My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 272

At least, I didn't think Andrea would be willing to ask Hendrix to be her child's step-father. Instead, she would want him to be her child's natural father.

After passing through the cobblestone walking path and going up several levels of steps, we entered the luxurious Granger manor.

It wasn't a long way from the car, but I was already a little tired. So, I had to stop to catch my breath.

Suddenly, a dark shadow lunged at me, and it frightened me. I shrieked in fear.

Hendrix's was quick, kicking it away before it could reach me.

It was only after I regained my senses from the initial shock that I realized it was Irvin's Tibetan mastiff. Truth be told, I was a little surprised to see it so aggressive. It didn't seem this hostile the last time I saw it lying at Irvin's feet.

I wondered what was different this time around.

With one kick from Hendrix, the Tibetan mastiff was knocked to the ground. Perhaps Hendrix had kicked it too hard, it kept whining while still lying on the ground.

Hearing the disturbance, the Grangers rushed out from the manor. Irvin saw the Tibetan mastiff that was lying on the floor, and his brows immediately knitted together. His gaze fell upon Hendrix and said, "Mr. Roberts, I believe this is your doing?"

Irvin was obviously angry.

Hendrix narrowed his eyes at Irvin, and he said in a deep and piercingly cold voice, "I'm so sorry if I hurt your dog. But I have to protect my wife!"

Without saying anything, Irvin's gaze fell upon me. Still frightened from the attack earlier, trembling, I hid behind Hendrix, and I avoided Irvin's eyes when I noticed he was looking at me. I knew I should have said something to ease the tension, but I couldn't even speak a word.

Nerissa followed behind Irvin in high heels. After glimpsing at the Tibetan mastiff on the ground, she turned her eyes to me. She was smart, so instantly, she knew what had happened.

She hurried over to me and held my arm. Scanning me from my head to toes, she asked, "Are you startled? Why are your hands shaking so badly? Maybe we should go to the hospital."
