My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 685

At this moment, Sophia’s innocent face and the picture that was circulating on the Internet flashed across his mind, occupying his every thought…

Meanwhile, after taking a bath, Judge came back and walked toward Sam. He was frightened when he sensed the murderous vibe coming from Sam.

After asking his assistant to come over, Sam whispered, “I don’t want to ever see those blabbermouths ever again!”

His assistant nodded and went on to take care of it.

After a while, the assistant asked, “I believe Miss Edwards is in some sort of trouble. Would you like to go and have a look?”

Sam quietly handed the dog lead to the bodyguard next to him and hurried to the scene.

At this moment, Sophia was anxiously looking for someone from the Edwards Family to unlock a door for her. When the waiter came with a set of keys and tried unlocking it, he realized that they were locked out. Just as they were about to break down the door, Sam showed up with his dog.

“What’s wrong?” Sam asked as he saw the worried look on Sophia’s face.

Sophia responded anxiously, “Something happened to my cat and the assistant who takes care of my cat. They are both in the room, and we’re trying to open this door.”

Since the key did not work, they planned to break down the door. The waiter, however, did not allow them to do so but insisted on first asking his superior for permission. This place was, after all, owned by the Edwards Family. It would not be proper to break their door down without their permission.

Thankfully, Sam showed up at the perfect time. Since he was here, they no longer had to get permission from anyone else. Together with Hale, Sam slammed his shoulder against the door. After breaking down the door, they found Ivan lying unconscious in the bathroom while Garfield was hiding underneath the bed, looking terrified.

They immediately admitted Ivan into the hospital that was on the island. This time around, the Edwards Family was fully prepared for this annual meeting. They even set up a hospital on this island. As such, they were able to send Ivan to the hospital for a check-up without delay.

Eventually, they found out the reason Ivan passed out—it was an allergic reaction. Had they arrived at the room slightly later, he would have died.

After a couple of hours, Ivan finally woke up.

After waking up, he quickly glanced about the surroundings and said, “Where’s Garfield? Where’s Garfield?”

Why on earth is he still worried about the cat?

Ivan finally calmed down when Sophia placed Garfield in his arms. Carrying Garfield in his arms, he let out a contented look.

Realizing that Ivan had regained his consciousness, Sam decided to retreat. “I’m afraid I have to go and prepare for dinner tonight. I’ll see you all later!”

If it weren’t because of Sam, Ivan would’ve died. At this moment, Sophia bustled up to Sam to express her gratitude.

In the bed, even though Ivan could hardly move, he would not let go of Garfield.

—

To him, as long as he had animals around him, nothing was too big of a deal for him. As he recalled the allergy incident today…

The thought of that sent an unexpected chill through him.

Since Ivan was allergic to shrimps, he had to be extra cautious with his diet whilst on the island. He had specially requested the restaurant on the island to not include shrimps in all his meals. For reasons unbeknownst to him, he still had it.

He believed that this was not because of his oversight, but that someone had intentionally tried to hurt him.

Apart from Bill, his ex-student, who knew about his shrimp allergy, no one else on this island knew about it…

Bill, did you start taking action against me already?

…

How did this happen?

Last night, Sophia discreetly told him about the studio of pet luxury goods that Lucy was starting and that Bill was her chief designer. Since Bill used to be Ivan’s student, they had a complicated relationship, and it wasn’t an amicable one. Just after that conversation, this incident happened today… Did Bill do this? Or did Lucy suggest it?

No. That’s not possible. My instinct tells me that Lucy isn’t such a person.

Even though she’s dominant and would never allow anyone to challenge her authority, she isn’t as dumb as Natasha, who wouldn’t hesitate to play dirty tricks to discredit her opponents. Lucy isn’t like that; she confronts her opponents head-on!
