Chapter 189
UGGGGHHHH!!Christina suddenly threw up as her olfactory system couldn't stand the smell of the dog feces.She quickly got to her feet and rushed to the restroom to take care of the mess.The more Christina thought about what had just happened to her, the more her stomach grew irritated, and she nearly vomited her intestines.Roderick was satisfied to hear her vomiting continuously as he sat in the sitting room. A wicked smile appeared on his face as he was glad to teach the dumb motherfucker some lessons.He turned to Kate and pleaded, as his secretary had nearly spent the whole day vomiting in the restroom."Please, forgive me for this mess, Miss Bolton."However, Kate waved her hand nonchalantly. "It's no trouble at all, Mr. Holmes. After all, she was the one who made the bet. She had to face the consequences of her actions."Very good.This sounded pleasing to Roderick's ears, as Kate was able to reason as he had expected.Some moments later, Christina returned from the restroom,

The next moment, the door was wide open, and Kate and Roderick were surprised to see Christina step inside.She looked quite troubled and worried, her gaze fixed on the ground.The sitting room fell silent as she entered. The two were puzzled as to why she had come. This left them speechless.And especially, how did she find Roderick's home?Christina had her arms folded across her chest, embarrassment eating away at her as she stood there before Kate asked, "Christie, don't tell me you were trailing behind me since I left home?"Although Christina wasn't happy to be in this position at the moment, she shrugged off her embarrassment and spoke up."That's right, Miss Bolton. I followed you after I learned that you were coming to Mr. Holmes' place."Roderick's eyes lit up slightly. He gently rubbed his ears, probably thinking he was hearing things.He was surprised that the pompous Christina had just addressed him respectfully. For what reason?What could have made her so humble at this

Roderick was bewildered by the sudden attack of the angry-looking dog toward them, but he didn't flinch. Meanwhile, Kate's heart skipped a beat, and she closed her eyes tightly in shock and fear of what her fate might be in the next moment.WHOOOF! WHOOOF! The dog let out his anger as he jumped on them, causing the mountain of boxes in Kate's hands to crash to the floor and the contents to scatter around.This nearly made her pass out as the whole world seemed to pause before her eyes.Just then, she began to hear the dog panting softly. WUHHH! WUHHH!Kate was too afraid to open her eyes and see the damage the dog might have caused—not until she heard Roderick's voice calming the dog. "Ruk! Calma! Calma!"Kate slowly opened her tightly shut eyes and was surprised to see Roderick stroking the side of the dog's neck.The lady's eyes opened wide in disappointment as she asked Roderick with a frowning face, "Mr. Holmes, was this the surprise you had for me, or was this just an accident?"

Roderick's face frowned with a bit of worry as he received the message. The situation, which continued to keep him in a tight corner, became more difficult for him to understand.At first, they were unable to find a vacant apartment. In the end, they secured a place, but it was opposite Old Santos's new home.Roderick wondered how he was going to explain things to Mrs. Dalton if she accidentally found them together.Kate Bolton is a prominent figure. Being seen with someone of such high status would lead to endless questions from Mrs. Dalton.This left Roderick with another round of worry.He thought he needed to be careful and watchful not to let Mrs. Dalton see him with Kate.In the end, he felt that saying it was easy—but what if the unexpected happened? How would he handle it?While he was pondering this, he received a new text from Kate."Mr. Holmes, I just arrived in front of an apartment down the street, and my instinct says, 'That's where you live.' Can you please open the doo

Roderick felt his forehead instantly covered with sweat as soon as he saw the message.There was no doubt that Kate had a great interest in Roderick. Given that, no matter what Roderick did to her, she wouldn’t even get angry. Instead, she would find a way to settle the matter brilliantly.Roderick had promised to come and pick her up at the junction, but she hadn’t seen a light from him after a couple of minutes. Wasn’t she supposed to get angry about it? With the thought that Roderick didn’t value her.But not Kate. She had different thoughts about the matter instead.She felt she was the one at fault for showing up at Roderick’s place unannounced. Given that, he would have to hurry quickly to tidy his home to receive her.Kate was the type who believed strongly in her instinct. Then, she thought of putting her instinct to use and followed it to find Roderick’s place.To her, it was just a form of adventure. She had relied on her instinct to locate places in the past, although not e
Chapter 184
Roderick's brows lit up instantly, as he had never expected the lady to pay so much attention to Tony's appearance.Naturally, Tony had such a frightening and overbearing gaze. This was because his being had been intensely shaped by the warfront lifestyle.Tony is a lieutenant who has fought in several deadly wars and come out alive. It wasn't surprising that he carried such a scary gaze.It was the result of the blood and death he had confronted on the war front line. He was now at the point where he didn't fear death, but death feared him.Imagine what the gaze of such a person would look like?Roderick hadn't said anything when the lady's voice came through again. "You haven't said anything, Roderick. Don't you think staying around such a friend is quite dangerous?"Then, he waved his hands in the air as he understood the lady's concern. "I understand your concern, Mrs. Dalton. But Tony's not a dangerous person. His looks might be scary, but he has a good heart."These are some of
