Chapter 932 932: Adorable Dog



Joseph went to Uncle Steven's house after finishing his work.

The locust tree flourished, where many elders played chess and drank coffee. The neighbors also got to know Joseph since he went there every day. They started to compliment Joseph after he got out of the car with fruits and many other foods in his hands.

They even asked Joseph to play chess with them, but Joseph politely declined with a smile and then walked into the house.

When he left, the elders began to discuss.

"Look at him. He is a rich and successful businessman but has always remained humble and easygoing. It seems Irish have found a good husband," said an old lady. 

"Yes, you are right. I heard that their wedding is luxurious."

"But I heard that Joseph is Irish's sister's husband before," said an old man abruptly.

"I also heard the news. But it is said that they were not really married," replied the old lady. 

"What? Are you serious? Did they deceive everyone?"

"Yes, they have cleared the air. It sounds like a story, but it happened."

Those elders kept chatting under the trees. Time went by, and the elders talked in a jovial mood.

Steven's house was in a traditional architectural style, and the room was cool inside. The smell of the meal floated in the air while the cicadas were singing in the trees.

Steven took back a stray dog several days ago, and he named the dog Poppy. This little creature looked dirty, and its feet were bleeding. Obviously, it was hurt by someone consciously. Steven was taking a walk on the day he found the dog, and he heard from the security men who told him a man kicked the dog out of a car and then drove the car away. Poppy waited for his owner all day and didn't realize he was abandoned.

It was a lovely dog, although it was a cross between a collie and a golden retriever. And its owner must be aware of this, so he decided to abandon it. After that, Steven began to take food to this dog for some time, although Poppy refused to eat anything initially. But Steven would stay there, accompany Poppy for some time, and apply ointment for its wound. Finally, Poppy recovered, and Steven took him back.

Perhaps, Poppy was moved by Steven, and he didn't resist. Steven took Poppy to a pet clinic and made a complete inspection for it to ensure its health. The dog's hair became shiny and thicker under Steven's careful breeding. Though it didn't have pure blood lineage, Poppy did become more beautiful. Steven always took him out when taking a walk, while Poppy also enjoyed the moment with Steven. He would follow behind Steven and never run around.

Later, Irish said, "Little Poppy, let's discuss it. I don't give you a traction rope. It is hot, but you have to be quiet. Do not run and bark."

As a result, Poppy really did not run around and bark. And it followed everywhere Irish went. So Irish did not need to worry.

Poppy also got along with Joseph because he brought fresh or cooked bones and cans every time he came. So as soon as Joseph entered the yard, the first to meet him was Poppy, jumping happily.

Joseph smiled to give it delicious food, and little Poppy was happy too. 

There was laughter in the living room, which was rare.

Irish saw Poppy run out. Across the curtain, she looked out, smiling at Joseph, beckoning, "Honey, come in."

Joseph saw the situation as a little strange. These days, because of Jay and Lilith, everyone is depressed. And Steven and Mary signed every day. What was the matter today?

He entered the room, and Poppy, with his steaming bones, followed him into the living room and began to eat them beside Steven's foot.

"Don't buy anymore, Joseph. Everything at home is about to pile up." Mary's mood was also excellent.

Joseph could feel the atmosphere at home was completely different, laughing, "Irish said last night she wants to eat vegetables, so today I dropped by the supermarket."

Mary smiled and said, "Hey, no, you're so good, and you're buying it."

Irish's heart was warm, sitting with Joseph. 

Joseph thought that there must be a good thing, or how Irish was in such a good mood to call him honey that day? Usually, she called him "Joseph."

"Joseph, drink with me later." Steven invited, "I specially bought two bottles of Ox today."

Joseph did not answer, and Irish inverted, "Uncle, he still has to drive."

"He can't, but you can," said Steven.

Irish picked her eyebrows up, "Then I can accompany you to drink."

Joseph turned his face and looked at her as if smiling.

Irish sticks to him.

"Tonight, you drive, and I drink with my uncle." Joseph looked at her with a flattering face and gave "orders" without mercy.

Irish immediately changed her face, got up, "Hmm." At the end of the speech, she went to the kitchen to help Mary.

Joseph was helpless.

He could see that he was generous in any way, as long as he agreed with her, but even if he didn't, he became the bad guy in her mouth. 

"Uncle, have you heard from Jay?" Those men he sent were sent away by Jay, and today he saw Steven was a bit joyful. It was probably related to Jay.

Steven said, "Yes, he called us. They're all safe."

"Have they caught the man?"

"No, Lilith seemed to be unconscious and had been sent to the hospital, but Jay told us nothing serious." Steven got up to set the table, and Joseph came forward to help.

Steven continued, "Human security is the most important, Joseph, you do not know that during this period of time, I can't eat and sleep well, and I'm afraid about Jay's situation. Although they didn't catch the guy, they are safe and sound."

Joseph could understand.

Mary entered the room and cut in. "What are you talking about? Jay is a lucky star, and the lucky man had his own nature."

"Well, you're right." Steven didn't quarrel with her, laughing.

****

At almost eleven o'clock, Joseph and Irish just came out of Steven's house.

Steven with Poppy went out to send them away, and Irish asked Poppy before she left, "Do you want to go with me?"

Poppy looked at the car and grunted twice.

"I think it has a psychological shadow." Irish smiled.

The door was not closed, and Joseph let Uncle hurry back. Uncle told them to pay attention to safety on the road and turned around to return home with Poppy, but it jumped on the car.

Steven laughed and said, "All right."

Joseph leaned over with a smile and closed the door. "Okay, let it go and play."

"It's very naughty now. What if it bites the furniture?" Steven knew that the furniture Joseph's was worth a fortune.

Irish leaned over and smiled, and said, "It's all right. My husband is generous."
