Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 369

Kenneth went back to the office and straight into his room.

Before he even sat down, he dialed a number.

“Dave, it's me.”

“J? I'm surprised that you're calling me. I thought you'd forgotten about me.”

“Sorry, I've been busy lately.”

“I've already advised you against quitting. Why did you start up a company? It's boring and tiring. So, what now? Why don't you quit it and come back? We'll always welcome you," Dave teased.

“What am I going to do if I go back?”

“I don't mind becoming your righthand man if you come back. I'll be your support, okay?”

Kenneth smiled. “Won’t that make you miserable?”

“Not at all. Everything's up for negotiation as long as you're willing to come back.”

“All right, let's not joke anymore.

There's something I need your help

with.”

After a pause, Dave mumbled, “I wasn't joking with you.”

“I've never thought of going back after I made up my mind to quit back then.”

“You're still as boring as ever,” Dave commented. “Speak your mind. Why have you come to me this time?”

“The same old person. The one with the codename Boss. I want to know the range of his movement in Zaewora and who he has met.” “What's the matter? Have you not resolved the grudge you have with this person?”

“I'm afraid that won't happen anytime soon,” Kenneth said through gritted teeth.

“He seems to have truly enraged you this time,” Dave commented. Then, he could not help but ask curiously, “Still, J, you said that you're not in this line anymore, so how did you get on his bad side?”

Kenneth was silent.

“Is it something that you don't want to talk about?”

“Not exactly, but I want to tell you after I'm certain of the answer.”

“Okay, I got it.”

“How long?”

“A week.”

“That's too long.”

“Dude, I'm busy. Moreover, the people at Vermillion Base are extremely private people. The one you're looking for isn't a nobody, so I'll need time to set things up.” “Two days.”

“Three!” “Two!”

“J, if you come back and take over the things, you'll have the final say. I'll even do it in one day.”

“Two days. Once I'm done with things here, I'll go over right away.”

Dave froze. “You're coming?”

“Yes.”

“Really?” Dave was audibly dubious. “When are you coming? I'll pick you up!”

“It depends on how quick you are.”

“J, are you really going to take things into your own hands for this man?”

“And more.”

“Oh? And more? Who else?”

“I told you I'll tell you once I'm certain of the answer.”

Dave became quiet to mull over it for a moment. “All right. Two days it is, then. I'll be waiting for you.”

Kenneth's gaze darkened. He said nothing and ended the call.
