 Chapter 294 Blackboo

Seeing that she had taken the initiative to talk to him, Westley did not put on airs anymore, and all the unhappiness on his face slowly receded.

“The puppy doesn’t have a name yet. He’s just a few days old. I just got him, and I didn’t have the time to name him. You can go ahead and pick out his name, ” Westley explained calmly.

He was willing to use the puppy as an excuse to communicate more with her, After all, Gabrielle liked the little guy very much

“Really? Hmm, what should I name you?” Gabrielle suddenly became nervous.

As a little girl, she loved baby animals and wanted to have a pet of her own, but her foster parents never allowed her.

She never had a chance to name a pet until now.

It was her first time.

So she supposed it was normal that she

was feeling a bit terse. “What about Little Black?” Westley suggested “Little Black?”

It was too generic for Gabrielle.

“He’s Black’s puppy, so it makes sense to call him Little Black,” he added. Westley was not a pet lover’, so growing up, he had never had a pet. So he was not really the first person one would ask for a pet name. Westley never had the thought or patience for it.

“Black has more than one puppy. so technically, there are many Little Blacks. I want his name to be unique. I’m thinking Blackboo. What do you think?” Gabrielle did not have much experience in naming pets as well, but she thought that uniqueness was a factor to consider when naming a pet.

“He’s yours. You can name him whatever you want.” Westley just nodded nonchalantly as per usual.

He cared more about the dog making Gabrielle happy than the dog itself. Blackboo it is then. It’s adorable and sounds like the name of a dark gem. This little guy is my little dark gem. Hi, Blackboo. Do you like your new name?” Gabrielle cooed at Blackboo, and Blackboo stared at her like he understood what she was saying.

Looking at Gabrielle and the puppy. Westley suddenly had a thought. He imagined Gabrielle coaxing a child.

He wondered if she would be as gentle to a baby as she was to Blackboo.

Maybe she would be gentler and look ten times more enchanting.

“Woof, woof, woof!”

Blackboo barked at Gabrielle as if to answer her yes, which was so adorable.

“That’s a good boy!” Gabrielle giggled and then turned to Westley. “Why did Tucker give us one of Black’s puppies by the way?” she asked. Gabrielle was confused.

She did not have a close relationship with Tucker. She liked Black very much, but she never expected to be chosen to adopt one of his puppies.

*The family that borrowed Black for breeding has given Tucker several puppies. He knew you liked dogs, so he decided to let you adopt one. Do you have a problem with that?” There was no emotion in Westley’s eyes. He was 50 good at hiding this true feelings that Gabrielle had given up completely on trying to read him long ago.

But of course Gabrielle had no problem at all with adopting Blackboo. She was very happy that Tucker gave him to her.

“No problem at all. I will take good care of him.” Gabrielle was overjoyed.

Hearing her reply, a faint smile appeared on Westley‘s face and then disappeared quickly.

He had to keep his facial expression neutral around Gabrielle.

Some things were not meant for her to see. At least not now.

*Very well. Blackboo may not be a child, but he’s still a big responsibility. I hope you’re up for the task. Don’t give up on him when things get tough.” Westley cleared his throat and eyed Gabrielle

seriously.

“Yes, I know. Don’t worry. I will feed him every day, bathe him, and play with him. + Gabrielle nodded with a determined look on her face

She had never stopped smiling since she laid eyes on Blackboo. Even a stranger who met her for the first time would be able to tell that she had a soft spot for animals
