago, but there was no official announcement.

Anthony did not butt in as the other hackers gossiped about them. He stayed logged in and looked on as they discussed enthusiastically.

Furthermore, he paid no heed to what they discussed. Unequivocally, their gossip would more or less distract the duo's foes indirectly and form a shield for them. Therefore, he did not feel like making any explanation.

Soon, there were more than ten thousand messages below Anthony's bounty list. Nonetheless, he remained silent.

Needless to say, he knew that it was impossible to eliminate Vermillion Base within a short span of time. However, it was still as easy as snapping his fingers if he targeted only one of them. I reckon nobody will be able to resist the attractive bounty! Most importantly, I should try my best to gather as many people as possible...

Hmph! Boss can't be hiding from us forever! Even if he doesn't meet his end now, he might be injured. Fine, if he doesn't sustain any injuries, he might not have the energy to target Daddy again. As long as we can grab the opportunity, it's just a matter of time before Daddy saves Nat successfully.

In the meantime, the first person started registering his name beneath the bounty list. Soon, another person followed suit.

Anthony continued to look on in silence.

However, the number of registered names did not increase for quite a while after that. It was as though there was a network lag.

Seeing that, Anthony knitted his brows.

Could it be my plan is wrong?

Surprisingly, the number of registered names suddenly surged to eighteen when he checked on it again the next second.

A smile broke out on Anthony's face as he caught sight of the increasing number of registered names.

Very good. That's good enough. Once we mess Boss' plan up, he'll be distracted and has to sort things out. By then, we'll be able to take advantage of him.

As the thought occurred to Anthony, he smiled broadly. Right that instant, another idea crossed his mind.

If everything goes smoothly and it turns out a success, I'll build a new world belonging to me—my kingdom!
