Chapter 680


“Really? Bring it over here so I can touch it.” Rayna, who was sitting on the couch, cracked a smile when she heard that.

Robin glanced at Curtis as he placed the seemingly sedated Furry in Rayna's hands. “The girl's hand was injured. It seemed this animal scratched her.”

“Injured? Is it a serious injury?” Rayna raised her head to look in the direction of Robin and Curtis.

“It's not serious. I gave her two thousand. It should be enough.” As Robin spoke, he opened his wallet and showed Curtis that it was empty.

“It's all right. You can get a reimbursement from your boss.” Although Rayna couldn't see Robin's expression, she could guess how he looked from his aggrieved tone.

Rayna stroked Furry's fluffy fan-shaped ears before touching its nose and mouth, noticing that it was indeed tiny.

“What's wrong with it? Why is it sticking its tongue out?” Rayna felt the creature's tongue as she fumbled around and got worried.

Curtis cast Furry a glance before looking at Robin.

Robin explained with a sigh, “When the girl came out from the bathroom, I noticed a syringe on the ground. She must have sedated it. After all, this creature is wild, and it injured her. It should be fine since it's only anesthetics.” He didn't want Rayna or Curtis to blame a young girl for this matter.

“Are you sure?” Rayna didn't quite believe it.

“Yes, I knew someone who used to run a veterinary clinic. I've seen him sedate cats undergoing sterilization. They were all sticking their tongues out like this after being injected with anesthetics. The girl is still young, and she seems to be around nineteen years old. She has already done an incredible job bathing this unknown creature.”

Robin defended the young girl and glanced at Curtis from time to time from the corner of his eye. “Mr. Faymon, if there isn't anything else, can I head back to sleep?”

There was still plenty of time before dawn. Robin was speechless because he had been woken up in the middle of the night to handle this matter.

Nonetheless, he didn't dare express his annoyance.

“Go ahead.” Curtis nodded in approval.

After Robin left, Rayna retorted petulantly, “As expected of your subordinate. He said the exact same thing as you!”

“What did he say?” Curtis grabbed a bottle of mineral water from the coffee table and drank from it, unperturbed by Rayna's observation.

“He just said it's a wild and unknown creature! That's also what you said!” Rayna placed Furry on the couch. She then fumbled around for a big towel that was on the couch's armrest to cover its body, for fear it would get cold.



“It has thick fur. You don't have to cover it.” Curtis turned around and frowned when he saw Rayna carefully tucking Furry under a towel.

He was quite taken aback by the way Rayna was treating this wild animal as if it were a child.

“There's no fur on its stomach. It might catch a cold right after a shower.” Rayna remembered that there was not much fur on the creature's stomach when she was touching it just now.

After tucking Furry in, Rayna prepared to go back to bed. However, Curtis grabbed her hand the moment she stood up and brought her to the bathroom. “Wash your hands before you sleep.”

Riegel washed her hands cooperatively and didn't say a word until the two returned to bed. Only then did she ask tentatively, “Shall we check what breed it is?”

“Do you want to keep it? What if it's a species that can't be kept as a pet?” Curtis had already seen through Rayna's intention.

“There's no need to consider this possibility yet. Let's check what breed it is first. It's fate that we met it,” Rayna replied as she nuzzled Curtis' cheek.

“It's too early to jump to conclusions.” Curtis, on the other hand, felt that their encounter with Furry was strange. Something is amiss. Also, the windows of the neighboring room should be closed. How did it escape? How did it even enter the room in the first place? All these questions are left unsolved.

However, he could tell Rayna took a liking to Furry, so he didn't want to spoil her mood. After all, she smiled more that day compared to any other day recently. Apart from her mood, she was also obviously in better shape.

Curtis' gaze landed on Furry, who was sleeping soundly on the couch, as he pondered. Although he wasn't sure where Furry came from, it appeared harmless to Rayna for the time being.

After experiencing a series of events in the first half of the night, Rayna was so tuckered out that she fell into a deep slumber and slept all the way until ten in the morning.

When she woke up, she realized Curtis wasn't in bed. However, the warmth on his side of the bed was still present. That indicated he had only gotten out of bed moments before she woke up.

She got up from bed and blinked, noticing that her vision had somewhat become clearer.

Raising her hand, she waved it in front of her eyes. At that moment, she was able to roughly make out what was once a blurry silhouette.

Curtis' voice could be heard outside the bedroom.
