Standing by the side, Sophia felt her blood run cold. Her back was wet with cold sweat, and she felt like the guillotine was hanging over her head. She didn’t dare to say a word nor move a muscle, and she didn’t dare to look at Corrado either. Every time she looked at it, the sight of it with a mouthful of sh*t automatically flashed across her mind.
Sam was vigorously licked by Corrado. Taking out his handkerchief, he wiped his face and noticed Sophia’s serious expression. Thus, he quickly asked, “Sophia, what’s wrong?”
Sophia hurriedly replied, “It’s nothing… It’s nothing.”
Meanwhile, Michael was grinning from ear to ear. He seemed unusually happy as he said, “Master Sam, rest assured. Corrado has been very happy these days. It even gained some weight.”
Corrado wagged its tail and followed behind Sam. It was very clingy.
Michael knew that Sam had rushed over right before dinnertime so that he could eat with them. Usually, Michael would get upset whenever Sam came over to eat with them. However, he seemed unnaturally happy today. He even went so far as to invite Sam to join him for a cup of tea, and they chatted away happily.
On the other hand, Sophia sat by the side, not daring to say a word.
Even Sam noticed that Sophia was acting strangely today. It looked like something was weighing on her conscience. Taking the opportunity when Michael left to the toilet, he quickly asked Sophia, “Sophia, are you alright?”
Sophia felt very guilty. “I’m fine.”
Recalling the hot topic these days, he deliberately dragged the conversation back to Irene. “I saw the news recently. Public opinion is very unfavorable to you. Do you want me to help? I have a lot of friends in the legal profession.”
She quickly shook her head in response. “No, that won’t be necessary.”
Whenever she looked at his face, her head was automatically filled with the image of Corrado with a mouthful of sh*t as well as the sight of him kissing the dog. Then, the two images overlapped and an automatic rendering effect was applied to them. In the end, the images became one of Sam with his mouth full of sh*t. Thus, she didn’t dare to look at him directly or face him at all.
He wanted to continue the conversation. However, she eagerly said, “Master Sam, Corrado looks a little homesick these days. Why don’t you bring it home for now?”
She didn’t dare to help take care of it anymore. Now that it had gone off astray under her watch, she had to send it back as soon as possible. Otherwise, she might not be able to withstand Master Sam’s fury when the conspiracy was revealed. I feel like I’m about to be torn apart! Should I get rid of the dog?
He frowned and looked very troubled. “To be honest, I came here to let you know that I’m going abroad again soon. It’s too inconvenient to bring Corrado with me. So, I hope you can continue to help take care of it for a while. Once I’m done with my work, I’ll come and take Corrado back. I promise I won’t trouble you for too long.”
She smiled with difficulty. “Sure, sure…”
He didn’t know what was going on today. She seemed dispirited today, but he couldn’t tell what was wrong either. Right now, the entire country was hoping that she would step aside and allow Michael and Irene to get back together again. Yet, all she wanted was for him to bring his dog home? I don’t believe that she isn’t affected by it at all.
As soon as he left, Sophia threw away the chopsticks, bowls, and cups that he had used. This is bad! Whenever I see his face, my mind is filled with the image of Corrado with its mouthful of sh*t! I can’t help but feel like there’s a strong stench of sh*t coming from the utensils that he used. In fact, his entire being seemed to exude that inexplicable smell of sh*t… The amazing image that Master Sam had has been utterly destroyed!
Irene had been waiting for Michael over the past few days. I knew he would definitely come to see me. Lying on the bed, she looked extremely feminine as she closed her eyes and waited for him to arrive. As the sound of footsteps rang out, she silently counted down to the moment he would enter the room.
“Irene, we came to visit you!” A beautiful voice sounded suddenly. A girl in a rose-red outfit was following behind Michael. Isn’t that Sophia?!
