Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 71

Ian Raymond contemplated shooing the dog away, but then he noticed the white dog barking fiercely at a couple passing by, possible employees from the nearby office building. They were with a child who was scared to tears by the dog's barking. The lady pulled her child behind her, staring angrily at Ian.

"What's your deal? Walking your dog without a leash? That's really irresponsible. What if your dog had bitten my child? Owning a dog comes with responsibilities!"

Her husband recognizing Ian's air of sophistication and the luxurious car parked behind him, quickly tugged at his wife, urging her to stop. "Alright, enough."

They couldn't afford to offend someone like this.

The lady, still concerned for her child, didn't care about Ian's status at that moment. She huffed while wiping her child's tears,

"Think you're a big shot just because you're rich? Such a lack of manners!"

Ian frowned and retorted, "This isn't my dog."

As soon as he said this, the dog wagged its tail at him and started circling around him.

Ian's eyes narrowed, his face turning serious.

After wiping her child's tears, the lady retorted, "And you're still saying it's not your dog?!"

Jeff squatted down and checked the dog tag hanging around the dog's neck.

"There's a phone number on this tag. The dog probably escaped from home. I'll call its owner right away."

Recognizing their sincerity, the lady didn't cause a scene and left with her child. Jeff promptly made the call.

Maja Pennyfeather had been looking for Coco outside but to no avail. She was imagining all sorts of scenarios, the worst being Coco getting caught by dog thieves. Coco had a dog tag, so if a passerby found her, they would probably call her. Just as she was lost in her thoughts, her phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello," Maja answered, sounding anxious.

"Hi, are you the owner of this dog? It's with us right now. Do you know Raymond Tower? We're outside the car park of Raymond Tower."

In this city, everyone knows about Raymond Tower.
