Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 486

Chapter 486

Right then, Boss appeared to have regained his confidence.

He looked at Will. Even though he appeared to be at a disadvantage, he was unfazed.

“General Will, that was then and this is now. Just because you couldn't do it in the past doesn't mean that you cannot do it right now,” Boss replied.

Will looked at him and said, “What is it that you want to say?”

“That man is the founder of DX Group. Even though he retired in the early stages, his influence over the group is not to be taken lightly. Besides, he still has a good rapport with the current person in charge of DX Group.”

“So?”

“As long as we have the woman in our hands, they will listen to us. You need only request whatever it is you're looking for, be it money or influence over DX Group.”

“She's just a woman. Does she really wield such influence over him?” Will asked. He was still skeptical of Boss' idea.

“General Will, those at DX are all sentimental folks, especially J. He grabbed my goods because of this woman and even hit me back then. Now, he's come all the way here for this woman. Aren't these enough to tell you something?”

Will contemplated his words.

Then, he looked at Gavin, who was standing aside, and asked, “What do you think?”

Gavin glanced at Boss and narrowed his eyes before replying to the general, “Since Boss is quite confident about the matter, I think he should be tasked with this. After all, he has risked his life to be here. You will not incur any losses whether this succeeds or not.”

Will nodded in agreement.

Boss stood there and said nothing.

“Okay. I'm going to hand this over to you, then,” Will said. “Boss, I believe I don't need to reiterate myself about what happens if you fail again this time.”

“Of course,” Boss replied with a determined look.

“I shall await your good news, then.”

“General Will, how about the woman?”

Will contemplated for a moment before he said, “I didn't expect Theodore to keep such a big secret from all of us. I can't believe he has a daughter...” Then, he turned to look at Boss. “If I remember correctly, you took part as well when we got rid of him.”

Boss clenched his jaw and tightened his fists. “I was still young...”

Will let out a chortle. “Yes, indeed. That says a lot about you being a vicious person even from such a tender age, whether it is to someone else or even yourself.”

Boss remained silent.

“Does the woman know?” Will asked.

Again, Boss kept quiet.

Will was hit by a pang of realization right then. “If I'm right, she's here to seek revenge, is she not?”

Reluctant as he was to admit to that, Boss nodded and said, “Yes.”

“Ah, this is getting interesting...” Will glanced at Boss yet again. “You killed her parents so many years ago, and now you're trying to use her as a pawn. My, my. Fate really has its way of bringing the two of you together.”

Boss straightened his back. Even though his wound had split open and the blood seeping from it had stained his clothes, he was still standing strong.

Seeing that Boss was unfazed when he mocked him, Will said, “Go get ready, then. Let her stay on the base while we uncover the truth.”

“But what if J requests to meet her in person?” Boss asked.

“By then, I'll send someone over myself.”

Boss knew it would be futile to say anything further, so he pursed his lips and nodded. “Okay.”

Will glanced at him and got up to leave.

Boss stood there in the empty room for quite some time.

He only turned around to leave after everyone else had left to tend to their own business.

When he was about to step out the door, he thought for a moment and looked at someone beside him. “Where did you send the woman just now?”

“In the small house over there.”

Boss headed over right away.

When he reached the entrance and saw the people guarding the door, he thought for a moment before walking up to them.

He handed some cash to the guards and managed to enter the place without another word.

In the small room, Natasha was sitting on a chair and staring out the window as if she was waiting for something.

When she heard someone knocking on her door, she closed her eyes.

“Why? Have you guys finished discussing the matter?” Natasha asked as she slowly opened her eyes.

“You know it's me?”

Natasha let out a soft chuckle. “It's not difficult to pick up a b*stard's scent that has spread everywhere.”

“I'm only doing it for your own good.”

Natasha turned around and looked at him. “Really?”

The hint of derision in her eyes made Boss furrow his brows. “Yes. I admit that my intention in the beginning was to protect myself. I can only go after what I want in life when I'm alive, you see.”

“What a shameless excuse!”

“No matter what you say, I have to tell you that the general is not as good as I am when it comes to communicating. I only did that for the sake of your own good.”

“So, do I have to thank you now?”

“I know whatever I say now will not make a difference. Just stay right here for the time being. I'm going to get you out of here when the chance arises.”

Natasha looked at Boss and rejected him outright, “No, thank you.”

“Why? Do you want to stay here for the rest of your life?”

“How did my father actually die?” Natasha suddenly asked.

Boss was stunned.

There was a degree of certainty in her eyes that gave Boss a feeling that she must have known something.

“What do you think? Haven't you made your guess already?”

Natasha stood up and walked over to his side. Her face flashed with fury as she demanded, “So, did my father really die because of Vermillion Base?”

“Yes!”

Natasha tightened her fists as she demanded, “Who is the murderer?”

“Murderer?” Boss let out a laugh. “The past generals of Vermillion Base, of course. No matter who succeeds the post, I believe they will give out the same order.”

“Who was the one who gave out the order then? And who executed it?” Natasha asked through gritted teeth. She was boiling with fury, but she still tried to keep herself in check. Her eyes had gone red and her hands were shaking from the overpowering rage.

“Is that still important? You should think of your own situation right now. You might not even get to walk out of here alive.”

Natasha merely eyed the man and spat, “Do you really think I expect to walk out of here alive the moment I came in? I want to know the truth. Who killed my parents?”

Boss' yellow eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at her.


“I'm only doing it for your own good.”

Natasha turned around and looked at him. “Really?”
