Chapter 600
At Lotus Village. Olivia and Jake were seated in the car. Looking at the scenery out of the window which was as beautiful as paradise, both Olivia and Jake felt very excited.
Suddenly, Jake spotted a few figures that seemed out of place among the enchanting scenery.
They were foreigners.
To be precise, they were foreigners from various countries as they had different skin tones.
"Jake, those people are the Blue Crystal Warriors that Isabella had arranged to stay at Lotus Village, am I right?" Olivia asked.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Earlier, Isabella had subdued 18 Blue Crystal Warriors. For the safety of her several masters in Lotus Village, Isabella made them stay at Lotus Village.
At this moment, a few Blue Crystal Warriors were standing by the roadside. Looking out of the car window, Olivia and Jake could feel their heated gaze on their car.
Those who didn't know better would have thought of them as bandits who were blocking their way.
Jake lowered the car window. A sexy and valiant lady who seemed to be their leader smiled friendly at them and greeted, "Hello! We have been waiting patiently for your arrival and will show you the way in. The two elderly gentlemen are very happy to see that you have returned."
Jake and Olivia got out of the car.
This place where they are now was not far from their residence. It was not far to travel on foot.
They could also better appreciate the scenery around them if they got out of the car.
Claire and the others sized them up, before looking at Olivia. Claire praised, "Your eyes are really beautiful."
The people from the Lockwood family had sapphire-colored eyes, which were different from the Wecian who had blue-colored eyes. Their eyes were a deep blue color which was a characteristic of an Eacian beauty. If one were to look into their eyes, one would think that their sapphire-colored eyes resembled an ancient mysterious blue jewel.
"Thank you for the compliment. You look beautiful too.' Olivia replied.
"My name is Claire. How is Mrs. Lockwood?" Claire asked.
"Isabella's fine. She's going to hold her wedding soon," Olivia said.
Claire nodded. "We're aware of it. When the time comes, well also attend Mrs. Lockwood's wedding."
A hint of reverence flashed across Claire's eyes.
Olivia noticed this and could not help but sigh in her heart. Some people just had the ability and charisma to make others respect them and submit to them.
Although Isabella had picked up many skills during the five years that she had stayed in Lotus Village, Olivia couldn't help but ask herself.
"On the other hand, what if it was someone else who was in Lotus Village?
"If it was another person who was in Lotus Village, would they be able to grasp the opportunities that were placed before them?
"Even if they were to grab hold of the opportunity, how much would they be able to learn?
"Hence in conclusion, not everyone is as capable as Isabella."
When Olivia Lockwood thought of this, she felt both honored and proud.
Claire and the others led them forward. Not long after, they saw a white furry ball poking its head out of the bushes by the roadside.
The white furry ball might have caught sight of Jake, whom it had not seen for a long time. Its big dark eyes stared unblinkingly in their direction.
It tried its best to raise its head and look in the direction where Jake was.
Almost immediately, Olivia smiled and said, "This can't be Witty-Whitey, right?"
"Could this be Witty-Whitey, whom Betty and Ricky had mentioned to be very timid and did not dare to play with the black panther? Olivia wondered.
Looking at the furry white ball in front of her, Olivia could not help but giggle. "Aren't you making things difficult for a Pomeranian if you were to ask him to play with a black panther?" Olivia thought to herself as she tried her best not to laugh.
However, Olivia was feeling very touched and said, "Jake, did it recognize you?"
Jake's facial expression changed subtly. They were getting closer and closer to Whitey. Whitey moved as well and leaped forward twice.
For a moment, Olivia thought that Whitey was going to leap into Jake's embrace. However at the next moment...
"Woof!"
"Woof, woof, woof!"
"Woof, woof, woof, woof!"
Olivia was rendered speechless when she saw Whitey who was a cute white furry ball in her eyes, suddenly emanated a fierce aura just like a huge wolf.
Olivia looked at Jake in puzzlement.
Olivia thought to herself, "Could it be that this isn't Witty-Whitey?"
Just as Olivia was contemplating the identity of the dog, Olivia heard Claire say, "Oh my goodness, Witty-Whitey had always been easy to get along with. It's simply a cutie pie! I've never seen it so fierce before."
Claire who was standing beside them commented.
Olivia said, "It's really Witty-Whitey?"
"Yeah, it has a good temper and never barks so loudly without any reason," Claire said.
After hearing what Claire had said, Olivia was at a loss for words. So, how did Jake provoke Witty-Whitey and offended it?" Olivia looked at Jake as she pondered.
Faced with Olivia's suspicious gaze, Jake's face smoothed into a poker face, but he was feeling a little depressed in his heart.
"Witty-Whitey!' Jake chided.
Witty-Whitey's barking paused. Immediately after, Witty-Whitey took a small step back with its short legs before leaping forward and letting out an even more intense and high-pitched bark.
Its eyes, which were as round as black grapes, were filled with hatred. It was as though Witty-Whitey had met with its enemy.
Feeling extremely embarrassed, Jake bent down and reached out with his large hands. Jake caught hold of Witty-Whitey who did not manage to escape in time and lifted it up.
Witty-Whitey was lifted up by Jake, who had his detestable hand wrapped around the scruff of its neck.
"Aw!" Furious, Witty-Whitey opened its mouth and tried to bite Jake's arm.
Jake sneered coldly and said, "Ha! Bella isn't here now. There's no one who is going to back you up!
After hearing Jake's words, Witty-Whitey froze and stopped biting Jake.
Witty-Whitey slowly retracted its sharp white teeth and let out a dissatisfied grunt.
Drooping its head, Witty-Whitey exuded an aura of despair.
Olivia was surprised at Witty-Whitey's behavior. "It can actually understand you?" Olivia asked.
Jake snorted coldly and said, Witty-Whitey was a troublemaker since young. It accidentally ate Bella's bug once. At that time, everyone thought that all hope was lost and we couldn't save Witty-Whitey. Unexpectedly, it survived the ordeal.
"After that incident, it became cleverer and even more mischievous.'
"That's amazing!" Olivia exclaimed.
Looking at how Jake was holding Witty-Whitey, Olivia couldn't help but said, "Jake, you're too rough on it. Let me hold it."
When Witty-Whitey heard Olivia's words, its two furry ears immediately perked up. Its black eyes which were as round as grapes lit up as it looked at Olivia with glistening tears in its eyes. Witty-Whitey also moved its little paws, wanting to jump into Olivia's arms.
However, Jake tucked Witty-Whitey into his arms and said in disdain, "Olivia, don't look at how small it is. It's actually very heavy. You'll feel tired if you were to hold it."
After saying that, Jake even lifted Witty-Whitey, as if he was trying to get a feel of its weight.
Witty-Whitey immediately rolled its eyes. It was so angry that it opened its mouth again, attempting to bite Jake.
Seeing that Jake was reluctant to let go of Witty-Whitey, Olivia did not insist. Instead, Olivia asked curiously, "Jake, how did you offend Witty-Whitey? It doesn't seem to be very friendly with you."
Jake paused for a moment before replying, "It's not something of a big deal. It's just that Witty-Whitey had once tried to force itself on another dog. Hence, I suggested to Bella that she should arrange to have sterilization done for Witty-Whitey. Who would have known that Witty-Whitey would have heard it? Since then, it had borne a grudge on me."
Olivia was speechless.
"Who wouldn't hold a grudge after hearing what had happened? It must have been offended and had a deep grudge against Jake!"
