Chapter 919 Anthony Learns About The Entire n
Arriving at that thought, Keh turned him. “I''ll allow you to participate, and you can be in charge of
DX''s dark web system, but Anthony, I need you to promise me something.”
Anthony would have agreed to ten promises.
He turned to meet Keh''s gaze. His eyes sparkled with excitement. “I promise!”
“You haven''t even heard it yet!”
“As long as I''m involved, I''m in, no matter what it is!” Anthony dered enthusiastically.
At this moment, nothing was more important to him than getting involved.
Keh studied his son with his beady eyes. Despite the boy''s conviction, a request like this should be
stated upfront.
“Obey orders during the mission. Never act on your own ord,” Keh said, meeting the boy''s
gaze.
Anthony nodded at once. “Of course!”
Despite Keh''s extreme reluctance to involve Anthony in this, he knew that Anthony''s abilities had
already determined the course of this event; his involvement was inevitable.
With that thought in mind, Keh stroked the boy''s head.
It was something Natasha would do.
Anthony looked at him. A faint smile was ying on his lips.
Dave sighed helplessly. “So, are you handing over DX''s dark web system just like that?”
Keh turned to regard Dave at the mention of the matter. “Just give him some administrative rights.
He won''t be able to see the core secrets anyway.”
“Given his abilities, do you really think we can keep it from him?” Dave retorted.
This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
Listening in on the conversation, Anthony chimed in, “Do youck confidence in your dark web system,
Mr. Dave?”
“I... of course I''m confident!”
“So, what are you still worried about?” Anthony retorted. “Besides, I have professional integrity. I
wouldn''t pry into secrets that are not mine without permission.”
Dave snorted. “The first time I heard the term ''professional integrity'' was from your father''s mouth. Yet,
he was nothing but unprofessional.”
Anthony turned to look at Keh, looking surprised.
Thetter exined, “All''s fair in war.”
ring at him, Dave retorted, “More like shamelessness.”
Keh pursed his lips, about to say something, but Anthony interjected, “Hold it, Daddy, Mr. Dave.
Now is not the time for an argument!”
“Then when is?”
“Then when is?”
Both adults asked in unison.
Even their voices were surprisingly in sync.
Anthony looked at them. “I want to know your entire n!”
At the boy''s request, Keh and Dave exchanged another nce.
The pair were looking at each other as if trying to figure something out.
Naturally, Anthony knew what they were doing. Gazing at them, he said earnestly, “Since you''ve
decided to involve me, Daddy, Mr. Dave, shouldn’t you tell me the truth? That way, I can manage my
schedule better and allocate the most time for you!”
Dave leaned backzily onto the leather chair as he turned to Keh. “You decide. He''s your son, so
you have the final say.”
Anthony then turned his gaze toward Keh.
After much hesitation, Keh met his gaze and nodded.
Only then did they reveal their entire n to Anthony.
After he heard it, Anthony narrowed his eyes, turning his gaze back to Dave.
“Mr. Dave...”
Dave chuckled lightly. “What? Are you worried about me?”
For a moment, Anthony did not know what to say. After hesitating for a while, he began slowly, “I
promise you, Mr. Dave, if DX ever needs my help, I will not refuse.”
Daveughed. “If you say so. I''ll be holding you to that promise. With you and your mother, DX will be
famous!”
“I''m serious, Mr. Dave,” Anthony said earnestly.
Dave met the boy''s gaze. “I know you meant it,” he said seriously. “I''ll remember what you said, and I
won''t hesitate to hold you to it. Of course, I hope that day will nevere.”
Anthony met his gaze. “Me, too. I hope that such a day will nevere.”
Gazing at each other, the pair shared augh.
Then, they spent a long time going over the n in the room.
After a good part of the day, Keh and Anthony finally emerged from Dave''s study.
The pair walked side by side.
“Does Nat know about this, Daddy?” Anthony asked.
Keh nodded. “She does. The position you''re currently in was originally meant for her, but since she
is... So, it has to be you now!”
Keh knew very well what the omission implied, and so did Anthony. Like an unspoken agreement
between father and son, neither of them brought it up. Anthony gazed up at him. “So, Daddy, were you
nning to have me as a substitute all along?”
“You were the one who volunteered,” said Keh.
“That''s because you know I would ask to join,” Anthony replied.
Keh remained silent.
Anthony pursed his lips as they walked on. “How could he even scheme against his own son?” he
muttered instinctively.
Keh grabbed his son by the cor when he heard that. “Wait a minute. How was I scheming
against you?”
“Um... You took advantage of my thoughts!” Anthony said at once, rearranging his expression as he did
so.
Keh gave a light chuckle. “Two-faced, I see.”
“You ask for so much, Daddy. Isn''t having two faces the least I deserve?” Anthony retorted.
Keh patted him lightly on the head. “Nonsense.”
Anthony chuckled. A rare smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.
“If you''re unwilling, you can opt out at any time,” Keh said as he marched forward.
“Where else can you find someone as qualified as me, Daddy?” Anthony argued at once.
“So, you think the world woulde crashing down without you?” Keh asked in a soft, mocking
tone.
“The world will keep revolving without anyone, but Daddy, you wouldn''t entrust Nat''s safety to a
stranger. You don''t trust anyone else but me,” Anthony said, enunciating every word.
Keh was slightly taken aback by those words.
After a long silence, he finally spoke, “You know everything.”
It was only then that Anthony realized what he had said. He averted his gaze, lowering his eyes. “Know
what?”
Aware that Anthony was trying to avoid the confrontation, Keh did not expose his son. Instead, he
pulled Anthony''s head into his embrace and stroked his head as a gesture offort.
Anthony''s nose soured. He was on the verge of shedding tears again.
However, as a man, Anthony refused to show his vulnerable side.
With the mission so close, he had to prove that he was a man capable of standing on his own.
“Rest assured, Daddy. We will seed!” Anthony asserted in a muffled voice.
“Mm!” Keh nodded, his gaze fixed elsewhere. Then, he murmured, “Nat will be fine too, I promise!”
As he spoke, he gazed down at Anthony, who leaned into Keh''s embrace, his face half-hidden,
rendering his emotions unreadable. Keh''s lips curled into a strained smile as he stroked Anthony''s
head a little more forcefully.
