Chapter 369


    Keh went back to the office and straight into his room.


    Before he even sat down, he dialed a number.


    “Dave, it''s me.”


    “J? I''m surprised that you''re calling me. I thought you''d forgotten about me.”


    “Sorry, I''ve been busytely.”


    “I''ve already advised you against quitting. Why did you start up apany? It''s boring and tiring.


    So, what now? Why don''t you quit it ande back? We''ll always wee you," Dave teased.


    “What am I going to do if I go back?”


    “I don''t mind bing your righthand man if youe back. I''ll be your support, okay?”


    Keh smiled. “Won’t that make you miserable?”


    “Not at all. Everything''s up for negotiation as long as you''re willing toe back.”


    “All right, let''s not joke anymore.


    There''s something I need your help


    with.”


    After a pause, Dave mumbled, “I wasn''t joking with you.”


    “I''ve never thought of going back after I made up my mind to quit back then.”


    “You''re still as boring as ever,” Davemented. “Speak your mind. Why have youe to me this


    time?”


    “The same old person. The one with the codename Boss. I want to know the range of his movement


    in Zaewora and who he has met.” “What''s the matter? Have you not resolved the grudge you have


    with this person?”


    “I''m afraid that won''t happen anytime soon,” Keh said through gritted teeth.


    “He seems to have truly enraged you this time,” Davemented. Then, he could not help but ask


    curiously, “Still, J, you said that you''re not in this line anymore, so how did you get on his bad side?”


    Keh was silent.


    “Is it something that you don''t want to talk about?”


    “Not exactly, but I want to tell you after I''m certain of the answer.”


    “Okay, I got it.”


    “How long?”


    “A week.”


    “That''s too long.”


    “Dude, I''m busy. Moreover, the people at Vermillion Base are extremely private people. The one


    you''re looking for isn''t a nobody, so I''ll need time to set things up.” “Two days.”


    “Three!” “Two!”


    “J, if youe back and take over the things, you''ll have the final say. I''ll even do it in one day.”


    “Two days. Once I''m done with things here, I''ll go over right away.”


    Dave froze. “You''reing?”


    “Yes.”


    “Really?” Dave was audibly dubious. “When are youing? I''ll pick you up!”


    “It depends on how quick you are.”


    “J, are you really going to take things into your own hands for this man?”


    “And more.”


    “Oh? And more? Who else?”


    “I told you I''ll tell you once I''m certain of the answer.”


    Dave became quiet to mull over it for a moment. “All right. Two days it is, then. I''ll be waiting for


    you.”


    Keh''s gaze darkened. He said nothing and ended the call.


    Then he turned to look out the window before walking over to it. There was a cold look on his


    wless features as he narrowed his eyes and lifted his defined jaw. The already-sharp lines on his


    face looked even sharper, and there were almostyers of ice veiling over his eyes as his lips curled


    into an arrogant, amused grin.


    Natasha, no matter where you are, I''ll find you.


    Meanwhile, Anthony was sitting in front of theptop on the balcony with furrowed brows.


    His gaze, which was fixed on the phone at the side, was filled with worry and doubt. He had called


    Natasha several times, yet no one picked up his call until now.


    Just as he was mulling about what was going on, his phone rang.


    Hastily, Anthony picked up his phone, only to realize it was actually a call from Thalia. He tensed up


    for a second before answering it.


    “Hello?”


    “The arrangements have been made. Pick up the goods the day after next,” Thalia said.


    “Okay, I got it.”


    “Do you have nothing to ask?”


    “Your arrangements will be fine.” Anthony was preupied with other thoughts and was not in the


    mood to deal with the other matter at all.


    “What''s wrong? You seem distracted. Did something happen?”


    “Nat isn''t picking up my calls...” Anthony started, drawing his brows together. He was afraid that


    something had happened to Natasha again.


    “It''s just a missed call, but you''re already feeling worried?”


    “It''s rare for Nat to not pick up my calls.”


    “It''smon for phones to be out of battery or to be out of signal range,” Thalia pointed out. “Maybe


    she''s in the middle of work and has switched off her phone.”


    Anthony''s brows were still knitted. “I hope so.”


    “All right, if you''re really worried about her, I''ll check on her when I''m on the way, okay?”


    It was only then Anthony was a little more spirited. “Really? Thank you!” “Look at how lively you are


    at the mention of Nat. I hope you will not grow up to be a mama''s boy.”


    “Don''t worry. Someone like Nat won''t raise a kid to be a mama''s boy.”


    “That''s true,” Thalia agreed. “All right, I won''t talk to you about this anymore. I''m just calling to


    inform you about that, and I have other things to make arrangements for. I won''t be going back to


    the manor tonight. I''ll pick you up the afternoon after the next.”


    “Okay. Don''t forget to check on her for me.”


    “Sure.”


    Anthony stared at his phone even after the call. Although Thalia had given him reassuring words, he


    was still ill at ease.


    After all, thest time Natasha did not pick up her call, she had been in a car ident. Hence, it


    was not unusual for Anthony to be worried about Natasha''s current status.


    With those thoughts in mind, Anthony let his eyes drift toward theptop screen.


    Regardless of everything, Natasha had already found out about it, so there


    was no need for him to fear getting discovered.


    At that, a determined look emerged in Anthony''s eyes, and he clicked away the first window before


    hovering his hands over the keyboard. Then he began letting his fingers dance across the keys.


    Anthony typed lines and lines of white-colored codes on the ck screen, and the interface kept


    changing.N?velDrama.Org ? content.


    Just as he was about to track Natasha''s location, Terence suddenly walked toward him with a cup of


    tea.


    At the start, Anthony did not notice Terence’s presence.


    Only when Terence entered the room and softly called out his name did he realize there was


    someone else in the room.


    When Anthony lifted his head and saw the elderly man, Natasha''s reminder shed across his


    mind. Immediately, he closed the page and opened a cartoon.


    “Gramps,” Anthony greeted with a smile.


    When Terence walked over and saw the cartoon on theptop, he frowned. “Why didn''t you use the


    television in the room instead?”


    “The scenery here is nice,” Anthony replied. “I get to watch shows while enjoying the scenery.”


    “You know well how to enjoy life, huh?” As Terence said that, he sat down opposite the boy.


    He stared at theptop in front of the boy and thought about how Anthony had been grimly typing


    away on theptop earlier when he just entered.


    The boy did not seem to be watching cartoons at all. Instead, he seemed to be typing swiftly. For a


    moment, Terence thought he was looking at a young Theodore.
