Chapter 556


    Keh frowned at her. “Nat...”


    “Please.” Natasha looked up at him and pleaded, “I miss Grandpa and Old Mr. Hamilton. I want to


    go home.”


    With her pleading gaze and tone, Keh would''ve given in if her request was for anything else.


    Instead, he tightened his balled-up fists when the thought of that video shed across his mind.


    He couldn''t let it go.


    Most importantly, it wasn''t just that incident, as there were others.


    “Nat, you know I would''ve agreed to your request if it was for anything else, but only this I can''t,”


    Keh rejected.


    Natasha''s brows furrowed as she looked at him. “Keh, I wasn''t disadvantaged, nor did I suffer


    any loss in this incident.”


    “That is not the whole point, Nat! With numbers on their side, they wanted your demise. I can''t just


    let this matter slide!” Keh raised his voice.


    “Keh!” Natasha gazed at him in disbelief.


    Yet Keh was adamant.


    Natasha inhaled deeply, dropped her smile, and kept her gaze on Keh. “What are you nning


    to do then?”


    “I''ll kill him!”


    “Okay!” Natasha nodded with agreement.


    Keh narrowed his eyes at her in suspicion. “We''ll do it together,” Natasha said.


    “Nat!” Keh looked at her with resignation in his eyes.


    “I should avenge myself. Even you can''t stop me,” Natasha replied.


    “Do you know how dangerous it is, Nat?” Keh asked with a solemn look.


    “Then do you think it won''t be as dangerous if you went instead?” Natasha questioned. “Keh,


    have you thought about what would happen to me if something happened to you? Have you thought


    about the kids or Old Mr. Hamilton?”


    She paused briefly before continuing, “I already told you I didn''t suffer any loss in this matter, so


    why can''t we just let it slide?”


    Keh stared at her, worried she would find out his reason for doing so if he persisted with his


    decision.


    At that thought, he said, “I just felt bad for you.”


    Natasha looked at him with sincerity. “Keh, I understand your intention. I promise to tell you if I


    was wronged in any way, but I wasn''t.”


    His dark gaze searched her eyes and face for any sign that she was lying. After a while, he finally


    nodded andpromised. “Fine.”


    Natasha was taken aback by his sudden agreement. Surprise filled her impassive eyes. “Does that


    mean you agree?”


    Keh looked at her with resignation. “Do I have any other choice but to agree?”


    Natashaughed at his answer, then tipped her toes, lifting herself to embrace him by wrapping her


    arms around his neck. “Keh, I know you want to do it for me, but please trust my decision. This


    is the best oue possible.”


    Keh wrapped his arms around her and muttered an acknowledgment.


    With a smile, Natasha asked, “When can I return?”


    “It''s up to you.”


    “Perfect! I''ll make the arrangement immediately.”


    “Okay.”

    Meanwhile, the three kids were gathered together in a close huddle.


    “What was the situation today?” Benjamin asked.


    “My n failed,” Denise said straightforwardly.


    “Does Nat know about it?” Benjamin questioned.


    “She not only found out, but she even cussed them out. Have you seen thergest mega screen in


    the city center today? That''s Nat''s doing,” Denise exined.


    Benjamin scrunched his brows at Denise''s exnation. “What''s going on? Nat exposed herself?”


    “Nat didn''t use hers nor Tony''s ount. She used Miguel''s, but she definitely revealed her identity


    as a hacker,” Denise rified.


    Benjamin was still confused. “What went down today exactly?”


    Anthony sighed. “What went down wasn''t the crucial part. All in all, Nat found out about our motive


    and n and asked me to put it on halt.”


    The crease on Benjamin''s forehead deepened. “And then?”


    “There''s no then!”


    “Did you agree?”


    “I didn''t want to, but Nat used the carrot and stick approach to persuade me.” Anthony''s eyebrows


    drew together.


    “So, are we giving up?” Benjamin asked.


    After contemting it shortly, Anthony answered, “Vermillion Base repeatedly target Nat, so I think


    even if we give up, they won''t. This matter won''t just slip away.”


    “Your promise won''t be significant when that timees. If we let them take the lead, we won''t be


    going against Nat''s instruction. Is that what you''re saying?” Benjamin asked.


    Anthony nodded. “You''re right on point.”


    Benjaminughed. “As I expect, you''re not the type who gives up easily.”


    Anthony turned to Benjamin. “What about you? How was it today?”


    Benjamin let out a sigh and flopped onto the couch. “Everything went smoothly at first. I went to Mr.


    Dave''s armory and saw so much stuff!” Excitement filled his eyes as he recalled his memories. “Mr.


    Dave even has many prized collections. It was a feast for my eyes. Also, Daddy taught me how to


    shoot!”


    Hearing Benjamin ryed his experience, Denise shot an envious look at him. “You got the long


    straw among us. You learned something new and got to spend time with Daddy. He even taught you


    how to use a gun himself. Unlike me... Nat managed to trick me into spilling the beans readily,”


    Denise grumbled.


    “The person who had it worst was me. I was fighting at the frontline,” Anthony chipped in.


    Hearing the two''sints, Benjamin continued, “That''s because you haven''t heard about what


    happened after.” The excited glow in his eyes slowly dimmed. “When we saw the words on the


    mega screen on our way back, the vibe turned tense. Moreover, Mr. Dave received a call. If my


    guess is correct, the call should be from the hidden room because he beelined for the hidden room


    once he came back. I''m sure they''ve found something.”


    Benjamin turned his gaze to Anthony. “Oh right, have you told Daddy the truth?”


    Anthony shook his head.


    “You''re still keeping it from him!” Benjamin stared at him in shock. “It''s hard on me to keep the


    secret on your behalf.”


    Anthony frowned. “I haven''t found a good time toe forward. I can''t exactly go up and tell him


    about it casually.”


    “During yourst confrontation with Vermillion Base, Mr. Dave saw your actions. Even though you


    covered it up, iming you were Anonymous'' disciple, Mr. Dave should''ve told Daddy about it, yet I


    still don''t see Daddy asking you about it!” Benjamin said.


    “Or maybe Mr. Dave thought Daddy already knew about it, so he didn''t say anything?” Anthony


    guessed.


    “Is that so?” Benjamin wondered. “That kind of possibility is one in a thousand.”


    Anthony kept silent.


    Denise piped up, “Anthony, I think you should find a chance toe forward with Daddy. Otherwise,


    if Daddy finds out by himself... We don''t know how he''ll act.”


    Benjamin nodded with agreement.


    Anthony pondered about it but couldn''t picture what would follow if that were to happen.


    However, staring into their eyes, Anthony knew they were worried about him. He understood


    following their advice would be beneficial for him. “Got it. I''ll find a chance.”


    Benjamin and Denise nodded.


    Suddenly, Anthony''s phone rang.


    Miguel''s number shed across his phone. Anthony frowned before answering the call.


    “Hello?”


    “Master, I''m calling to give you a heads up. Dave already knew about the incident earlier.”


    The crease between Anthony''s brows deepened.
