Chapter 461
“What is Mr. Dave doing here?” Benjamin wondered.
“Well, if you want to know, all you have to do is go up and take a look,” Thalia replied.
The three exchanged a look and went after Dave.
Meanwhile, when Dave entered the room, he was welcomed by the sight of countless needles poking
into Kenneth's head while the man beside him was slowly extracting the needles from Kenneth's head.
Kenneth frowned slightly. “Why are you here?”
Dave walked over and had himself seated comfortably before locking his eyes on Kenneth helplessly.
“I'm done with those two sons of yours.”
“What now?” Kenneth picked up the cup of water from the side and took a sip.
“They received news about the severe injuries on Boss as well. They told me they would team up with
those men on the bounty list to find a way to rescue Natasha if they couldn't find you.”
“They're trying to bait you. They want to use you to force me out.”
“I thought of that, of course, but do you think they're really going to stop? If they couldn't find you, what
do you think they would do? I can't even guarantee what they'll do.”

“Do you think I don't want that? I mean, look at your kids. Are they even ordinary children? They are
both incredibly smart, which makes it even harder to fool them. Besides, there's also Thalia around
them to keep them safe. What do you think I should do?”
At the mention of Thalia, the man keeping the needles froze for a split second.
Dave had, of course, noticed it, but he merely closed his eyes and said nothing.
Kenneth, too, realized this, and, of course, he knew the reasons behind all of this. He glanced at the
person beside him before turning back to Dave and said, “Dave, find a way and get the three of them
out of here.”
Dave shook his head in return. “That is something beyond my capabilities. Thalia even sneaked into
my room a few days ago and almost killed me!”
Kenneth was taken aback. Glancing at the man beside him, he asked, “And?”
“What and?”
“You didn't do anything to her, did you?” Kenneth asked.
The man holding the needles seemed unbothered by that. However, those stiffened hands of his
suggested otherwise.
“Whoa, why didn't you ask me what she did to me instead? She's the Darknetz Ace. Do you think she's
someone anyone can easily bully?” Dave answered.
Upon hearing that, Kenneth was relatively much more at ease. “And you're standing here in one piece,
aren't you?”
“If it weren't for fear of further amplifying the conflict between Darknetz and DX, I would've—”
Before Dave could finish speaking, the man, who was holding the needles beside them, turned around
abruptly.
The intense stare coming from the man instantly made Dave feel uneasy.
Kenneth piped up, “That's right. We're not going to start another fight with Darknetz again for now, for
the sake of Anthony and Benjamin.”
“I say we take them in. They could even become the successor of DX in the future,” Dave said.
Kenneth's lips quirked up. “That is something they'd have to decide for themselves!”
“You're the father. Of course you have to decide for them!”
Kenneth's eyes dimmed. “Nat said that we must respect their decision, and we mustn't impose our
thoughts and beliefs on them. She said we should grant them the freedom to decide.”
“I reckon you guys are the only two in the world who are that carefree about your children's future!”

Dave was rendered speechless. “Okay. Then again, I have this feeling that their plan could work. Why
don't we give it a try?”
“Yes. I have to admit that their plan could actually work, but it's not entirely safe!”
“And here I thought you were saying something about granting them the freedom to decide on their
matters. We can use this chance to train them. It will be worth it!”
“You'll only understand this feeling when you have your own children. You'd rather take on everything
than put them near harm's way.”
Dave nodded in response.
Although he was no father, as an adult, he could never bring himself to let two kids take the risk.
“Then what do we do now? It's a little too late to talk about it now, isn't it?”
“What do you mean by late?” Kenneth asked.
Dave crossed his legs and looked outside. “Barring accidents, they should be here now.”
Kenneth was utterly dumbfounded.
“I saw someone tailing me on the way here. If I'm not wrong, it should be them.”
Kenneth rose to his feet abruptly, but before he could say anything, a huge bang was heard. The door
was slammed wide open, revealing Thalia, who was holding a gun in her hands.
“No one moves!”
The fuss she kicked up instantly drew the attention of everyone around.
