Chapter 972 Seen My Daddy
Chapter 972 Seen My Daddy
Inside the room, Boss looked as if he had no will to live.
He laughed, his eyes hollow, as if he had lost all hope in this world.
At that moment, Kenneth looked at him. “Boss, playing dumb won't work with me. There's still something between us that needs to be settled.”
Boss turned around, his gaze fixed on Kenneth. “Settle? Of course, it has to be settled...” As he spoke, his eyes suddenly became fierce. “J, do you know how much I hate you? What you have is something I can't achieve in my entire life... whether it's woman, wealth, or power.”
However, Kenneth's gaze swept over him indifferently. “So, are you begging for mercy now?”
“Beg for mercy? Ha!” he sneered. “Let me tell you, even if I were to die, I would never beg you for mercy. I just don't understand why is the world so unfair. Why can you easily have everything, while I, despite all my efforts to obtain and cherish, end up with nothing?”
“Why? I'll tell you why. It's because your intentions are not pure. That's why you're destined to gain nothing in your life!” Kenneth said to him, emphasizing each word.
“No!” Boss suddenly shouted. “This world is inherently survival of the fittest. If you have something, it just means you're lucky that you've been favored by God. As for me, I didn't lose to you. I lost to fate!”
Kenneth looked at him, laughing mockingly. “The words of the weak!”
No sooner had Kenneth finished speaking than Boss, like a madman, lunged at him, and a fight broke out immediately.
However, after a few rounds, Boss simply couldn't hold up and was directly knocked down heavily onto the ground.
He was looking at the ceiling and also at Kenneth, who was pointing a gun at him.
He laughed.
Kenneth looked at him. “Boss, it's time to atone for what you've done!” he murmured.
At that moment, Boss looked at him. “Does Natasha know?” he asked, then added, “She probably doesn't. Otherwise, knowing her temper, she would have taken my life herself!” Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
“Your blood is too filthy. She shouldn't even have to deal with you in person!” muttered Kenneth.
“Please relay my message to her that I am sorry for what I did to her, but I have no regrets. The time I spent alone with her was the happiest moment of my life...”
Bang!
Without any hesitation, Kenneth shot him right in the heart.
And the words Boss wanted to say got stuck in his throat. He was unable to utter a single sentence.
“I've told you. You're not worthy of mentioning her!” Kenneth muttered.
Boss' mouth opened and closed repeatedly until fresh blood started to overflow.
At that moment, Kenneth looked at him. “Only when you die will she finally gain peace of mind.”
With that, another two loud bangs ensued.
Two more shots were fired.
Watching Boss unable to speak another word, Kenneth curled his lips in satisfaction and walked toward the outside.
However, just as he was about to reach the door, Boss painstakingly pulled out a hand grenade from behind him. He yanked the pin out and suddenly shouted, “J!”
Kenneth turned around.
At that moment, he saw Boss smiling at him.
Upon recognizing what Boss held in his hand, Kenneth instinctively lunged toward the outside.
However, at that moment, there was a thunderous boom.
The room instantly exploded.
The house collapsed, and Kenneth was blasted outside, landing heavily on the ground.
After making good use of the unmanned aircraft to thoroughly sweep the area, Dave finally arrived.
And just like that, Anthony and Cosmos, who were outside, rushed in together.
Vermillion Base's interior had nearly become half a ruin.
There was hardly a spot that was in good condition.
Looking at the scene inside, Anthony and Dave exchanged a glance.
“I'll take care of the loose ends. Even though there's not much danger here anymore, it doesn't mean there aren't any resentful individuals left. Be careful,” Dave cautioned Anthony.
“Mr. Dave, rest assured. I know what I'm doing. I definitely won't run around aimlessly,” Anthony said.
Even though he was uneasy, he felt helpless. After all, if it weren't for him that day, who knew what kind of mess might have occurred?
Glancing at the people behind him, he said, “Some of you stay back to protect him.”
“Yes!”
And so, Dave simply walked away.
Anthony glanced around. By now, the unmanned aircraft had already been summoned back by him.
Seeing numerous missed calls on his phone, Anthony steeled himself, silenced the device, and tucked it into his bag.
Dealing with the matters at hand was of utmost importance at that moment.
With that in mind, Anthony decided to go find Kenneth.
At that moment, Luke emerged after successfully eliminating the enemy. Seeing him, Anthony immediately approached, “Mr. Luke, have you seen my daddy?”
Speaking of which, Luke glanced around. “Boss is now...” He looked around and hesitated for a moment before speaking, “Boss' target is Boss, so he must have gone in the direction of Boss.”
“So, where is it?”
“I'm not quite sure about that...” he said.
Anthony was rendered speechless. His words are inconsequential.
Luke laughed. “All the people here are our men. I'll help you ask around.” Saying that, he casually stopped a person. “Have you seen Boss?”
“No.”
“No!”
“It seems like he went that way,” someone said.
After hearing that, Luke asked, “Over there?”
“Yes. With a man.”
Man? As Luke was pondering who that man could be, Anthony had already started walking in that direction.
“Mr. Anthony!” Luke looked at him, then immediately followed.
Anthony was walking ahead, with Luke following by his side. As they walked, Luke reassured him, “Don't worry. Boss is the toughest among us. If we're okay, he definitely will be too.”
Anthony was walking when suddenly, his right eye began to twitch.
His steps suddenly faltered.
Seeing that, Luke also stopped, looking at him. “What's wrong?”
Anthony stared straight ahead when suddenly, his right eyelid began to twitch uncontrollably. I remember the last time I felt this way was when Nat had a car accident...
A hint of unease flashed through his heart. The next second, Anthony took quick strides, running straight ahead.
Luke was watching, shouting as he followed behind, “What's wrong with you? Why are you running so fast?”
Ignoring everything else, Anthony continued to sprint forward.
As long as he couldn't see Kenneth, he couldn't feel at ease.
As he was running, he suddenly noticed Thalia standing not too far away. Seeing that, he immediately ran over, “Thalia.”
Thalia was standing with her back to him. Hearing the sound, she turned around. Upon seeing Anthony, she was taken aback. “How come you're here?”
“Have you seen my daddy?” Anthony asked directly.
