Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 800

“Our man told me that Boss doesn't know we are still alive. Hence, he wants to attack DX Group now. What do you think? Should we use this opportunity to counterattack him?” Dave questioned.

“Oh, he doesn't know?” Kenneth answered.

Dave nodded. “I'm not surprised. The explosion was quite terrifying, so it wouldn't be strange for there to be nothing much left of us if we had died there.”

Kenneth didn't believe that could be true. “But Boss is known to be paranoid and suspicious of others. Does he really believe we're dead since there were no signs of our bodies?”

“Who told you that he didn't find any bodies?” Dave answered back with a smile. “Boss found a few bodies at the scene, confirming to him that we are dead.”

“Were you the one who arranged for that?”

Dave shook his head. “Nope. It wasn't me.”

“Whose contribution is it, then?”

Dave didn't know either, so he shook his head. “I'm not sure. The most important thing is Boss believed what he saw. To him, DX Group is an organization without its leaders now, so he is bound to do something drastic.”

Even though Kenneth was no pessimist, he found this information absurd. After pondering for a while, he asked warily, “Something is amiss. What if this is a trap?”

“I know what you're thinking because I had the same thought too. That's why I didn't tell both of you this all this while. Don't worry, though. I've done my investigation and probed into the matter, and Boss indeed thinks we're dead. Besides, Boss is not trying to hide his intention to exact revenge and attack DX Group now. He is intent on searching for our headquarters and bagging everything all at once.”

It was true that Kenneth remained in disbelief over this matter. Yet, he trusted Dave. Dave wasn't someone who blindly believed in others' words. If he was confident of something, then someone or something must have convinced him to think that way.

Kenneth furrowed his brows, his eyes darkening as he considered something.

Amid the silence, Natasha turned around to stare at Kenneth. “Yes, Boss is a suspicious man, but we must consider that he might have fallen into a vicious cycle now, desperate to exact revenge on you guys. I think it's possible that he really does believe that you guys are gone.”

With that, she threw out a question. “Do you have a plan in mind?”

Dave peered at Natasha before focusing his attention on Kenneth.

Meanwhile, Kenneth regained his senses, averting his gaze from Natasha. “Dave, tell me about your plan.”

“I have a bold suggestion to make him bite the bait, and it's a one hundred percent success rate.”

“What is it?”

Dave fixated his gaze on the couple, slowly elaborating on his plan. Natasha and Kenneth's brows furrowed deeper and deeper as the conversation progressed. Ultimately, both of them stopped speaking.

“Why are you guys so quiet?” Dave glanced at them.

Unease flashed across Natasha's eyes as she looked at Dave. After a moment, she spoke. “Dave, I know you're doing this for our benefit, but this plan can cause excessive damage and loss to DX Group. I'm not sure...”

“DX Group would have suffered a greater loss without your help today,” Dave corrected her.

“It's not the same!”

“No matter what, DX Group can't escape unscathed now. Even if we don't go after him, he will still come for us, so all we can do is confront him head-on! Moreover, it will be a blessing for all if we manage to eliminate Vermillion Base once and for all this time. If we can't, then we shall go down with them!” Dave was determined.

Natasha wasn't someone that would reject others' suggestions aimlessly, and Dave's remarks had convinced her. However, Natasha knew this wasn't her decision to make or her place to talk, so she switched her attention to Kenneth.

Kenneth nodded his head at her before looking at Dave. “I have no comment on all other parts of your plan. But I stand by my opinion that it's precarious to go on with the plan now because we've yet to know what makes Boss believe that we're dead.”

“There's no way for us to delve into that, though. The only thing that I know is our men nearly believed that we were dead too.”

Kenneth was undoubtedly still worried. “Something is not right about this. I'm sure about that.”

Dave pondered for a moment before pulling out his phone. “Mike, please come into the room.”

Mike, who had been lingering outside when he got the message, immediately walked in, greeting, “Hi Dave, Kenneth, Natasha.”

Then, he shifted his gaze to Dave. “Dave, were you looking for me?”

Dave looked at him, nodding. “I need you to look into something.”
