Chapter 696
“Kenneth, if you give all your assets to Natasha, can we still eat and drink for free at your wedding?”
Mike asked.
“When have I ever said you guys could attend empty-handed?” Kenneth asked.
Mike and Luke were taken aback. “Boss, you said something completely different the last time...”
“Then what did I say?”
“You said we only needed to be present for the wedding, and everything else would be taken care of,”
Luke said as he recalled Kenneth's words.
Kenneth racked his brain, trying to remember. “I was trying to be polite. You don't need to take those
words that seriously!”
Luke and Mike were rendered speechless.
How can someone change their mind so quickly?
Kenneth looked at them and stated, “I'm going to become a penniless man soon. I might even need
you guys to support me in the future.”
Hold up. He's going to be shameless about it too?
Natasha noticed their speechlessness and piped up, “It's fine. It's not up to him. I'll be the one to take
care of everything.”
Mike and Luke's eyes lit up when they heard that. “Really?”
“Natasha, are you sure?”
“Of course.” Natasha nodded. “Plus, it'll be the greatest reception you'll ever attend. You all only need
to present for it.”
“Whoa! All hail Natasha!” Mike shouted.
“Sure enough, it's the best when Natasha's around. We don't need to be tortured by Boss anymore!”
Luke chimed in.
“In the future, let me know if he bullies you. I'll scold him for you,” Natasha stated half-jokingly.
“We're relieved to hear you say that.” Mike shifted his gaze to Kenneth, his gaze seemingly saying, “It
looks like I've found someone who will support me.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKenneth immediately leaned close to Natasha and said, “If you put it that way, they'll take it seriously.”
“But I am being serious,” replied Natasha.
At that, Mike and Luke looked even smugger as they straightened their backs while regarding Kenneth.
Kenneth turned to glance at them before nodding in exasperation. “Fine. You guys are lucky to have
found such a powerful backer.”
Everyone laughed at that.
It was then Natasha suddenly said, “All right. I'll leave you to your business. I'm hungry, so I'll look for
something to eat.”
“Bye, Natasha.”
“Have a good breakfast, Natasha!” Mike and Luke exclaimed happily.
Natasha merely smiled without saying a word.
She was about to leave when Kenneth suddenly grabbed her wrist and muttered softly, “Don't forget to
prepare my share.”
“I know,” replied Natasha.
Kenneth smiled.
Natasha left without saying another word.
After Natasha left, Mike remarked, “Kenneth, I can't help but say you've struck gold. Not only is
Natasha beautiful, but she's got a great personality.”
“That's right. It makes me feel like you're not worthy of her, Boss,” Luke added.
Upon hearing that, Kenneth turned to look at them. “Your backer isn't here anymore. Will you shut
yourselves up, or must I do it myself?”
Mike and Luke immediately zipped their mouths.
Suddenly, Alexia cut in, “All right. Enough fooling around. Should we get down to business?”
Mike answered, “You said that at the right time. That's right, let's get down to business.”
“Yes, let's do that.”
Alexia turned to face Kenneth. “Savior, we've already prepared the things according to your
instructions. When are we going to take action?”
Kenneth stared at her silently before shifting his gaze toward Dave, Mike, and Luke.
“Will she be joining in on the plan?” he asked.
Dave was about to say something when Alexia interrupted, “I'm the one who asked them to let me in on
it. It has nothing to do with Dave!”
Kenneth frowned and asked, “Aren't you a little young?”
Alexia looked into his eyes and said in a serious tone, “I'm already of age. Besides, I've always gotten
good results. Dave is aware of this too.”
At that moment, Dave walked over and nodded. “That's right. Although Alexia is young, she's always
had a good record at DX Group. She's a brilliant one.”
Kenneth furrowed his eyebrows and was about to say something when Dave quickly added, “The main
reason for her participation is that there isn't enough manpower, and Alexia wanted to volunteer, so I
agreed to it!”
“Dave...”
“I know what you're about to say, Kenneth. Since Alexia wants to do something for you, you should just
let her. If she can't do anything, she'll take it to heart and try to do something similar in the future if
there's a chance. Why not let her join in on the plan? That way, she can also pay you back for saving
her. It'll be killing two birds with one stone!”
Alexia immediately nodded along to Dave's words. “Savior, don't worry. I definitely won't get in your
way. Please believe me. I'll play my part well in this plan.”
Kenneth stared at Dave. Under numerous subtle hints from the latter, Kenneth reluctantly agreed.
He then shifted his gaze toward Alexia. “But I must remind you that tonight's mission will be dangerous.
If anything happens, I won't be responsible for it.”
Alexia nodded fervently. “You don't need to. I'll be responsible for the things that I want to do. I'm an
adult now—I can be responsible for my own life!”
Dave assured, “Don't worry, Kenneth. We're all aware of Alexia's skills. She's as skillful as Mike now, so
there won't be any problems!”
Alexia continued to nod as she turned to look at Kenneth. It looked as if she was asking to be praised.
“All right. You'll be in charge of her then,” Kenneth said to Dave.
Dave gave a slight nod in response. “Sure. I'll do it. After all, she's one of my people anyway. Of
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcourse, I'll be in charge of her.”
“Dave, I'm not one of your people. I'm from DX Group!” Alexia corrected him.
Dave chuckled. “Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're one of DX Group's people.”
Alexia swung her gaze back to Kenneth but said nothing else.
That was the end of that matter. Kenneth pondered briefly before announcing, “I'd like to add one more
person to this mission.”
“Who?” Dave asked.
“Spencer,” Kenneth replied.
“He's coming too?”
“It'll be much easier with his help. Plus, no one knows those medicines better than he does!” Kenneth
exclaimed.
Dave agreed, “That's true. I've also seen how skillful he is. Sure. I'll have them prepare another set of
resources for him.”
Kenneth nodded in response.
“Boss, we've arranged everything with the people in charge of the goods too. There won't be any
delay!”
Kenneth merely nodded again.
“We've also brought the items we need. They're in the car outside. Do you want to take a look?” Mike
asked.
Kenneth shook his head. “No need. I'm not worried if you guys are the ones handling things. However,
remember to keep an eye on Boss. If there is any change on his side, let me know immediately.
Otherwise, we'll go according to plan.”
Mike and Luke nodded. “Got it.”
“You all should go back for now. I'll meet up with you guys later,” said Kenneth.
Upon finishing their discussion, Mike and Luke left, followed by Alexia.
After they left, Kenneth's gaze fell on Dave.
“I'll check if there's anything else we missed.” Dave got up and was about to leave.
“Dave.” Kenneth stopped him.
Dave turned around helplessly to face him. “I know what you're about to say, but I'm doing this for your
own good...”
