Chapter 290 His Excellent Mood
Donald’s face showed no emotion as he took the plate and placed it onto the highest shelf of a rack located in the far corner.
Bruce came to a sudden halt in the middle of a step. Having observed everything, he inhaled deeply, made a conscious effort to settle his nerves, then fixed his gaze on Donald. “Are you seriously not going to let me have it?”
Still holding the spatula, Donald replied in a tone that sounded completely natural. “Dinner isn’t ready
Bruce said evenly, “You’ll be sleeping on the floor tonight.”
After saying that, he began to limp back toward his stool, using the wall for support.
Donald’s hand stopped moving, and a chunk of meat flew out of the pan. He glanced up at Bruce, a not- very–clever idea flickering behind his eyes.
Bruce knew exactly what was going through his mind. “The effect of the medicine won’t last forever. If you even think about doing something stupid… tomorrow you’ll be sleeping in your own…”
Before Bruce could finish the sentence, Donald was already dashing over with the plate, extending it toward him with both hands. “Have this first. Dinner will be ready in just a moment.”
Then he rushed back to the stove.

During dinner, he behaved even worse, pulling Zachary onto his lap and squirming around nonstop. Playful and cheeky, yet his expression remained perfectly calm and serious.
A pair of eating sticks clattered onto the floor. Zachary turned around, furious. “Are you going to let me eat or not?”
Matthew cheerfully picked up his own eating sticks. “I’ll feed you.”
Once they were both full, Zachary began to worry about what was coming that night. He cupped Matthews face and asked gently, “Can you please try to finish quickly tonight?”

So the next morning, while the other cubs charged at herds of antelope and other small plant–eaters, Jaders and Taylor secretly followed an ostrich and discovered a nest full of enormous eggs.
“Roar!”
“Awoo!”
What happened next felt like a repeat of before, but this time the danger was much greater. Jaden and Taylor fled desperately, each one gripping a swollen hide pouch tightly in their jaws.
Behind them. a huge ostrich spread its wings and rumbled across the ground in furious pursuit
Eventually, Jaden and Taylor managed to climb to safety in a tree. The ostrich stormed around below. letting out furious squawks, until the adult panthers showed up and chased it away,
“Whew–what a relief, nothing cracked,” Taylor laughed, immediately forgetting how his rear end had nearly been pecked and how his tail had been hanging low from fear.
His cheerful mood didn’t stay for long, though.
