Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 425

“Now that I think about it, I actually met your dad once,” said Boss suddenly.

Natasha looked up and gazed at the man sitting in front of her.

Boss gazed at her and said seriously, “The two of you look rather similar, actually.”

“Really? Why have you never told me about that before?” Natasha asked stoically.

Boss picked up his glass of wine and took a sip. While he looked at the liquid in the transparent glass, he mumbled, “I'm telling you now, aren't I? Don't you think such important information should be shared in person?” Boss set his glass back down on the table.

Natasha's gaze was on him the entire time, but her beautiful eyes shone with suspicion and indifference.

“You're here because you suspect your father's death is somehow connected to Vermillion Base, right?” asked Boss.

“It's not just a suspicion,” Natasha corrected him.

She was almost certain of it.

If that wasn't the case, she would've found out the truth behind everything after the occurrence of the tragic case. Coupled with the information that Anthony had shared with her, it was highly possible that Vermillion Base was involved. Moreover, Natasha had a gut feeling that everything was somehow connected, too.

Boss understood what she was saying right away. He thought about it for a moment before asking, “May I know the reason you think so?”

“Don't you know the people of Vermillion Base's style of doing things?” Natasha answered his question with a question.

“That's all you're basing this on?” asked Boss.

“I believe that the truth will be revealed now that I am here,” said Natasha in a determined tone.

A strange, inconspicuous glow flashed past Boss' eyes. He looked into Natasha's eyes and asked, “If what you suspect is true, then what would you do?”

“What do you think I'd do?”

“Exact your revenge?”

Natasha smiled, but remained quiet.

Boss scoffed. “I'm pretty sure you are too weak to even leave Vermillion Base unscathed.”

“Do you really think I have any intention of leaving at all?” Natasha retorted.

Boss stared at her in surprise. “You...”

Natasha didn't say anything else. She simply sneered and took the photos before getting up and leaving.

“Even so, you won't necessarily succeed,” Boss yelled at her leaving figure.

“Thank you for your warning. I will be sure to give it my all,” replied Natasha without even turning back.

A complicated gleam flashed in Boss' eyes when he watched her leave.

Just then, someone who was standing aside spoke up. “Boss, since she's in our hands now, maybe it's time to make a request?”

“Let's wait for a little longer.”

“What are we waiting for? Wait... Are you actually going to take her to Vermillion Base?”

Boss' eyes narrowed a fraction. It seemed as if he was pondering about something. That was when the person said, “You know she wants revenge. What if she hurts the general? We'll be blamed for taking her there. What will we do then?”

“Do you really think that the general's bodyguards are that useless?” said Boss.

“Even if she fails to hurt him, we will still be reprimanded because we're the ones who took her there.”

“Enough. I know what I'm doing.”

“But, Boss!”

“Am I missing something here? When have I ever needed your permission to do anything at all?” Boss snapped in annoyance.

The person shut his mouth immediately. “No, that's not what I meant...”

“Then shut up!”

The person had more to say, but he decided against it afterward.
