(Extra for 1200+ monthly votes) “Beautiful Lady will get depressed if she leaves me now, and I can’t abandon her, but not keeping the promise I made to my daughter-in-law doesn’t feel right either. I plan to first improve Beautiful Lady’s mood, and after she feels better, see if I can send her back or find someone else to adopt her.”

Actually, he really wanted to adopt Beautiful Lady, but he also knew that being in the Dog Lord Circle isn’t good for her mood.

How can one satisfy both worlds without disappointing my daughter-in-law or Beautiful Lady?

“Is that all you have to say?” Kiara crossed her arms and looked with a cool gaze at the anxious Camden Yuno, “From beginning to end, you’ve portrayed me as a completely undemocratic and arbitrary villain. Did you even ask for my consent when you did this?”

“So, my love, if I ask for your consent now, can we keep her?” he looked at Kiara with hope.

Of course not! Kiara clicked her tongue twice and cleared her throat. “Putting my attitude aside, just talking about your sneaky behavior behind my back, it’s very detrimental to family unity and stability, and it’s something people don’t like.”

Mario Yuno felt deflated like a punctured balloon; he knew from the get-go that she wouldn’t agree just by the look in her knees.

Beautiful Lady, well-fed and quenched, sauntered over to him, rubbing against his leg as if to cheer him up, and Mario Yuno stroked her head in return.

“Beautiful Lady has made many contributions, and although sometimes the authorities don’t reward her, she is really outstanding. I can’t bear to see a meritorious service dog end up homeless after retirement.”

Kiara felt somewhat displeased inside. Was he trying to force her to accept this?

“If you really don’t like it, I won’t bring her home, but can she stay here?” he pleaded.

The more he asked, the angrier Kiara became.

“Fine! You are so sentimental, and you can’t forget your dog! I am just a terrible person, a super villain!”

Mario Yuno couldn’t understand why she was even angrier; he had done everything he could to lower his stance. Wasn’t that enough?

“What do you actually want? How can I make you not angry? Just tell me, okay?”

He truly couldn’t fathom Kiara’s thoughts; he didn’t want to upset her, but it seemed the more cautious he was, the angrier she got.

Her ears heard his helpless tone as impatience, a sure sign of declaring war.

What was merely a tiny spark became a blaze fueled by his “restraint.”

The difference in thought between a man and a woman can easily lead to conflict. His intention was to calm her down, but his tone instead exacerbated Kiara’s anger.

Just as a war between the two seemed imminent, Mario Yuno’s phone rang.

“Got it, I’ll be right back.”

What kind of work issue was this? Kiara made a punching gesture behind his back as he talked on the phone.

How she wished she could punch him!

“Kiara, I’m going to be busy for a few days,” he said, hanging up the phone with a stern expression.

“Understood, go ahead.” Whatever domestic conflicts they had would have to be set aside for now in the face of his work, which was a big deal.

Even if Kiara felt a touch of emotion, she had to restrain herself.

“In the next few days, try not to go out if you can. If you need to go to school, I’ll arrange someone to pick you up–don’t drive yourself. You must get back home before dark.”

“What happened?” Kiara perceived from his tone that it seemed like a serious issue.

“That man escaped prison–that one you’ve studied before with the SH Personality.”

To catch that man, Camden had also been called back for external support.

“What?!” Kiara was taken aback.

“He could even escape from high-security; what in the world is happening?”

“Not sure how he escaped exactly, but just make sure you don’t go out after dark. He’s likely aware he’s a fugitive and won’t get far. He might try to exact revenge; he might remember you from when you were part of the research team that studied him.”

Even though the likelihood of an encounter in the city was slim, Mario Yuno still reiterated his warning to Kiara multiple times.

The next few days would definitely involve overtime work, and he might not even be able to come home to sleep. When an emergency like this occurred, Mario Yuno and his colleagues would work non-stop.

There’s no peace in this life, as it’s often those most beloved, protecting peace from unseen places, who push themselves to their limits.

“I get it, go ahead without worries,” she said.

“And about Beautiful Lady–” Mario Yuno looked worriedly at his dog.

“Don’t worry, it won’t starve. I’ll come over on time to feed it. You still dream of keeping this from me? When you’re busy, you’re like a spinning top and have no time to look after it. In the end, it still depends on me…”

She really felt aggrieved playing the villain, gaining a bad reputation for nothing, yet she still had to do the good deeds that only a real Samaritan would do!

“Daughter-in-law! You’re the best!” Mario Yuno said, moved.

“Get lost, kid, I’m not a good person. I’m the big villain! Go ahead without worries, I’ve got both this house and the dog now,” she retorted.

Mario Yuno, having received Kiara’s approval, was overjoyed. All his thousand words of gratitude condensed into a kiss on her forehead.

“Wait for me to come back!”

After saying this, he walked out, only to turn back after a couple of steps.

Pointing at Beautiful Lady, he said seriously, “Beautiful Lady, this is my daughter-in-law. While I’m not home, she is your Mother, and you must be obedient, understand? You can’t refuse to eat.”

Kiara thought he was being redundant, but to her surprise, the dog she didn’t particularly like whined mournfully as if in protest.

That’s right, she hadn’t heard wrong. Kiara was sure she saw grievance in the eyes of the large dog.

So much for animals not being able to become spirits! This one was too smart!

“Alright, when I come back, I’ll give you a special meal with ribs, but you have to take good care of my daughter-in-law, got it?”

Seeing Beautiful Lady bury her head in her paws, Mario Yuno had to raise his voice.

“That’s an order!”

“Woof!” The dog perked up instantly.

True to its species, it was indeed well-trained.

Kiara watched Mario Yuno rush off, leaving her and the dog to stare at each other in the house. Keen to test just how magical this legendary dog really was, she picked a frankfurter from the bag of food Mario Yuno had bought, peeled it, and threw it out.

“Fetch.”

But Beautiful Lady turned around slowly, only leaving his back to her.

My… God!

What kind of dog is this!

Kiara pointed at its nose, “Down!”

…Was that scorn in its eyes?

“Paw, shake a paw!”

…The disdain of a king!

Feeling the entire range of the creature’s non-compliance, Kiara walked away.

“Not cute at all. Fine, you can stay here. I’ll come over every day to change your water and bring you food. Of course, it’s okay if you refuse to eat too; frankly, I’d have less to worry about if you starved.”

With that, she left, clutching her little purse elegantly.

This “operation to catch him betraying the family” turned out to be all bark and no bite. Kiara had guessed the beginning but not the end. On her way back, when her car was halfway home, she spotted a stray dog with an injured leg struggling to walk along the roadside.

It must have been hit by a car.

That annoying mutt all alone in the house, it isn’t going to get into trouble, right?

They say dogs are well-trained, but given how dumb that guy looked, what if it bites the electric wires, and the next time I bring over food, I find it lying on its back, legs in the air, foaming at the mouth?

Kiara felt uneasy just thinking about it, so she turned on the radio to distract herself, only to hear the announcer on the radio say.
