Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 503

As Hayden gaped at the little boy in front of him, he couldn't help asking, “What are you doing?”

Ignoring him, Anthony kept his eyes fixed on the screen, his fingers flying across the keyboard. The expression on his young face was so solemn that it was as though he had become someone else entirely.

“What...” Hayden was going to speak further when he abruptly glimpsed the image on the interface change all of a sudden. At once, his eyes went wide.

H-How is this possible?

At that precise moment, Miguel beside him crowed excitedly, “Incredible, Hayden! Great job!”

Just a heartbeat before the other party broke past our firewalls, he suddenly fixed the final loophole and tossed out another dummy location in a flash while successfully trapping them in. It was simply mind-blowing! He blew my mind!

Thrilled to the core, he snapped his head over to look at Hayden, only to be greeted by the sight of Anthony sitting before the computer with his fingers flying across the keyboard.

Huh? Bewilderment swamped him.

Meanwhile, Hayden was rooted at the side blankly with surprise written all over his face. He didn't quite know what to say.

“What's going on here?” Miguel questioned.

Just then, Anthony ordered, “Miguel, listen to my directives from this moment onward. Back me up while I attack.”

Miguel was wholly baffled. “What?” I didn't mishear him, did I?

In the brief second when he hesitated, the other party launched a counterattack once more. Again, Anthony went on the defense and thwarted it. This time, the few people at the side witnessed it.

They gawked at Anthony as though he was an alien.

Even then, Anthony didn't take his eyes off the computer. Without even turning to them, he reprimanded, “Continue spacing out if you want to lose!”

Miguel had no retort left then, for Anthony was the one who saved the day both times during the critical juncture.

Even if I'm dreaming at this instant, I've got to continue playing along with this dream!

Instantly snapping back to his senses, he declared, “Okay, I'll back you up!”

At the side, Nick chimed in, “Count me in!”

Thus, a new round of attack began.

Staring at the screen, Anthony said to the man beside him, “Are you sure you don't want to switch places?”

Hayden promptly gathered his wits about him and shot to his feet to give his place to Anthony. Then, he even thoughtfully pushed the chair behind the latter.

Sitting down with his eyes pinned on the screen, Anthony continued, “Buy me a minute, Miguel. If you can hold out, I'll have you shoot to stardom today!”

By then, Miguel had already regained his composure. “Okay. I'll hold out no matter what!” he vowed.

Anthony said nothing further. He fixated his eyes on the screen, line after line of green codes flashing past like lightning.

Beside him, Hayden merely watched at first. Subsequently, something occurred to him, and he whipped out his phone to record the scene. At that exact moment, Benjamin walked over without warning and shook his head at him.

In the past, he merely regarded Benjamin as a child.

But at that very moment, his confidence inexplicably faltered significantly. “I-I just want to learn from him.”

Still, Benjamin shook his head. “You may watch, but you can't record it!”

Say, he's just a kid, so why am I feeling so guilty? This is downright incredulous.

After pondering for a while, Hayden ultimately put his phone away.

And so, they continued looking at the screen.

In that one minute of defense, Anthony successfully fixed their loopholes and even established a dummy location to mislead the other party.

In an instant, the tables were turned. Compared to the situation earlier, it was night and day.

As Miguel watched from the side, his brain couldn't quite digest things, but the upturn of his lips brimmed with pride.

“Awesome!” he exclaimed.

Anthony studied the computer, the corners of his mouth lifted a fraction even as a flash of disdain flittered across his eyes. “The show has just begun!”
