Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 684

At Miguel's words, Anthony gave him the side-eye before saying, “So?”

“So... So I can't...” Miguel trailed off while looking at Anthony, his awkward expression already revealing what he was trying to say.

Just then, Denise leaned in from behind, asking, “Aren't you afraid that my brother's going to skin you alive if you keep refusing him?”

Hearing that, Miguel turned his head to look at the little girl and emphasized, “Well, him skinning me alive doesn't sound probable, but Dave, on the other hand, will definitely flay me if he finds out about this.”

“You!” Denise huffed, “You're just bullying us because you're certain that we can't do anything.”

Miguel denied, “That's where you're wrong. It's so obvious that I'm the one who's getting bullied here.”

Denise glared at him, looking as if she wanted to refute him but couldn't come up with any retort. In the end, she could only sit back and turn her gaze away, sulking.

Subsequently, Anthony piped up, “You're right. I can't skin you alive, but I can revoke your apprenticeship.”

At that, Miguel looked at him in disbelief. “Hold on, Master, you... you're threatening me!”

Anthony nodded. “That's right. I am threatening you.”

Miguel muttered, “Can't you just be more reasonable?”

“You're my apprentice. Shouldn't you offer your assistance when your master's asking for help?” Anthony quipped.

“Of course I should help, but...”

Anthony cut him off, “No buts! Let's just go!”

Still, Miguel was still hesitant, looking as if he was in a dilemma.

Anthony persuaded, “Don't worry, if Mr. Dave finds out about this, I'll say that I forced you. I'll do everything in my power to protect your skin. I won't let him skin you.”

“Really?” asked Miguel.

“Yes, really. After all, you're my apprentice. I won't let anyone bully you.”

Miguel's lips curled into a smile when he heard that. “Then... I have another small request to ask of you, Master.”

Anthony stared at him. “What is it?”

“I want you to make an announcement saying that I'm your apprentice,” Miguel replied.

Anthony was silent for a moment before saying, “Are you trying to talk terms with me?”

Miguel smiled. “I'm just asking for a favor.”

Anthony drawled, “So... does that mean you're going to keep me here if I don't agree to your request?”

“Of course not. If you don't agree to it, I'll just persuade you until you do. As for your instructions, I'll still carry them out,” Miguel replied.

Anthony huffed, “Then what are you waiting for? Let's go before you lose them!”

With that, Miguel stepped on the pedal to catch up with the kids' parents.

However, because of the delay and the fact that Kenneth was a fast driver, Miguel and the kids had long since been left behind.

On the road, the three kids kept looking out the window, afraid of missing anything.

Alas, even after they had driven for a long while, Kenneth's car was still nowhere to be seen.

Denise furrowed her brows. “What should we do? We lost them.”

Benjamin chimed in, “Tony, is there any other way to find them?”

With a frown marring his forehead, Anthony uttered, “Nat will definitely notice if I try to pinpoint her phone's location, and because Daddy's phone has been modified before, there's no way I can track him.”

Denise's and Benjamin's frowns deepened when they heard that.

The boys swept a glance at Miguel while Denise shot daggers at him. If he hadn't stopped the car halfway, we wouldn't have lost them.

Noticing that he was being glared at, Miguel said to Denise, “Don't worry. Just because you guys have no way to track them, it doesn't mean I don't as well.”

In response, the three kids trained their gazes on him.

Miguel continued, “All of Dave's cars are equipped with a location-sharing feature, so it's actually quite easy to find out where one of the cars is.”

As he spoke, he pressed some options on the display screen, and soon, a moving red dot appeared on the interface. “There we go.”

Seeing that the red dot was moving not far in front of them, Anthony finally calmed down. He raised his head to look at Miguel and asked, “How did you know of this function?”
