Chapter 1787

As soon as she finished speaking, something in the blanket began to squirm, and it was definitelynot Rose’s hand. Rose’s expression subtly changed, holding her golden retriever puppy a bit tighter

“Mmm woof woof” A sound of discontent came from the blanket

Morrison’s expression changed, his eyes suddenly darkening, as cold as ice. Grabbing the blanket,he flung it open with force.

“Ah Rose gasped Momson’s strength was too much, even the blanket covering her was flung offShe kept her eyes shut, the golden retriever puppy broke free from her arms breathing in fresh air,happily spinning around the bed.

Morrison was taken aback when he spotted the creature that had suddenly appeared Regaining hissenses, he stood there watching the little thing, his face so gloomy as if a storm was approachingc2

He must be crazy For such a small creature, he had actually suspected Rose cheated on him

After a brief moment of excitement, little Moon noticed the third person in the room. It immediatelystood on the bed, baring its teeth at Momson and barked incessantly

It looked extremely aggressive”

Morrison took a deep breath, reached out and picked it up by its scruff

“Woof woof woof

“Mmm mmm

“Woof woof woof

At first. Moon was still quite “aggressive“, but after struggling for a while with no results, it could onlywhimper pitifully at Rose.

Rose sat up from the bed. “You let it go She had thought that Moon would be happy with her, butwho would have thought that in less than two days, its life would be in

danger

Momson stared at her coldly. “You don’t like to sleep with people, but you like to sleep withanimals?”

Rose’s face gradually cooled. ‘Yes, I indeed prefer to sleep with animals”

“I didn’t know you had this peculiar preference” He said, holding the golden retriever, and directlythrew it out of the bedroom

The puppy yelped darting to one side

Rose quickly got off the bed to check on it, but the door was closed heavily. Morrison, filled withanger, grabbed Rose’s wrist

She struggled. “Let me go

Morrison held her tight, preventing her from flailing. “Are you sure you want to keep fussing over ananimal with me?”

At his words. Rose looked up, her eyes red, making Morrison pause

“An animal” She was furious Moon’s presence made her feel less lonely for the first time in thenearly hundred days since she arrived here.

He just suddenly came back today, yet he wanted to immediately deny the significance of Moonisexistence, on what grounds?

Taking a deep breath, she suppressed the emotions welling up. She looked straight at Monson, andsaid calmly, “Morrison, I just brought Moon home yesterday. Do you know how I felt when I walkedin the door today?”

Roses eyes trembled, the defiance in her eyes didn’t include tears, but her eyes were burning m’lopen the door, and it pounces on me, jumping and barking. Do you know

how happy I was?”

She abruptly pulled back her hand looked at Morrison, and gave a bitter, sarcastic laugh. It rushedto greet me when I came home, making me feel that this house is finally not just occupied by mealone.”

Her reddened eyes made Morrison stop in his tracks.

You said im causing a fuss over an animal with you? Morrison, ask yourself, do you have any rightto compare yourself with it?”

Momson’s eyes suddenly narrowed, ‘Rose

I’m sorry Morrison’s gloomy voice was interrupted by Rose’s clear voice I admit I was wrong to saythat, and I am sorry I’m not in a good mood right now, but I don’t want to get angry Momson, you’reright, this is indeed your home too, you can come and go whenever you like But tonight, could youplease go out, at least, not appear in this

foom

Morrison squinted at her in silence, but she opened the door and walked out ahead of him. “Moon?Moon! Her calling voice echoed in the hallway, worned yet gentle

Rose finally found the golden retriever in the dog house on the downstairs balcony, whimperingpitifully: Her face was full of heartache, as she bent down and held it in her arms Are you feelingunwell anywhere, hmm?”

She checked Moon while asking softly Moon whimpered lightly and buried its head in her arms.Rose stroked its head, Tm sorry”

She held it up and stood up By the time she walked to the living room, Mornson had alreadydressed neatly and came down from upstairs. Her eyes trembled, and the

stood in place

Morrison didn’t hesitate and walked straight out the doo! The door closed heavily, the echo seemedto last for a long time. It made the entire house seem even emptier

She scratched the golden retriever’s head and managed a bitter smile. “In the past, I always hopedhe would come back at any moment. Today, when he finally came back, i ended up driving himaway in anger

Woof

“I guess this time he probably wont come back again

Rose smiled softly and walked upstairs with the dog

Unless there were important meetings. Rose wouldn’t force herself to get up early She went to bedlate after the right’s commotion. She was sleeping soundly but was awakened by Moons incessantbarking

Reluctantly getting up from the bed and going downstairs, she found Moon next to the coffee table,its neck, raised, barking happily at the man in the center of the living room That tall figure, evenwithout seeing his face, she knew who it was

She was surprised to see Morrison

Little Moon scampered toward her with its four small paws. Perhaps feeling there was support, itsbarking seemed to grow louder

Morrison turned around, his expression Well, Rose had never seen him looking pleased around her

He was wearing a gray home outfit, his hair slightly disheveled. At the moment, he held atoothbrush missing some bristles in one hand and a slipper in the other He looked at her coldly. Isthis what you call expired?”

Rose bit her lip. I gave it to Moon because it was past its due date

“Humph Momson snorted slowly closing the distance between them. It just arrived in this house twodays ago, and the things are in such a state. Obviously, it diderit happen just today Rose, dont youthink the timing of their expiration is quite coincidental?

His approach made Rose instinctively feel threatened and she took a few steps back. Morrison’sgaze flicked over her shoulder then he reached out and pulled her into his arms, without a hint ofgentleness. She held her breath her hands braced against his firm chest her heart pounding

He used some force. The moment Rose fell into his arms, he smelled a faint breeze carried a subtlefragrance

Their bodies were close close enough for him to feel her mounded belly against his lower abdomenHis eyes darkened slightly. You seem particularly upset with me. How deep is your resentment thatyou’d give all my stuff to a dog?

Rose pushed against his chest, trying to create some distance between them, but he was asimmovable as a mock

The scent of him was familiar – it was the shampoo and body wash she usually used She hadthrown away everything of his that the could see and reach. He used her stuff to shower last night

This closeness made her heart flutter. She had no idea how to respond to his question

She did resent him so much that she threw away all his stuff Why should his belongings bother herand affect her mood when he was never coming back

“You’re never around, so instead of letting them go to waste, why not put them to good use. At leastMoon doesn’t mind ‘

She intended to sound defiant, but there was a trace of hurt in her voice

Morrison looked at her Her hands pale and slender against his chest, were very noticeable.

“It seems you do hate me

Rose’s hands slightly tightened, and her eyelashes fluttered. She couldn’t deny it. Just a while agoshe had vented her feelings, and now, even if she wanted to deny it for the

sake of her pride she couldn’t

Her hands on his chest relaxed, and her body seemed to naturally lean into him. His arm aroundher waist tightened a fraction, and he looked down at her hands, a strange

thought crossing his mind.

The memory of her underneath him, soft and entwined with him, felt so fresh Somethinguncontrollable surged within him, making his body tense slightly

Rose seemed to sense something She blushed and forcefully pushed him away, stepping back andbumping into something She turned and saw the staircase handrail

Her eyes flicked, and she understood why Morrison had suddenly pulled her into his arms Suddenly,there was a warmth in her heart, reigniting the once–cooling feelings for Momson

She looked up at him, “Why are you still here?”

Momson silently took back his hands. Upon hearing her words, he stared at her with dark gazesand asked, “Is there something wrong with me being here?”

Rose tucked a stray hair behind her ear and tilted her head. “Didn’t you leave last night?”

Heh, my status in this house is even lower than a dog’s Why should I willingly leave? Momsonsneered.

Woof woot woot Perhaps sensing Momson’s hostility, little Moon started barking loudly at him

Morrisons expression darkened, and as he glanced over, little Moon immediately whined and hidbehind Rose its cowardice was on full display

But to Rose it looked incredibly cute and amusing She couldn’t help but laugh, and bent down to rubits chin “You little scaredy–cat.

“Woof wool woo! It seemed to be protesting, then seemed to be enjoying the petting

As for what Morrison had just said whether it was true or not she didn’t care. Even if it wasnt shecouldn’t guess what his real reason was.

However, seeing her smile Morrison felt a stab of irritation. His gaze landed on the golden retriever,his eyes cold.

“What do you want for breakfast? || get it ready” Rose suddenly asked, and the awkwardnessbetween them was easily dissolved by the presence of little Moon

Momson glanced at her and replied indifferently. Whatever before heading upstairs. He was as aloofas ever

Woof woof woof

Seeing Momson leave little Moons courage returned, and it barked at his retreating figure.

Momson paused then turned and glared at it with a furrowed brow

Rose was already used to his cold attitude and had turned to head towards the kitchen. When sheheard little Moon bark, she

Little Moon immediately fun and ran to Rose, cucling around her as it followed her

“What do you want for breakfast, Moon? How about some bacon?”

Woof wool

“That settles if then

Roses cheerful voice faded as she entered the dining room

Morrison stood there for a moment, his face cold, before heading.

He had only asked Zach to prepare clothes for him, not todeties Not being able to brush mua teethfor a night was already hea ini. After goin

into the bedroom

He rummaged through the drawer, and finally found Huses spare fouthbrush. After freshening upand changing, he vent downstars, she through the art

Little Moon was whining and barking, clearly driven mad by the smell

“Okay okay, you’ll get your food soon

Roses voice came through, filled with indulgence and helplessness. When she came out, shehappersed i

toward the patio, sha

casually said to him, “Breakfast is ready. You can go ahead and eat

Momson glanced at the plate in her hands, frowned slightly, then made his way to the dinning room.

Rose placed a plate piled with strips of bacon on the patio, and her golden retriever immediatelytrotted over

Returning to the dining room, she saw Morrison still standing there. She walked over and sat downat one end of the table, questioning him with a puzzled expression, ‘Aren’t you eating?”

Momson’s gaze followed her as she sat down, his eyebrows furrowed, “Rose”

Rose picked up her knife and fork and began to eat the sandwich in front of her, “What’s up?”

“Was the plate you were holding just now mine?”

Hearing this, Rose was taken aback. She looked up at the pure white plate across from her andpursed her lips.

Her reaction only further confirmed Morrisons suspicions Why did he say that? Because from themoment he returned to this place, in every aspect and every little detail, he had felt a growing senseof rejection As if there was a deliberate attempt to erase him completely from this place it was afeeling that had become increasingly palpable over the past few hours.
