Kai caressed his youngest wife's smooth hand without noticing the hint of sadness in Erica's eyes. "Go and call Master Iker," he ordered in a deep voice.
Then he smiled at Layne and Cheyenne, "Why don't you two take a look around? There's a small zoo in the backyard that might be interesting."
The Todd family not only owned an entire mansion complex on top of a mountain and even built their own zoo.
They agreed on this proposal before Adrian led them to the backyard while chatting casually, "Layne, you don't have to be too formal with Mr. Todd."
"I know."
"By the way, does Cheyenne like animals? There are many birds and beasts on this hill that she can see later."
Soon, Cheyenne arrived at Kai's mini zoo. It was a lush forest with small paths made of pebbles leading to different areas. A two-meter high iron fence surrounded the area, containing giraffes, lions, leopards and more. White peacocks were spreading their feathers while turkeys roamed around.
In the midst of this park stood a green cabin that caught Cheyenne's attention. "What's inside?" she asked curiously.
Adrian smiled mysteriously with a hint of kindness on his face as he reached into the glass window with his wrinkled hand. Two faint hissing sounds could be heard as if some animal was spitting venom.
Soon after, a flexible green snake started wriggling from Adrian's fingertips followed by a red snake with its entire body glowing red. The two snakes twisted around Adrian's arm.
"Hiss..." The two little snakes swam all the way up to Adrian's shoulder and raised their triangular heads high up while staring at Cheyenne coldly just like they were looking at the prey, elegantly flicking out their tongues.
Looking at the color and pattern of these two snakes, Cheyenne could tell that they were both highly poisonous...
The Todd family actually kept poisonous snakes which might bite others as pets.
"These two snakes are Master Davon's beloved pets. They're usually fed with lean beef," Adrian explained.
The little snakes obediently crawled back into their nest after Adrian patted their heads.
Cheyenne was amazed at the rich's unique hobbies, even their pets were unusual.
"By the way, there is a horse stable ahead. Do you both know how to ride? You can give it a try," Adrian suggested.
Davon also enjoyed horse racing, so he had set up a stable at home. He raised rare horses from the Western Regions and occasionally invited friends to go for rides. These horses were also used in his gambling business and made him quite a bit of money.
The wide-open horse track looked spacious with lush green grass and several servants walking horses around in pairs or threesomes. In the distance, Cheyenne noticed an attractive figure.
The man appeared to be around twenty-five or twenty-six years old, standing at over six feet tall, with long and powerful limbs.
Dressed in a red and white riding attire, he looked exceptionally handsome. The feather on his hat swayed with the breeze.
He held the reins in his hand, and with a squeeze of his long legs, the snow-white stallion took off at lightning speed.
"Clip-clop, clip-clop..."
The sound of hooves grew louder as they approached.
