Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 360

Though he did not wish to interfere with the affairs of their gang, Kenneth’s eyes narrowed when he glanced over and saw the necklace fall to the ground.

This necklace...

He bent over to pick the necklace up from the ground and studied it for a moment before turning to look at the man on the ground. “Where did this come from?”

Blood was seeping from the corner of the man's mouth as he gazed at Kenneth with a frown.

Eugene looked as if he understood something and aimed a ferocious kick at the man's torso. “Mr. Hamilton is asking you a question. Answer him!”

The man spoke hastily upon receiving the blow. “The kid gave this to me. I lent him my phone because the necklace looked valuable.”

The veins on Eugene's temples throbbed with rage. “We lost so much for something so small! Imbecile! Why did I ever take on an idiot like you?” At that, he aimed several more vicious kicks at the man's body.

The man on the ground begged for mercy, “I didn't know this would happen! I'm sorry!”

“It's too late now. You know better than anyone how important the goods are to the boss. We’ll see how he's going to deal with you.”

The man's eyes widened with fear at those words. “If the boss knew, I'd be a dead man.”

Eugene gazed at him. His steely gaze contained a tinge of resignation. “Take him away,” he ordered a moment later.

“No! Please, no! You must have a way to save me, don't you?” the man screamed.

Two men came forward and dragged him away.

Kenneth smiled as he observed the proceedings from the side. “You are an impartial man indeed, Mr. Yolk.”

Eugene returned his gaze. “We have misunderstood you earlier, Mr.

Hamilton. I hope you would still help us get to the bottom of this, so we have something to report to the boss.

I will remember your kindness and be at your disposal should you come to require my services one day.”

Kenneth glanced at the necklace in his hand, and his gaze became solemn.

Moments later, he spoke. “I am not known for being shy, Mr. Yolk. I will remember your promise.”

“Of course.”

Kenneth then lowered his gaze. “Very well, then. I will look into this matter and give you an explanation soon.”

Eugene's attitude remained nonchalant. “Thank you in advance, Mr. Hamilton.”

Kenneth’s eyes dropped to the necklace in his hand. “This is evidence. I’ll take it with me.”

Eugene nodded. “As you see fit, Mr.

Hamilton.’

Without another word, Kenneth pocketed the necklace and left.

Fabian had been waiting outside. He hurriedly strode forward when he saw Kenneth emerge.

“The boys were about to dash in if you didn't appear, Mr. Hamilton.” As he spoke, he examined Kenneth from head to toe and heaved a sigh of relief upon finding him in one piece.

He asked, “What's going on, Mr. Hamilton? How did the goods disappear? Could they have orchestrated it themselves as they did not want to accept the favor?”

Kenneth replied, “No. It is unnecessary for them to do that as they know the consequences of offending me, and they have no need to bear this risk. Besides, if they wanted to move the goods from here, they still require our help.”

Fabian nodded along. “Good point. Who could it be, though? Theft of the goods would equate to offending both parties. Who would be so bold?”

Kenneth narrowed his eyes as he muttered, “Yeah. Who would be so bold?”

Perhaps they did not fear him at all, which was why they had the audacity of doing something like that.
