Chapter 473


    After racking his brain, Anthony reassured Keh, “Daddy, there''s no need for you to be worried


    about Anonymous. He doesn''t pose a threat to you whatsoever.”


    “Worried?” The words caused Keh to raise his brow. “Do you think I''m worried?”


    “Um, are you not?” Anthony questioned, for the jealousy Keh was emitting couldn''t be any more


    obvious.


    Unexpectedly, Keh let out a chuckle before a contemptuous expression descended upon his


    face. “Despite his capability on the inte, he''s just someone who hides behind aputer. In real


    life, do you think I''ll see him as a threat?”


    Anthony was taken aback.


    Even though Daddy doesn''t know that I''m Anonymous, no one can take such words lying down.


    After all, a man''s pride can never be challenged.


    At that moment, Anthony felt as if there was something stuck in his throat. He suppressed his


    emotions and calmly rebutted, “Daddy, how do you know that he''s ipetent in real life?


    Considering how capable he is on the inte, I''m sure he''s equally impressive in real life.”


    Keh merelyughed with disdain.


    Nevertheless, Anthony continued to endure the humiliation.


    “Remember, a really ambitious man will never be satisfied by staying behind the scenes. That''s the


    reason why he''s ipetent,” Keh said confidently, his eyes brimming with certainty.


    Anthony''s mind went nk as he looked at his father.


    Keh''s words had hit the nail on the head.


    It was true that he never wanted to stay behind the scenes forever. Not only did he want to


    dominate the inte, but he also wanted to do his best in real life.


    Unfortunately, he was still a child and was not strong enough yet. Thus, without the ability to protect


    himself, he had no choice but to hide behind the screen.


    Despite that, he never nned to hide forever.


    Holding that thought, Anthony felt inexplicably depressed. Hence, he abandoned his initial n to


    come clean.


    Daddy, I''ll let you continue feeling exasperated.


    Noticing the minute change in Anthony''s gaze, Keh asked, “What''s wrong? Am I mistaken?”


    Anthony maintained a faint smile on his face. “Daddy, let''s not jump to conclusions. How do you


    know that he doesn''t want to make himself known? Since you''re unaware of his identity, you


    wouldn''t recognize him even if he was standing in front of you.”


    Keh narrowed his eyes. Anthony seems to be adamant about defending Anonymous today.


    He threw the question back at Anthony. “If he was indeed standing right in front of me but refused to


    reveal his identity, wouldn''t he be even more of a coward?”

    Anthony was lost for words. He turned toward Benjamin and noticed that thetter was trying to


    hold back hisughter.


    Anthony gave him a warning look, and Benjamin nodded, signaling that he would try to control


    himself.


    Then Anthony returned his attention to Keh. “Daddy, the inte is the future, and Anonymous


    is a famous hacker. Do you know how many people fear and respect him? Aren''t you being too


    harsh with your criticisms?”


    “I don''t look down on his capability, but aren''t his skills inferior to that of Nat?”


    Anthony was enraged at Keh''s scathingments.


    “Daddy, he isn''t less skilled than Nat. He''s just letting her get ahead on purpose.”


    “Oh? How do you know about that?”


    “I...” Anthony stared at him. “Anonymous told me.”


    Keh gave him the side-eye. “In that case, there''s less reason for me to worry.”


    “What do you mean?”


    “If a man submits to a woman, he no longer stands a chance with her. Moreover, Nat—with her


    inherently dominant character—will not fall for someone like that.”


    Anthony fell silent. He was in the midst of figuring out how to turn things around when Keh


    added, “Also, Anthony, when he says such things, he''s probably just making excuses for his


    ipetence. You need to take his words with a pinch of salt.”


    Anthony took a deep breath.


    Argh, Daddy''s words are just killing me!


    At that moment, Anthony felt the full force of Keh''s sharp tongue.


    He had nned to reveal the truth and give Keh a scare. However, he now decided against


    doing so.


    For the time being, I''ll just keep it to myself. Only when I''m finally standing at the pinnacle of the


    world will Ie back and revisit this topic with him.


    Holding that thought, Anthony—with an awkward smile on his face—took a deep breath and said,


    “Daddy, don''t worry. Just as how Nat has praised me for my observation skills, I''m confident that


    Anonymous isn''t how you''re making him out to be.”


    “Is that so?”


    Anthony nodded. “Yes!”


    Detecting the displeasure in Anthony''s tone, Keh leaned in. “Are you upset because of what I


    said about him?”


    “No!” Anthony forced himself to smile in an effort to hide the anger welling up inside him.


    Even though Keh was unaware of Anthony''s rtionship with Anonymous, he could still sense


    the slight change in Anthony''s mood and how protective Anthony was over Anonymous.


    Although he was unhappy about it, he knew the issue wasn''t a priority now.


    “Anthony, have you seen him before?” Keh asked out of the blue.


    Anthony nodded at him. “I have.”


    “Then how does he look like?”


    After a brief silence, Anthony replied, “It''s hard to describe, but he''s certainly different from what you


    have in mind.”


    “Really?”


    Anthony nodded.


    Pursing his lips, Keh scrutinized Anthony for a long while. “In that case, I''m even more curious


    now. Set up a meeting, then. I know well that he''s somewhere not far away from us.”


    Anthony pondered briefly. “What if he doesn''t want to meet you?”


    “Doesn''t want to? Or doesn''t dare to?”


    Anthony was about to explode.


    Argh, I can''t stand him anymore!


    He wanted to scream at the top of his lungs, but he managed to suppress it with much effort.


    In truth, he resembled Keh so much that even their temper was identical.


    Clearly, he was livid, but he still insisted on maintaining an aloof expression as if he wasn''t bothered


    at all.


    “Anonymous has said that he doesn''t want to show his real face to anyone,” Anthony said.


    Keh let out a sneer. “I knew it. The only ce he''s so called invincible is behind theputer


    screen.”


    No sooner had Keh spoken than Anthony stormed out with his fists clenched.


    He even mmed the door behind him.


    Keh furrowed his brows and shifted his attention to Benjamin.


    Uh...


    Benjamin let out an awkwardugh. “He has probably gone to check with Anonymous... I''ll go check


    on him.”


    He slipped away before Keh could react.


    Left alone in the room, Keh watched them from behind while falling into deep thought.
