Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 863

Magus looked up at him, his deep eyes tinged with a hint of red.

A moment later, he gritted his teeth and asked, “Is that true?”

Anthony nodded. “Of course.”

“All right!” Magus agreed without hesitation, his voice firm and resolute. “As long as you can save Lina, I'll do whatever you want.”

Anthony raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at him playfully as he asked, “Even joining us?”

Magus looked at Anthony as if he had already expected this question, his eyes deep and mysterious. After a moment, he spoke slowly, “As long as you can save Lina, I'll agree to it.”

It was evident he was not willing.

Anthony narrowed his eyes. “Don't worry. I never force others to do things they don't want to. My team needs talented people, but it's not like we can't do without you.”

Magus squinted, unable to figure out what Anthony was really thinking at that moment.

Anthony said nothing more but told Magus, “If you want to save Lina, you must follow my arrangements completely. You'll do whatever I ask you to do.”

Magus stared at him. As much as he was reluctant, he needed help now. He needed someone to rescue Lina, and he had no choice.

He nodded and asked, “Fine. What would you like me to do?”

Anthony looked at him and said, “I need to know what exactly does he want from you? I must know everything before I can start planning.”

Magus hesitated for a moment before speaking, “Next week, there will be an exhibition here featuring the world-famous painting 'Nobility.' It will be exclusively displayed for three hours. He has his eyes set on it and wants me to collaborate with him to steal it.”

As Anthony expected, he knew that person would never appear without reason.

So, he's trying to steal...

Anthony chuckled mockingly.

Magus looked at him. “What are you laughing at?”

“Stealing is stealing. This word can never be replaced by anything else regardless of circumstances,” Anthony said to him, hitting the nail on the head.

Magus' face looked somewhat uncomfortable, probably because he used to be a practitioner in this field. This word was somewhat harsh on him.

However, he had to admit Anthony was right.

Magus closed his eyes, not denying it.

At that moment, Anthony looked at him and asked, “Did he ask you to do anything?”

After hesitating for a moment, Magus nodded.

“What is it?” Anthony asked.

“He gave me a photo of someone and asked me to create something based on their appearance.”

“You mean a disguise?” Anthony asked.

Magus nodded.

Anthony thought for a moment, then looked at him and asked, “Anything else? Didn't he ask you to participate?”

“Of course, or he wouldn't have a scapegoat in me again,” Magus said coldly.

“It seems you've expected that too.”

“Hehe...” A cold sneer appeared at the corner of Magus' mouth. “The hatred between him and me is irreconcilable. He knows very well I won't let him go as long as I'm alive. Of course, he won't let me go either. Maximizing my interests is his goal this time. Once the deal is done, I'll get arrested in his place, and he'll...” Magus did not finish his sentence, but his eyes gradually turned red as if recalling something. He clenched his fists tightly.

As Anthony listened from the side, knowing that Magus understood everything was comforting.

Narrowing his eyes, Anthony looked at him. “I have a question.”
