My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 519

Linus had high EQ—even though today was just a small party among close friends, knowing that Michael and Sophia were trying to conceive, he put in the effort in preparing some special snacks and drinks for him.

Not only so, but the three bowls that he brought over were all different: two of them were of blue-and-white porcelain, and the other had some pink bubble designs.

As such, Linus reckoned that Michael and Daniel would definitely go for the porcelain ones as the other one seemed feminine; it even had a spoon of a different shape.

Of course, that was the one Linus prepared for Sophia, who was having such a good time and had forgotten about drinking anything. Since Michael was here, Linus thought it would not be culturally appropriate for him to bring her a bowl of herbal soup that would aid with her pregnancy.

As such, Linus used a different spoon to hint at Michael for him to save it for Sophia.

Michael was still deep in thought when he was slowly drinking the soup with a spoon. Not long after he sat down, two big orange cats jumped into his arms.

He looked at the two orange cats, which reminded him of the cats that he had at home. He then realized that those were indeed his as all four of his orange cats were here—two of them were in his arms while the other two were circling Linus as if they were dogs.

At this point, Linus was conversing with a foreigner, and the moment he sat down, one of the cats jumped onto his lap. Following that, Nathan showed up with the Persian cat in his arms; he walked up to Linus before sitting next to him.

While Michael was drinking the herbal soup, he sensed a scorching gaze on him. So, he looked up and saw that Stanley’s husky was attentively staring at him and the bowl in his hands.

Feeling somewhat nervous, Michael quickly waved the husky off. “Go away. Stupid dog. Go away!”

 

Even though the husky left, not long after that, Michael saw Linus come out of his kitchen with two dog bowls with freshly prepared dog meals in them. The moment the husky saw that, it ran toward Linus.

Simultaneously, Nathan’s Samoyed puppy and Linus’ dog also joined in. It was quite a sight to see those three dogs eating together.

 

Linus’ dog was a mutt that did not quite match its owner. Word had it that it used to be a stray dog, and according to Sophia, Linus adopted him through some posts on Twitter.

At this moment, Nathan knelt in front of the dogs and watched them eat, occasionally licking his lips. Upon seeing that, Judge waved his tail and scooted over, leaving a spot in front of the dog bowl for Nathan.

Linus patted Judge and knelt to almost the same height as Nathan. While he was patting Judge, he even explained to Nathan about the different breeds of dogs.

The sight of this made Michael feel extremely uneasy. Linus had only appeared in their lives not long ago, but he had already come to know Sophia, Nathan, Michael, and even every single cat and dog that they had. On the flipside, Michael knew nothing about him.

To Michael, Linus was a private person who would never tell anyone about his family and background. No matter how much Michael tried to elicit that information from him, his efforts were never fruitful.

This person was eerily private, and it did not help that Michael liked to think the worst of everything.

The reason Michael sold this place to Linus was so that he could try and make him talk about Fass, but he regretted that decision now as not only was he unable to extract any information on Fass, he was also getting more involved in Linus’ life.

At this moment, Sophia happily came up to Michael and said, “Linus told me he has prepared something for me!”

Right away, she saw the bowl of herbal soup on the coffee table that was still piping hot. She then carried the cat that was in Michael’s arms and began drinking the herbal soup. After finishing it, she even helped herself with a second bowl.

This whole time, Michael was still deep in thought about the question earlier.

After the orange cat left Michael, it yawned before stretching its body while strutting around in the living room as if it lived here. It even habitually went to the cat bowl to get food.

It had only been a couple of days, but since when did Michael’s cat become so familiar with Linus’ place?

So many things that were taking place now made Michael feel uneasy.
