Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 427

That night, Anthony paced back and forth in his room, thinking about something.

He knew Kenneth was dead set on not letting them get involved with this matter, but he couldn't just sit idly by.

With that thought in mind, the boy's gaze fell upon the bag that was placed at the side. After a moment of ponderation, he walked over, opened the bag, and took a laptop out of it.

He hesitated for a moment, but eventually, he turned on the laptop.

No matter what, he had to try. He had to see if he could get in touch with Natasha.

Therefore, he began typing away on his laptop, trying to hack into the system to get Natasha's location.

In the midst of that, he frowned.

He noticed that the system was not as hard to decode as it was before. It was as if there was an opening in a maze, rendering it much easier to solve.

Just then, someone knocked on the door.

Anthony was surprised. He quickly switched to another webpage to hide what he was doing and looked at the door. “Come in!”

Benjamin opened the door and entered.

Anthony heaved a sigh of relief when he saw his brother come in. “You scared me!”

Benjamin realized something was going on as soon as he heard Anthony's words. He instantly approached. “What are you doing?”

Anthony switched back to the original page and continued typing away on the keyboard. “I'm trying to locate Nat.”

“Can you find her?” said Benjamin.

“I couldn't before, but now, I might have a shot,” Anthony responded. He glued his eyes onto the screen with a look of excitement and nervousness.

Benjamin sat next to his brother and watched expectantly without saying a word.

Anthony worked on the laptop for quite some time before Benjamin finally asked, “How's it going? Did you make any progress? You still can't locate her?”

Anthony put the laptop away and stopped typing. “It's not that I can't locate her. I think she probably left an opening for me to find her, but the place she's in now has some sort of signal interference, so I can't pinpoint her location for the time being. But I'm sure once she leaves that place, I should be able to find her.”

Benjamin stared at his brother with slight surprise. “Did you just say Nat deliberately left an opening for you so you could find her?”

“Yes, she did. Previously, Nat always hid her location from us on purpose. I tried decoding it but it was hard. This time, however, it's a lot easier.” Anthony confirmed with a nod.

“Maybe that's not the case. What if you've simply gotten better at this?” asked Benjamin.

That was possible because Anthony didn't just have incredible skills. He also learned at an amazing speed, so there was a good chance he had improved in such a short time.

When Anthony heard what Benjamin said, he mulled it over before shaking his head. “You're right, I am improving, but this feels different. Everything from my hunch to the difficulty of cracking the code is telling me that Nat deliberately wants me to find her.”

Benjamin stopped doubting his brother after hearing that because he believed in gut instincts, too.

It was just like how he, Anthony, and Denise could read each other's minds. Sometimes, gut instincts could be surprisingly accurate.

“Why would Nat do that, though?” asked Benjamin.

Anthony's brows knitted together as he pondered for a bit before answering, “I have no idea either. Maybe she's trying to send me a message? But I can't figure it out for now.”

“You don't think... Nat is not in trouble, is she?” said Benjamin, making a guess.

Anthony shook his head. “No. I don't think so. That guy demanded something from Daddy just now, so he must know that Daddy would ask to see Nat in return. Given those circumstances, it is unlikely he will hurt Nat.”

Just then, Benjamin recalled what he saw on the surveillance footage that day.

He couldn't help sighing when he thought about it. “I honestly don't know what Nat is thinking. Why did she leave with that guy?”

Anthony sighed as well. “Why else? Only Granddad's matter could make Nat go nuts like this.”

“But...”
