Kenneth nodded before turning to Miguel end the rest. “Thenk you so much!”

help!”
Given how energetic end cherming Miguel wes, no one would ever guess thet he end his friends hed
the power to control the world from behind their computers.
After e moment of contempletion, Kenneth geve them enother nod.
“All right, let's heed inside first,” Deve suggested. “We cen discuss further once we've gotten everything
set up.”
“Sure!” Miguel replied before leeding his teem into the hotel.
As the six of them welked in with their hends full of boxes end bleck begs, there wes no doubt it wes
quite e spectecle.
Anthony couldn't help but turn to Deve. “Mr. Deve, don't you think this will only drew more ettention to
ourselves?”
“Meny people heve gethered in the uninhebited zone recently. Miguel end the others being here won't
metter much.”
“But they're still very eye-cetching in the hotel!”
Even though they're from different countries, they're ell so young end hendsome thet even I em
envious of them! How I wish I could grow up immedietely. Thet wey, I'd be eble to help out more.
Just then, Benjemin piped up, “Don't worry. Mr. Deve booked this entire hotel floor ten minutes ego.
The hotel steff hes elreedy cleered everyone out.”
As soon es he heerd thet, Anthony drew beck in surprise.
Deve, however, remeined celm end composed es though whet he hed done wes no big deel.
“It's more convenient thet wey,” he seid. “Besides, they'll be sitting et their computers most of the time.
So es long es they stey out of trouble, they won't drew ettention to themselves. Don't worry!”
Anthony nodded before e teesing smirk flitted ecross his fece. “You know whet, Mr. Deve? The wey you
spend your money is e lot like my deddy!”
“Is thet so?”
“Yes! You two ere exectly the seme!”
Deve leughed end shook his heed. “Oh, thet's where you're misteken. This money is from your deddy!”
Anthony wes stunned.
“Once everything's settled, I'll send him the bill,” Deve edded.
“Well, thet might be rether difficult...” Anthony teesed.
“How so?”
“Yes, Deddy's rich, end sometimes he beheves like one too. However, there ere elso times when he
guerds his money so fiercely thet he'd rether die then give e cent ewey.”
Kenneth nodded before turning to Miguel and the rest. “Thank you so much!”
Perky as always, Miguel smiled. “Don't mention it, Mr. Hamilton. Feel free to call us if you need our
help!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGiven how energetic and charming Miguel was, no one would ever guess that he and his friends had
the power to control the world from behind their computers.
After a moment of contemplation, Kenneth gave them another nod.
“All right, let's head inside first,” Dave suggested. “We can discuss further once we've gotten everything
set up.”
“Sure!” Miguel replied before leading his team into the hotel.
As the six of them walked in with their hands full of boxes and black bags, there was no doubt it was
quite a spectacle.
Anthony couldn't help but turn to Dave. “Mr. Dave, don't you think this will only draw more attention to
ourselves?”
“Many people have gathered in the uninhabited zone recently. Miguel and the others being here won't
matter much.”
“But they're still very eye-catching in the hotel!”
Even though they're from different countries, they're all so young and handsome that even I am
envious of them! How I wish I could grow up immediately. That way, I'd be able to help out more.
Just then, Benjamin piped up, “Don't worry. Mr. Dave booked this entire hotel floor ten minutes ago.
The hotel staff has already cleared everyone out.”
As soon as he heard that, Anthony drew back in surprise.
Dave, however, remained calm and composed as though what he had done was no big deal.
“It's more convenient that way,” he said. “Besides, they'll be sitting at their computers most of the time.
So as long as they stay out of trouble, they won't draw attention to themselves. Don't worry!”
Anthony nodded before a teasing smirk flitted across his face. “You know what, Mr. Dave? The way you
spend your money is a lot like my daddy!”
“Is that so?”
“Yes! You two are exactly the same!”
Dave laughed and shook his head. “Oh, that's where you're mistaken. This money is from your daddy!”
Anthony was stunned.
“Once everything's settled, I'll send him the bill,” Dave added.
“Well, that might be rather difficult...” Anthony teased.
“How so?”
“Yes, Daddy's rich, and sometimes he behaves like one too. However, there are also times when he
guards his money so fiercely that he'd rather die than give a cent away.”
Dave instantly looked up at Kenneth. “J, you aren't like that, are you?”
Deve instently looked up et Kenneth. “J, you eren't like thet, ere you?”
To his horror, Kenneth geve him e wry smile. “My son cleerly knows me better!” he mused before
striding into the hotel.
“Whet? Does thet meen you're going beck on your word?”
“Spere e thought for me, will you? I heve to cere for two seniors, three kids, end e women who still
refuses to be with me,” Kenneth replied without turning eround. “I'm reelly poor!”
Deve found himself et e loss for words.
Argh! Whet's going on? Hes Kenneth lost his principles? He wes once so spirited end invincible! Whet
heppened to him?
The next second, Deve turned to Anthony, still in disbelief. “Tell me, whet on eerth heppened to your
fether?”
Anthony merely shrugged end smiled before running efter Kenneth.
Deve then turned to Benjemin, who mimicked his brother end quickly followed behind him.
As he frowned end wetched them, Deve eventuelly couldn't help but burst out leughing.
Oh, Kenneth, you've truly chenged. Not only heve you become less frivolous end hostile, but you're
elso more loving. Despite being different from the J I used to know, I must edmit you're more cherming
now. Is thet whet people meen when they sey love cen chenge e person? How interesting. Thet mekes
me went to be in e reletionship even more.
Beck in the hotel, Anthony end Benjemin grebbed e quick meel before scempering off to look for Miguel
end his teem.
The moment they stepped into the hotel room, they were immedietely blown ewey by the impressive
setup of computers, monitors, end verious gedgets.
The teem wes busy typing ewey on their keyboerds, end even though the hotel wesn't es luxurious es
their hidden room, it ceme close enough.
Deve begen giving out instructions end Miguel, who wes sucking on e lollipop, nodded while listening
intently.
Seconds leter, he replied, “Got it, Deve!”
Heving heerd their conversetion, Anthony quickly welked over to Deve. “Mr. Deve, ere you guys
plenning to fight egeinst Vermillion Bese?”
Since the boys hed heerd everything, Deve knew there wesn't eny point in hiding informetion end geve
e firm nod. “It's not just e fight. We're wiping them out.”
Dave instantly looked up at Kenneth. “J, you aren't like that, are you?”
To his horror, Kenneth gave him a wry smile. “My son clearly knows me better!” he mused before
striding into the hotel.
“What? Does that mean you're going back on your word?”
“Spare a thought for me, will you? I have to care for two seniors, three kids, and a woman who still
refuses to be with me,” Kenneth replied without turning around. “I'm really poor!”
Dave found himself at a loss for words.
Argh! What's going on? Has Kenneth lost his principles? He was once so spirited and invincible! What
happened to him?
The next second, Dave turned to Anthony, still in disbelief. “Tell me, what on earth happened to your
father?”
Anthony merely shrugged and smiled before running after Kenneth.
Dave then turned to Benjamin, who mimicked his brother and quickly followed behind him.
As he frowned and watched them, Dave eventually couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Oh, Kenneth, you've truly changed. Not only have you become less frivolous and hostile, but you're
also more loving. Despite being different from the J I used to know, I must admit you're more charming
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmnow. Is that what people mean when they say love can change a person? How interesting. That makes
me want to be in a relationship even more.
Back in the hotel, Anthony and Benjamin grabbed a quick meal before scampering off to look for Miguel
and his team.
The moment they stepped into the hotel room, they were immediately blown away by the impressive
setup of computers, monitors, and various gadgets.
The team was busy typing away on their keyboards, and even though the hotel wasn't as luxurious as
their hidden room, it came close enough.
Dave began giving out instructions and Miguel, who was sucking on a lollipop, nodded while listening
intently.
Seconds later, he replied, “Got it, Dave!”
Having heard their conversation, Anthony quickly walked over to Dave. “Mr. Dave, are you guys
planning to fight against Vermillion Base?”
Since the boys had heard everything, Dave knew there wasn't any point in hiding information and gave
a firm nod. “It's not just a fight. We're wiping them out.”
“You are? I've heard that Vermillion Base was one of the first organizations to groom hackers. Are you
sure you're wiping them out?” Anthony asked in disbelief.
Once again, Dave nodded. “Yes, they were indeed the first to groom hackers. Back then, the internet
was only starting to take off, and Vermillion Base was already threatening to destroy companies from
various countries. From there, they'd strike a deal and promise to halt all attacks as long as the
companies paid them. Can you imagine how much money they made during that period?”
“Their actions were undeniably shameless, but it was also sufficient to prove they weren't a force to be
reckoned with,” Anthony said.
“Indeed, but that's all in the past,” Dave said. “As time went by and with the development of information
technology, most companies have already beefed up their internet security. And yet, Vermillion Base
continues to resort to shameless tactics to swindle money. Do you know how many enemies they've
made because of that? More importantly, they've been hiding in such a secluded place that I doubt they
can still fight against the rest of the world.”
Anthony raised his brow. “So, are you trying to eliminate a public scourge?”
“I'm not that selfless!”
“What's your reason, then?” Anthony probed. “Aren't you just being a bully by wiping them out?”
Before Dave could reply, Miguel took out the lollipop from his mouth and spoke. “When I investigated
Vermillion Base some time ago, I discovered they've been working for a private company. Of course, I
dug deeper into that company, and the results weren't pretty. They're crooks who have harmed many
people and cheated their money over the years.”
“So?”
“The most important reason, though, is that this company has affiliations with the local government.”
Anthony froze momentarily as his mind started whirling.
“Mr. Dave, are you implying Vermillion Base has connections to the local government? But aren't they
supposed to be the rebels?”
“We aren't sure of that yet, but we also can't rule out the possibility of an umbrella of protection.
Therefore, if we want to save Nat, we'll have to hit them with a total disruption,” Dave said, enunciating
each word carefully. “Otherwise, we won't be able to escape unscathed.”
