Maja swallowed her stomach medication, her forehead slick with cold sweat.
Zoey glanced at the rearview mirror, pondering momentarily before speaking, "Mr. Pennyfeather, there's a rumor going around lately. It's said that Mr. Raymond is involved with the daughter of the Sanders family from overseas. And Mr. Raymond won this time, and everyone's talking about him."
A smirk tugged at Maja's lips. So, he had already won.
Despite her constant worry about his situation, when she knew he had won, she felt no surprise at all.
Of course, it was only fitting for him to sit on his throne of glory.
Seeing no instructions from her, Zoey pressed on the accelerator.
On returning to Rosewood Manor, Maja spotted the wolf sitting formally on the sofa in the living room.
However, she didn't know it was a wolf just yet, having always believed it was a dog.
"Rocky."
She called out. Rocky tilted his head, ignoring her call in a dignified manner.
For some reason, Maja thought it bore a striking resemblance to Ian.
She asked Maria, "What has it been eating recently?"
"Only imported beef from overseas. This dog is quite picky."
Maja gave a half-smile, a glint of warmth in her eyes.
"After all, it's a dog raised by Ian. It must have been fed well before."
Rocky shook its body, stretching lazily.
Maria's eyes shone with fondness, "Ms. Pennyfeather, to be honest, I've never seen such a huge dog before. I don't know where Mr. Raymond got it from, and no one can tell what breed it is."
At that moment, Rocky leaped off the sofa, landing with a hunter's grace.
Maja, feeling under the weather due to her upset stomach, spoke in a low tone from her seat on the sofa.
"Regardless of the breed, it's quite likeable and intelligent."
As she lay down, Rocky tilted its head to watch her.
Maja felt comforted. After resting for an hour, the pet hospital called her, saying she could take Coco home.
She quickly got up and went out to pick up Coco.
Coco needed home rest, but at least there didn't seem to be any major problems. Upon seeing Maja, Coco almost crashed through the glass door in excitement.
Maja paid the remaining medical fees, thanked the doctor again after hugging Coco, and brought her to the car.
However, since the moment Coco got a whiff of Maja's scent, its fur had been standing on end, a sign of danger.
But he didn't answer.
Looking at the disconnected call, her eyelashes drooped in disappointment, and she dialed Jeff's number.
"Jeff, the big dog Ian sent last time doesn't get along with Coco. Can you come and pick it up when you have time?"
Jeff glanced at the man sitting in the office chair, unsure of what to do.
"Miss Pennyfeather, the boss is still in a meeting. I'll ask him when he's done."
After saying that, he hung up.
"Boss, Miss Pennyfeather wants you to take Rocky back."
Ian stared at the files in his hands without saying a word.
Just when Jeff thought he wouldn't say anything, he put down the files, "You go and pick it up."
His tone was indifferent, his face expressionless.
Jeff was a bit taken aback. According to the boss's usual personality, he should have kept Rocky at Rosewood Manor to maintain a connection with Miss Pennyfeather.
But now, he was calmly asking him to take it back. Was this a sign that he wanted to sever all ties?
