You're Out Daddy

Chapter 799 There Is A Spy In DX Group

They were just done fooling around when Dave opened the door and entered the room.

Noticing the stern expression on his face, Kenneth asked, “What happened?”

Dave peered at Natasha before saying in a low voice, “I'm afraid to say that your efforts today were in vain.”

“You didn't catch the culprit?” Natasha questioned.

Even though he was unwilling to admit it, Dave nodded. His voice was filled with rage when he said, “Yeah. He

managed to get away.”

Hearing that, Kenneth probed, “Did anyone hurt themselves during the operation?”

Dave shook his head. “Luckily, no. Even though there was an exchange of fire, nobody got wounded. The man is

vigilant and alert, though, so apprehending him won't be easy.”

Natasha raised her brow as she glanced at Kenneth, speaking in a calm, uneventful voice. “To be honest, I feel

better knowing that we didn't catch him. I'll feel uneasy if we manage to apprehend him smoothly.”

After all, handling a person and a matter like this wouldn't usually go as planned.

Kenneth nodded in agreement. “Nat is right. Don't give up. There are more chances to come. At least the person

probably won't show up anymore.”

“Who knows whether he will keep his words or not?” Dave retorted.

“It doesn't matter. The hole in your system? I've already told...” Natasha trailed off, turning her head to look at the

person beside her.

Cosmos noticed her action and hurriedly reminded, “Cosmos.”

Natasha bobbed her head. “Yes. I've told him that as long as you patch the hole, these people won't be able to

attack your system again.”

“All right. Thank you for your help!” Dave nodded.

“You let me stay and eat here, and I haven't expressed my gratitude for you yet.”

“It's okay. I'll ask Kenneth to compensate me.”

Natasha grinned upon hearing Dave's response.

Just then, Kenneth spoke. “What Nat did isn't enough to compensate for the food and drinks you supplied her?”

“Nope. What she did was more than enough.”

“Then why do you want to settle the debt with me?”

“The debt is yours.”

Dave's words rendered Kenneth speechless while Mike and Cosmos burst out laughing at their humorous exchange.

However, their laughter caught Kenneth's attention. The latter glanced at them, speaking in a low voice, “Is there

anything that I can help you two with?”

Mike and Cosmos immediately froze before shaking their heads in unison. “N-Nope.”

“Then why are you guys still here? Do you want to add my contact number too?” Kenneth asked.

Mike and Cosmos quickly headed out together.

“Bye, Kenneth.”

“Bye, Dave.”

With that, they disappeared from the room.

Watching Cosmos and Mike's retreating backs, Dave was curious. “What contact number?”

Kenneth shifted his gaze to Dave upon hearing his question. “Your men asked for Nat's contact number just now.

You should be doing something about that!”

Dave chuckled. “Why so? Are you jealous?”

“Jealous? Of them?” Kenneth snorted. “Are you kidding me? They aren't courageous enough to do anything

anyway.”

“Then what are you being so agitated for?” Dave countered.

“I find them annoying, okay?”

“Ms. Watson didn't say anything, though.” With that, Dave turned to Natasha. “If you feel burdened by their actions,

you can outright reject them, okay? You don't need to consider our feelings.”

“I don't feel that way. Don't worry. He's just a really great kid. Not only did he not get angry after I lectured him, but

he also apologized to me after that.”

“If he knew who you really are, I think he might be feeling so regretful now that he would be kneeling on the floor,

crying.”

Natasha laughed.

“However, it's his honor to be guided by you,” Dave continued.

“Well, everything's fine as long as you're not worried about me endangering the safety of DX Group.”

“Hmm, there's no way we can stop you if that's what you wanted to do,” Dave stated. He knew how talented

Natasha was.

“Actually, it's not as easy as you think. It can be challenging to hack into a system with no loophole or flaws.”

Both Kenneth and Dave were intelligent people. They immediately froze upon hearing Natasha's words.

Kenneth gazed at her. “Nat, do you mean...”

“Yes. That's exactly what I mean,” Natasha replied.

Kenneth and Dave exchanged a look.

“Are you sure?” Kenneth probed further.

“Even though there are many loopholes in the system, they aren't gaping problems that scream for attention. Thus,

it's not easy to spot them under normal circumstances. That man wouldn't have been able to hack into the system

so effortlessly if he had no insider intel.”

Dave's expression turned somber when he heard Natasha's explanation. The thought of a spy in the organization

had never crossed his mind before.

Natasha spoke again while Dave was pondering the possibility. “That being said, the spy didn't reveal much to that

man. If not, that man would have hacked into the system completely by now. Maybe we should let this spy off the

hook this time, for they might be useful in the future.”

“They betrayed us. No matter how little damage their actions caused, it is still betrayal!” Dave remarked coldly.

Natasha did not respond, nor did she bother to advise Dave further because she felt the same way as him. To her, a

betrayal was a betrayal, regardless of how much damage had been done.

Realization dawned on Kenneth then. “Is that why you agreed to give Cosmos your contact number?”

“I suspected him at first. But when he asked me for my number, I crossed him off the list because if he were the

one who was behind this, he would be afraid of me, not daring to contact me further,” Natasha explained.

Kenneth was thrilled to hear that.

Bingo! I knew Nat would never simply add someone as her friend. Now everything makes sense!

Dave was deep in his thoughts when he lifted his eyes, catching the visible smugness on Kenneth's face. He

furrowed his brows. “Hello, Kenneth? Can you please control yourself? We are talking about something serious

here.”

Kenneth looked at him. “Why should I? This matter is yours to solve, and you are responsible for investigating your

people too. Nat and I have done so much for you. You're on your own now!”

“You! Don't forget that this would've been your matter to worry about in the past too!” Dave fumed.

Kenneth shrugged with a smirk. “As you said, that was in the past. It's your responsibility now! Well, since you need

to start going through your internal staff, Nat and I shouldn't be here anymore. We're leaving.” With that, Kenneth

got up, preparing to leave.

“Wait a moment.”

“For what?”

“I have something I want to discuss with you two.”

Kenneth shifted his gaze to Dave.

“I'm not joking. It's some information I have about Boss!” Dave voiced seriously.

Kenneth and Natasha exchanged glances upon hearing his words. Then, the man turned to Dave. “Go on.”
