Pampered by My Ex-husband (Penny and Orlando) novel Chapter 71

Chapter 71 If These Five Hundred are Given to Orlando

Just as he was about to shoo it away, he saw the white figure growling fiercely at the couple passing by. The couple were probably office workers from the nearby office building.

The couple held a child in their hands. At this moment, the child was directly frightened to tears by the shouting.

The woman pulled the child behind her and stared angrily at Orlando.

"What is wrong with you? Can't you even leash your dog when taking it for a walk? It's really uncivilized. What if your dog bites my child? The mortality rate of rabies is one hundred percent. Since you have a dog, can't you be a bit responsible?"

Her husband noticed Orlando's demeanor and the expensive car behind him.

He quickly pulled his wife and said, "Just keep quiet."

They couldn't afford to offend someone like him.

The woman, driven by her protective instinct, didn't care about Orlando's identity at the moment. She wiped her daughter's tears while coldly snorting.

"Just because you have money, do you think you're superior? You really lack manners. Have you ever heard the saying that walking a dog without a leash is like a dog walking the person?"

Orlando frowned, "It's not my dog."

As soon as he finished speaking, Niko wagged its tail frantically towards him and circled around him.

Caught in the Act.

Orlando's pupils contracted, and his face immediately darkened.

The woman wiped away her daughter's tears and said, "Do you still say it's not your dog?!"

Zane squatted down and checked the dog tag on the dog's body.

"There's a phone number on it. It must have accidentally run out of its home. I'll call its owner right away."

The woman froze, seeing that they didn't seem to be lying, and she couldn't continue to argue. She held her sobbing daughter and left.

Zane quickly dialed the phone number on the tag.

Penny searched around outside but she couldn't find any trace of Niko.

Many possibilities had already come to her mind, and the scariest one was that Niko had accidentally been targeted by dog traffickers.

There was a dog tag on Niko, so if an ordinary person found it, they should have called her number.

Just as she was thinking this, her phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello, hello." Penny's tone was a bit urgent.

Although he wasn't particularly fond of these creatures, this dog looked really good and its fur was well-groomed. The key was that it was well-behaved, showing that its owner took good care of it.

Zane didn't dare to play with the dog in front of Orlando, so he just patted it twice outside the coffee shop before leading it inside.

Niko seemed to particularly like Orlando and would rush over to him whenever it saw him.

When Penny pushed open the door and entered, she immediately saw the man sitting by the window.

His wrists were long, and his eyebrows slightly furrowed. Just sitting there, he exuded an elegant and upright aura, with his slender jade-like hand resting on the keyboard. His lowered gaze carried a clear and cold air.

She was puzzled as to how she ended up meeting Orlando here. Her gaze then shifted downwards and she saw something lying by his leg.

Orlando's assistant, Zane, was holding the dog leash, not allowing Niko to move any further.

Meanwhile, Orlando remained calm and composed, quietly conducting his meeting without any disturbance.

Thinking back to what Keely had said, Penny quickly walked towards them.

"Mr. Fletcher."

She called out, unsure whether to give him the red envelope she had in her hand or not.

If it was for someone else, she wouldn't hesitate, but this was Orlando. How much would his ten minutes be worth?
