“Yes, Mrs. Hilton. That’s all there is to it. Actually the best for an
Eskimo dog.”
“Okay, I see.”
After feeding Hum, Debbie took it for a walk in the garden. She had also missed out on her running, so
she took this opportunity for that.
The street lights on both sides of the cobble-path were all on, brightening up the whole garden. The
manor looked even more gorgeous under the colorful Lights. However, being alone with only a dog by
her side made Debbie feel a little bit scared. The rustling and whispering of trees added to her fear.
As she was lost in a trance, she didn’t hold the dog leash tight in her hand, so Hum got a chance and
ran away all of a sudden. In a split second, Humpletely disappeared from her sight!
Looking at her empty right hand which had been holding a dog leash a moment ago, she sighed
helplessly. ‘You cunning dog!
“Hum, don’t run away! Wait for me!” Debbie shouted as she picked up her pace and ran along the path.
She was concerned that the naughty dog would damage the nts or even turn the whole garden
upside down
When Carlos came back to the manor, he didn’t find Debbie in the house, so he anxiously called her at
once, only to find that her phone was left on the table in the living room.
He then called the security guard on duty who told him Debbie had taken the dog for a walk in the
garden.
When he found Debbie in the garden, he saw her ring at Hum while gasping for air. She begged,
“Hum, please, don’t run again. Let me hold your leash, okay? Just for a while, please… Hey! Don’t
dodge me!
Come on. What’s so good for you if I’m exhausted to death? Huh?”
But Hum didn’t listen to her. It kept dodging Debbie’s touch, giving her no chance to get close.
Just as she was about to lose her patience, a cold and stern voice suddenly came.
“Hum!”
The dog darted toward the direction of the voice. Debbie turned around to find a smiling Carlos only a
few meters away. With a simple order, the dog lunged at Carlos, who immediately grabbed hold of its
leash to keep it under control.
Watching on, Debbie got angry. She protested between gritted teeth,
“Carlos, can you imagine how much time I’ve had to run after Hum?
That’s so unfair.
I bet it was a she. Opposite sexes attract each other, right? I’d be jealous and use her ofpeting
with me over your love.” Carlos arched an eyebrow.
Debbie paused. ‘What did I say? Did I say…Carlos and a dog attract each other?’ Realizing her
impulsive words, she held back herughter and took to her heels after saying, “Was I wrong?”
Carlos patted Hum on the head and ordered, “Catch her!”

To which Hum darted out like an arrow and ran after Debbie, while
Carlos slowly tagged along. It didn’t take him long to catch up with
Debbie. The dog yfully snapped at her trouser. He pulled her into his arms and asked with affected
seriousness, “You thought you’d outrun both of us? And who ispeting with you over my love?”
