Chapter 930 No Longer Just Your Matter


    Dave pondered for a moment, then looked at Cosmos and asked, “How is that dataset now?”


    “It has already been reced, reinforced, and secured. Under normal circumstances, it would go


    unnoticed,” Cosmos said.


    Dave listened, nodding thoughtfully.


    “And there''s more!” said Cosmos, picking up the USB drive. “Dave, he also upgraded and applied


    some changes for us. I just checked, and it''s indeed better than what we had before. It''s just...”


    Cosmos looked at Dave, hesitant to continue.

    At that moment, Dave''s gaze once again fell on the child sleeping on the sofa, and he couldn''t help


    but smile.


    “He really is the spitting image of his mom!” Dave murmured.


    Cosmos noticed Dave''s smile and looked confused. He asked, “Dave, what should we do?”


    Dave retracted his gaze and returned his attention to Cosmos, instructing, “Go ahead and use it.”


    “I admit he''s somewhat impressive,” Cosmos expressed with concern, “but he''s not like one of us at


    DX Group, and he''s just a kid. If he identally leaks our confidential data, the consequences


    would be unimaginable!”


    Dave stared at him and asked, “Do you think he will?”


    The words were stuck in Cosmos'' throat for a moment. Eventually, he answered, “He does seem


    quite mature...”


    “So?”


    “I trust that he won''t, but what I''m talking about are the rules!” Cosmos emphasized.


    “Rules are rigid, but people are flexible,” retorted Dave.


    “Well...”


    “No worries, go ahead and use it.”


    Cosmos nodded in agreement. Although he hadn''t been with DX Group for very long, he had some


    understanding of the matters between Dave and Keh. Plus, considering that Anthony was


    Keh''s child, he understood why Dave trusted the child implicitly.


    “Alright!” Cosmos nodded, adding, “I''m heading over now.”


    Dave nodded. “I''ll leave this to you for now. I need to head back.”


    His words reminded Cosmos of something. Cosmos asked, “Dave, now that we know who did it,


    can our colleagues return to work as usual?”


    Nodding, Dave exined, “Yes. Later, just make up an excuse to the outside world. Don''t say too


    much. Before we act, I don''t want any slip-ups.”


    Cosmos nodded. “I understand.”


    Without uttering another word, Dave headed straight toward the couch. Looking at Anthony, who


    was sound asleep, he gently picked the boy up and ced him on his shoulder, then walked


    straight out the door.


    The car came to a halt in front of a castle, and Dave stepped out, cradling Anthony in his arms.


    It was already veryte at night.


    As soon as Dave walked into the castle, he saw Keh in the living room.


    As if he had been waiting for them, Keh''s gaze fell directly on the person in Dave''s arms as


    soon as they entered.


    “What''s going on?” Keh rose to his feet, asking with concern.


    Dave looked at him and whispered, “He''s just asleep.”


    Keh approached and, seeing that Anthony was unharmed, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.


    “My son was only with you for one night, and he''s already like this?”


    Dave smirked and drawled, “What''s the matter? Feeling sorry?”


    “What do you think?” As he spoke, Keh promptly lifted Anthony out of Dave''s arms.


    Anthony was still sleeping deeply as if he hadn''t slept for days and nights. No matter how much he


    was jostled around, he wouldn''t wake up.


    As Keh carried his son away, Dave said, “He really did me a big favor today. I just don''t know


    why he''s so tired. It''s also clear to see that he doesn''t seem to be in high spirits.”


    Then, he looked at Keh and added, “As a father, try to show more concern when you have the


    time.”


    Keh narrowed his eyes, his gaze falling on the person in his arms. A smile tugged at the


    corners of his mouth. “What''s the use of worrying? It won''t solve the fundamental problem.


    Understanding will only add to each other''s troubles.”


    Listening to Keh''s somewhat mncholic words, Dave narrowed his eyes and said, “What


    you''re saying is...”


    Keh nodded.


    Dave was instantly at a loss for words.


    “Did he find out himself?”


    “I''m not sure how he found out, but Nat had a chat with him today. She essentiallyid all the cards


    on the table.”


    “What about Benjamin and Denise?” Dave asked.


    “They still don''t know!” said Keh.


    Dave nodded before turning his gaze back to Anthony, his eyes filled with a touch of heartache.


    “Anthony is indeed more mature than other children his age, and he can handle things better. Even


    under such emotional stress, he still went to the base with me.”


    Keh pressed his lips together, at a loss for words. After a moment, he collected himself and


    said, “I''ll take him back to his room to rest first.”


    Dave nodded.


    Just as Keh was about to turn away, Dave seemed to remember something and cautioned,


    “Keh, dealing with Vermillion Base is no longer just your problem.”


    Keh narrowed his eyes questioningly.


    Dave said, “I''ll be waiting for you in the study. Come overter so we can discuss the details!”


    Keh was certain that something was about to happen that day. He nodded and said, “All right.”


    With that, Keh headed upstairs.


    Dave stood still, watching them leave. Once they were out of sight, he turned around and headed


    straight for the study.


    Benjamin was strolling in the corridor outside the children''s bedroom when he saw Keh walking


    over with Anthony in his arms.


    Benjamin looked them up and down before asking worriedly, “Daddy, what''s wrong with Tony?”


    Keh simply wore a nonchnt expression and said, “It''s nothing. He just fell asleep.”


    “Asleep?” Benjamin expressed his shock. Then, he nced behind his father. Indeed, Anthony''s


    eyes were tightly shut, appearing to be in a deep, peaceful sleep.


    “Tony... I''ve never seen him like this before,” Benjamin mused out loud.


    “Why aren''t you resting yet? What are you wandering around here for?” asked Keh.


    Benjamin shook his head and said, “I''m not sleepy yet, so I decided to take a stroll.”


    Keh nced at the time and chided him, “You need to rest well to grow.”


    “I know. I''ll go back to my room and sleep right away,” Benjamin replied.


    Keh fell silent and carried Anthony toward his bedroom.


    “Daddy.” Suddenly, Benjamin called out to him.


    Keh turned his head to look at him.


    Benjamin stared at him intently, and asked, “Daddy, can I ask you something?”


    “Sure.”


    “What exactly is wrong with Nat''s health?” Benjamin asked.


    The topic caused Keh''s gaze to dim slightly.


    Benjamin did not shift his gaze but instead locked eyes with Keh, desperately seeking an


    answer.


    A momentter, Keh replied, “It''s nothing serious, just some stomach issues.”


    Benjamin simply didn''t believe this excuse.


    But since Keh responded in such a way, it was clear he had no intention of telling the truth.


    Benjamin didn''t bother to ask any more questions.


    He nodded and said, “All right, I understand.” After saying this, he smiled and said, “I''m going to rest


    in my room now. Good night, Daddy.” Without waiting for any response, he turned and headed


    toward his room.


    As the door closed, Keh''s gaze seemed to darken even more.


    Given their intelligence, these matters couldn''t be kept secret for long.


    Now, even Benjamin had also realized it.


    But as a father, even though he believed in their ability to cope with bad news, he still hoped that


    they could live without worries.


    Turning his gaze away, Keh carried Anthony and headed toward thetter''s room.
