Boss cast Keh a hard stare.
“That''s for the bullet you put in me thest time around,” Keh said.
“Keh, if you''re so capable, just kill me already!” Boss yelled.

“No!” Keh shook his head. “Why are you so gruesome? Since when am I capable of killing
people?”
Seeing how angry Boss was, Keh added, “Instead of killing someone, wouldn''t it be more
interesting to torture someone?”
With that, he sized Boss up and said, “I''ll put a bullet in each of your legs and send you back to
Vermillion Base. I wonder if they would want to keep a disabled person around!”
“J!”
Keh stared at him and said, “Or you could choose for yourself. I''ll let you pick which part of your
body you want me to shoot at!”
Boss chuckled coldly in response. “J, you''re living up to your name, aren''t you? You''re an expert in
torturing.”
“Thanks for yourpliment.” Keh smiled.
Seeing that Boss was still unwilling to talk, Keh asked, “So? Have you made your decisions? Do
you want to answer my questions, or do you want holes in your body?”
Boss stared at him for a while and uttered, “Isn''t that woman Theodore''s daughter?”
Hearing that, Keh kept his smile away. “Theodore?”
“What? You do know who''s Theodore, right?” Boss asked. “Theodore is your woman''s father!”
Although Keh wasn''t sure about that, he had his suspicions.
“It seems like you know a lot.” Keh narrowed his eyes.
Boss smirked and looked at Keh mockingly. “You look like you don''t know sh*t!”
“It''s none of your business!” Keh retorted.
Boss acted casual and raised his brows. “In that case, your rtionship with her isn''t even that strong.
J, why would you do this just for a woman?”
“Why? Are you trying to change my mind?”
“If we were to work together, we''ll surely have a bright future. By then, we''ll control Zaewora and
Aploth. Doesn''t that sound nice?” Boss asked.
Keh narrowed his eyes and cast Boss a scornful nce. “Is that so?”
“If we work together, we''ll control both the authorities and also the underground circles!”
“You''re an ambitious man, aren''t you?”
Boss cost Keh o hord store.
“Thot''s for the bullet you put in me the lost time oround,” Keh soid.
“Keh, if you''re so copoble, just kill me olreody!” Boss yelled.
“No!” Keh shook his heod. “Why ore you so gruesome? Since when om I copoble of killing

With thot, he sized Boss up ond soid, “I''ll put o bullet in eoch of your legs ond send you bock to

“J!”
Keh stored ot him ond soid, “Or you could choose for yourself. I''ll let you pick which port of your

Boss chuckled coldly in response. “J, you''re living up to your nome, oren''t you? You''re on expert in

“Thonks for yourpliment.” Keh smiled.
Seeing thot Boss wos still unwilling to tolk, Keh osked, “So? Hove you mode your decisions? Do

Boss stored ot him for o while ond uttered, “Isn''t thot womon Theodore''s doughter?”
Heoring thot, Keh kept his smile owoy. “Theodore?”
“Whot? You do know who''s Theodore, right?” Boss osked. “Theodore is your womon''s fother!”
Although Keh wosn''t sure obout thot, he hod his suspicions.
“It seems like you know o lot.” Keh norrowed his eyes.
Boss smirked ond looked ot Keh mockingly. “You look like you don''t know sh*t!”
“It''s none of your business!” Keh retorted.
Boss octed cosuol ond roised his brows. “In thot cose, your relotionship with her isn''t even thot strong.
J, why would you do this just for o womon?”
“Why? Are you trying to chonge my mind?”
“If we were to work together, we''ll surely hove o bright future. By then, we''ll control Zoeworo ond
Aploth. Doesn''t thot sound nice?” Boss osked.
Keh norrowed his eyes ond cost Boss o scornful glonce. “Is thot so?”
“If we work together, we''ll control both the outhorities ond olso the underground circles!”
“You''re on ombitious mon, oren''t you?”
“Isn''t that how every man should be? Why would you trade a woman for a business partner, J?” Boss
tried to persuade him.
However, Keh wasn''t going to fall for it.
He shed a smile and said, “I wasn''t born an ambitious man. Instead, I''m willing to go crazy for a
woman!”
With that, Keh changed his expression and aimed the gun at Boss once again. “So? Are you going
to talk?”
Seeing that his n had failed, Boss smiled. “Theodore was Vermillion Base''s first batch of hackers.”
Keh frowned at the sentence. Who would''ve known that Natasha''s father was also a hacker? Well,
no wonder Natasha is who she is today. She''s continuing her father''s legacy. At times, life is full of
surprises, isn''t it?
With that in mind, Keh asked, “Do you know Theodore died?”
Boss froze momentarily and answered, “I do.”
“Do you?” Keh raised a brow. “Do you know how he died, then?”
“Did Theodore''s daughter stop my men at the hotel entrance because she wanted to know how did
Theodore die?” Boss asked.
Keh''s expression turned grim. “You''re not the one asking questions.”
Boss froze for a moment and smiled. It seemed like he had figured something out.
“Keep talking!” Keh demanded.
Boss thought for a while and said, “I don''t know much about Theodore''s death.”
Keh stared at him inquisitively because he didn''t want to miss a single detail. After a while, he
asked, “Are you sure?”
Although Boss was trying his best to hide it, Keh could tell he knew something.
“Theodore was a prominent figure there, wasn''t he?” Keh asked.
“Yes. He was.”
“Then? When something happened to someone of his stature, didn''t you guys know about it? Didn''t
you guys try to get to the bottom of it?”
Boss lowered his gaze and raised his gaze again to look at Keh. “At that time, he had already left
Vermillion Base. Hence, he had nothing to do with us. Who would bother to find out about his death?”
“He left?”
“Yes!”
Keh shot Boss a look, and he felt as though Boss was telling the truth. Still, there''s something fishy
about his reaction just now.
“You really don''t know about Theodore''s death?” Keh asked again.
Right then, Boss raised his gaze toward him and asked, “What do you think?”
There, the two of them were staring intently at each other.
Suddenly, two gunshots rang out. A group of men was dashing toward them. Keh instinctively
turned and took cover.
At the same time, Boss turned in the opposite direction to take cover.
“Let''s go, Boss!” someone shouted.
Boss turned toward Keh and shot him a hostile look.
“Boss!” someone shouted again.
Boss stared at Keh and shed a cold smirk. “J, we''ll meet again in the future!” With that, he got
away with the group of men providing him cover.
At that moment, Fabian arrived with his men. “Mr. Hamilton, are you all right?”
Keh shook his head.
“Chase after them!” Fabian yelled.
“Don''t!” Keh ordered and nced in the direction Boss had escaped.
“But—”
“If you guys go after them, they might fight back! They aren''t ordinary men!” Keh interrupted.
Hearing that, Fabian nodded.
Keh then turned toward the dock and asked, “How are things?”
“Everything''s loaded, Mr. Hamilton! It''s a big batch of goods!” Fabian answered.
Keh dipped his gaze. “Let''s go check it out.”
In the meantime, Thalia said in the car, “The goods are getting brought away! If they leave, we''ll miss
our chance!”
Anthony frowned and hesitated.
“We have to act now!” Thalia urged.
Anthony finally made his decision and said, “Let''s go!”
With that, Thalia and Benjamin got out of the car at once.
As they were just about to walk toward the dock, Thalia suddenly halted in her tracks, and she was
stumped. “Wait. Am I imagining things?”
Upon taking a closer look, she eximed, “Is that Keh?”
She then turned back and looked at Anthony and Benjamin. “Are my eyes fooling me?”
Benjamin''s expression turned solemn. No wonder Anthony had been hiding the man''s identity! Not only
are we stealing from the thieves, but we''ve also ended up going up against our father!
