Chapter 904
She didn’t even have a chance to ask what was going on.
Coco was tearing through the rain like a mad dog, but he wasn’t headed for Rosewood Manor. He was headed for Greenfield Gardens. Dogs seemed to have a sixth sense about people and their vibes.
After a long sprint, Coco was barking like mad at the gates of Greenfield Gardens. The security guard on duty was surprised to see him.
“Isn’t that Coco? What’s he doing out here?”
“I think Ms. Pennyfeather took him this morning.”
“Well, why’s he back then?”
“I don’t know. Just let him in.”
Ever since Maja had made a mess of Greenfield Gardens and got off scot–free, everyone had been treading lightly around her. They didn’t dare snub her dog.
The gate was opened and Coco shot inside. He ran all the way to the grand hall of Greenfield Gardens and dashed through the French doors.
lan was pulling an all–nighter in his study. He looked up from his paperwork to see Coco. Coco was soaking wet and left a trail of water behind him. lan’s expression hardened and he ordered a servant to give Coco a bath. Had the dog snuck over again? Maja was supposed to have taken him home. But no matter how much the servant tried to coax Coco, the dog wouldn’t stop barking at lan. Ian was just about to make himself another cup of coffee when the barking got on his nerves. The servant was flustered, not wanting to be too forceful with the dog. “Sir, it seems like Coco might be spooked by something.”
lan frowned and asked for a pair of gloves. He patted Coco’s head a little, and Coco immediately latched onto his pant leg and started pulling.
lan observed Coco for a moment and then dialed Maja’s number. A man he didn’t recognize answered the phone. “What do you want with her?”
lan squinted, still gently patting Coco’s head.
“Who are you?” he asked, keeping his cool.
I’m a new actor at Star Movie Group. Mr. Pennyfeather is in a meeting right now. If it’s important, call back tomorrow.”
The man hung up.
lan glanced at the clock. It was seven in the evening. Maja had stormed out earlier in the day. Was she really in the mood for a meeting? Coco started barking again.
lan yanked off his gloves and tossed them into a nearby trash can. “Jeff, find out where Maja is.”
Jeff nodded and immediately made a call.
lan got his coat and said, “Go to Rosewood Manor.” Jeff promptly brought the car around.
Coco hopped into the back seat like he always did, but lan ignored him, staring out the window instead.
When they were almost to Rosewood Manor, Coco started barking excitedly.
For a moment, lan thought Coco might have spotted Maja, but Coco was pointing toward the road that led to the park. Ian frowned and got out of the car. Coco bounded out of the car and started running down the path.
lan had a bad feeling about this. He ordered Jeff to send some police dogs over. There might be something wrong in the park.”
Coco was very smart, and he was as intelligent as a six–year–old child. He’d always been quick on his feet, so his behavior tonight likely meant he’d seen something. Given the breed’s natural energy and training from the people at Rosewood Manor, Coco could easily serve as a police dog.

The readers' comments on the novel: Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja)
Author, would you story about Ryan settling down and another story on Eric regaining his body and memories back from Patrick, and Eric also settling down as I find it so disheartening for him to have gone through what he went through at the research institute, and I'll like for him to get his "golden boy" life back though, not at the detriment of Ian....
When will the author update to finish Beck's story? What about Dylan and Tyler's love lives? Also, I'll like the author to write on Wilma and Elvis ending up together as she was quite persistent in pursuing him. And Shawn's story, Cornelia Sullivan and Omar Casson. Also, a little write-up on Jeff (Ian's assistant) love life, too. Thanks, author for updating....
