Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 930

Dave pondered for a moment, then looked at Cosmos and asked, “How is that dataset now?”

“It has already been replaced, reinforced, and secured. Under normal circumstances, it would go unnoticed,” Cosmos said.

Dave listened, nodding thoughtfully.

“And there's more!” said Cosmos, picking up the USB drive. “Dave, he also upgraded and applied some changes for us. I just checked, and it's indeed better than what we had before. It's just...” Cosmos looked at Dave, hesitant to continue.

At that moment, Dave's gaze once again fell on the child sleeping on the sofa, and he couldn't help but smile.

“He really is the spitting image of his mom!” Dave murmured.

Cosmos noticed Dave's smile and looked confused. He asked, “Dave, what should we do?”

Dave retracted his gaze and returned his attention to Cosmos, instructing, “Go ahead and use it.”

“I admit he's somewhat impressive,” Cosmos expressed with concern, “but he's not like one of us at DX Group, and he's just a kid. If he accidentally leaks our confidential data, the consequences would be unimaginable!”

Dave stared at him and asked, “Do you think he will?”

The words were stuck in Cosmos' throat for a moment. Eventually, he answered, “He does seem quite mature...”

“So?”

“I trust that he won't, but what I'm talking about are the rules!” Cosmos emphasized.

“Rules are rigid, but people are flexible,” retorted Dave.

“Well...”

“No worries, go ahead and use it.”

Cosmos nodded in agreement. Although he hadn't been with DX Group for very long, he had some understanding of the matters between Dave and Kenneth. Plus, considering that Anthony was Kenneth's child, he understood why Dave trusted the child implicitly.

“Alright!” Cosmos nodded, adding, “I'm heading over now.”

Dave nodded. “I'll leave this to you for now. I need to head back.”

His words reminded Cosmos of something. Cosmos asked, “Dave, now that we know who did it, can our colleagues return to work as usual?”

Nodding, Dave explained, “Yes. Later, just make up an excuse to the outside world. Don't say too much. Before we act, I don't want any slip-ups.”

Cosmos nodded. “I understand.”

Without uttering another word, Dave headed straight toward the couch. Looking at Anthony, who was sound asleep, he gently picked the boy up and placed him on his shoulder, then walked straight out the door.

The car came to a halt in front of a castle, and Dave stepped out, cradling Anthony in his arms.

It was already very late at night.

As soon as Dave walked into the castle, he saw Kenneth in the living room.

As if he had been waiting for them, Kenneth's gaze fell directly on the person in Dave's arms as soon as they entered.

“What's going on?” Kenneth rose to his feet, asking with concern.

Dave looked at him and whispered, “He's just asleep.”

Kenneth approached and, seeing that Anthony was unharmed, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. “My son was only with you for one night, and he's already like this?”

Dave smirked and drawled, “What's the matter? Feeling sorry?”

“What do you think?” As he spoke, Kenneth promptly lifted Anthony out of Dave's arms.

Anthony was still sleeping deeply as if he hadn't slept for days and nights. No matter how much he was jostled around, he wouldn't wake up.

As Kenneth carried his son away, Dave said, “He really did me a big favor today. I just don't know why he's so tired. It's also clear to see that he doesn't seem to be in high spirits.”

Then, he looked at Kenneth and added, “As a father, try to show more concern when you have the time.”

Kenneth narrowed his eyes, his gaze falling on the person in his arms. A smile tugged at the corners of his mouth. “What's the use of worrying? It won't solve the fundamental problem. Understanding will only add to each other's troubles.”

Listening to Kenneth's somewhat melancholic words, Dave narrowed his eyes and said, “What you're saying is...”

Kenneth nodded.

Dave was instantly at a loss for words.
