Chapter 1035 - 1038: Can You Handle It?

A big hand grabbed the small dog’s ears turned around and walked away, "Let’s go downstairs to eat."

Melody Thorne: "...Be careful, you’ll hurt her like that!"

Jared Quinn looked up and said, "It won’t hurt, it’s a male."

"It’ll hurt even if it’s a male." Melody Thorne immediately reached out to hold it in her arms, her small hands rubbing its ears.

The little one stayed quietly in Melody Thorne’s arms, its head nudging against her chest, raising its head with a bit of arrogance.

As if challenging a certain man.

Jared Quinn squinted slightly, "If you dare to nuzzle her again, I’ll throw you out and stomp you into dog meat!"

"Woof woof!" The little one immediately shrank into Melody Thorne’s embrace.

"Don’t be scared, don’t be scared, rest assured you won’t be turned into dog meat." Melody Thorne immediately held the little one tightly, comforting it.

"Yes, don’t be afraid, with my mommy here, my dad won’t dare throw you out," Timmy also chimed in from the side.

Jared Quinn: "..."

You’ll be thrown out and turned into dog meat sooner or later.

After eating, Melody Thorne continued to play and feed the dog.

"Sis-in-law, this new pet of yours is not bad," Leon Rivers praised.

"Of course, my disciple sent it," Melody Thorne said proudly.

"The Hawthorne Family has all been arrested," Jared Quinn closed the newspaper in his hand. Right now, the biggest news in Ardenia is the Hawthorne Family all being captured, their former glory has long since faded!

"The Hawthorne Family winding up like this was inevitable," Leon Rivers said, "Even if those two brothers weren’t caught now, they’d meet the same fate in a few days!"

Melody Thorne thought of the order she hid inside her shoe upstairs, hurriedly went up, took it out, luckily, she had put it in the shoe, it hadn’t been taken.

"I don’t want to deal with those brothers, but what do I do if I want to save the Hawthorne Family’s army?" Melody Thorne said irritably, although she wasn’t too keen on the army, she didn’t want to see them obliterated either!

"They were falsely accused of being traitors due to fabricated charges. Spread word that Congressman Gu came here intending to take the army for himself, trying to privatize it—the bigger the rumor, the more scrutiny Gu will face," Jared Quinn said.

"Wait, wait," Melody Thorne interrupted, "I want to follow Congressman Gu, see whom he’s connecting with, maybe I can find a breakthrough!"

"Sis-in-law, can you handle that?" Leon Rivers’ eye twitched, "The people around Congressman Gu are very astute."

"Don’t doubt me!" Melody Thorne’s face dropped.

"Sure."

This time, Jared Quinn didn’t stop her, thinking it was a chance for Melody Thorne to gain experience, even if Gu’s people noticed her, they wouldn’t dare harm her; after all, the Seymour Family’s influence is prominent, and besides, he’s afraid she’ll get too bored and she’s just playing around.

"Really?" Melody Thorne lunged at Jared Quinn, hooked his neck and smothered him with kisses.

"Don’t worry, I’ll make sure they don’t find out, I’ll take Chloe Summers with me!"

Leon Rivers: "...Sis-in-law, no...there’s no need, Chloe’s been feeling unwell these days, you should go alone."

He had just reconciled with Chloe Summers and was thinking about how to take their relationship further and enjoy some couple’s time!

"Hey, Chloe, do you have time?" Melody Thorne had already dialed Chloe Summers’ phone.

"I do, I do!" Chloe answered especially promptly.

"Is your health okay?"
