Chapter 71: If you give this 500 to Nick.
Declan just moved his hands to shoo it away.
They then saw the white shadow barking fiercely twice at the people passing by.
One of them was a couple and was holding a child, who at the moment was directly frightened by the screams and cried.
The woman pulled the child behind herself and stared at Nick with an angry look on her face.
“What’s the matter with you guys? You came out to walk your dog without a leash? Really no sense! What if your dog bites my child? The mortality rate of rabies is one hundred percent. Since you have the dog, can you be a little responsible?”
Her husband, however, noticed the aura around Nick and the multi-million dollar limousine behind him.
He pulled his wife hastily, “You don’t say so much.”
They couldn’t afford to offend such people.
But at that moment the woman was also eager to protect her daughter. Where did she care about Nick’s identity?
She wiped her own daughter’s tears while coldly grunting, “Are rich people great? Really unqualified! Have you heard of the saying, walking a dog without a leash is the same as a dog walking a person.”
Nick frowned, “Not my dog.”
As soon as the words were out of his mouth, Gummy wagged his tail frantically at him and circled him.
Nick’s pupils shrunk and his face went straight to black.
The woman finished wiping her own daughter’s tears, and mocked him, “Not your dog?”Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
Declan squatted down and checked the dog’s license on the dog.
“There’s a phone number on it, it must have accidentally gotten out of the house. I will call its owner.”
The woman froze, and seeing as they didn’t look like they were lying, she couldn’t say anything else and left, holding her daughter who was still sobbing.
Declan rushed to call the number above.
Victoria looked around outside and never saw any sign of Gummy.
A number of possibilities had sprung to her mind. The scariest one was that maybe Gummy had been accidentally targeted by a dog dealer.
Gummy had dog tags, so if a regular person came across it, they would have called her number.
Just as she was thinking that, her cell phone rang with an unfamiliar number.
“Hello.” Victoria sounded a little eager.
“Hello! Is this the dog’s owner? He’s with us now. Do you know Andrews Enterprise? We are outside the parking garage of the building.”
There was no one in Veridian City who didn’t know Andrews Enterprise.
Victoria was a little surprised that Gummy was running there.
“Yes! Thank you. I’ll be right over, just ten minutes. Please keep an eye on it and I’ll pay you for it, is that okay?”
Declan glanced at Nick, who was looking at the dog at his feet. He wondered what Nick was thinking while Gummy was sitting nicely on the floor, moving both ears up and down.
Declan nodded when he saw he had no objections, “Okay, we’ll wait ten minutes for you.”
Victoria didn’t know who picked up Gummy, but she would have to pay him later.
She drew five hundred-dollar bills from her bag, then slammed her foot on the gas and rushed to the Andrews Enterprise parking lot.
Declan hung up the phone and pointed to a coffee shop off to the side.
“Mr. Andrews, why don’t you go sit inside while I buy a leash?”
Nick’s eyes fell back on Gummy. He thought all along that there was something familiar about the dog.
But since he was allergic to dog hair and didn’t want to verify anything, he went to the coffee shop, turned on his Bluetooth headset, and started the online meeting.
Declan took Gummy and went to a store not far away and asked for a leash, then he pulled him back.
Although he wasn’t really interested in pets, the dog was a real looker, with a beautifully groomed and obedient coat, and it was obvious that his owner had raised him with great care.
Outside the cafe, Declan stroked its head, which led it inside.
Gummy seemed to be extraordinarily fond of Nick and rushed over when he saw him.
Victoria caught a glimpse of the man sitting by the window as she pushed her way in.
His wrist bone was very long, his eyebrows gently twisted. Just by sitting there, he presented a sense of elegance through the body lines that were smooth and upright. His long and slender, jade-like hands were falling on the keyboard, dropping eyes with a clear and cold gas.
She was wondering how she could have met Nick here when her eyes traveled down and she saw something lying flat on the ground
Declan was holding the leash, not allowing Gummy to take another step forward
.
While Nick was more calm than anyone else, attending the online meeting quietly and undisturbed.
Thinking about what Elizabeth had said, Victoria hurriedly approached quickly.
“Mr. Andrews.” She blurted out, squeezing the money in her hand, unsure whether to give it or not.
It was fine to give it to anybody else, but it was Nick. How much would his ten minutes be worth?
