Joe suddenly remembered that Linus had appeared at the reunion banquet he held for Sophia the other day, and he even brought a cat with him.
Cats were everywhere, but a cat from Linus was extraordinary!
The military dogs had already barged into the West Residence. Walking behind them, Stanley said loudly as soon as someone was about to block them, “What are you guys doing? These are military dogs with proper military positions! It’s illegal to harm them!”
In the few seconds of the military dogs searching through the entire house, the entire atmosphere was about to explode.
Sophia retorted, “But what if I find it here? If something happens to my cat, how are you going to take the responsibility?”
Mr. West was furious beyond belief. If Sarah were the person standing opposite to him, he would have given her a slap.
No one in this household had ever dared to challenge his authority!
On top of that, he was organizing a birthday party for his wife today, so all the guests were family members. Where should he place his dignity if someone younger than him wrecked the entire occasion?
How would I be able to even lift my head in front of the West and Edwards Families in the future?
Gritting his teeth, Mr. West growled, “If you can’t find your cat here, you must take responsibility for this and apologize to Judy!”
Sophia met his gaze unflinchingly. “If my cat isn’t found, I’ll kneel before her; if it’s found here, she’ll have to kneel before me. If my cat is fine, add a kowtow to me, and I’ll let things slide; if my cat is injured, I’ll kill her.”
“Outrageous!” Mr. West was so angry that he snorted out laughing.
What an insolent brat!
Seeing that both of them were about to start a fight because of a cat, the rest of the West Family members watched from afar.
“My, my, rich people are really enjoying their lives. I can’t believe that they can get into such a huge quarrel for a cat.”
“But it seems like it’s real. Someone saw Judy secretly stealing the cat away when they weren’t paying attention.”
Hearing the murmurs from the others, Ivan had a strange glint in his eyes.
He recalled the time when his dog was thrown from the tenth floor. He ran all the way to the ground like a lunatic, but it was already dead.
He went berserk and reported this to the police to fight for justice for his dog.
However, the perpetrator was a man from a poor family who was renting from other people. His mother was disabled, and he was working part time. His wife was jobless, and he had three kids to feed.
The dog was thrown by the man who was the pillar of the family. He had no money at all; the most he could do was to exchange his family’s lives for Ivan’s dog.
Even the police said, “No matter how much your dog is worth, we can’t possibly ask him to take the responsibility. He’s just an unreasonable person who can’t afford to pay you anything!”
However, to Ivan, that wasn’t merely his dog—it was his family, his only hope!
No one would take responsibility for the death of a dog, because a human’s life was more precious than that of a dog. Hence, he could do nothing about it.
Seeing that Sophia dared to make a big fuss out of this for her cat, it showed that she treated it as a part of her family.
Seeing that the entire situation was about to go out of control, Joe quickly told Mr. West, “Mr. West, just return the cat to her. It’s a very important cat to my daughter. Young kids, you know, love all these dogs and cats. On top of that, this cat was—”
“I believe that Judy didn’t take your daughter’s cat!” Mr. West interrupted Joe immediately.
However, right after he said that, Stanley’s voice rang. “We found it!”
Three military dogs were each holding three different things in their mouths—a cat, a collar, and a cat shirt that Garfield wore. The collar and the shirt were even found in the trash!
Sophia quickly took the cat from the dog’s mouth. Garfield seemed to be shocked. Right after it saw Sophia, it cried immediately, with tears flooding its eyes.
Judy really stole her cat?
With a loud bang, the door was closed. The atmosphere of the hall had reached an extreme point.
