Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 961

On the way to Vermillion Base, Cosmos looked at Anthony. “If Dave finds out and blames us, you must say that you forced me to take you!”

Upon hearing that, Anthony glanced at him. “Aren't you embarrassed to let a child take the blame for you?”

“A child?” Upon hearing those words, Cosmos scoffed. “Don't flatter yourself by considering yourself a child. Tell me, how many children are there like you?”

Taking a deep breath, Anthony thought for a moment, then nodded. “All right. Have it your way.”

“Also... there's something else I need your help with,” Cosmos said.

Anthony thought. I knew it. One who offers unsolicited hospitality must be harboring evil intentions.

As he was walking out, the fact that Cosmos caught up with him said it all.

Anthony looked at him. “What favor?”

“For you, it might just be a matter of saying a few nice words,” Cosmos said.

Anthony narrowed his eyes, then looked at him. “Is this related to Nat?”

Hearing that, Cosmos quickly nodded. “I knew you could definitely guess it! As expected, you're really smart. You're a genius!”

“I know!” Anthony responded immediately, then looked at him and said calmly, “Skip the compliments and just get to the point.”

The smile of Cosmos hung awkwardly in the air. He hesitated before speaking. “So, should I just go ahead and say it without any further ado?”

“Speak!” Anthony nodded.

“I-I would like to take Nat as my master. I wonder if you could put in a good word for me?”

“No way!” Anthony flatly refused.

“Hold on, but you just told me to say it!”

“I let you speak, but that doesn't mean I agreed with your request,” Anthony casually remarked.

Stumped, Cosmos hesitated before asking, “Hold on. Why can't it be done?”

“There are many reasons. Which one would you like to hear?” Anthony asked.

Cosmos had no way of knowing his reasons. He blinked and then said, “Why don't you tell me all about it?”

“Firstly, Nat is incredibly beautiful.”

Cosmos was puzzled. “I get that, but what does her beauty have to do with her not taking disciples?”

“I'm afraid you might have inappropriate thoughts about Nat!”

Cosmos said, “How is that possible?”

“What do you mean it's impossible? Are you saying Nat isn't beautiful?”

“She is undoubtedly beautiful, but I'm not that kind of person. And honestly, I only have feelings of respect and admiration toward Nat. Beyond that, there really isn't anything else!”

Upon hearing that, Anthony slightly raised his eyebrows.

“The second reason is due to concerns for your personal safety.”

“What do you mean?”

“You should be aware of this as well. My daddy is a jealous man. He's okay with everything else, but when it comes to Nat, he gets upset and jealous whenever any attractive person gets close to her. So, aren't you afraid that my daddy will target you?” Anthony asked.

Cosmos pondered for a moment. When he asked for Natasha's contact information during her first visit to the base, Kenneth was indeed displeased. The latter's dissatisfaction was clearly written on his face.

At that thought, Cosmos frowned.

Anthony's mouth twitched slightly after he noticed that.

Just when he thought Cosmos would give up, the latter suddenly uttered, “I'm not afraid!”

“Huh?”

“Boss J is upset because he doesn't understand fully. Once he truly comprehends, he'll realize that my sole intention is to pursue knowledge!”

“That's what you think. What if my daddy doesn't see it that way, and he actually targets you?”
