Chapter 478
Keh said nothing as he continued to walk, aplex look on his face.
Anthony quickly fell into step beside his father, but when he realized thetter didn''t seem interested
in talking, he decided to break the silence. “Daddy, are you taking this money to have a showdown
with Boss?”
Upon hearing that, Keh froze for a moment.
I don''t want the kids to be involved in this matter, but how on earth do I stop them?
Undeterred by his father''s silence, Anthony added, “Has he contacted you again?”
Instead of replying, Keh began walking faster, to the point where Anthony struggled to keep up.
Left with no choice, the boy ran forward and grabbed his father''s arm. “Daddy, haven''t we just
reached an agreement? Why are you doing this again?”
Keh finally stopped in his tracks and lowered his gaze to Anthony. “Do you know what Nat
reminded me the most when we met?”
“I do! She told you to protect Benjamin and me!” Anthony replied. Thanks to the microphone, I heard
their conversation loud and clear!
“Good that you know.”
“Daddy, we''re not saying we want to get involved. As long as you tell us what''s happening, we won''t
cause any trouble. But if you continue the silent treatment, we can only keep guessing and trying
until we figure things out ourselves. Who knows what might happen if we go down that route?”
Keh gazed at his son.
The kid''s not even at my waist, yet he dares stare at me with so much persistence and
stubbornness.
“Yes. I''m using this money to have a showdown with Boss.”
“But hasn''t Nat already given you all the information about Boss?” Anthony asked.
“If I suddenly take a step back from everything and put on an air of indifference, don''t you think it''ll
only arouse Boss'' suspicions even more?”
“Well, that''s not wrong...”
“Moreover, what happens if Boss really thinks I''ve given up on Nat and decides she''s no longer
useful to him? Do you think he''ll let her off easily?”
After pondering for a while, Anthony realized his father''s words made a lot of sense. “So, the best
n now is to work together and buy time for Nat, isn''t it? Only then can we create opportunities for
her.”
Keh gazed at Anthony as a smile slowly crept across his face. “That''s right.”
Anthony, too, nodded and broke into a smile. “I got it!”
“Now that you know the n, I don''t want you acting recklessly on your own. Do you understand?”
“Yes, Daddy!”
With that, the father and son continued walking away, but this time, Keh made sure to slow
down for Anthony to keep up with him.
A few secondster, Anthony''s voice rang out again. “I only followed you earlier because I didn''t
know what you were up to, Daddy. As long as you keep an open line ofmunication with us, I
can assure you we won''t do anything reckless.”
“As parents, we only want to protect our children and give them the best.”
Anthony felt his heart skip a beat, and for some inexplicable reason, he was happy to hear those
words from his father.
“But Daddy, you know it''s just a matter of time before Benjamin and I embark on our training with
Darz. That''s not something we can change. Are you going to keep following us and protecting
us?”
Hearing that, Keh lowered his head to look at the boy, only to have thetter meet his gaze.
“Instead of protecting us, why don''t you teach us something more practical, Daddy? That way, we
can deal with new situations and even defend ourselves if the need arises!”
“Is that what you think?”
Anthony nodded excitedly, all wide-eyed and sincere.
After giving it some thought, Keh finally nodded. “Okay.”
“Does that mean you''ve agreed to it?”
“Of course.”
Anthony smiled. “That''s more like it, Daddy! If you teach a man to fish, you''ll feed him for a lifetime!”
“For someone who grew up overseas, you sure are good with these popr Chanaean sayings.”
“Of course! Nat has always told us that we should learn Chanaean well,” Anthony said proudly. “I''ve
even memorized the entire dictionary.”
Keh looked at his son in astonishment. “You memorized the dictionary?”
“Yes!”
Unable to hold it in any longer, Keh let out a chuckle.
“What''s wrong? Is there a problem with that?” Anthony quizzed.
Keh turned to his son and shook his head. “I did the same when I was your age, except it was
the Ustranian dictionary that I memorized.”
Needless to say, Anthony felt just as shocked. Is that what fate is? That''s so amazing!
“Daddy, both Great-grandpa and Gramps have said I''m a replica of you. Do you think we''re alike?”
“Have you not seen my childhood photos?”
Anthony shook his head.
Keh took out his phone and browsed the gallery. As soon as he found the photo, he handed his
phone to Anthony. “Here. Check it out yourself.”
The moment Anthonyid his eyes on the photo, his brow knitted into a frown.
Oh, my, the boy in the photo looks just like me! It wouldn''t even be an exaggeration to say he''s my
clone.
“Daddy, is that you as a kid?”
Keh smirked. “What do you think?”
Anthony stared at the photo for a while more before letting out a sigh. “No wonder you didn''t have
any questions when you first saw me at the hospital. You already knew, then, didn''t you?”
“Speaking of then, only Benjamin and Denise kept hanging around me while you kept yourself
hidden. Weren''t you worried that your appearance would expose everything?”
Once again, Anthony was rendered speechless.
Fine. At this point, there''s no use criticizing anyone. We''re both the same.
“That''s because I didn''t know you well!” Anthony grumbled.
“But now you do?”
Anthony thought about it before giving a firm nod. “Yes!”
“What do you know about me, then?”
“Daddy, aren''t we supposed to keep questions and answers like those to ourselves?”
Upon hearing that, Keh smiled.

Anthony, too, broke into a grin.
Just like that, the father and son pair continued chatting as they walked, the sun shining warmly
down on them.
Soon, they arrived at the hotel and saw Dave and Benjamin standing at the entrance.
A car pulled in front of them, and Dave began talking to the man who had just stepped out.
Keh and Anthony made their way over, and thetter called out, “Miguel?”
Miguel looked back and smiled when he saw the boy. “Hey, kid, it''s been a while!”
Anthony furrowed his brow. “Why are you here?”
“Oh, it''s not just me,” Miguel replied. “A few of us havee!”
Several others immediately stepped out of the car, and from the looks of it, half of the people in
Dave''s hidden room had turned up.
Dave promptly turned his attention to Keh and Anthony. “I''m sure Boss will be taking action
soon, so I got them over to help.”
