It is really handy to have a dog to rest your feet at tiring moments… And you can also wipe your feet.
Nathan saw Bubbles passing by and he instinctively wanted to rest his feet on Bubbles. However, he suddenly remembered the reason Sophia and Michael had a fight this time so he hurriedly lifted his feet up, for fear that his ‘countryman’ habit would be disgusted by the nobles from Northern Europe. But when he saw Cooper rest his feet on Corrado’s back, he also stretched out his feet comfortably.
Linus couldn’t sleep either. His eyes were half-open and his body sinked into the sofa. Then, he saw the alpaca passing by. Although he was too tired to even move a finger, he put his feet on the alpaca. Just like that, the three of them lay on the sofa all night.
…
Dozens of people went to find Michael together. Sophia had located Michael and Alice’s location through technical means and everybody was heading toward that location.
They walked arduously in the snow but the few sled dogs they brought were running even though they were dragging the rescue equipment. It wasn’t just Cereberus who was brought down to help but also Snowball, who came for a holiday, was on a leash. After all, Samoyed was also a sled dog.
At that time, Sophia no longer cared about pressing cigarette butts on flower pots anymore because the person who did it was missing! She realized that the person was more important than a pot of flowers. At that moment, she remembered that the pot of flowers that she cherished was actually gifted to her by him after he travelled through rivers and mountains for them.
He knows that I like flowers so he travelled the world to collect the most beautiful and exotic plants and flowers and planted an entire garden for me, filling my life with fragrance and romance. However, I forgot about the whole garden and only focused on the cigarette butt in that one flower pot!
Sophia looked incredibly calm and she didn’t say anything much during the search. Everyone went to the coordinates as fast as they could. When they reached the location, all they could see was a vast expanse of white snow. The rescue team immediately started digging up the snow but they only found Michael’s phone.
The phone was still operating well. When they unlocked it, they saw that he had a dozen missed calls.
Holding the phone, Sophia stared at the dog picture on the lockscreen blankly. Under the goggles, tears were rolling down her cheeks.
They continued digging the snow but there was nothing nearby. The snow was heavy last night and one night had passed. If anything bad happened to them, all the evidence would have been buried under the snow and no one, alive or dead, would be seen.
A wave of despair and sadness filled the crowd. Stanley patted Sophia’s shoulder and comforted her. “Don’t worry, he’ll be fine. My uncle often did such extreme survival training when he was in the army. Situations like these won’t defeat him! Just relax.”
Sophia didn’t reply to him. She put Michael’s phone into her pocket and continued walking in silence. After a while, they found Alice’s phone.
Alice’s phone was also working. Sophia took over Alice’s phone and saw her wallpaper, which turned out to be a photo of her and Michael!
Looking at the photo, Sophia felt her heart sink but she remained silent.
Michael was smiling handsomely in the picture while Alice was secretly glancing in his direction. Her gentle smile was filled with great joy and there was a bright light in her eyes that seemed to stem from her soul, the kind of light that only appeared when you were looking at a loved one.
Alice’s phone was locked and it required facial identification and fingerprints to unlock it, so Sophia could only look at her lockscreen where there were a number of missed calls.
Michael’s number was among the missed calls and Alice had saved his number as ‘My love’.
