Chapter 931 Ahead Of Schedule
Afterying Anthony on the bed, Keh pulled over the quilt to cover the former.
Anthonyy neatly on the bed, his palm-sized face looking soft and rosy. At times, others might
even mistake him for a girl.
Anthony''s appearance was undoubtedly aplete inheritance of all Keh''s features.
Looking at him, Keh felt as if he was seeing his own childhood self. He reached out, almost
instinctively wanting to stroke his son''s hair. Anthony was sleeping deeply. Upon closer inspection of
his long eyshes, there were tear stains on his face, evidence of recent crying. Seeing this,
Keh''s gaze instantly darkened, his hand stopping mid-air.
Keh simply watched him for an indeterminate amount of time. Eventually, he withdrew his hand,
lowered his gaze, and turned to leave the room.
Only after the door had closed and the room had fallen intoplete silence did the person lying on
the bed slowly open his eyes.
Anthony''s gaze shifted toward the door, his eyes filled withplexity and conflict.
In fact, from the moment Dave carried Anthony into the living room, thetter had already woken up.
Of course, he had heard their conversation, too. It was just that his feelings were quiteplicated
at the moment, and he genuinely didn''t know how to face them, so he simply pretended to be
asleep.
Looking at the entrance, Anthony''s mind was filled with their conversations and the way Keh
had looked at him just now. Even though he hadn''t seen it, he could still feel it.
At that moment, his eyes expressed an indescribable mncholy.
When Keh walked into the study, Dave was already there, sitting and drinking wine.
Seeing that Keh had entered the room, Dave raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, “Care for
a drink?”
Keh didn''t say a word. He just walked over, picked up Dave''s ss, and drank it.
Dave looked at him, seemingly perceiving his anger. Without a word, he picked up another ss
and poured some more.
“What''s wrong?” Dave asked.
Keh was a man of great self-control. A single drink was enough for him to vent his feelings. He
quicklyposed himself and then looked up at Dave. “What do you need from me?”
Dave said, “I think we might have to bring forward our ns!”

“Huh?” Keh squinted, then looked at him. “Although I''d like that too, I''m curious why.”
Dave took out something that resembled a strip of paper and ced it on the table, sliding it toward
him.
“What?” asked Keh.
“Take a look,” Dave said.
Keh picked it up and examined it closely, then narrowed his eyes. “Is this a number?”
Dave was pouring a drink when he heard his words and couldn''t help butugh. “Keh, even a
fool can tell it''s a number!”
Unperturbed, Keh nced at him once before turning his attention back to the string of
numbers. After a long pause, he asked, “Time?”
Dave paused at his actions, turning back to look at Keh. At first, there was surprise, but it soon
gave way to calmness. Indeed, this is the Keh I know.
Dave held the ss and gently swirled it in his hand.
“Why have you gone silent?” Keh asked him. “Was I right?”
Dave nodded. “That''s right.” With that, he walked around the table and sat across from Keh.
“This number is from a person at DX Group. The entire dark web system spent an entire afternoon
analyzing it. It''s a time!”
Keh narrowed his eyes. “So, what exactly are you trying to say?”
“This is what I was talking about today. Anthony helped me out,” Dave said.
Keh casually ced the note on the table, picked up the red wine in front of him, and said,
“Continue!”
“This is a set of numbers from the dark web... No. To be precise, it''s a set of numbers someone
deliberately ced on the dark web. If it reaches the time indicated here, it will start to automatically
delete some important things from the inside. When that happens, it''s easy for outsiders to break in.
If it''s attacked by a skilled hacker, then the entire dark web system and DX Group''s financial system
will have problems. What do you think will happen then?” Dave asked him in a low voice.
“You''re suggesting someone deliberately put it there?” Keh asked.
Dave nodded and answered, “That''s right. If we hadn''t agreed to let Anthony use the dark web
today, we probably wouldn''t have discovered this issue. So, we should thank him!”
Keh listened, his brows slightly furrowed. “So what?”
“This matter was orchestrated by Vermillion Base behind the scenes, back when you guys hadn''t
arrivedst month.”
A grim look appeared in Keh''s dark eyes when he heard that. “Are you suggesting that they''ve
been targeting DX Group for a while now?”
“That''s right,” Dave replied. He then enunciated, “So, as I''ve been saying, this isn''t just about you
anymore. You don''t need to constantly feel burdened by me because if I don''t take action, they will
be the ones to strike first!”
Keh looked at him, wanting to say something, but his deep, dark eyes were filled with
complexity.
“I''m not trying to get you to do something. If you don''t believe me, you can ask Anthony. He''s the
one who discovered the issue. He was involved throughout!” Dave said.
Kehposed his thoughts and stared fixedly at Dave. “I''m not doubting you. I''m just
wondering why they would set it at this particr time? Why not earlier, or a bitter?”
Dave looked at him. “Your question is also something I''ve been trying to understand, but the
question itself isn''t important. What''s important is how to solve it. As long as we catch Boss,
everything will be clear!”
Keh lifted his gaze to look at him.
“Keh, Boss must be taken down!” Dave said to him, emphasizing each word.
Just as Dave said, the problem itself isn''t what matters. What''s crucial is how to eradicate this issue
from its roots. Narrowing his eyes, Keh looked at Dave and asked, “So, what do you want to
do?”
“The time indicates we have three days. This is only what has been discovered. As for what hasn''t
been discovered, I''m not sure. If we can bring forward the n, even if something unpredictable
happens, we will still hold absolute power!”
Keh nodded when he heard that. “All right!”
“So, you''re agreeing, then?”
“Why wouldn''t I agree if it means Nat can suffer one less day of pain by starting a day earlier?”
Keh queried.
When Keh recalled the tear stains he saw on Anthony''s face, the former realized something.
We always thought we were stronger than we imagined. Now, I know we aren''t that strong. We were
just pretending to be strong. Nat has already suffered enough. I can''t let the kids endure the same
pain.
With that thought in mind, Keh''s gaze became incredibly resolute. “Since we''re doing it earlier,
why don''t we start tomorrow night?”
Dave looked at him and nodded. “Sure!”
The two reached an agreement. Keh raised his ss, his eyes unfathomably deep and
resolute. “In that case, let''s toast in advance to our resounding victory!”
Dave also raised his ss. “Cheers.”
The sound of clinking ss echoed in the room as the two individuals gazed at each other firmly.
This time around, we fight to protect.
