Walk the <i>dog</i>?
Tony quickly realized what Ethan meant.
He figured Ethan just didn’t want Dawn overthinking, so he gave her something to do.
After Tony left, Ethan’s eyes went back to theputer screen. Lines of code shed nonstop.
Not long after, his eyes narrowed.
He had guessed Sydney was behind this from the start. But he hadn’t expected a little reporter like her to have connections in so many countries. That made him wonder if someone else was backing her.
Meanwhile, after Ethan left, Dawn took a shower. When she came out and dried her hair, she had just picked up her phone when Tony’s voice called from downstairs. <fn3227> Find the newest release on find?novel</fn3227>
“Ms. Porter,e down quick!”
Dawn answered, got dressed, and went down.
At the door, she found Tony holding a Doberman at arm’s length. “Boss asked me to bring this

Tony honestly didn’t get it.
<i>Ms. </i><i>Porter </i><i>is </i><i>delicate </i><i>and </i><i>beautiful</i><i>–</i><i>how </i><i>could </i><i>Boss </i><i>give </i><i>her </i><i>such </i><i>a </i><i>huge </i><i>dog</i><i>? </i>
Dawn blinked, then looked right at the Doberman. When she tilted her head, the dog tilted his
too.
She suddenlyughed. “What’s his name?”
“Uh…

Tony saw she wasn’t afraid, so he answered, “Sunny.”
“Sunny,” Dawn repeated the name softly as she took the leash from his hand. “That’s a gentle

name. Did Ethan name you?”
s
She reached out and patted Sunny’s head. The big, fierce–looking dog closed his eyes like he was enjoying it.
Tony was stunned.
“Ms. Porter, you’re really not scared?”
“I’m fine.” Dawn smiled, then suddenly thought of her childhood.
Back then, Ethan had once told the family dog to scare her. Later, <i>to </i>help her get over it, he had made her sleep with their Labrador until she wasn’t afraid anymore.
Animals were just like people. If they felt kindness, they’d ept youpletely.
From then on, Dawn was hardly afraid of any animals.
“Sunny?” She crouched down. The Doberman was so tall that when he lowered his head, he was almost taller than her. She smiled brighter. “Are you moving into our house now?”
“Woof!”
That sounded like a yes.
Her mood lifted right away. She stood and said to Tony, “Leave him with me. But I bet you didn’t bring dog food or a bed. I’ll call … ”
“They’re ready!”
Tony panicked the second she mentioned making a call.
A call meant using her phone.
And if she saw the news online right now, all of Ethan’s effort would go to waste. Ethan would never forgive him.
Tony’s scalp went numb. He quickly said, “Ms. Porter, don’t worry, I’ve got everything arranged. Someone will deliver it soon. Just take him out for a walk now … right now!”
As he spoke, he stepped aside and kept shooting Sunny meaningful looks.
<i>Hold </i><i>her </i><i>attention</i>, <i>buddy</i><i>. </i><i>Don’t </i><i>screw </i><i>this </i><i>up</i>, or <i>Boss </i><i>will </i><i>kill </i><i>us </i><i>both</i><i>! </i>
Sunny gave him a proud nce and trotted past.

Tony shut his mouth.
He wiped his sweat that wasn’t there and hurried out.

Before heading back to the office, he still had to stop at the pet store–he hadn’t prepared any of the stuff Dawn just mentioned.
Dawn walked a long way before she realized she had forgotten her phone. Otherwise, she could’ve sent Ethan a few pictures.
When they reached theke, Sunny pulled ahead, eager to go.
She held his leash and asked, “Where’d youe from?”
Sunny was busy chasing a bug and ignored her.
Dawn kept talking to herself. “Don’t tell me you grew up in a pet shop. More likely, you came from overseas, right? A big dog like you wouldn’t be allowed in many ces here.”
That’s <i>almost impossible</i>.
<i>And </i><i>since </i><i>a </i><i>lot </i><i>of </i><i>ces </i><i>here </i><i>ban </i><irge </i><i>dogs</i><i>, </i><i>the </i><i>chances </i><i>are </i><i>highest </i><i>that </i><i>it </i><i>came </i><i>from </i><i>overseas</i>.
Then she thought of something and grinned wickedly. She rubbed Sunny’s head and whispered, “Tell me honestly, has Ethan ever brought you to meet other girls?”
Of course, Sunny couldn’t answer. But just then, a woman’s uncertain voice came from nearby. “Are you Dawn?”
Dawn turned and saw a woman about 40 studying her. She smiled politely. “Yes, I’m Dawn. And you are?”
“Oh, it is you.”
The woman’s expression changed at once, her eyes filled with open disdain.
“Didn’t think you’d be living in the same neighborhood as us. Who are you staying with? Don’t tell me your uncle’s keeping you here in secret?”
She sneered, her voice sharp. “You’re a grown woman. Don’t you think it’s time you lived on your own? Your uncle’s about to get married. Why are you still clinging to him? Do you have no shame at all?<b>” </b>
