Chapter 1806
Little Max just found his own spot.
After a few adjustments, he finally achieved the perfect level of coziness.
Just as he comfortably laid down, he saw Ivy and Wayne heading out.
Max immediately perked up his ears, quickly got up, and followed them.
The Scott family has had a lot of guests lately.
To avoid unnecessary hassles, Wayne hardly ever goes to the front of the house.
Fortunately, the Scott family’s place is pretty big.
A five–minute walk from their little courtyard, there’s a golf course.
These past few days, Ivy and Cory would accompany Wayne here in the mornings for a stroll and to stretch their legs. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
But today, unluckily, there were a few people playing golf on the course.
“Dad, do you think they’ll mind?” Ivy looked towards Wayne.
Wayne shook his head, “No worries, we’ll just keep our distance.”
“Okay!” Ivy obediently nodded, then patted Max on the head, “Max, those folks over there are all strangers, okay? Stay cool. You might scare them if they’re afraid of dogs.”
Max grumbled a bit and shot a glance at Wayne.
Just as Wayne looked back at him, Max immediately looked away.
“Huh?” Wayne approached him, “Max, you been up to some mischief? Why so jittery all of a sudden?”
“Yeah.” Ivy also noticed that something was off about Max. Ever since her dad returned from his disappearance, Max had grown really fond of him, spending more time with him than with her.
But today, while her dad was working in his room, Max chose to lie outside by himself.
“Did he sneak some of Molly’s snacks again?” Ivy lifted Max’s ears and asked in a whisper.
Max immediately started to whine anxiously.
“Probably.” Wayne gave in, “Max, those snacks are too salty, they’re not for dogs.”
Max whimpered again, hanging his head low, looking rather pitiful.
“Alright, alright, let’s let it slide this time. I won’t scold you anymore!” Ivy rarely saw Max looking so sorry.
Ever since he was rescued from the brink of death, Max had been fearless and cocky around the house.
He was the dog that could take down Calvin!
This was his first time looking so pitiful.
Hearing Ivy’s words, Max remained with his head hanging low.
Ivy thought, maybe he just needed some time to cool down.
After all, getting caught red–handed snacking was quite a blow to his pride.
Ivy decided to stop scolding him and continued her chat with her dad.
While attentively listening to his daughter, out of the corner of his eye, Wayne noticed the boy who’d almost been hit by a bicycle standing with the golfers. Perhaps sensing Wayne’s gaze, the boy waved at him.
Wayne politely nodded and turned his attention back to his daughter.
“Dad, what were you looking at?” Ivy followed Wayne’s gaze.
“Nothing.” Wayne gently shook his head.
The next second, he heard the boy exclaim, “Watch out!”
Wayne immediately looked over and saw a golf ball flying towards them.
Almost instinctively, he pushed Ivy to the side.
Unfortunately, there happened to be a slope right next to them.
tvy was worried that her dad might fall due to his mobility issues.
So, they chose to walk on the side with the slope.
