Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 514

He was about to fire a shot when his hand became weak. His entire body turned stiff as blood trickled out of the corner of his mouth.

Seeing that, Gavin hurried over. “General Will...”

Despite his fury mere moments ago, Will slumped into the chair and stared at Boss. His eyes were as wide as saucers, but he couldn't move his limbs.

“General Will, what's wrong with you? What happened to you?” Gavin asked hastily.

He glared at Boss and demanded, “What did you do to General Will?”

“I stood here and didn't move an inch. What can I do?” Boss responded.

“You...”

Suddenly, Will parted his lips to say something. At once, Gavin leaned down and put his ear by Will's lips.

After hearing what Will had to say, he glowered at Boss and whipped his gun out to point it at the former.

Boss remained unfazed. Despite having a gun pointed in his direction, he chuckled out loud.

“You'd better think through before firing the gun,” he reminded.

Gavin sneered, “I don't have to think twice to punish a traitor!”

“Then, should you call your family before firing the gun?” Boss responded.

Hearing that, Gavin froze and shot him a sharp look.

“Boss, how dare you harm my family!” he declared furiously.

Boss merely flashed a languid smile. “I didn't harm them. All I did was invite them to my place and provide them with food and accommodation. They are happier there than in your little house.”

Gavin's hand was shaking as he held the gun.

Boss went to him. “As long as you help me take over General Will's position, I promise they will be fine. I will even send your kid to study overseas.”

“Dream on!” Gavin retorted.

Boss was still calm. “Don't reject that fast. Think about it. What did you get from working for General Will? Money, a house, or a family?”

“I won't be a traitor!” Gavin merely stared at him.

“A traitor?” Boss snickered. “That is a negative term, but I think humans have the right to their own judgments. If he is a good leader, you can insist on following him. However, do you still think he is a good leader after what he did over the years?”

Gavin did not gratify him with a response.

“All these years, he led the people of the Vermillion Base to wreak havoc and did all sorts of evil deeds. Do we want that?” Boss questioned.

Still, Gavin said nothing. He disagreed with Will's decision but couldn't do anything to stop the man's actions for the past few years.

“You were loyal to him, but do you know what he did to you? I don't think so. Remember how your son died in the war? Do you think he sacrificed to save General Will?”

Stunned, Gavin whipped his head up to stare at Boss. “What do you mean by that?”

Boss chuckled lightly and said in a low voice, “Back then, they didn't sacrifice to save General Will. It was General Will who abandoned my sister and your son there to avoid those people. Hence, he was the reason they died.”

Gavin's eyes widened, but he quickly shook his head. “No, you're wrong. That was just an accident.”

He then turned to look at the man slumped in the chair; distrust evident in his gaze.

“The kids were fine in the base, but why did they leave with General Will suddenly? Many people were with them, but why did they have to die? Have you never thought, hated, or suspected anything?” Boss asked slowly.

“No. General Will won't do that. Why would he do that?” Gavin remained doubtful.
