Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 799

They were just done fooling around when Dave opened the door and entered the room.

Noticing the stern expression on his face, Kenneth asked, “What happened?”

Dave peered at Natasha before saying in a low voice, “I'm afraid to say that your efforts today were in vain.”

“You didn't catch the culprit?” Natasha questioned.

Even though he was unwilling to admit it, Dave nodded. His voice was filled with rage when he said, “Yeah. He managed to get away.”

Hearing that, Kenneth probed, “Did anyone hurt themselves during the operation?”

Dave shook his head. “Luckily, no. Even though there was an exchange of fire, nobody got wounded. The man is vigilant and alert, though, so apprehending him won't be easy.”

Natasha raised her brow as she glanced at Kenneth, speaking in a calm, uneventful voice. “To be honest, I feel better knowing that we didn't catch him. I'll feel uneasy if we manage to apprehend him smoothly.”

After all, handling a person and a matter like this wouldn't usually go as planned.

Kenneth nodded in agreement. “Nat is right. Don't give up. There are more chances to come. At least the person probably won't show up anymore.”

“Who knows whether he will keep his words or not?” Dave retorted.

“It doesn't matter. The hole in your system? I've already told...” Natasha trailed off, turning her head to look at the person beside her.

Cosmos noticed her action and hurriedly reminded, “Cosmos.”

Natasha bobbed her head. “Yes. I've told him that as long as you patch the hole, these people won't be able to attack your system again.”

“All right. Thank you for your help!” Dave nodded.

“You let me stay and eat here, and I haven't expressed my gratitude for you yet.”

“It's okay. I'll ask Kenneth to compensate me.”

Natasha grinned upon hearing Dave's response.

Just then, Kenneth spoke. “What Nat did isn't enough to compensate for the food and drinks you supplied her?”

“Nope. What she did was more than enough.”

“Then why do you want to settle the debt with me?”

“The debt is yours.”

Dave's words rendered Kenneth speechless while Mike and Cosmos burst out laughing at their humorous exchange.

However, their laughter caught Kenneth's attention. The latter glanced at them, speaking in a low voice, “Is there anything that I can help you two with?”

Mike and Cosmos immediately froze before shaking their heads in unison. “N-Nope.”

“Then why are you guys still here? Do you want to add my contact number too?” Kenneth asked.

Mike and Cosmos quickly headed out together.

“Bye, Kenneth.”

“Bye, Dave.”

With that, they disappeared from the room.

Watching Cosmos and Mike's retreating backs, Dave was curious. “What contact number?”

Kenneth shifted his gaze to Dave upon hearing his question. “Your men asked for Nat's contact number just now. You should be doing something about that!”

Dave chuckled. “Why so? Are you jealous?”

“Jealous? Of them?” Kenneth snorted. “Are you kidding me? They aren't courageous enough to do anything anyway.”
