Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 1036

“No problem. I'll wait for your answer,” Kyle said.

“All right, it's getting late. I'm hanging up,” said Anthony.

“Anthony Watson, do you think I'm a fool?” Kyle asked directly.

“What?”

“What are you playing dumb for?” Kyle asked directly. “You still haven't told me about what's going on between you and Shadow Seeker.”

“Oh, you still remember?” Anthony responded teasingly.

“Do you think you're the only one with a good memory?” Kyle retorted.

Anthony looked at him. “It's not that I won't tell you. It's just that even if I do, you won't believe me.”

“It's my business whether I believe it or not. You just need to say your piece,” Kyle said.

“All right.” Anthony nodded. “Shadow Seeker is the closest person to me in this world.”

“Get lost!” Kyle said outright.

“See? I told you, but you wouldn't believe me,” Anthony said helplessly.

Kyle looked at him. “If you're telling the truth, I'll believe you.”

After some thought, Anthony spoke. “Shadow Seeker and I hit it off right away. Besides, she's naturally easy-going and doesn't care about abstract things like rankings. So, she's willing to support me.”

“This statement... does seem somewhat credible,” Kyle said.

Anthony looked quite helpless. Will you look at this? He didn't believe me when I told him the truth, even forcing me to fabricate lies. What can I do?

“How did you make them like you so much, to the point where they're willing to go to great lengths for you?” Kyle asked. “What did you do and say?”

“Do you believe me if I say that I don't need to say or do anything? They would be willing to give in just by seeing me?” Anthony asked.

“What do you think?” Kyle retorted.

Fine. He doesn't believe me. After a moment of thought, Anthony continued, “That's because I care about them when I'm free, greet them, and even tell them I would care for them in their old age. I probably moved them. I guess that's how it happened...”

Anthony fabricated the story without even blinking an eye.

However, the person on the other end of the phone found it believable and was even astounded.

“You even promised to take care of them in their twilight years? Isn't that equivalent to having them adopt you as a son? Anthony, you're something else. You're even willing to abandon your principles for this,” Kyle said.

Hearing his mockery, Anthony raised an eyebrow. “What's the matter? I'm willing to do so. Is there a problem?”

“All right, I see where I lost now. It's my unwillingness to stoop so low. I concede defeat!” Kyle said.

Anthony knew exactly what he meant and responded directly, “You know what, I am indeed their son. Not only would I take care of them in their old age and see them to their end, but there's also nothing I wouldn't do for them. I wouldn't utter a word of refusal.”

“Anthony, if your dad knows about this, he'll likely wake up just to give you a good scolding.”

“He knows about this.”

“He knows?” Kyle was even more shocked. “He agreed as well?”

“Absolutely.”

Listening to that, Kyle felt that matter was getting more and more mysterious. “Is the teaching in your family this open?”

“Your mindset is too narrow,” Anthony replied bluntly.

“You're not just spouting nonsense at me, are you?” Kyle asked.

Anthony laughed. “See? You don't believe me whether I tell the truth or a lie.”

“I can't even tell which of your words are true and which are false now,” Kyle said.

With a smile, Anthony said, “So, your intelligence is limited.”

“Anthony Watson!”

“It's getting late. I need to take care of your health, so I'm not staying up late. That's it. I'm hanging up.” Anthony decisively ended the call without waiting for Kyle to say anything else.
