Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 1020

Kyle casually flipped through his phone for a while. Then, after about ten seconds, he quietly raised his eyes to gaze at Anthony.

At that moment, Anthony looked at Kyle with a teasing gaze. “Have you contacted her?”

Even though Kyle was supposed to be the one in control, at that moment, he was the one being tightly controlled.

That was the oppression from the powerful.

Kyle compromised, heaving a sigh. “Forget it. It's not worth bothering others over such a trivial matter.”

“Is this what you call a minor issue?” Anthony raised an eyebrow.

After all, everything in Darknetz was the most significant thing to Kyle.

Yet, he said it was a trivial matter.

It was as if the sun was rising from the west.

Kyle looked at him, his gaze filled with a certain helplessness. “All right, the five minutes are almost up. Hurry up and call it quits. Don't hold things up. You just want to see the photo, right? I'll give it to you.”

While Anthony was determined to have that picture, the matter had evolved past that already.

Anthony put down his fork and looked at Kyle, his tone full of regret. “With the way you're speaking, anyone would think I was begging you,” Anthony continued, his tone still firm and unyielding.

“Why is your competitive spirit so strong?” Kyle felt resigned.

“Well, the temperament and character one should have depends on what kind of boss they follow, right?” Anthony retorted.

“Boss? First, we're equals. Second, when have you ever treated me as your boss?”

“Everything about Darknetz is in your hands, under your control. Naturally, you're the boss.”

“People who don't know may think I'm a full-time nanny,” Kyle joked about himself.

“No matter what, you're the boss,” Anthony said.

“All right, if you really consider me as your boss, would you dare to threaten me like this?”

“Apologies, but I'm inherently rebellious by nature. I only sympathize with the underdogs and can't stand those who act high and mighty,” Anthony said in a low voice.

Kyle was speechless. In plain terms, he's still targeting me.

Seeing Kyle fall silent, Anthony lowered his gaze to check the time. “You have one minute and fifteen seconds left.”

“Anthony, do you realize that acting like this outside could get you beaten up?” Kyle said to him.

Anthony looked at Kyle, merely smiling without a word.

“Why on earth did I ever get you involved in Darknetz?” Kyle sighed.

Anthony's gaze remained the same.

“Why did I bring trouble to myself without a good reason?”

Anthony maintained a professional smile.

“I'm telling you, you better not beg me for help in the future. Otherwise, I'll make sure you'll regret it.”

“You have forty-eight seconds left.”

“What's the big deal about forty-eight seconds? If push comes to shove, I'll go all in. It's just a base, after all. Besides, the loss won't be mine alone. We'll all share the cost.”

“Thirty-eight seconds.”

“Listen here, Anthony. I've put up with you for quite some time. Do you think you're something special just because you're a bit talented? Let me tell you, for every Anthony in this world, there's an Antonio Watson. I can easily find someone else!”

Anthony nodded. “All right, let's set this matter aside for now. You have twenty-two seconds left.”

“There's no way I'm backing down!” Kyle shook his head immediately.

“All right, I can see that you've made up your mind. In that case, I'll take my leave now,” Anthony said, making a move to stand up.

“Anthony!” Kyle suddenly called out coldly, watching the boy's retreating figure.

However, Anthony didn't seem to care at all. He slowly turned his head to look at Kyle.

Kyle's face was taut and pale, appearing visibly enraged.

Benjamin, standing to the side, opened his mouth, ready to intervene.
