Denise was furiously shooting Anthony meaningful glances behind Natasha's back.
Anthony could understand what she meant even though she did not say anything. He looked at Natasha with an obedient expression on his face.
Natasha glanced at him. “Move!”
Anthony instinctively moved aside.
Natasha walked over and sat in front of the computer.
Miguel looked on in confusion.
What's going on?
Natasha placed a hand on the computer and suddenly started typing furiously. After the internet battle ended, the opponent was talking to Anthony. However, after Natasha typed a few keys, the opponent went offline.
Natasha continued typing on the keyboard silently.
A few minutes later, Natasha typed a string of words.
It read: Boss is a son of a b*tch!
Thereafter she stood up.
Everyone was shocked by her actions.
Natasha glanced at Anthony and said, “Come out with me.”
Anthony did not utter a single word and obediently trailed after her.
Miguel was astounded by the scene in front of him.
“What just happened?” he asked his friends.
“N-No idea.”
“Although I don't understand what she's doing, why does it seem pretty awesome?”
“Is she a hacker?” Miguel's friends asked.
“How would I know?” Miguel retorted.
At that moment, someone suddenly said, “Look!”
Thereafter, he showed his phone screen to his friends. At that moment, a reporter was reporting that every television channel and billboard in Dellmoor displayed the words: Boss is a son of a b*tch.
They stared at each other.
“She did it. I saw her typing those words earlier on!”
“B-But that was just a few moments ago! How did she manage to do that so quickly?”
Many people were shocked.
“If I were to do it, I'd need a really long time...” Miguel mused aloud. It appeared that Natasha's skills were significantly better than his.
More specifically, her skills are better than Master's.
Miguel grew more shocked when he stared at the door that she exited from earlier.
At that moment, he found it strange and confusing. Where have I seen her before?
As he pondered about it, he suddenly recalled something. “Doesn't she look like t-that lady in the video that other day?” he asked his friends.
“Now that you've mentioned it... She does look like that lady.”
“She is the lady in the video!”
Everyone turned to look at the door with stunned expressions on their faces.
What kind of people is this family made up of?
Outside the door, Natasha walked to a relatively quieter place.
Anthony and Denise followed her.
Natasha found a clean spot and sat down.
She looked up and saw the two children standing next to each other obediently. They had guilty looks on their faces.
Natasha asked, “Why are your heads lowered? Raise your heads.”
“Nat, it's my fault! Don't blame Denise!”
“It's my fault too! It's not completely Tony's fault!” Denise interjected.
The two siblings attempted to defend each other.
Natasha asked, “Why are you at fault?”
“W-We should not have kept things from you, and we should not have investigated the thing regarding Vermillion Base?” Denise asked.
Anthony said, “We should not have done things without telling you. Whatever it is, we are at fault.”
Natasha inhaled deeply. “You did all this for me. Why are you at fault?”
The two children looked at her with confusion on their faces.
Had they misheard?
Natasha looked at them as a hint of guilt flashed across her face. “It's my fault. I'm sorry. I have caused all of you to worry for me.”
The two children were confused as they had expected a scolding from Natasha.
“Are you serious, Nat?” Anthony asked in disbelief.
“What do you think?” Natasha blinked.
Anthony and Denise could tell that she was serious from her expression.
Denise instantly heaved a sigh of relief and walked to Natasha. “You scared me, Nat. I thought that I was going to be scolded today...”
Natasha smiled when Denise walked to her.
Anthony piped up, “Nat, the person at fault isn't you. You shouldn't be the one to apologize.”
Natasha looked at him. “I understand what you mean, Anthony. I also know what you want to do. However, I'd like to tell you to stop here.”
Anthony frowned and looked at her. “Nat, they did all that to you... I can't let them get away scot-free.”
Natasha knew that Anthony was the most difficult person to persuade. She thought for a moment before looking at him. “Anthony, the person, who caused that incident, has died. Furthermore, I didn't lose anything. Conversely, Boss helped me kill my enemies. Although his purpose wasn't to help me, it's true that he has done that. So, let's leave the matter at that!” Natasha said seriously.
Anthony frowned and was unwilling to let go of the matter. “How can that be, Nat?”
“Do you think that I'll defend him?”
“B-But...”
“Anthony. The enemy is dead, and my problems are solved. I just want to spend time with your great-grandfather and be filial to him. He has fretted over me for far too long. It's time for him to enjoy life,” Natasha said placidly. Her voice was gentle, but she appeared especially determined.
It was apparent that Natasha was very serious.
Even though Anthony was unwilling to let matters rest, he could only obey Natasha's requests.
It was because nothing mattered more to him than Natasha's happiness.
None of them would stop her from experiencing happiness.
Anthony lowered his gaze in disappointment. “I understand, Nat.”
Natasha understood what the duo was thinking. She slowly spread open her arms. Upon seeing that, Anthony walked over to her.
Natasha hugged the two children and murmured, “You must have been very sad when you saw that video, right?”
The two children nodded their heads. Although Anthony did not speak, his grasp on Natasha's clothes tightened.
Natasha chuckled and continued speaking. “I don't know which part they revealed to the public, but I'll tell you this. I did not lose out. On the contrary, I put up an excellent fight. So, don't worry about it. I'm good. Really.”
Denise's eyes darted about. Her heart hurt when she thought of the video, and she did not know if Natasha was telling the truth.
Anthony lay in Natasha's arms. He was deep in thought.
“Okay. The matter is settled. The most important thing we should do now is to go home. Everything will be better when we reach home,” Natasha said.
“Yes,” Denise said and bobbed her head.
Anthony remained silent and gave a perfunctory nod.
Boss' men had committed many crimes. The boy could not let the matter rest so easily.
