Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 950

Chapter 950 Just Tell Me

As the opponent went offline, Cosmos stuttered, “D-Did you just try to poach him?”

Anthony arched an eyebrow. “Is there a problem?”

“Are you seriously planning to poach a member of Vermillion Base?”

“Why not?”

Cosmos took a deep breath. “Aren't you afraid that this might be a trap and they might take revenge on you?”

Anthony looked at him after a moment of thinking. “I have a question for you.”

“What?”

“What's your purpose in being a hacker?” he asked.

Cosmos paused for a moment. “Um... I hadn't thought of it before.”

“Give it some thought now,” Anthony uttered.

Cosmos eyed him and replied hesitatingly, “For... money, I guess?”

“People often say that we hackers are unscrupulous, but in reality, we serve money instead of people. As long as the money we are offered is enough, everything is negotiable!” Anthony explained. “So, why would he say no if I offer him a handsome sum?”

Cosmos was momentarily at a loss for what to say. It's amazing enough that this brat is so good at computers. Why is his logical thinking way ahead of his age, too?

“Sure, but if you put it that way, since he'll betray Vermillion Base for money, he'll betray you for the same reason, too!” Cosmos warned.

Anthony thought his words made sense. “Now, that's a good reason to dissuade me.”

“Right?”

“But, he claims that his relationship with Vermillion Base is merely a partnership. He's not one of their employees.”

“So you just believe whatever he says?”

Anthony nodded. “I do.”

Cosmos was exasperated. “Can you please stop being so naive?”

Naive?

Anthony lifted his eyebrows slightly and leaned over to stare into Cosmos' eyes. “Do you really think so?”

Cosmos was momentarily stunned by the look in the boy's eyes.

Not to mention his eyes, which bore a striking resemblance to Kenneth's, his actions alone from earlier were not something an ordinary person could accomplish.

Even Cosmos, along with all his buddies from the dark web, might not be a match for him.

What right do I have to call him naive?

With that thought in mind, Cosmos immediately dropped his arrogant demeanor and shook his head. “No, not really.”

Only then did Anthony withdraw his gaze. “I really don't know what Nat sees in you.”

Even though his voice was faint, Cosmos could still hear it clearly.

He swore that ever since he saw Natasha's operation last time, he had been utterly in awe and idolized the woman. Even though they had connected on WhatsApp, he still hadn't mustered the courage to ask her a single question.

Hence, his eyes lit up when he heard what Anthony said. Snapping his head over to look at the boy, he asked excitedly, “W-What did you just say?”

Anthony's gaze lingered on the screen nonchalantly as if he was waiting for something. He spoke languidly. “Nothing.”

“No, I heard everything. You were talking about Nat...” Cosmos said.

“Did I?” Anthony raised his brow.

“Yes!” Cosmos nodded fervently.

“I forgot,” Anthony said casually.

Cosmos was helpless. “How could you forget? You literally just mentioned something about Nat seeing something in me, right?”

“Hmm... Did I? I wonder...” Anthony deliberately dragged his voice.

Cosmos was frustrated, knowing Anthony was doing it on purpose.

It was payback because he called him naive just now.
