Chapter 519
Linus had high EQ—even though today was just a small party among close friends, knowing that Michael
and Sophia were trying to conceive, he put in the effort in preparing some special snacks and drinks for
him.
Not only so, but the three bowls that he brought over were all different: two of them were of blue-and-
white porcin, and the other had some pink bubble designs.
As such, Linus reckoned that Michael and Daniel would definitely go for the porcin ones as the other
one seemed feminine; it even had a spoon of a different shape.
Of course, that was the one Linus prepared for Sophia, who was having such a good time and had
forgotten about drinking anything. Since Michael was here, Linus thought it would not be culturally
appropriate for him to bring her a bowl of herbal soup that would aid with her pregnancy.
As such, Linus used a different spoon to hint at Michael for him to save it for Sophia.
Michael was still deep in thought when he was slowly drinking the soup with a spoon. Not long after he
sat down, two big orange cats jumped into his arms.
He looked at the two orange cats, which reminded him of the cats that he had at home. He then realized
that those were indeed his as all four of his orange cats were here—two of them were in his arms while
the other two were circling Linus as if they were dogs.
At this point, Linus was conversing with a foreigner, and the moment he sat down, one of the cats
jumped onto hisp. Following that, Nathan showed up with the Persian cat in his arms; he walked up to
Linus before sitting next to him.
While Michael was drinking the herbal soup, he sensed a scorching gaze on him. So, he looked up and
saw that Stanley’s husky was attentively staring at him and the bowl in his hands.
Feeling somewhat nervous, Michael quickly waved the husky off. “Go away. Stupid dog. Go away!”
Even though the husky left, not long after that, Michael saw Linuse out of his kitchen with two dog
bowls with freshly prepared dog meals in them. The moment the husky saw that, it ran toward Linus.
Simultaneously, Nathan’s Samoyed puppy and Linus’ dog also joined in. It was quite a sight to see those
three dogs eating together.
Linus’ dog was a mutt that did not quite match its owner. Word had it that it used to be a stray dog, and
ording to Sophia, Linus adopted him through some posts on Twitter.
At this moment, Nathan knelt in front of the dogs and watched them eat, asionally licking his lips.
Upon seeing that, Judge waved his tail and scooted over, leaving a spot in front of the dog bowl for
Nathan.
Linus patted Judge and knelt to almost the same height as Nathan. While he was patting Judge, he even
exined to Nathan about the different breeds of dogs.
The sight of this made Michael feel extremely uneasy. Linus had only appeared in their lives not long
ago, but he had alreadye to know Sophia, Nathan, Michael, and even every single cat and dog that
they had. On the flipside, Michael knew nothing about him.
To Michael, Linus was a private person who would never tell anyone about his family and background.
No matter how much Michael tried to elicit that information from him, his efforts were never fruitful.
This person was eerily private, and it did not help that Michael liked to think the worst of everything.
The reason Michael sold this ce to Linus was so that he could try and make him talk about Fass, but
he regretted that decision now as not only was he unable to extract any information on Fass, he was also
getting more involved in Linus’ life.
At this moment, Sophia happily came up to Michael and said, “Linus told me he has prepared something
for me!”
Right away, she saw the bowl of herbal soup on the coffee table that was still piping hot. She then carried
the cat that was in Michael’s arms and began drinking the herbal soup. After finishing it, she even helped
herself with a second bowl.
This whole time, Michael was still deep in thought about the question earlier.
After the orange cat left Michael, it yawned before stretching its body while strutting around in the living
room as if it lived here. It even habitually went to the cat bowl to get food.
It had only been a couple of days, but since when did Michael’s cat be so familiar with Linus’ ce?
So many things that were taking ce now made Michael feel uneasy.
All of a sudden, he heard a beautiful piano sound from the living room. It was Linus.
Linus’ piano skills were much better than Natasha’s, and he was ying and singing a song that he
composed.
After finishing the herbal soup, Sophia’s tummy felt a lot better. At this point, she pulled Michael’s arm
over and ced it around her waist. She then quietly sat there in his embrace while listening to Linus’s
performance.
Meanwhile, Michael was still deep in thought when Sophia’s fingers were restlessly tapping his back.
Then, Michael tilted his head to look at her dancing fingers—they were almost on the same beat as the
notes that Linus yed.
This was perhaps the mysterious telepathy between twins. Ever since Linus showed up, Sophia’s daily
routine had changed slightly.
For example, she had been up at 6 AM for the past two days, telling Michael that she was too thirsty to
continue sleeping. In the past, she would not be up until at least half-past six. Michael identally heard
from Stanley that Linus would get up at 6 AM every morning to drink water, without fail.

Another example was that Sophia used to be able to stay up until midnight, but recently, she could not
stay up past 11 PM and would get extremely sleepy by then. Based on Michael’s observationtely, the
lights at Linus’ ce would go off on time at 11 PM every night.
Twins positively affected each other, and the closer they were with each other, the bigger the effect was.
In the same way, Sophia had also influenced Linus’ habits recently. For instance, Linus would never eat
anything spicy before this, but right now, he had found his love for spicy food. Also,tely, Linus had
been sharing news about Taylor Murray in his IG stories.
After he was done ying, everyone there gave him a round of apuse. Then, some of them started a
new game.
“Uncle Michael,e join us for ‘Truth or Dare’…”
Stanley was waving at Michael in the crowd. Even though Michael was reluctant to go over, Sophia did
not give him a choice and dragged him all the way there.
Seeing that Linus was also there, Michael decided to go, thinking that perhaps he might be able to elicit
something from Linus through this game.
After everyone came, all ten of them sat around the table, and the game started.
Stanley’spany had recently made many game apps, and one of them was this game called ‘Truth or
Dare’. He then proceeded to assign a code name to everyone before taking out his tablet and cing it
in the center of the table.
Opening the ‘Truth or Dare’ app, he then put in the number of participants and hit the ‘Start’ button. Right
away, the indicator on the screen began to spin. After a few seconds, it stopped and pointed at one of
the code names.
“Number 3!” Stanley shouted.
Sarah timidly raised her hand, looking worried. She knew well about the app that herpany designed
and the crazy questions that were in there.
Seeing the terrified look on her face, Harry was annoyed.
She’s so bold and violent on the Inte, but look at her right now—what a hypocrite!
Every time he saw Sarah he would always mess with her bangs, and this exined her unkempt hair
today.
Stanley proceeded to tap on the app, and a question was picked by the system: “Please kneel in front of
No. 9, hug their leg, stick your face on their leg, and call them ‘Daddy’.”
Pfft—
Linus burst intoughter right away.
