Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 660

Several minutes later, Anthony slammed his hand on the keyboard.

Benjamin, who was staring at Anthony from behind, sighed in resignation. “Like what you said, if Thalia did it on purpose, it's only normal we can't find her.”

“It would've been fine if this were under normal circumstances. The problem right now is that she's wounded, and she has many enemies out there. She'll be in real danger if someone finds her!” said Anthony with frustration.

“What can we do, then? There's nothing we can do about it if we can't find her.”

Anthony knitted his brows with worry.

“Maybe we can contact Kyle? Thalia may be avoiding us, but it might not be the case for Kyle. We can get Kyle to contact her and make sure she's safe,” suggested Benjamin.

Anthony mulled it over and nodded. “Okay. You contact Kyle, while I stay here and try again.”

Benjamin glanced at him. “Why me again?”

Anthony looked up and cast his brother an innocent glance. “You were the one who made the suggestion. Shouldn't you call him?”

Benjamin took a deep breath and complained, “He interrogates me every time I call him. I'm not making this call, and this call is not happening if you keep avoiding him.”

Anthony stared at Benjamin intently and advised, “Think about it, Benjamin. He's already giving you such a hard time when you call. How do you think he's going to treat me?”

“No matter what, this is still your problem.”

Anthony was rendered speechless.

His original plan was to earn Benjamin's pity, but Benjamin rejected the request mercilessly.

“Benjamin...” Anthony said in a cute voice.

Benjamin merely scrutinized Anthony with no ounce of empathy in his eyes. “Perhaps if you address me as your big bro, I'll force myself to make that call.”

Anthony cast Benjamin a stern gaze. “Are you serious?”

“Of course!” Benjamin bobbed his head.

Narrowing his eyes, Anthony rose to his feet. “Forget it. I'll call him myself.” He grabbed the phone and made the call.

Benjamin merely arched his brow lazily. After Anthony walked off to make the call, he approached the couch and sat with his legs crossed.

Anthony hesitated for a moment but eventually dialed Kyle's number.

Before he could even utter the sentence he had spent a long time constructing, Kyle asked, “Wow, I thought you'd disappeared. I didn't expect you to call me.”

Anthony was momentarily at a loss for words.

Thankfully, he had already expected to hear that. “What are you talking about? I'm just a little busy these days.”

“Really?”

“Of course.”

“What are you busy with? I don't see you being active in anything recently. What can you be busy with?”

“I-It's personal stuff.”

“Hah. Personal stuff? Does that mean you've forgotten about public affairs over personal matters?”

Every word Kyle uttered was laced with an oppressive tone as if he had been waiting to say that for a long time.

However, Anthony knew he would keep getting nagged if he did not let Kyle vent it out.

“How could I? I've completed everything you gave me, haven't I?” asked Anthony.

“True. If you can complete it, why can't you come and meet me in person?”

“You're being a little overbearing now.”

“You're just feeling guilty.”

“Fine. I am feeling guilty.”

“Oh? You're actually admitting it shamelessly?”
