Chapter 425

“Now that I think about it, I actually met your dad once,” said Boss suddenly.

Natasha looked up and gazed at the man sitting in front of her.

Boss gazed at her and said seriously, “The two of you look rather similar, actually.”

“Really? Why have you never told me about that before?” Natasha asked stoically.

Boss picked up his glass of wine and took a sip. While he looked at the liquid in the transparent glass,

he mumbled, “I'm telling you now, aren't I? Don't you think such important information should be shared

in person?” Boss set his glass back down on the table.

Natasha's gaze was on him the entire time, but her beautiful eyes shone with suspicion and

indifference.

“You're here because you suspect your father's death is somehow connected to Vermillion Base,

right?” asked Boss.

“It's not just a suspicion,” Natasha corrected him.

She was almost certain of it.

If that wasn't the case, she would've found out the truth behind everything after the occurrence of the

tragic case. Coupled with the information that Anthony had shared with her, it was highly possible that

Vermillion Base was involved. Moreover, Natasha had a gut feeling that everything was somehow

connected, too.

Boss understood what she was saying right away. He thought about it for a moment before asking,

“May I know the reason you think so?”

“Don't you know the people of Vermillion Base's style of doing things?” Natasha answered his question

with a question.

“That's all you're basing this on?” asked Boss.

“I believe that the truth will be revealed now that I am here,” said Natasha in a determined tone.

A strange, inconspicuous glow flashed past Boss' eyes. He looked into Natasha's eyes and asked, “If

what you suspect is true, then what would you do?”

“What do you think I'd do?”

“Exact your revenge?”

Natasha smiled, but remained quiet.

Boss scoffed. “I'm pretty sure you are too weak to even leave Vermillion Base unscathed.”

“Do you really think I have any intention of leaving at all?” Natasha retorted.

Boss stared at her in surprise. “You...”

Natasha didn't say anything else. She simply sneered and took the photos before getting up and

leaving.

“Even so, you won't necessarily succeed,” Boss yelled at her leaving figure.

“Thank you for your warning. I will be sure to give it my all,” replied Natasha without even turning back.

A complicated gleam flashed in Boss' eyes when he watched her leave.

Just then, someone who was standing aside spoke up. “Boss, since she's in our hands now, maybe it's

time to make a request?”

“Let's wait for a little longer.”

“What are we waiting for? Wait... Are you actually going to take her to Vermillion Base?”

Boss' eyes narrowed a fraction. It seemed as if he was pondering about something. That was when the

person said, “You know she wants revenge. What if she hurts the general? We'll be blamed for taking

her there. What will we do then?”

“Do you really think that the general's bodyguards are that useless?” said Boss.

“Even if she fails to hurt him, we will still be reprimanded because we're the ones who took her there.”

“Enough. I know what I'm doing.”

“But, Boss!”

“Am I missing something here? When have I ever needed your permission to do anything at all?” Boss

snapped in annoyance.

The person shut his mouth immediately. “No, that's not what I meant...”

“Then shut up!”

The person had more to say, but he decided against it afterward.

Boss looked in the direction where Natasha had disappeared with complex emotions glimmering in his

gaze.

Natasha Watson... I guess I'll have to verify something.

Meanwhile, Kenneth had just returned when he saw Anthony and Benjamin waiting for him at the

entrance.

“Daddy,” greeted Anthony when he saw the man return. The two boys ran over to their father right

away.

Kenneth regarded them bitterly and forced a smile that didn't reach his eyes.

“I still couldn't get to Nat in time and could only watch her leave...” Kenneth mumbled in a dejected

tone.

It was obvious he was devastated.

That was understandable since he had never felt more defeated.

Neither Anthony nor Benjamin knew what to say to console him.

They saw everything from the surveillance footage. There was nothing much to say, as fate was simply

too cruel.

“This is not your fault, Daddy. Nat is determined to stay away from us, so it's only natural that we can't

find her,” said Anthony.

“He's right. Also, it's not as though we haven't made any progress at all. At least now we know what our

next step is. Locating that other dude will be so much easier than finding Nat.”

Kenneth didn't really know how he felt when he heard the kids comforting him like that.

Dave, who was at the side, sneaked away tactfully and left them alone.

I should give them space to bond.

Anthony sat on the couch in the living room and kept his eyes on Kenneth. “Daddy, I know you're

worried about Nat, but the surveillance footage made it clear that she wasn't kidnapped. She left on her

own accord, so I'm sure she has an ulterior motive.”

“Your mom has actually been there once. The last time she was there, she analyzed the place. This

time, she's going there to meet up with someone. My guess is that she came to an agreement with the

man. That is why she left with him.”

Anthony frowned after hearing that. “Huh? Didn't that guy track Nat down to exact his revenge on you,

Daddy?”

“I don't think that's entirely the case anymore,” replied Kenneth.

“Don't tell me they know Nat's true identity.” Benjamin spoke up. Worry marred his facial expression as

he looked at his brother and father.

Both Anthony and Kenneth turned their attention to Benjamin at that moment. For a moment there, all

three of them fell silent. However, a moment later, Kenneth calmed down and shook his head. “It's

possible, but I don't think that is the case. If he knows who Nat is, things wouldn't have played out the

way it did today.”

“But...”

“Her true identity, if exposed too soon, could lead to her death, but if it is exposed at the exact right

moment, it could save her life. Your mom is smart, and I'm sure she knows what she's doing, so don't

worry, okay?” said Kenneth to his sons.

Anthony nodded in agreement. “That's true. Good hackers are rare these days, and Nat is the top

hacker. For now, at least, she is safe.”

After saying that, Anthony looked at Kenneth and said, “Daddy, has that guy contacted you?”

Kenneth shook his head.

“I caught him looking at you just before he got into the car, so I'm certain he knows that you're there,”

said Anthony.

Kenneth frowned. “Are you saying...?”

“So, I think he will get in touch with you. He might do so to get revenge or to mess with you, but

whatever his intentions may be, he'll contact you,” replied Anthony with determination.

Kenneth couldn't help narrowing his eyes, scrutinizing his son.

He had to admit that Anthony was smart and sharp, as he had come to the same conclusion just

seconds before Anthony shared his analysis.

I guess that's also one of the reasons why Darknetz recruited him.

As Kenneth stared at his boys, he realized that he needed to start seeing them in a new light from now

on.

Anthony caught Kenneth staring at him, so he asked, “W-What's wrong?”

“Nothing,” replied Kenneth as he looked away. “It's late, and you boys should go to bed.”

He was going to leave when his phone suddenly rang.

Fishing his phone out of his pocket, he narrowed his eyes when he looked at the screen.

His gut told him that the call was from Boss.
