Why? Why?! Michael obviously belonged to her, so why did this woman named Scarlett snatch him from her? Did she think that she could enchant him just because she had the same face as Sophia? But there were dogs everywhere here, so Irene didn’t dare to do anything and could only hide in a corner. Sooner or later, Faye would teach Scarlett a lesson! Just you wait!
Sandra saw the opportunity and went toward Linus silently. “Hi, Linus, long time no see. Do you remember me?”
A few years had passed, and Sandra was no longer the ugly duckling who stammered in English all the time. She had now transformed into a white swan, and she believed Linus must be able to notice her.
Linus also saw Sandra, and he naturally remembered her. After all, she was Sophia’s cannon fodder. “Miss Mitchell! I hope that you’re well.” Linus raised a glass to Sandra.
“Wow, this Akita dog is so beautiful. Looking at its coat and appearance, it must be the offspring of a rare dog breed.” Sandra praised the dog enthusiastically.
Linus said, “…This is a Cethosian mutt.”
M-Mutt?! The corners of Sandra’s mouth twitched. The dignified vice president of Michel Group actually had a mutt as a pet?! She had already started this topic, so she had to continue talking about it no matter what. “Mutts are great… What’s its name?”
Linus said, “Its name is Blessing.”
The corners of Sandra’s mouth twitched again. Linus didn’t understand why everyone made such an expression when they heard that his dog was named Blessing. He liked this mutt. It looked fierce but it was cute. Plus, it understood humans extremely well and looked after his home. He had decided to stay in Cethos for a period of time, so he brought Blessing over. Blessing was more obedient and more clever than the other dogs at home. In addition, he didn’t think there was anything wrong with its name. In contrast, celebrities and rich ladies liked to call their dogs ‘Black’, ‘Lucky’, and ‘Lowell’. They sounded high class, but in Linus’s view, the name ‘Blessing’ was a way better name.
Sandra laughed nervously and continued to talk awkwardly, trying to find a common topic with Linus, but it proved difficult for her. “Mr. Linus, what kind of sports do you usually like to do?” It was easy for her to find common ground with him on this topic. She could talk about any sports that he was interested in as she was an athlete.
Linus said, “I’m an introvert, so I usually just play online games at home.”
Sandra responded, “Ahh… haha, I didn’t expect Mr. Linus’s hobby to be so trendy. Mr. Linus, it’s your first time coming to Bayside, so you must try some Bayside cuisine. I know of several restaurants…”
“Oh, I always cook and eat at home. I don’t like eating outside food,” Linus replied calmly.
Sandra pretended to be surprised. “Wow, I didn’t know that you knew how to cook! I wonder if I can have the honor of tasting your cooking?”
Linus frowned. “I’m afraid not. I only cook for my family.”
Sandra was speechless once again. Sophia had been eavesdropping, and she heard Linus trying to end the conversation several times. If Linus didn’t want to talk to others, he would be able to shut them up in a few words; if he was talking with people he liked, he could talk about everything and anything. She felt she had to go save him from this.
