Chapter 1229
“It was just brought back the day before yesterday and it has been kept in the annex.” Suzy took one step to the side and motioned Lily to look inside with a tilt of her head. “Look, is it very mighty?”
Lily looked inside the annex and saw that there was truly a big dog chained up in there. The big dog was panting heavily while looking outside and it gave Lily such a fright that she involuntarily took a step back.
“This dog is a little frightening,” Lily said while laughing, “did you come to the annex to feed it?”
“That’s right.” Suzy nodded. “Such a big dog can’t be kept in the main building as it would frighten the children, so it can only be kept in the annex.”
“Oh, I see.”
Lily nodded and then said, “Alright then. 1’11 go look elsewhere.”
“Alright. Do you need me to help you?”
“No need. No need.”
Lily waved and left quickly. Suzy secretly grinned behind her.
After Lily returned to the main building, she happened to see Meredith and Josiah taking the children down the stairs.
Meredith followed Lily into the kitchen and asked softly, “How was it, Lily? Did you see anything strange?”
Lily shook her head and said softly, “Mrs. Shelby is keeping a very big brown dog in the annex. Suzy went over to feed the dog.”
“A big brown dog?” Meredith was slightly surprised.
Could it be that Suzy was holding dog food? Then, why did she act so mysteriously?
“Yes. That dog looks a little scary. Suzy said she was afraid that it would frighten the children, so she did not dare to keep it in the main building.”
Lily saw that Meredith’s expression was very serious, so she asked in confusion, “Miss Meredith, you seem to care why Suzy went to the annex, don’t you?”
